2:05 pm
yesterday it's really looking quite grim. you mentioned this is not a location known to have seen terrorist attacks in the past why was targeted. so clear as this today morning the police said that there was no link between the police station bombing this morning and the church attack yesterday or given the unique nature of both of these attacks. beautiful family that doing their children many of the things that there is a link. the islamic state has claimed. for yesterday's attack through a mosque news agency but it remains to be seen if there is some kind of sleeper cell by and police are actively investigating the city right now why is a country in a whole become a target for islamic state militants. well you know he is the world's largest
2:06 pm
muslim majority country and actually its rate of jihad is a capital that is extremely low one of the lowest in the world given that fact but you know because of the worldwide web and the nature of islam the propaganda which is completely global and permeates all social media if you're looking for it it's very easy for just such muslims to self radicalize which is how most of the seven hundred or so that nations joined the islamic state decided to go it's not the middle east actively or hurting here but because of the internet many people who go looking for that message and so radicalize journalist critical voting or speaking to us thank you very much thanks for having me now israeli troops have shot and killed more than twenty palestinians and wounded many more in protest along the gaza border the protesters are furious over the imminent move of the u.s. embassy to jerusalem mass demonstrations kicked off ahead of this in an afternoon's
2:07 pm
an operation of the american embassy in jerusalem activists have also called a general strike across the gaza strip last night israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu welcomed president donald trump's daughter ivanka her husband you're a christian or and other u.s. officials for a special dinner to mark the opening of the embassy. and let's bring in my ish waiter she is outside the new embassy and joins us hi maya so as we saw there our president trumps daughter a banker her husband here in question or they are attending the opening of this new u.s. embassy what message is the white house sending bice and dispatching them to jerusalem . this is a very good question i was at a press conference to me earlier today with a few prominent u.s. senators and this exact question was posed to them why are ivana and jared here and why is president trump not here why is not even the vice president or the secretary of state here and honestly these four senators did not want to answer the question
2:08 pm
they said well we'll let them speak for themselves but it does an interesting message of vulcan jarrett are seen as very high up very prominent in the american jewish community but that reputation has very much been tarnished over the past year and a half now of the trump presidency with a multitude of scandals them losing their security clearances and it's sort of a questionable masses yes ok among certain jewish circles of aachen jarrett are still very much beloved but they're not universally beloved anymore and they are definitely not seen as this paragon of a moderation in the way that they were supposed to be at the reputation that they had at the beginning of the administration well my you've also been talking to ordinary american citizens who have also traveled to jerusalem for this event why are they there. very simply because they love president trump and they're very happy about this embassy move we met a couple of people who are from texas traveled all the way to jerusalem from texas
2:09 pm
last night who were really really really eager to come on camera with me and talk about how much they love president trump and how happy they are about this embassy opening and i ran into another fellow who i'm familiar with who is from seattle washington state who traveled all the way here to witness this and there's another small clutch of americans who have been hanging around outside with the press are right now shouting and supporting president johnson who are generally very happy about what's happening today they really are this is something that supporters are thrilled about and they really see it as him for filling one of his campaign promises we have to remember during the campaign he said that he was going to be the u.s. president who would open an embassy in jerusalem unlike what many other u.s. presidents had promised him and backed away from and here he is he has in fact fulfilled that promise all right so you've seen a lot of support for this move meanwhile on the other hand we've also seen that there's been clashes between israelis and palestinians in gaza how serious have today's clashes been. in
2:10 pm
a word very my colleague tanya was commenting earlier that the numbers of dead and wounded that we see is normally something in the average sort of violent protest in this region those are numbers that you see sort of at the end of the day when things are over and it's just the middle of the afternoon people are really expecting things to unfortunately get much much worse but it is really quite a stark contrast when you hear about what's happening in gaza with people being shot and killed and hundreds injured when you walk around western roussillon today even in this neighborhood with streets being shut down it is very calm you would not know that anything was happening here today life is just going on as normal and it is such a comment on what life is like here in israel you can it's a very small country and you could be in in one cafe sitting and having a cup of tea were a couple kilometers away from you people are getting into scuffles with police and you wouldn't even know it's happening so just another just another day in the life of israel and the palestinian territories. covering the story for us from jerusalem
2:11 pm
thank you. and we'll be back in jerusalem in the next hour with our coverage of the opening ceremony of the new u.s. embassy there now to some other stories making headlines around the world armenia's new prime minister says he wants closer ties with moscow. and has met russian president vladimir putin thanking the country's traditional ally for what he called an even handed approach to his country's political crisis posture now took power a week ago after weeks of protests led to the resignation of the country's longtime leader french authorities say the attacker who stabbed to death one person and wounded four others on saturday in paris was on the counter terrorism watch list he was shot dead by police during the attack investigators say he was a french born french citizen born in the russian region of chechnya the so-called islamic state has claimed responsibility for the attack. in india at least seventy people are dead after winds of up to one hundred ten kilometers per hour buffeted
2:12 pm
the country's north the storm front also brought heavy rain causing chaos on the roads in the state of luther predation which is located to the east of the capital delhi. with more than a half of the votes counted in iraq's parliamentary elections nationalist shiite cleric. could be set to make a political comeback supporters cheered the news in baghdad where the cleric and his communist allies took the highest number of votes a victory would put al solder in a strong position to choose the next prime minister but he will have to overcome opposition from iran which is vowed to prevent his block from taking power the current prime minister hyderabadi is likely behind in third place. and we have to give you just do a karim with us here in our studio he was just in iraq of covering the elections and has returned jeff are you keeping a close eye on the vote count watching you tell us it could look so for the coalition iran to dust so there will be the winner of iraq is it actually we're
2:13 pm
seeing no. i just talked to someone from inside the commission and unofficial to know he's going to be the winner even after cantin mosul which is the second largest city in baghdad and everyone was thinking they're going to be a turn turn over because mosul is supporting al buddy but it wasn't enough so to know it looks like he's the winner but it's not official yet not official but still this is surprising i mean what did a rocky say who you spoke to well when you talk to iraqis two major topics are our dear interests which is corruption and sectarianism and what those soldiers did he did it pushed for an anti security and anti-corruption campaign and debts why people are connecting now to him that he might be able according to what he was saying with the with his coalition partner. that he might be able to fight six three in ism. and corruption and in his coalition he had the communist party and he
2:14 pm
had other secular. members in the list and i think this gate gives him a different image compared to the others so he has secular members in his the whole issue but he is a shiite cleric and yet you think his specific appeal is to voters i think today what he wants is to want he wants to have a united. and united iraq independent if you're a sectarian. a confession. it's enough to say you're sunni you're she your record your etc because that's what's really it's the main reason of bloodshed when you talk to people in iraq and that's one thing the second thing what he did he distance himself from iran and then it was something new because usually connected to iran in iraq so that's what's he did and it's a different point of view and he had he met a year ago he made the crown prince of saudi arabia so it's kind of because again
2:15 pm
this is connected to sectarianism which is when you say you're shia so you're connected to two to iran when you say you're sunni you might connect to saudi arabia and he is now in kind of middle position he's given free from the second example because people on the ground are fed up also from interference of foreign policy from the u.s. from iran from saudi arabia and he might be the person who might change it but only might because it's campaigning because all over in iraq you have big posters and everyone is saying on the right one was doing it again we're seeing you know on the street and the point of his supporters just their evening where even chanting and saying iran is now out of iraq iran is not out of iraq so and he presents himself the person who is very close to the poor people and very attached to the normal average people in iraq but i have to ask you about u.s. backed body because people expected him to do better what i think about is connected the law. for years corruption again is the corruption is connected to
2:16 pm
corruption but yes we see one of the picture here. was connected to corruption people had big hope that he might fight corruption but today if you look to transparency international ranking concerning corruption iraq is still the last places so it's like they are fed off from the whole corruption thing and even most who is supposed to get he was supposed to get more votes in mosul it didn't happen also because he was the one saying we defeated in mosul but the results we have now speak another language so it seems unofficial to know that a souther is the winner right we're still waiting for an official vote count. karim thank you very much for your insights. and meanwhile iran's foreign minister has begun a world tour to try and save the country's nuclear pact after u.s. president trumps withdrawal left on the brink of collapse mohamed zarif has arrived in moscow where he has met his russian counterpart sergey lavrov sorry if it is seeking assurances from tehran's ally that it will stay in the deal and won't cave
2:17 pm
in to u.s. pressure and reimposed sanctions on iran on his tour sorry if it's already visited china after moscow he'll stop off in brussels to meet the deals european signatories. and that is because iran wants to know how europe plans to respond to those sanctions and sunni iran is giving europe sixty days to confirm the status of the nuclear treaty and guarantee they'll stick to its terms the iranian parliament's website says the e.u. must confirm that the treaty will remain in force even after the united states withdraws iran has asked for a pledge from the european union that economic agreements will be upheld but that may be difficult because the u.s. also sanctions european companies who do business with iran. u.s. president donald trump says he is negotiating with the chinese president to ensure that chinese telecom giant said he isn't affected by an american technology sales
2:18 pm
bad writing on twitter from said he had issued instructions for officials to come up with a rescue plan saying too many jobs were at stake trump tweeted president of china and i are working together to give massive chinese phone companies the way to get back into business fast said to you close eighty thousand people and said last week that its major operations had seized after being banned for seven years from buying critical american technology raising the possibility of its total collapse. that's another erratic move from the u.s. president one might think or is there was frantically behind this stunning cold at the frankfurt stock exchange our financial correspondent what are you hearing there what's behind trump support for the chinese telecoms company. a first you're absolutely right it is irritating so investors here also were rather surprised about this latest treat once again first we have to remember why those sanctions or
2:19 pm
originally were actually implemented this was happening after is e.t.e. pled guilty of making illegal shipments to iran and north korea but what's now all behind of this does the u.s. president really care that much about jobs that could be lost in china we have to remember that he has consistently accused china off stealing u.s. american jobs so reading this week now make many feel that this is actually a dramatic shift for mr trump we also have to keep in mind that the concession to beijing comes ahead of high level trade talks later this week in washington with a goal to escalate the trade dispute between the two world's largest economies so all of this could also maybe consider as a charm offensive on the tram before this meeting. it's monday today what can we expect this week. yes exactly they were reporting season is in full swing this week big companies like siemens thought a telecom and r. w. you will open their books and on thursday the focus off in westerners will be on
