ah, there is no channel that covers world use like we do, we revisit places the state. i'll just really invest in that. and that's a privilege. as a journalist, a meeting of mine's it's list steadly word freedom which has used to cover so many different things. the fan you of the mainstream economics. if that happens in any other profession, they will be fired. yeah. or not just fire. they would go to prison. musical innovator, brian, you know, meets renowned economist hygiene chang. part one. i see a lot of hope. i see a lot of experiments going on in the world. studio b unscripted on al jazeera. ah yeah. and susie rebels and the somebody led coalition begin, a major prisoner exchange of over 800 people, part of renewed efforts to end the war.

ah. but on the clock, this is al jazeera life until so coming up the f. b, i arrest so 21 year old member of the u. s. and national guard. the leaks of highly sensitive classified documents. online al jazeera exposed the criminal network, tiny, dirty cash into golden southern africa. it indicates some powerful people, including cimbawe, always 1st lady, and nearing eruption of volcano and columbia threatens people in towns with memories of previous disasters. still to fresh. ah. so we begin with significant developments in yemen for the 1st time since 2020, who's the rebel and the saudi led coalition to hold you a significant prisoner exchange. it's part of broader diplomatic efforts to end the

9 year conflicts. red cross says more than 800 people, a g to be released in the coming days. let's come straight away to our deserts house while bar is covered. the extensively jones is here in the studio. that has some, you know, very well the ins and outs of this complicated situation. how important is this, ma'am? it's very, a pivotal moment because because what is happening today will definitely have to pick a percussionist in syria, in libya, in different parts of the other world. and we can explain later why, because this is a deal that has been broken by the saudis, and the iranians. 2 key arrivals in the region, iran being the protector of so called protector of she, i is lamb saudi arabia, the protector or so called protector of sin, is that they decided to set aside their difference. and they said, you know what, let's start with the amount and we can see the significant breakthrough, which is the prisoner exchange with her, which has eluded the u. n. and the americas for quite some time. what is

interesting about this is that it is a significant confidence building measure that is going to be conducive to war settlements in yemen in the upcoming weeks. okay, so we have this prisoner exchange today and over the next couple of days, and then there will be more hopefully in the coming weeks at then what happens, what happens after that? the his way becomes tricky because what happens next is saudis would like to see the warring factions in yemen form and enter in government for 2 years. and then a final agreement about how to move forward. but this is where having problems the health is have been saying, no, you are a party, does a conflict. so therefore you cannot negotiate a settlement. you cannot be a mediator in this. and this explains why the side ambassador has left backdoor or yeah. then we're expecting him to come back to santa in the upcoming days by the trust is definitely going to help us. so we are expecting a breakthrough on the trust in the upcoming days. i think within the last days of ramadan, followed by those political toss, while those talks are going to take quite some time. what is fascinating about

yemen, nick is, as we speak now, a plane is landing, are now in the capital of the south. adam with one key figures now being released general mammals, us with my mother. so where was administer of defense? who was taken prisoner by the health? is his very pivotal. he is very significant character, but he comes from the south. and guess what the southerners are going to seize the opportunity to day to say, our hero is bad, but they will press ahead for the south to break away from the north. they would love to reinstate the marxist lin estate than be valium and anti mighty in mind to when it joined the unity of following the collapse of the soviet union. further complicating the task of saudi arabia and yemen, which was hoping to be able to just bring all the parties to negotiate. a settlement within only one year, but also human as a country which has divided long sectarian lives. the health is our zaid is ona shut off. she i is lamb. the southerners are sunny's backed by saudi arabia. it's

going to be easy to set aside all those differences or to go she had a settlement, will have to wait and seek. and as you say, coming back your top points important, not just for yemen itself clearly, and that is a priority, but also huge regional significance up. so that if you look at what happened over the last 48 hours. absolutely fascinating. cattle and bahrain are resuming diplomatic size. if i sell them up there this the, the syrian ambassador minister of foreign affairs is in saudi arabia and beat cause of normalization. at with a precedent by shuttle i said, and bringing cilia back to the arab league. this was unprecedented about just because you couldn't think about this about a few months ago. so when you look at, it looks like the brought brush mont, between saudi arabia and iran, is we're shuffling. the political landscape is going to be a permanent re alignments, your political re, alignment in the region. it is quite obvious that the saudis are using the leverage

they have the are the most powerful, wealthiest nation in this part of the world. the use, the fact that the are one of the most important. so new nations in this part of the world and using vast that to say we would love to have a permanent settlement. but this is also something which is good news for compress . mohammad been said, man, because he is launching this massive trans roof transformation of saudi arabia. he wants stability, he wants beast, he thought he doesn't want to see his country rained down by drones and rockets from now. this is going to somehow erode his plan for the future. to do that, i think he picked her a surprising choice, going to the hub on doing the peace deal and hoping that this is something that is going to trickle down to the different conflicts in the region. right. and finally, how she may, as we look ahead, the coming days, weeks, indeed, months what, what's the next thing that we should be looking out for? we should be hoping to see the announcement of the chose, which is going to be extended for 6 months. but we are not telling people, is that this is going to be a permanent truce. because if you want to start political talks about ending the

political conflict in yemen, you have to have a sense of a permanent piece. now, you have the healthy sylva north, the control center, the, the are enjoying celebrating the new found a political and diplomatic gains because the saudis ultimately had to go back to the health is the arch enemy in the region. to say it's have a political settlement. the health is, are saying whatever happens in the future, saudi arabia has to understand, well, the ones who have a bigger, say, as far as the oven is concerned. now with the other parties, particularly the southerners or the islam party, which is a party affiliated with the muslim brotherhood, a very powerful idiom and will the accept those conditions. i dont think from the time that i spent idiom idol, think that with happened by could be an indication that if a did is going to happen in yemen, you will definitely have to take years and years. right. so progress being maybe a long way to go yet hash and great, get your analysis, appreciate that. thank you very much. thank you. well, in the coming hours,

which could be about $15000.00 prisoners in both the, in the hands of both parties. and that's why i think if, if, if this but isn't it, it can, you will go as it was bland. i believe that after about done, it will be more at a deal will be struck to release all other business, the visit of the so the bus to on i, which he has actually leave left and i, yesterday, they haven't actually struck in regarding the b. suppose as a, because one big issue which actually this, o, d, those a want a, they want to be as a mediator like the old man is they doing to be as a part of, for any deal agreement that the wife and i had refused to tell you because they said the biggest part of this war is this r o d as in sulfur, that's why they, they, they will not find any agreement as mediator. they are not like the money,

the out of the one who launched the war against the yemen. and it was declared by the so d, because the many want to help. so would you responsible for all compensation should be the should actually a saudi is responsible for that out of the will to withdraw or it's for his including the night out of him. but it from across yemen. and then after that you have many can actually pull together and fit together. and without any involvement of this, o d, or of the united out of a minute. the so the out. so can say like a po, bottom the and they put him in the beginning of the war. they call it a civil war audio many crisis. they, i don't think they will accept and to be part of any agreement as a big layer of, of this war on the same time as a fuse to, to negotiate is so the as mediator. that's why i think this au,

the will not accept this said main demand the i didn't think that we will see any b coming soon. t m u s. president to the address brief houses of ireland. parliament use the 4th american leader to do so by reflected on what he called the enduring strength of connections between island and the united states. hold brenner reports now from dublin. day 2 of the u. s. presidents official visit provided the diplomatic and political center piece to this whole trip. kennedy reagan clinton and now applied, and just for us, presidents have addressed the joint houses of the irish parliament. and for joe biden, this most irish of american leaders, the occasion carried a deep personal significance people my own, it's so good to be back in ireland. if you begin the poor attempted irish tom, i shall warrior i know one word.

possibility. we believe anything is possible, reset our mind to it and we do it together. this is united states of america and iron. there's nothing beyond our capacity. if we do it together and we got to believe that we got to know that because that's the history of both our countries. joe biden has brought a heavy weight entourage to island including his secretary of state antony, blinking, and agriculture. secretary, tom vilsack, economic lynx, the war and ukraine and ongoing difficulties with the peace process in northern ireland. all topics of substantive discussion in the president, bilateral with the irish liter leo, veronica, we really do appreciate your, your leadership and your personal leadership both in terms of securing peace in ireland. but also in trying to protect democracy and liberty here in europe is not just a sentimental visit locking on behind the scenes. we don't have a very new and complex geopolitical picture. the follow up from the u. korean war

is changing, trans atlantic relationships breaks it is changing transatlantic relationship, ireland stepping into a new position for these reasons. and that is something that will be discussed between our old united states. and this was it, even if we don't sit very publicly, destroy my dentist. oh, of course, the symbolism is ever present in sounding the p spell with irish president, michael de higgins biden, literally giving his ringing endorsement to the 1998 good friday agreement, which brought an end to the 30 year sectarian conflict in northern ireland. the public and media reaction has been overwhelmingly positive. the only hesitant reaction came from mission of michael higgins enormous bernie's mountain dog, which seemed unsure whether approaching a u. s. president might be a breach of protocol. it is with some pride and no exaggeration, that the irish government describes relations between dublin and washington as very,

very warm and a relax looking. joe biden clearly feels he is among friends here. but thursdays agenda also serve to emphasize the serious issues and ongoing challenges that both countries share poll brennan, al jazeera doublet, brazil's president luther nasty alluded to, silva is expected to meet china's neatness using pink shortly, taking out some live pictures. so these coming from bay ging, where lula is on a state visits, the 2 leaders are expected to find ways to for the boost political and economic ties. china is brazil biggest trading partner, the war in ukraine, also on the agenda, which kimber is falling, that visit from uncle paul. there are expectations that president lula will present to president. she the idea of being what's being dubbed as a piece, club of nations, 2 together work on mediating between russia and ukraine over the long running war.

that this would be an extension, effectively of trying his own efforts to present itself as a mediator in that war. that effort from china, and it includes, of course, trying his own piece plan the how to resolve that long running war that's been met with suspicion and largely dismissed by the united states as its allies. they see china is too close to russia. they see china's piece plan as unreasonably favoring russia. and so any attempt by president lula to try and cozy up to china on this, or at least to show support to china on this, may be viewed in the same way, ultimately, unfavorably by the u. s. but this is being seen ultimately as a way for china to try and build global support for its effort to be seen as a mediator on this front and the bricks. nations with russia. of course, one of those nations is a key way for trying to build more global credibility about its efforts to try and resolve that war. australia north west coast has been hit by the most powerful tropical storm in years. cycling also made landfill near port headland, which is a major help for and or exports. people in several communities have been told to
