this is a one or 2 global perspectives. me talk to law. will the law with, with neither side, willing to negotiate is the ukraine war becoming a forever war? is america's global leadership, increasingly fragile? what will us politics look like? as we had to the presidential election of 2024, the quizzical look us politics. the bottom line, russia's invasion of ukraine has prompted, traditionally mutual countries to apply for nato membership. austria, however, has shown no interest in joining the alliance. thinking that either you are with us or you against us. this is a very simplified way of looking at the time the austrian foreign minister talks to, well to 0. ah,

2 hotel rolanda hero released haul, was this a beginner, had been serving a 25 year prison sentence for terrorism related charges? ah, i'm 0 then. yeah, it's great to have you with us. this is al jazeera life from door. also coming up today, the u. s in canada agree to close the loophole on immigration that allowed thousands of asylum seekers across the border. ah, deep divisions in israel, weeks of protests against the government now spilling beyond political circles. and a spectacular light show in the sky. the most powerful solar storm in 6 years has hit the earth. ah,

the man who saved more than 1200 lives during their rwandan genocide and inspired the film hotel. rwanda has been released from prison hall, ruthie. sabina was sentenced to 25 years on terrorism related charges 2 years ago. is one of several people who sentences have been commuted after diplomatic efforts . bike a tar and the u. s. barber and go per reports. he served more than a year of a 25 year prison sentence after a rwandan court convicted him on terrorism charges. now paul recess, a beginner, is a free man. 2 years ago, he refused to participate in court proceedings. write scripts and observers set the trial was a sham because also somebody now have household to the old how the nature of their want and the government because it does not. um, it does not order to criticism. and so it is shared the right to the,

to the system, or for wonder of the dictatorship or that's why the, there's something that i've been fighting for human rights and wonderful democracy in rwanda and busy her needs. and for to become fiction rather excite nearly 20 as earlier he became famous when the hollywood film her tal. rhonda told his story, his credited with saving more than 1200 lives during rendezvous 1994 genocide. more than half a 1000000 tutsis and many his were killed by a who to militia during a civil war. the rondon patriotic front led by poor guy may want the war and took power. cook, i'm a late to became president and recess of argona became his critic. rhonda accused him of supporting an armed creep that wanted to overthrow the government. we have maintained or serious concerns about this case, especially as with regards on punk political violence. but i'm groups including

those that are led by people operating from developed countries. but we have a now agreed on no one on, on the fundamental principles. and are we able to, to, to move forward with this sir humanitarian release, recessive. again a has belt and citizenship and was a resident of the u. s. 3 years ago, he was deceived into boarding a plane in to buy and later appeared in wanda's capital kigali in handcuffs. write scripts say he was kidnapped. rwanda's government says his sentence has been commuted after a presidential order. barbara and copa, alto, sarah, us, president joe biden, welcome this news saying quote, false family is eager to welcome him back to the united states and i share their joy. today's good news. you also think that there were wanting governments for making the reunion possible as well as guitar and

u. s. government officials for their work on this. and my colleague steve clemens host developed here is the bottom line has interviewed rwandan, president polk gum a twice in recent months. and he shared what he learned during those interviews. 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 again out of prison in march in doha. he's 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 to 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 at 20 others released without removing

or pardoning his conviction. so the conviction remains on the books, his sentence is commuted. he is 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 stamp, from the u. s. government about how it was approaching president, gama, and so, rather than raining recess a given as a wrongly detained 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 of recessive beginners associations. president biden is warning iran that the u. s . will quote act forcefully to protect americans. the u. s. military carried out

air strikes against iran linked targets in syria. this follows an attack that killed an american contractor and injured 5 soldiers and also grateful for the professionalism. our service members, who are so ably carried out this response. and to make no mistake, united states does not, does not emphasize seek conflict with iran. but be prepared for track forcefully protect our people. that's exactly what happened last night. a bite and made the comments during his 1st official visit the canada as president. among the priority issues, the thousands of migrants who have been crossing into canada from the united states . allan fisher has more it may just be 24 hours, but joe biden is hoping he's accomplished a lot from his 1st official visit to canada since winning the white house at a time when new alliances are being forged elsewhere. this was about showing one of the oldest links in the world is still strong. both sides are putting the best spin

the can on the visit, which brought a face to face, sit down and an address to the canadian parliament. americans and canadians are 2 people to country in my view sherry one heart. but there are tensions, not least at the border crossings from america into canada, a note historically high levels. one point between new york state and quebec. a hot spot, even in winter. though both countries have agreed the can ton away would be asylum seekers. in exchange, canada will accept 15000 more central and south american migrants through legal channels. our border is no longer just the place where we meet each other. it's the place where we will meet the moment. cheerleaders also addressed issues like climate change, the warden ukraine, and the growing threat from china, the spy balloon, that flew over america recently before being short don't cross canadian air space. suspending, more than defense has become a priority. as, as paying attention to existing allies we have are on, you know,

significantly expanded our alliances. i haven't seen that happen with china and, or russian or anybody else in the world. we're in a situation united states were nato. a stronger role together. the g 7 a quad, the asi on. ah, japan and korea safely. what donald trump visited canada in 2018. he tweeted out an attack on the prime minister after he left the warm smiles and farm handshakes. this time round suggest alicia's between the 2 countries are better. but they still have issues that haven't disappeared. alan fisher al jazeera to welcome present to people have been found dead and 13 others suffering illness inside a sweltering train car in southern texas. there believe to be migrants who crossed into the united states from mexico. the u. s. border patrol stopped the train on friday. anonymous emergency call told police that the train contain
