songs as well, and it is a soggy forecast for you. z lanes. what slant on saturday, grab your umbrella see soon ah with ah ah

hello, i'm sorry, i'm no my the welcome to the news. our lie from london coming up. hotel, we're one to hear a pool, recessive beginner set to be released from prison off to the government commute, his 25 year sentence on terrorism charges. shes in deutscher bank full sharply ending the day down 8 and a half percent off to dragging down all the major european banks. emanuel micron says he'll price ahead with his pension reforms, even as ongoing protests force him to postpone a visit. my britons can charles and ah, where israel's pri minutes to goes, protest follow hundreds heck old benjamin netanyahu as he meets his british counterparts. ah, hello and welcome to the news. our full recessive beginner is the man who saved

more than 1200 lives during their a want and genocide. he said to be released from prison. saturday. he selling a 25 year sentence on terrorism charges of ties to an organisation opposed to wind and president polk a gummy that's now been commuted following intense diplomacy by the united states. this is a beginner, was manager of a hotel in kigali during the 994 genocide. his story was told in the hollywood film hotel. rwanda is not web airports ruined. his government has said paul recessive beginner will be released from jail. 2 years ago. he was sentenced to 25 years on terrorism charges. he refused to participate in the court proceedings, rights groups and observers said the trial was a sham because i did not have household to the old. how the neutral did what the government? because it does not. it doesn't talk to criticism and it showed the right to

the, to the system. awful rhonda, i'll be the sheep. that's why the, the system i've been fighting for for human rights and wonderful democracy in wanda . and he had been taught to become a victim excited nearly 20. earlier, he was made famous by the hollywood film hotel. rwanda. he's credited with saving more than 1200 lives during the 1994 genocide. more than half a 1000000 tutsis and moderate hutus were killed by who to militia during the civil war. the rwandan patriotic front, led by poor cami, won the war and took power. company later became president and recessive, again, became his critic. when the government accused him of supporting an armed group wanted to overthrow the government, we have maintained serious concerns about this case, especially as regards political violence. but all groups including those

that are led by people operating from develop countries. but we have now agreed on no fundamental principles and we're able to to, to move forward with the humanitarian relief recess. a beginner has belgian citizenship. and was a resident of the raf 3 years ago. he was deceived into boarding a plane into by and later repaired and rwanda's capital kick only in handcuffs rights group say he was kidnapped from under. government says his sentence has been commuted following a presidential. pardon malcolm web al jazeera. my colleague steve clemens is a host of outage areas at the bottom line. now he interviewed are one and president polk army twice in recent months. and he has more on the government's decision.

well, a remarkable change. the turn of events in december i interviewed president, could guy, may you said he would not be bullied into making a decision and that it would it take an invasion to get paul recess of begin out of prison in march in doha, he, i asked him, i said, how's that position going? and he said, you know, sometimes you have to forgive the unforgivable and i got goosebumps on the back of my neck. i said, wow, they are going to release paul recess. begin. and then i said to him on stage it in the interview, if may, if you make that decision, will you give me a call? and they did. and so i think that the united states, with a lot of assistance from cutter was able to get to an understanding with or wanda about how to get paul recess begin it in 20 others released without removing or pardoning his conviction. so the conviction remains on the books, his sentence is commuted. he's going to go to doha soon,

and then we'll move to the united states to reside there. what seems to be the key element is a change in stance. from the u. s. government about how it was approaching, present couldn't a and so rather than raining recess a given as a wrongly detain person that's invalidating the legitimacy of his conviction. i think the white house, my sources tell me the white house reached out to find a different path that would not undermine the solvency of rwanda as concerns about security and terrorism. and the death of civilians that they felt was tied to some recessive beginners associations. us dogs have closed higher after a week's not to friday session on the heels of the sell off in european bang, led by deutsche bank shares in the german giant, close down 8 and a half percent major ongoing fears of a crisis in the banking sector. the german chancellor shows is trying to reassure

europeans that the bank is profitable. i'm joined by economists francis coppola from rochester in the u. k. and all the week of turmoil with shares and the regions biggest bangs continuing that fall. what is driving this fear and anxiety in the market? well, i think it is feronda anxiety. oh, i mean we haven't really. yes. kind of taken on board. what's happy with our credit suisse and u. b. s. am you seen central banks continued to raise interest rates? and today, i, we've seen that spying out to deutsche bank. why deutsche bank? well, partly because deutsche bank has historically been quite a wobbly bank, a long history of problems which has been attempting to recover from. but, you know, in financial markets, once you've acquired reputation for, for not being too sound, it tends to stick. and so when people are looking around to see who's going to be

next, they tend to look, look on the banks that have been modeling for a long time. so in europe, that would mean deutscher bank. so that's part of the problem. and also this morning, deutsche bank did something which ordinarily would have been a good thing. it's a be paid one of its bonds early. and normally that's a good sign. say, yeah, okay, we've got some money. we can pay this off a bit like you pay your credit card off. but in the circumstances, and because credit suisse had done something quite similar a few days before it failed, people took it out as a bad sign and panicked. so so me, it was to me, there is a that it's just fear and anxiety feeling on itself. this is an irrational market that there is no reason to actually worry about the fundamental fundamentals of deutscher banks business. yeah, i don't honestly think that there's much wrongly don't to banks business right now . i, i've looked to this account, so i looked at it, it's financials,

i'm not seeing it, but i remember what it was like in the past. and i suspect do what's happened is people are going, it's always deutsche bank and, and therefore, assuming that it's going to be the next dominant of all because it has historically been been quite on quite shaky on sound. i think honestly think that's all is why didn't a deal? why didn't the credits are cbs deal work that was supposed to stop this money? i think what happened was the way it was done because i'm rather than the normal way you resolve banks where bar where you why pap shareholders. and then you look to see how much money is left and therefore and then you reimburse credit. credit is in a strict order of seniority, and on this occasion they actually pay shareholders some money and then wiped out completely a particular group of bondholders and who should have been more senior to the

equity holders. and that has really upset a lot of people is it's, it's basically so we don't know where we stand. now. we don't know whether our, our, our credit is safe or not. and although some central banks, notably the b and the bank of england both said we would honor the existing ranking . i think people are really not too sure what's going to happen and what this means for bank resolution in future. how is this going to impact the wider economy? well, the most immediate effects of this kind of turmoil in, in banking is usually the bank stop putting back on lending. and that immediately means that man should conditions start to tight. not if a similar effect rating interest rates. so you could argue that the interest rate rises from the c, b, and bank of england may have been a mistake, depending on how much banks pull back lending. they may have inadvertently over

tightened. in which case that can trigger recession, which isn't really what we want. thank you very much. francis coppola joining us pleasure. we moved to france now in protests against the government's bill to raise a retirement age. a force, the postponement of a state visit by the british monarch for enterprise into manual micron says it would lack common sense for king charles to visit in the middle of protests. hundreds of police were injured. more than a 1000000 people demonstrated around the country on thursday. at asher butler reports now from paris, streets littered with burnt garbage and broken windows. as the clean up began, the day after a pension reform protest in the city descended into chaos. paris his mare said she understood people's frustrations, but criticized some of their methods. utah school called in the violence that we

condemn that i condemn, distracts attention from the main issue which is that most french people want the withdrawal of the pension reform. oh, some protesters and police clashed in several french cities overnight. police union said more than $400.00 officers in the country were injured. thing charles was due to visit paris in just a few days, but seems like this and more planned protests upon to release a palace to postpone the trip. at any you summit in brussels, prison, macro said the king would be welcomed. another time you mockery on does have double sauce. we would have liked common sense if we had held a state visit for his majesty the king and the queen consort in the midst of the protests. and given the esteem and the friendship, we feel for his majesty the king and the queen consort and the british people. i made the decision to call him this morning and tell him what the situation was. trade unions want emmanuel, my quarters, scrap the pension reform. they say it's unfair and will hurt poor workers,

but mcgraw says it's necessary to sustain the retirement system. a stand off that seems unlikely to him soon. it's after butler al jazeera paris, you at the knees, our life from london is, was still to bring you on the program to afraid to go home rights group, say the mere mom military's plan. to repatriate wrangler refugees is nothing more than a p. r campaign. and rescued from russia, dozens of ukrainian children are reunited with their families. ah, ah, now israel's attorney general has accused the prime minister benjamin netanyahu of breaking a conflict of interest law by getting directly involved in his government's judicial overall plan. while standing trial for corruption. lesson i was pledged to proceed with the changes that would give the government sway and choosing judges and limit

the supreme court's power to strike down laws. his rated leader is on an official visit to the united kingdom, where he's been meeting with the prime minister. wish he soon acts under the protest is gathered outside downing street, his arrival critic say the court changes would endanger civil liberties and turn israel into a dictatorship. joe hall was, are the demonstrations there at downing street. the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu knows that where he goes these days, protests follow, and london is no exception. pro palestinian protested, but also of course, anti netanyahu protest as people like these who believe with the policies of his right wing out to a nationalist, helper orthodox government, is leaving the country towards what they described as autocracy. this is not an older version. this is the end of the democracy. i think there is no legitimacy for what they're trying to do. he came here to london to re

focus international attention on iran. something he believes isn't actually central issued. israel. he wanted prime minister soon acts to join a co initiative, countries that would work against iran deference to expand its nuclear program. what he didn't want to talk about under any circumstances is what these people very much do want to talk about controversial plans. and his government has to push push through judicial reform in israel. that they say is an abuse of power that would undermine the judiciary. and the supreme court that would have the power to the government to appoint judges. i'm that personally, they say is essentially just a way of healing him prime minister netanyahu from the west consequences of corruption charges against it. and you cannot have a democracy without the law legislation that has been proposed to not a digital report. it is the destruction of the legal system, as we know of history will not forgive you read one banner here and the crowd

chance shame. benjamin netanyahu was welcomed inside downing street, much less so just outside donor hall, al jazeera london, israeli army reserves. pilots have joined the demonstration against that government by refusing to report the active juicy israel's army chief has won prime minister netanyahu that his proposed overall could affect the readiness of the army for any security developments. and ron con has more details from occupied east jerusalem. here and the number is actually far larger than we thought some 200 pilots and now decided that they wanted to show up to do to. now that's actually quite crucial because roles apple actually runs on those with the pilots. ok to have a massive effect. we're also learning object of the lead intelligence unit, be $200.00 about $100.00 members of the unit are also decided to join the project. and they're not gonna turn full duty on, not having a mass on intelligence gathering for these rallies,

but then you have to put that in context with the large reserve it's, it's really all new service, some to some, $10000.00 people who signed a letter saying that they will sign up for service now. the prime minister made an address on television benjamin, as he spoke, to me saying that he was going to push these 3, but he's willing to listen to the opposition that hasn't had the effect, but he thought it might help calming it. things down. indeed, the numbers are getting larger and larger by the day they're all big process happening across is relative. busy the biggest ones happening in television, hot and real, expecting a boss amount of people come out onto the street because of his tone of voice address not going far enough to appease the protesters, no development the final day a week from public carrying into israeli rights abuses has wrapped up at the united nations in geneva. the commission is examining the allegations of both israeli and

palestinian authorities and focusing on the shrinking space for civil society. it's high from human rights activists, john listen, lawyers who've been subjected all to a witness attacks, restrictions and harris meant by the authorities and other entities. part of the inquiry focused on the killing of al jazeera john this trina black lab, who was shot by israeli forces in the occupied west bank last year. i'll just there are big jerusalem bureau chief, bullied on murray, testified, eye witness accounts and independent investigations have concluded that the guns are aimed at actually, and the voters came from the soldiers and that the journalists were deliberately targeted despite winning, distinctive breast size on the list. and elements. there is data. bruce isn't, is there any bullies at tags?

the mourners who attended, beating them with that deliberate targeting of journalists doing the conflict constitutes a world crime. the u. s. s. canada as strikes on targets in easton, syria, reportedly killing 11. probably iranian fighters, pentagon says your operation came off to an ron yelling drone attack. the us led coalition bass has to count on thursday. 5 american soldiers were injured and a contract was killed. the pads against the building it struck was completely destroyed and the casualties are being assessed. these precision strikes were intended to protect and defend us personnel, and the u. s. took proportionate and deliberate action intended to limit the risk of escalation and minimize casualties. as secretary austin said in his statement, no group will strike our troops with impunity again, secretary austin, along with the department of defense oper,

our thoughts and prayers to the family and colleagues of the american contractor who was killed. and with those who are wounded in the attack, our forces deployed in syria continue to conduct their important mission and support of the international coalition to ensure the enduring defeat of isis. we've got to afghan as don. now dozens of people believe to be missing off the heavy flooding there. in the northern province of balk, at least 300 homes have been washed away. roads and farm lines have been destroyed before as you say, the destruction involved comes a huge financial loss and more rain is expected in the coming days. now to me and more government there is told al jazeera that it'll start the repatriation of wrangell refugees. in the middle of april and for the 1st time, officials say those who return will be allowed back to the original homes. but rights groups have dismissed. this is nothing more than a p r campaign. while many displaced wrangler skeptical that guarantees from the military that they are skeptical about guarantees from the military. they say they

are simply too scared to return from nape at all times. chang as this report, a rare opportunity to speak to me. i am a military leader and the man whose become the public face of the genta major generals meant don't. they say they have good news. the pilot project to allow the ranking minority who said in 2017 to come home, i'll come on thursday. we will accept them back after that, we will processed them from the camps for a maximum of 2 weeks. then we will relocate them to the original villages. we have already prepared security for them. a group of officials crossed from jamante bangladesh last week to discuss the plan with the ring community. previous attempts repair creation who failed, in part because the mere morrow authorities would not allow them to return to their original homes. now they seem at least be showing more concern the

government officials from me and my oppression to facilitate we pet ration. and it will enquire about our welfare and how we came here. the situation in the camps in bangladesh goes from bad to worse. this fire at the beginning of march left 12000 people without shelter. and the un says the international community is failing to provide funding for even facing food supplies. but for many ra hanger, safety is their main concern. no, no you read and yes, we guarantee the security. we have already made the preparations to make them safe for the 1st part. we are going to accept between 1000 maximum of 1500. throughout the interview, how the, the spokesman, referred to the wrangler, has been goal, is denying the long history as citizens of mamma. and many people will be skeptical of security guarantees from the military. in 2017 tens of thousands of wrangle were

killed at hundreds of villages burned to the ground. in a military crackdown un described as textbook example of ethnic cleansing. there is one very big difference between now and 2017. when more than a 1000000 ra hanger fled the country, the army that was accused of perpetrating atrocities against them as now seized control. and the crimes that we saw perpetrated against the ra hangar. being seen all across the country. tony cheng al jazeera. ma'am? we're angry. human rights activists and also asked me to join me live now from vancouver. and you've have really a detailed knowledge and expertise of this matter happened previous failed attempts to convince wrangler to go back. they simply too scared to do so under this deal. where would they be returning to given that many of their homes and villages have been burned to the ground and totally destroyed?

thank you for having me and, and thank you for that question. very unlikely. i'm the highest unlikely that people are actually going to be able to go back to where they were originally from given the, the general was talking about us and referring to us. it's been golly, there is really no commitment that they're making where they were talking about how you know they're going to process us in the caps for 2 weeks. it could turn very, very well turn into this internment camps situation that happened post 2011 and 12 in fit way. reclined state. i have no confidence. that's this. you know this, this military hunter will actually rehabilitate or treat rowing at any better. the general mean on like the current prime minister, he himself has referred to the situation or the crisis in the violence that has taken place as you know, the unfinished business. and so there's really no hope for a hanger,

even if we get to go back. why do you suppose the generals might agree to something like this? now, after everything this has happened? well, i think if it has very much to do with the sanctions and the business side of things, there seem to be a lot of functions that, that have affected hugely the revenues and the, you know, the money that goes into the general's pocket. and so this is a great pure campaign if they can overturn or reverse sort of affects the genocide that they were the ones perpetrating. obviously it writes violation to co coerce or force any one to move from one place to another. how would something like this work, assuming that there are people that would even consider this? there has been generally a lot of pressure on people in bangladesh and the refugees there have faced

multiple layers of stressors and dire conditions. you know. and again, very recently, world's food program has basically set that are going to lessen the food rations and food rations were never enough to begin with. and so we see this dwindling help from the international community and lots of attention that are focused on, you know, ending the cycle of impunity within burma, me and mar, in the 1st place. and so from all sides, there seem to be this squeezing a brain to, to basically have no other options, but to go back any essentially, as you say, the prolong displacement, interrogating conditions in the camps were forced them into making some very difficult decisions about the future. what about the populate the opinion amongst the wider population in me and more we know that the generals and the regime of mr

. atrocities against the, the rank, how the other people in the country view them right now. i think there's just general consensus across more civilian that you know, the military's willing to do anything to keep themselves in power and through a lot of resistance movement. and a lot of, you know, democratic activities. there seem to be an understanding now that the country will not be the country will not be able to improve without you know, without getting rid of the military or their ideology. and so a lot of my civil society partners and colleagues have basically been able to, you know, get people to understand that we need federal democracy. we need a country that actually will be accepting and welcoming of everyone,

minorities are not ethnic communities or not. and i think that this is, this is the point that, that be international community needs to focus on is to support the resistance movement to get rid of this, you know, military lingering power in order to actually help us. we build help us stabilize this country in the region in order to help you out. all right, thank you very much. asked me all for joining us. thank you very much for having me . not sure. so had for you on the program. talk opposition. say the role gandhi is expelled from india's parliament after his conviction for comments deemed insulting to prime minister render mo d u. s. president joe biden. and candidate just intruder pledge to stand united against the authoritarian regimes. ah,

was some of that exceptional warmth, smart warmth is about to be wiped out across central europe. hey, there are those details right here right now. all has to do with this shower activity that's putting a cap on temperatures as it moves west to east. it will eventually make its way into places like book address over the tail end of the weekend early next week. but those temperatures are coming down at high temperatures across iberia as well, but winds have shifted. so valencia, your temperature is down by about 10 degrees in this early warmth is actually sparked a wildfire too far away from valencia. then look to the north, we've got more pulses of rain coming off the atlantic. so a soggy forecast, once again for the islands of ireland and britain is this next batch of what weather moves in western france, but it's still pulling up mild air, so not too bad. now for a searcy air, more rain up against the border with syria and our earthquake zone, but really right across the la vance. we've got active weather on saturday. let's

pick up this story in africa with the weather in the sir mediterranean. i think showers seem likely for cairo winds will be blustery as well in some big downpours . him is across the gulf of guinea western cape province in south africa. still some showers, but not as bad as it has been over the last few days. enjoy your weekend season. ah, the latest news as it breaks evidence in a place like this, where people say just a few bodies have been recovered compared to the number of people missing with detailed coverage. a government policies are making it difficult for them to export on climate change has also impacted a supply from around the world to their rescue. plants showed their confidence in 1st republic bank, so all sides of which are critical to the functioning of the financial system.

in a post colonial wo. this cause of european imperialism rum deep. nowhere more so than in the democratic republic of congo, where her history still shapes the president of this rule. yet infamous insight through the eyes of a whistleblower. the patriotic military commander. witness presents this comb. go on a jessie hugo lou . ah ah, i'll come back. main stories now. polarization, begin. o's heroism. during the respond and genocide inspired the film hotel, rwanda is to be released from prison after presidential decree. he was sentenced to

25 years on terrorism charges after being tricked into returning from exile. he saved the lives of more than 1200 people. us stalks of closed higher after we start to friday session on the heels of a self among european banks, led by deutscher bank shares in the german giant closed out 8 and a half percent amid ongoing fears of a crisis in the banking sector and violent protest against raising, there were time and age in france, a force that postponement of a state visit by the british monarch present manju microns as it would lack common sense the king charles to visit in the middle of these protests. now a un reports has found dozens of summary killings of ukrainian and russian prisoners of war since russia invaded ukraine last february. it seems that it had no access to prisoners of war held in russia or in russian control pots of ukraine . they did document $48.00 places of internment in those areas and documented

$621.00 case of enforce disappearances, an arbitrary detention by russian security forces, including 5 teenage boys and $91.00 by ukrainian security forces. 90 percent of the $127.00 ukrainians. interviewed reported being tortured and ill treated while in russian detention, including with sexual violence. about half of the russians interviewed, reported abuse. the report also documented the summary execution of 15, ukrainian, and 25 russian prisoners of war. but it had, the findings were greatly influenced by the level of access given to detention facilities and prisoners of war with ukraine, providing full access to official entitlements. site report found that torture in ill treatment was far more common against the ukrainians. the number of documented cases of torture and o treatment during internment in penitentiary facilities is shocking. more than 84

percent endured such mistreatment and attempts re stuff subjected prisoners of war to so called welcome beatings upon their arrival, beat and electrocuted them regularly during and inspections in cells. and while walking them around the facilities, members of the russian federal penitentiary, services, and bows in charge of many places have internment in russian, occupied territory, systematically engaged in such practices against prisoners of war. meanwhile, dozens of ukrainian children are returning to their families off to being held in russian control territory keeps as more than 16000 children have been illegally deported to russia. last week, the international criminal court issued morass, wine for russian president vladimir putin, for allegedly overseeing a practice. moscow denies the allegations or a con reports. i read this young girl says, hi, dad, from abundance butch children for russian controlled territory. there were uniting

in key of a moment who's been until the fighting these children are among dolphins, who've been reunited with their parents. they're working with us for the semester children, our mission, the rescue mission, as we call it ended today. we returned 17 children who were deported to the russian federation. many ukrainian parents and russian controlled areas said they felt pressure to send the children to what they thought was from the camps. but instead they say they were placed with the teach russian patriotism. oh, we went to school because they would call and text my grandmother saying if she didn't send her child to school, they would send me to an orphanage. my grandmother sent me to school. we studied there for about 2 months, maybe less. and then we were told that we can go to a camp for 2 weeks. won't leave me your mother. she was deceived, an intern we were deceived, as well without any signatures. i was asking my mother,

how could they take the child away? i didn't sign. i didn't sign anything. how? my mother told me they entered the house. these big guys came in with assault rifles. it scary, especially when a small 3 year old child is running around it's scary. ukraine's government says morgan, 16000 children, have been deported to russia to be placed in institutions and foster homes, while moscow and 5th it saving ukrainian orphans or unaccompanied maintenance from the horrors of war. last week, the international criminal court issued an arrest warrant for russian president vladimir putin for the illegal deportation of ukrainian children. russia denied the allegations and then issued criminal charges of its own against the i. c. c, for ignoring putin's immunity as head of state under international law, we're backing key. if children who have been reunited with their parents have been promised,

support and counseling while they recover from their ordeal. laura con al jazeera, a u. s. court has had the 1st guilty plea in the case of the assassination of the haitian president jovan ways, or dolph jar a duel haitian chalet and citizen entered the play on 3 charges. on friday. acknowledge she provided money to pay for weapons, food and lodging for all the suspected of shooting noise in 2021. inside haiti itself, rising gang violence is forcing thousands to flee their homes. the un estimates at least 160000 people have been displaced more than 530 killed this year. many of those were during 2 weeks of brutal fighting. in march snipers reported the shop people at random, local groups, a gang now control all of the capital, puerto prince, and more than half the country from up to 2. so the reason i'm leaving is because i'm old. i can't break my heartbeat so fast because they shoot too much. it's got

to the point where i can't, 800 isn't as bad. it's come to this area. quite often they do damage, they kill people, they shoot a lot and they search our homes. they take everything we have in our hand. women have protection, but men done. the gang members kill, burn, set, houses, cause and other things on fire. he was present, joe biden, and canada is just intruder. pledge to stand together against authoritarian regimes . biden is on his 1st official visit to also as president. earlier, he addressed the canadian parliament. within the last hour, the 2 leaders of held a joint press conference where biden was questioned about china and russia's growing closeness. if anything happened, the west has coalesced significantly more. how about the quad? how about japan and the united states in south korea? how about what we've done in terms of august? how about what we, i mean? so i just want to put in perspective,

i don't take it lightly. what japan with china, excuse me, and, and russia doing. and it could get significantly worse. but let's put it in perspective. we are united coalitions. we, we've, united states and canada. a corresponding alan fish had joined us live now in just a hearing those remarks that bios president joe biden trying to shrug off these questions about a grand alliance between russia and china. while he was making the point quite rightly that russia and china have met at 40 times in recent years. and although there has been talk of china providing lethal aid to russia for the war and ukraine, they haven't actually signed any deals that we know of that are in public. and you're biting, believes that by showing his standing literally shoulder to shoulder or with justin to do it again. re emphasizes that the americas stand, the american stand by their allies. but there are tensions in that relationship.

one of the tensions was in the northern border, there is a crossing between new york state and quebec, where a number of undocumented migrants have passed to know it. record numbers going across that border, 40000 in the last year. and the canadians were frustrated with the americans and know they have this agreement, which goes into place at midnight tonight, which says that if these undocumented migrant cross at non authorized border pause, they can be turned back and know the canadians are also taking in $15000.00 additional asylum seekers from central and south america. so the americans think that will ease the pressure on them slightly. there's also tensions to about the spending on defense. for years the americans believed that the canadians have not been putting enough into defense that nori. this to a degree ignored by the canadians, if not ignored, certainly not treated as seriously, but suddenly remember the balloon that came across all of the united states and
