this is the line from a caravan of migrant santas mexico on its way to the united states ignoring president trump's warnings to stay away crowds have now broken through mexico's border with guatemala mexico's appealing to the not united nations to intervene doesn't trump was trying to cut aid to any country that allows the migrants through also on the program the killing of a powerful police commander sends shock waves through afghanistan and casts a shadow over this weekend's parliamentary elections as general abdul razzaq is

laid to rest both in kandahar province has been postponed. and. european union's top court orders warsaw to reinstate supreme court judges who have been forced to retire the e.u. says poland's new laws which triggered massive protests this year are a threat to judicial independence. i'm for welcome to the program caravan of central american migrants has broken through guatemala's border with mexico as i had no to the united states thousands of people set off from honduras last weekend and the last few hours some of them are reported to have torn down a border gate to get to a bridge between guatemala and mexico mexico has called for assistance from the united nations as tensions with washington escalate over the crisis. well the

u.s. position to donald trump out a warning for mexico and the guatemalan migrants i just want to thank the mexican government because they're stopping it hopefully before it ever gets to. that as you know i'm willing to send the military to defend our southern border if no sister. well let's let's bring in washington correspondent to munge way to welcome it was bad enough when the american government was locking up migrant children ugly really going to send soldiers to shoot a tired hungry people well this is something that donald trump loves to talk about when he's at these big rallies that he's giving all over the country right now because of the coming midterm elections which is really just this umbrella hanging over everything and really defining everything that's happening in u.s. politics right now this is something that trump can very much point to as part of

his. immigration policy his foreign policy from the beginning of his campaign or one of the biggest points of his campaign was building this wall with mexico and now he has this caravan and others like it that he can point to and say see this is why we need this is also very much changing mexican politics we should say we have a changeover of power that's going to be happening in mexico shortly and while the current president is saying he wants to work with the united states on issues like this the incoming president is saying no we're not going to let the u.n. we're not going to do the dirty work of the u.s. for them they have to do it themselves so this is a valving problem that doesn't look like there's an end in sight and it's going to be changing the policies of both these countries very strongly to come as you say with midterm elections on the way mexico certainly sees is aware of that backdrop i mean it's clearly not taking president trump's threats to see this leap is the foreign minister louise video guy. united states is in the middle

of an election campaign in less than three weeks time there are elections and i believe that we must well you know put those types of declarations we need to put them into context on cannot give them greater importance. so picking up on your point that it could be the these events are actually helping president trump. well as we said this is definitely something he can point to and this is definitely going to become a talking point as we get closer and closer to these elections because the sorts of images that we're seeing of people rushing the border very much bolster this narrative that he likes to promote of people invading the country and supports his immigration policy of needing to take the country back and keep people like this out and now he's also made comments about needing to fix the southern border that we have a horrendous immigration policy that needs reform and this is something that democrats

actually do agree with republicans on the immigration in the united states the immigration policies need reform but it's a huge difference of opinion as to exactly how these things need reform and issues like this just apply more pressure to policy these situations and these types of policies but surely in washington thank you. afghanistan holds parliamentary elections tomorrow but the event has been overshadowed by the killing of one of the country's most powerful security figures kandahar police chief general abdul razzaq was buried on friday he and two others were killed in a gun attack while attempting a high level security conference the deaths come as a blow to the western backed government and raise questions over the stability in the south of afghanistan voting in kandahar province has been postponed for a week with all the uncertainty surrounding afghanistan's elections candidates clearly have plenty of reasons to worry one of them is an afghan american who was

born and raised in the united states but she's undeterred and she's campaigning for change. miriam solemn and pale is not a typical candidate but she sees her mix of american upbringing and afghan family traditions as an advantage in a modern afghanistan that's looking for change. that could she elders are standing behind me and every time i sit with them they tell me that the men were able to bring these changes but we have faith that women are women are able to feel our pain and see the corruption and see what's wrong she takes us along on her campaign trail to jalalabad here she meets with the local leader of her tribe the kuchi they are nomads for whom a certain number of seats in parliament are reserved as a coochie suckle lanka has a good chance of being elected the tribal elders are dissatisfied with the male opponents who they see as only looking after their own personal interests in contrast salamanca listens to cooties are often discriminated against in

afghanistan and have little opportunities to advance socially. but the ones who don't have schools they don't have water they don't have roads on one hand they're being killed by the told by the news of shields and on the other hand the government accuses them of being taliban so they're stuck in between two two rocks jalalabad lies in the east of afghanistan where the taliban still stage attacks when merriam's the main colors here she brings a bodyguard with her she's already received many threats if i said i wasn't afraid i would be lying i am afraid but i am more afraid for these people who are coming and visiting me. so the main cowboy says her support for the direct peace talks currently being negotiated between the us and the radical islamists even if the talks could lead to the taliban partially coming to power in afghanistan i think that now that women are included in the peace process it's really a big step but at the same time i think that the taliban from what i hear realize

that women and inclusive ready in the government is really important for afghanistan in the future. and even if she doesn't win the election salamanca wants to stay in afghanistan instead of returning to the u.s. she says regardless of the outcome there's much work yet to be done. now to some of the other stories making news around the world sweden is to prosecute a twenty one year old student who refused to sit down on a plane due to depart from gothenburg russia tried to prevent the deportation of an afghan asylum seeker. made international headlines by broadcasting her protest live on facebook. at least fifty nine people are dead after a high speed commuter train ran into a large crowd at a festival near the northern indian city of. according to local media people had gathered to celebrate and you'll hindu festival but failed to hear the train approach of the sound of firecrackers. macedonia's parliament has voted in
