6:02 pm
a campaign overshadowed by the assassination of the anti corruption presidential candidates. fernando vi sense you, whose name still appeared on the ballot paper authorities went to extraordinary lengths to ensure the safety of the presidential hopefuls on voting day. let's take a look at the candidates who came out on top in ecuador, as presidential election on sunday 45 year old louisa gonzalez was a, is from the left us citizen the revolution in movements she received the most folks in the 1st round as part of her plans to reform the struggling economy. gonzalez says that she is prepared to spend billions from ecuador as international reserves, and she says that she wants to secure the border with columbia and partner with you countries. the clamp down on the global drugs trade, 60 percent of which comes through equity doors ports. she faces off against daniel nobela, a 35 year old relative newcomer to politics. he'd been pulling near the bottom of
6:03 pm
the pack for most of the campaign, but a strong debate performance saw him storage to a surprise, 2nd place when in the 1st round. the boy comes from one of latin, america's riches families known for their banana empire. his father has tried and failed several times to become president or latin america added to lucy. a newman joins us now from quito. lucy, yeah, you have this line and your previous report which we ran earlier, even in an election in which we elected a surprise, we expected a surprise result. the fact that no beau a makes it to the run off is extremely surprising. talk to us about the slate of candidates. now gonzalez versus noble to. yes, absolutely. i can tell you that. uh, 9 days ago nobody was taking danielle and no boss seriously. they saw him as a millennial. a rich boy was aspirations to do what his father had been unable to
6:04 pm
do, and that is to become president in the ber, his father, who was also a very, very wealthy multi millionaire businessman in the banana business, had tried at least 5 times to be president in fact, he had said that in this campaign he was going to be the candidate and then surprisingly it was his son instead. then your logo has, has been a congressman, but for only 2 years i'd really not made very many waves. but then came the presidential debate and that he then apparently did you draw the attention of many, many people in this country, particularly young people who liked what he had to say. he address the problem of young people, of unemployment, the lack of future that they feel that they have here, that makes so many of them want to migrate from ecuador, and in fact, there was a mass exodus at this moment because of the economic prizes. so those are the people that hear your mouth is also very savvy using social networks. so he did
6:05 pm
that as well. and so to the surprise of everyone, myself included, he came in 2nd and is going to put up quite a fight in this 2nd round. so the 2nd round, gonzalez versus no, bo gonzalez is the error, politically speaking to quarter, a small explain to our viewers what that is, what that means. yes, a quarter east of all means the people who are part of the former president rafael quarterly as political projects, who are loyal to him and who believe that they can bring back his citizens revolution party to power. when graph i go to the i was president things in this country for a while, we're doing very, very well. he was the, the price of the barrel of oil was very high. this is an oil producing and exporting country. he had social programs that were very popular, but then in his 2nd administrative sion, the problems of the nagging accusations of corruption began to fall in the economy
6:06 pm
began to plummet and he eventually went into cells for a been to exile into. he's now living formerly in belgium. his wife has belgium and he is been actually tried and up send ship and sentenced 8 years in prison for corruption. so that was, this party became very disgrace, but many a good orange remembered quarter of a small that which is named after him quarter. yeah. as the good old days in this country. and so louisa sanders had promised to bring back those days using the argument that they know how to do it that they've governed before, and that they've had it. they knew how to govern well and helped ordinary people. let's see a standby because there was another part of this election that we have to talk about. ecuador is, i've also voted to stop drilling for oil in the amazon reserve and a referendum hailed as a historic victory for the planet. now the yes vote to hold exploitation of an oil block in the sunni national park, one by 59 percent. the reserve is considered one of the most diverse bio stairs in
6:07 pm
the world. it's also home. so one of the world largest indigenous populations. let's see, let's bring you back in you and i just a few days ago you were in brazil covering the amazon summit where all the amazon countries that have a stick in the wellbeing of the amazon. we all do, frankly, but those countries came together and to discuss ways and a common agenda to protect the amazon. and now we have this specific referendum where people are cutting themselves off from what could be a useful, some say indispensable economic lifeline in order to protect the amazon. talk to us about that when you're absolutely right. it seems like just yesterday, that the leaders, the, the heads of state of the amazon in countries, all 8 of them were there. and the most controversial item was precisely whether or not to exploit oil in the m, as in those delegates amazonian regions. the president of echo,
6:08 pm
didn't even go to that summit. and certainly he is, is very much opposed to what the court with the question that adds rather to the question that was posed to ecuador, and in this referendum. and to the surprise of, perhaps many of the neighbors of this country, ecuador is of decided that they do not want really in the yes. so need part. the yes one is only one part of the ecuadorian. i'm a zone in region, but it's, it's considered the richest just in terms of biodiversity and human life on contacted tribes, etc. so there are other areas of ecuador where you can drill for oil, but not that particular one. and the people of this country have spoken to very clearly, they say they want to leave that part of that area, which is a norm is untouched. whether or not that's going to make a huge difference to the economy. it really depends who you talk to, but many of the experts i've discussed this would say that it really is not so much
6:09 pm
that they rather that the country would news more than they could actually gain by destroying that park as it is now and leaving it christine and untouched. and that's really interesting. we'll see a newman thank you very much for all of that. let's see a newman else's 0 is latin america. it's a reporting from kito. the british nurse has been sentenced to life in prison for murdering 7 babies in her care. lucy let be. was found guilty of attempting to murder 6 others at the neo natal hospital unit where she worked. that'd be refused to leave herself with a sentencing and prime minister, where she soon acts as that he wants to change the laws to stop that from happening again. i think it's cowardly that people who commit such horrendous crimes do not face the victims. and here 1st time the impact that they come to pass on them and their families and loved ones that we are looking and have been at changing the low to make sure that that happens. and that's something that will bring forward into cost sooner go, yeah, go has the latest on this from london,
6:10 pm
they have only been 3 other women who have been handed down a whole life for the mattress, the deemed so dangerous that the possibility of being released from prison was deemed too dangerous. now lucy, let be joined. the ranks of the killing of 7 babies, a neo natal units in the countess, the chest of hospital, as well as the attentive killing of 6 others. while she did not turn up to hear how sentencing in court today, the judge addressed the quotes directly as if she was stating that the meditation calculation and coming in your actions. now they will also present some doesn't the relatives of the victims as well, giving statements detailing the enormous distress that these families start suffered. also what is being called into question is,
6:11 pm
why did the hospital leave it so late for these tests to be investigates? and that was indeed quite a bit of a contrast between how the consultants will go in and the executives of the hospital all the issues. yes, the executives of a hospital launch 2 inquiries initially which failed to include any forensic testing. one of actually police work hold in and investigators will looked at that's when it became obvious, all the expense of let fees in put into this. nevertheless, there are serious questions being off and the inquiry is being put into place. but there are also. 2 calls for those executives at the hospital to be compelled to give evidence of why they left it so late to pull the inquiry again. so do you guys ever? i'll just sarah love them is really settlers of attack palestinians after and it's really women was shot dead. the attack happened near the city of hebron is really

6:16 pm
the storm made land full on mexico's baja california peninsula on sunday and boot swiftly northward. one person was reported killed in mexico when their vehicle was swept away. 26000000 people are in the storms path. the national weather service warrant of catastrophic and life threatening flash floods, particularly affecting low line desert areas. some towns were under evacuation orders, elsewhere. people loaded up on sandbags and sought shelter indoors, bad down the hatches in los angeles, heavy rain flooded intersections, public schools in la and san diego will be closed on monday, one person was rescued from the rain swollen l. a river. right now, it is critical that angelenos stay safe and stay home unless directed otherwise by safety officials record rainfall hit palm springs and neighboring towns as if the storm wasn't enough of 5 point. one magnitude earthquake hit sunday afternoon near
6:17 pm
santa barbara and was felt by people throughout the area. as darkness falls, millions of people throughout this region are waiting h to sleep for the full force of tropical storm hillary to descend as one senior official in san diego county ward. the worst is yet to come. rob reynolds, l g 0, palm springs, california also. and this news now or donald trump says he has no need to join these 1st republican debates. as his track record speaks for itself. plus the world's longest serving fine ministry hands overpowered to his son and in sport action from the world athletics championships. were this printer as one the 1st of a possible 3 gold medals? the so donald trump has confirmed that he won't be taking part in the 1st republican
6:18 pm
debate with other presidential hopefuls. on wednesday he posted on his social media site that he believes voters know how successful his presidency was. is currently the front runner for the republican nomination, and that is despite the former us president facing for trials, including the recent indictment for attempting to overturn the 2020 election in the us state of georgia. trump, i have until mid day on friday to voluntarily surrender to georgian authorities. let's go to alan fisher, who is in atlanta, georgia allen, witness trump expected to appear in court. the. well, of course, he's made no public notification of when he's going to come here to atlanta and it was due to all the news conference that his segments to the state that has been cancelled. he was going to outline what he says is a document which would prove his innocence of any of the charges in georgia. his lawyers kind of put a hand on the shoulder and said, look, that's not
6:19 pm
a good idea. maybe you want to hold that all for a while, so he's not canceled that at the speculation. and certainly the best informed guess is would suggest that he's likely to appear on thursday. there's a couple of reasons for that. one, it's before the friday deadline, which is obvious and means that if he tried to do it on friday and the late for any reason, that would be a problem for him legally. but secondly, if he appears here on thursday, it's absolutely sucks all the year out of the room. when all the other american cable networks will be talking about the republican debate on weight and state. all the focus will be on donald trump. and we know that donald trump loved was when the world is talking about donald trump. okay, so in that case we may have a partial answer. my next question, which is the debate and why he's pulled out of it? i mean, he's not. somebody was known to have stage fright. you know, i, i and certainly in 2016. that's how he became the front runner in the presidential
6:20 pm
race by appealing center stage. and almost every single debate on tuning done. and those who are thought more likely more qualified to get to the nomination. when you think about the likes of jeb bush completely destroyed them. ted cruz little michael rubio, as he called them, a nickname which has hung around for almost 10 years. it's still there with him. if you look at the polls, donald trump, in the last one of the we can see is pulling 51 percent support of republican voters. that's more than all the other contenders together. so why would you, if you were donald trump, put that at risk by appealing on stage with people who see that the intent is to drag. you don't to call you names and criticize your records. there is no upside to donald trump from doing that. so that is why he's decided to give this debate and possibly all the other debates. and this one is interesting is that supporters like marjorie taylor and others will be on the ground in the will key for the debate.
6:21 pm
the supporters of donald trump, they're not swapping allegiances. what they're going to do is go to the media filing center. the spin room is known and they are going to spin hard for donald trump. the of course, will be in the room, but could only benefit from not being in the room. one way, that's remarkable. tactically, you're telling us the best thing you can do for his campaign is not show up. that's pretty remarkable. thank you for the explanation now with us president joe biden is due to visit hawaii to get a 1st hand look at the devastation caused by the wind fires bite and will meet with survivors and emergency officials on the island of maui. his administration has been criticized for their response to the disaster and investigation is underway into the cause of the most lethal fires in the us state and over a century. the best thousands of people have been ordered to leave areas in western canada were nearly 400 wildfires of burning. more than 35000 people are also under evacuation orders in the province of british columbia. canada is experiencing its
6:22 pm
worst wildfire season on record. at least 1000 fires are burning across the country . things are looking better. we are finally feeling like we're moving forward rather than we're moving backwards. and that's a great feeling for all of us to have him saying that make no mistake. there will be difficult days ahead. and prime minister just intrude on says every canadian should step up to help in whichever way they can. canadians across the country, particularly out west, are stepping up to help their fellow citizens, their neighbors, residents who are fleeing for their lives. in many cases, they've lost everything. and these are things where emergencies happen and canadians pull together. and it's, it's always comforting to see um,
6:23 pm
the federal government is continuing to stop up where they're with canadian armed forces resources were active in coordinating with regional and local governments to make sure people are safe. make sure we're doing everything to protect lives. property in guatemala, the anti corruption campaign, or bernardo array below has won a presidential run off by a landslide. he won 58 percent of the vote against former 1st lady sandra torres, metal republic reports from the capital, the celebrations in the guatemalan capital supporters of the center left anti corruption candidate bid them out of the idea of cheering his landslide victory over former 1st lady send that authorities, we are out celebrating the seed, we've tempted with our vote, hoping it will flourish. the unable to see by many as a political outside are managed to shake up guatemalans political landscape. one of
6:24 pm
the biggest electoral surprises in recent memory was looking at vigorously, that's what they meant today. lots of mountains have hope. we are celebrating the return of the feeling of hope in the streets of our country. 8000 electoral observers were deployed in guatemala to oversee the election following a controversial campaign season, marked by concerns about democracy. here being threatened, lexi, i'm going to just almost one. the moment of this is possibly the most important election that we've had in the last 38 years because we've had the chance to stop the back fighting that we've experienced in the last 3 years and close the door on the threat of authoritarianism. i didn't lose victory in sundays election is seen as the culmination of widespread discontent over worsening crime, corruption and economic stagnation issues that some analysts say have no easy solution. the problem with that i've always, expectations are really high,
6:25 pm
but probably, as i really hard to fix, also fears there could soon be attempts by the opposition to undermine either by those victory. it's an absolutely, it's got a crowd, guatemala city's historic cetera. as well as for say that the challenges that lie ahead are massive. none of that seems to matter right now. this is the moment of celebration. apollo al jazeera, guatemala city. let's get more now from someone you just saw in that report, and got ortiz re political risk consultants, and you're joining us from guatemala city. thank you very much. you told our team before this interview that our valo is a quote glitch in the matrix y. as well as using the guest as far as all the work 3 years, 5 years ago. it's a small r e and they had all the years and the presidential candidate, i mean now the electrical. and the reason why she wanted to
6:26 pm
make sure she got to the 2nd round was the really polishing, was trying to read, but not by reason bolt, i think, which is probably what am i losing the arrivals. and they exclude 3 presidential candidates from the opposition and the man for that, i don't know the, you know. sure, well, that's odd, surprise. so, you know, all of these factors, these on pretty good will factors made us mean i know the, the new britain is whether or not he was almost sidelined. and you just alluded to this almost sideline just before the election. there was that 23 day scramble in the courts. the electoral commission, everybody was saying something a little different. they're saying he's disqualified, his party can't run, therefore he can't run. and then finally, he's back in and says, so he's the president elect at the time the guatemalans were saying,
6:27 pm
this is the corrupt establishment trying to steal the voice of the people. now that he's president, what kind of opposition is he likely to encounter as well? it was based off of the vision for maybe science and in the 1st place. and i get the government. so he's borrowing what he means to send me out. we only have a 20 to receive out on the $160.00 congress. that's a really smaller and, and, but the size political organization, he stays in his car is spacing in dyersburg mounted by his, by the office, but in a very dubious way. i mean, the case is about leslie followed signatures during the process to go to florida to pardon me, probably the issue i needed to do to become part of the uh re this case um under the law organized crime, which is very new using this case. and uh,
6:28 pm
it is very weird, the procedures office who riverside has this door and enters our drawing board. cause i want to start with the basic medium was issued for many sectors organized right only for the fees congress and probably the majors were elected into the old system over. so hold on, who's on his side then i mean other than the voters because if he has to face down congress organized crime, you said mayors as well. who can he rely on the fight? corruption? the question, i think that's the right one is facing government. i the, you know, there are a lot of other sectors outside the inside the delivery address on all the wires they can bring the cost. i mean, the, the, the parties that are represented in congress are committed, as you said, they're reveals, and the, and i think you will need to bring the,
6:29 pm
the private sector in the sector which is very relevant to the dollar countries and a series of side. you will need to bring together all of these vectors and those national unity in ordinary resist call. these are bowers that will try to avoid any let us turn in the report we ran. you told our correspondence mental over apollo. you said expectations are so high now for this new president, do you think he can meet them? well, i think you need to score a few points waves during the 1st 6 months of novice. i mean, i expect patients are really high because people are expecting sydney as clean is dirt. is that fair for babies in the state? but it's very, very hard. you, especially you to have the support of the phone because it's telling you that the assistance of these can be just, you know, basic things. like,
6:30 pm
i mean by having the medicines and hospitals running water in school. do they come to, you know, schools that have a running water and tgc underscore, so we, we, she may be able to, to do with the file, but the will be very car. edgar ortiz, political risk consulting. thank you so much. and by the way, i misspoke earlier, i said he was president, he's obviously president elect. i misspoke. thank you very much for joining us on alpha 0 today. are still a head on alpha 0 will be in poland, where privatization migrant policies and raising the retirement age of causing divisions, the head of an election day referendum and cracking down on child sex abuse or is a court case in australia is highlighting how social media is eating offenders worldwide. also in sports, none of the world cup is over. we take a look of what's next,
6:31 pm
who is football. the last storm hillary has done to record rainfall in parts of california. it's been particularly bad in palm springs. so here's where the storm is right now. it will continue to weekend and eventually fragments and break apart as it moves over at northwest nevada state. now at the same time, a number of tropical storms have formed one in the caribbean sea and then a pair. india binds it, but there is only one we need to really pay attention to the others will dissipate . so it is tropical storm franklin, as it's tracking toward his spaniel. so this will impact both haiti and dominican republic. as we look toward tuesday, it's been all about record heat through texas and louisiana. temperatures are high here. this may turn into something tropical,
6:32 pm
but not likely it's still going to spread. a few showers for the coast of texas. temperatures are running high in d. c at 34 degrees quite for the us northeast. and here's some of the moisture from hillary coming in to oregon and montana state pushing some of that into canada. colona where the wildfire is burning, they're still breezy and yellow. now, for crews are battling against a wildfire there and persistent rain for the pacific coast of columbia, and then a bit of an atmosphere river here, stretching from the pacific into chilly, there is likely to be flooding in santiago, the from simple household appliances to military hardware and down to official intelligence, semi conductors are essential to the muslim world. 101 east didn't investigate how a shortage of supply is fueling. go back to between china and the us to control the industry. the global war at pacific and chips, which is era. here in the there's been

6:37 pm
just slogan, what's the future for poles? you got illegal immigration, a large number of people came. he's not to work but to benefit from social assistance. and the other hand, they also undermine security. but it won't be easy. ceiling for the incoming dublin when again, the opposition is hitting a government spending refugee numbers and claims of use of power persuade others. so when october 15th, we will vote kuchinski out. those who made money from your hard work will simply have to give us old back. but the likely king makers will be defraud right content that obviously a policy analysts say this social media and fresh leadership are appealing for young and 1st time voters. in addition to the elections, poles will be voting on the referendum consisting of 4 important issues. illegal says the opposition, but the ruling party says that is a gauge of what people think on important issues most come on stage media,
6:38 pm
p a s b does explain that referendum about privatization either the time and age emigration and the board defense with better roosters be able to show the even show the no option to voters a tactic see is the opposed by the civic platform and others? the referendum will help law and just as a party, mobilize voters, there are no spending limits on the referendum on like a link to our old campaign. so it can be sponsored by state owned or other institutions which will give the advantage to the ruling parties. critics of the government say it's diverting attention to issues which i'm not on the mean this course. most things are less than one percent of the population. and the campaigns are disproportionately targeted at perceived risk for migrants and different genes . usually if the political situation in full and for most lives and other minorities is not very favorable to the opposition of the left approaches, more openly a referendum. i don't think all votes in it, and that's a very sensible idea. in my opinion, we won't have to go to the election commission price for you on that of make my
