on al jazeera blue former us president donald trump is expected to voluntarily surrender to face criminal charges next week. but a current precedent remains tight lipped. i'm no calm with hello, i'm carry johnston. this is al jazeera, well log from dough. also coming up, mexico's president is met with protests. as he visits the city with 39 migrants died in a fire earlier this week. a stampede during the distribution of food in park is on

the kills at least 11 people. thus, the un to face his criticism for participating in the pilot project to repatriate ro, hang the refugees from bangladesh to me and my ah, donald trump is expected to appear in a new york court on tuesday. the 1st form a u. s. president to face criminal charges is expected to plead not guilty to accusations related to a hush money payment to adult film star stormy daniels. gabriel is on the reports now from new york. ah, a handful of protesters came out friday at trump tower. new york. as news of the former president's indictment filtered through about 6 kilometers to the south outside the manhattan district attorney's office. the anticipation among the world's media is also building as a date with history draws closer. but back in florida,

donald trump's plain remains firmly on the tarmac, the man himself staying behind closed doors through most of the day, leaving his supporters to do most of the talking for him. i think these charges are not legitimate charges. i think what is happening right now in our nation is very sad and i feel that the direction that we are headed is very dangerous since the manhattan district attorney's office, confirmed trumps indictment over hush money payments to a former adult film star speculation has amounted over how trumps arraignment will play out? they've got nothing and its potential effect on the country. trump's lawyers say they'll vigorously fight the charges and framed the indictment as political persecution. it's believe trump will surrender on tuesday, and it's expected he will arrive here at the district attorney's office, where he will have his photograph and fingerprints take him. he will then walk down

a long hallway to make his 1st court appearance at an arraignment when he is free to leave. the big question then is, will trump come outside to address the media? one person, apparently unwilling to be drawn into the debate. current u. s. president joe biden. ah, i to bother you. i'm no common outside the district attorney's office. the weight is on now just days away from a former president to show up and surrender to face a judicial system that is waiting for him. gabriel's dondo al jazeera new york trumps lawyer says the case is politically motivated. this is a historic case, a monumental case. his lab will have wide reaching ramifications. and it really today, i feel very concerned about the rule in this country course in dangers. the rule of

law, all americans, today's donald trump, tomorrow it's a democrat of the day after it's a and your friend, the after that, if you were me. and that's what concerns we want to prosecute to couldn't use the law and the system to go after political opponent. it's something that frightens me, rona. phillip cowski is a former federal prosecutor in the united states. he says, trumpet may find it difficult to stick to the bail conditions. i fully expect, given what we've seen so far, the judge to order him that if he's gonna remain out on pre trial release, he cannot not try to attempt to harass, threaten or intimidate any of the witnesses, such as stormy daniels, michael cohen. any of the prosecutors, especially alvin brag or the judge. and that's going to be a pretty big mine field for him. not to be able to, to post on social media or to denigrate them and rally speeches. because that's his

bread and butter. i would have said that the new york protest was going to be minor if anything at all, tracking them as i do i, i follow on social media, many of the rabble rousers in new york. but the announcement today of the georgia congresswoman green going there to spearhead this protest that's really energized the right on social media like i haven't really seen since prior to january 6th. so i think that she could draw a significant crowd and could bring in a number of people from outside the city of new york in there. on tuesday. angry protested, surrounded mexican, the president undressed manual lopez over the doors car as he visited the city with 39 migrants died in a fire earlier this week. if i began inside detention center here, that what is very close to the us border investigation is underway into why 68 mail

migrants appear to have been left locked in their cell while the fire burned. 5 people had been arrested. john homan has more now from mexico city president under his man will lopez over a door of mexico on friday. visited sir that qualities. a town in which at least $39.00 migrants died in a fire that broke out in a migrant detention center in the town on monday night. but his visit was it actually to investigate would happen to see the survivors perhaps in the hospital. it was pre raised and it was local with local state officials and the president actually didn't go anywhere near those survivors. obviously wary of a photo opportunity of, or of any sort of publicity around this case. what has happened after the events of monday night is that some officials security guards a migrant himself who was accused of starting the fire, have been arrested. a commission has been announced by the president looking into

human rights for migrants in the country. but the big question is whether this negligence, perhaps even homicide of migrants will change the big picture in the way that met her, treat people that are often going through here and trying to get to the united states at the moment. the policy is heavily into prevention. there's a militarized force, the national guard that seeks to stop them getting to the border with the states. there's also a detention center, not just the qualities, but across different parts of the country that been compare by some migrant to over crowded prisons. will any of that change? that is a i said that is yet to be answered. a co doors, constitutional court is allowing impeachment proceedings to go ahead against present when will last, so he's accused of embezzlement. the decision has sparked a major political crisis as alice on to round p at he not reports. ecuadorian president guillermo last looks increasingly isolated as he begins the latest fight

become increasingly hard for any political sector to defend them. what was that? was your political? should i made you? this impeachment trial is happening after law, so suffered heavy defeats and local elections and in a referendum last month, among a worsening security crisis. there is also a crisis in the health system yet. and i think the generalized discontent might play a role in pushing legislators to make a political decision more than a simple judicial one villa, somebody. and that's without the national assembly as up to $45.00 days to investigate the charges. house laughter will require 9. the 2 of the assemblies, a $137.00 votes, other political experts feared a removal could impact equity is already weak institutions, but insist the president as only himself to blame on the quantity to get picked up about the matter. thank you. this is believe one could worry about the comic and social effects that this political crises could have in ecuador. but the reality is that it's the economic and social crisis and the country that brought us to this

point. this impeachment trial is nothing else than a way of trying to solve the whole settle failures of last was administration. if the vote to remove and passes lasso would be replaced by vice president that friend, the betrayal. a former medical doctor and a political novice valesa could instead choose to the south congress before the vote, triggering fresh elections that given the president's approval ratings. most believe he would certainly lose allison that ability and just eda in pakistan at least 11 people have been killed and dozens injured in the stampede. hundreds were queueing up with a food distribution site for handouts in karachi, humanitarian aid has been a lifeline for many in pakistan as a nation struggles with a deep economic crisis. fenton modern has more. oh, he, us infusion and panic. the injured and dead are everywhere. money and food has been

and there's been further controversy after late communication revealed un boats were used to transport a genta officials to bangladesh in march, automatic editor james bays, raise these issues with humans, special envoy on me and la. we had made it very clear that that of any attempt at return is not about closing camps, nor whooping people. it has to be based on the international standards and best practices. and we have always stressed that the conditions in the right kind has got to be conducive to voluntary save and dignified return. and a, we are not satisfied that those conditions are there at this particular time. but right now, you've heard of officials from the military regime who have gone to bangladesh and they are organizing a pilot project to return people to see you and support them. well, a currently

a u. n. a sierra is in charge of that, ah, and so, so i think they, they are the best people to us. but they had made it very clear in that, in their statements that this is a bilateral arrangement. you and hcr has also used boats un boats to transport members of the military regime to bangladesh. they took off the un insignia, they apparently had guns under tarpaulins as they went there. i mean, the sounds like an appalling breach of un neutrality. was it a serious mistake? well i think again, i think you have to refer. a to the u. n. a c r r ah statements, i am not in a position to to say are what they have already said. i accept tools to support them, but that journey on un boats does have, i think, serious repercussions for the perception of the u. n, the generals who carried out

a cou, now seemed to at least on one occasion, have a navy. and that navy is the united nations, doesn't as put you and staff at risk. well, if they had consulted me, i would have stopped it. but nobody consulted me. the international monetary fund has approved there $15600000000.00 loan, few crane is aimed at helping keep maintaining economic stability as a battles of russian invasion. the loan will be spread over 4 years. is part of a broader $115000000000.00 international support package. in return, ukraine will have to implement fiscal reforms and step up anti corruption efforts. or still to come here on al jazeera, the pledge is to extend its financial lifeline to lebanon. economic crisis is showing no sign of abating ah

. blue ah, this is alex is here. reminder of our main stories now. donald trump is expected to appear in a new york court on tuesday. the 1st at former u. s. president to face criminal charges is expected to plead not guilty to accusations related to a hush money payment to adult film. star stormy daniel's angry protests is surrounded mexican president, tundras. my no, nope. is over the doors call. it visited this city with 39. my goods died in the fire earlier this week. the fire began inside a detention center pipe. people been arrested in pakistan at least 11 people have

been killed in a stampede or to ramadan food distribution center. humanitarian aid has been a lifeline for many as a nation struggles with a deep economic crisis. the european union has announced additional funding to help lebanon deal with its economic crisis. in the past to you, support has only been directed towards the syrian refugees. the 2000000 lebanese are also in need of help as a situation worsens. in the hotel reports from barrett, the devaluation of lebanon's currency has made life difficult for many anger is growing more than 3 years into an economic crisis that shows no sign of improving. in the past, the international support focused on the more than 1000000 syrian refugees in the country, the highest number of refugees per capita in the world. that changed the european

union now says 2200000 lebanese need financial assistance. that's more than a 3rd of the population. the blocks commissioner for crisis management announced additional funding during a visit to be route, but made clear, it won't be enough to resolve the challenges. a 20 percent increase compared to last year. but as you know, he went dead and 8th is not a sustainable long term solution. this continued reforms, his continued political consolidation, discontinued the election of a president. this country needs a government with full power in place. and this country needs an agreement with international community. specifically, with the international monetary fund, the invoice reiterated the international community, a long standing position,

the financial lifeline needed to rescue the economy is through a deal with the international monetary fund. political leaders have refused to cooperate because that would entail losing influence over the states resources. instead, some officials blame the presence of syrian refugees for the crisis. the thought of the use of lebanon, of their own responsibility for providing basic services to the citizens of lebanon . and let me be very clear. the current crisis in lebanon and financial params inflation was not caused by c. d. s injures. international aid is at least for now holding off lebanon's transition into a failed state. but already the policy of no policy making has impacted all aspects of life, including an all but paralyzed public sector. then there is either

equipment underpayment of wages is very common, union buffing is very common at work, and covenant stream needed time speaking out, or making sure that a key issue is that as being the massive kind of passing the buck between different people, you should all be working together to create change. you know, the authority point to retailers repay the point of government. it keeps on passing round, whereas actually, you know, supermarket are profiting from the ration and they do that or need to taking accountability for it. i think it's easy when retailers, because one step removed the equitation to be saying, you know, it's not our issue is not awful, but the condition happening portage 20 years and it doesn't fly anymore to just say it's down the line in the farms, both governments but we can't do anything about it. i think that's probably a bit of naive from many of us about what goes on in europe. and particularly when

it comes to migrant workers, undocumented migrants often the most secret society people really content blind di to what is actually very in many ways. blayton export taishan. a 2nd greek red employee has been detained in connection with february's train disaster. 57 people were killed when a passenger service collided had on the freight train. the man detained was on duty as a station supervisor at the time of the accident. he's been charged with disruption of traffic safety, causing death. the station master was arrested in february and charged with negligent homicide. social media into and sir andrew tate and his brother have been released from custody in romania and placed on the house arrest. they being investigated over human trafficking, rape, and formula, criminal gang to exceptionally exploit women. the 2 men have been in detention since the end of december. andrew tate is a self described massage, honest,

say they're being forced to queue up in overcrowded government hospitals or go to another state shrouded fancied already sent more than the national average on public health and treatment. and government hospitals like this is largely 3. the right to have hack mix 3 help get a nigger rights, making it the 1st legislation of a find in india. apparently dr. city actually forced private hospitals to treat emergency cases even if patients cannot afford it. they believe this will increase bureaucratic interference emergency when. 1 soccer, how can the government define an emergency? that's for the doctors to decide. i'm sick, the government should ask us to help them make a law. the act looks like it's been copied from a developed country, which has good health care infrastructure. the government says the actual expand existing health, gaskins, and increase access to the poorest people really live. okay. love can be sometimes poor people don't get treated in either government or private hospitals. that's why

it's important to give it to them as a right. so they won't die because they didn't get treatments. if the government's covering costs up to $30000.00, that what's the issue? the government says it's open to discussions but will not be the act. patients hope the deadlock is resolved soon. for now, the plan to broaden help get access has resulted in restricting it, at least temporarily by the name of the largest cedar jap or northern india. a tornado has struck the city of little rock in the us state of arkansas, killing at least 2 people injuring dozens more. the twister shredded roof tops ob rooted trees and destroyed a small shopping center. tens of thousands of residence without power. he comes a week after thunderstorms, on least a tornado in mississippi, killing 26 people. former south african paralympic, oscar pastorius has been denied parole and will stay in prison for at least another year. he serving 13 years for the murder of his girlfriend with esteem come on the

se when i 1st heard from the principle that the school was closing down, it was sad. but i also thought it was such a waste to close a school with a long history like this one. it's a nationwide phenomenon. the government says 9000 schools have shut down between 20022020. as birth rates continue to decline, the cost of education, child care, and the child raising burden on women are cited as some of the main causes. last year, annual birth dropped below 800000 for the 1st time, 8 years earlier than projected. what i think whole day this is here from the period when the school had the most pupils. they were about $160.00 of them. while we and ita are the last 2 students who will ever graduate from the school counselor to the see. i don't know if there will be any children left in the village by the time i'm a nursery school teacher. but if there are, i want to come back and teach you the government house prioritize booth.
