post. this is news coming to you live from the push for peace in afghanistan the u.s. says talks with the taliban in qatar are making progress but what will be the price for ending seventeen years of war given the terrible legacy of the taliban in afghanistan is it something the population wants we'll have the latest from kabul also coming up. the pressure grows on canada's prime minister justin trudeau after a second cabinet minister resigned over a construction construction bribery scandal but trudeau's allies say he's preparing

to fight his corner. and france is president gets a polite response from european leaders to his open letters european citizens. who have a cause of less fear that he's warning against nationalism and calling for far reaching reforms on defense and cybersecurity. hello i'm terry martin good to have you with us and we have more on those stories in just a moment first reports are coming in from afghanistan that a suicide bomber has blown himself up in the eastern city of jalalabad several people are feared dead the attacker is said to have detonated his explosives near a construction company near the city's airport. talks between the

taliban and u.s. officials aimed at ending the violence in the country continue in qatar the have launched a charm offensive to try to win over the international community and its former foes. malawi kalamu dean once wielded enormous power he led the enforcement of taliban regulations during their rule of afghanistan from one thousand nine hundred ninety six to two thousand and one now he's hoping for a comeback as the taliban in the u.s. hold peace talks after years of guerrilla warfare the taliban want to be in charge again callum again says that's long overdue. to see the removal of afghans want to live in the shari'a law again about how a holy war wasn't in vain that. all afghans want to shari'a law again not just the holy warriors from the taliban.

afghanistan under taliban rule movie theaters destroyed films burnt everything considered western was strictly forbidden men were forbidden from shaving their beards women were forced to wear burkas infractions were met with severe punishment prison or death by stoning kalamu doing today has a different spin on this brutal oppression. we never punished anyone back then those people advice and if we threatened anyone because he didn't have a beard it wasn't because we wanted to it's one of god's commandments the men as covering up for women. who want to be a law must accept these rules. afghanistan is a conservative islamic society but the country has changed in recent years more than half the population is under the age of eighteen most young afghans want the war to end but they reject the idea of others telling them how to live their lives

. at least there isn't censorship of the internet not yet anyway. i'm afraid if a taliban is not just the internet we would lose all of our freedoms. the taliban present themselves as more moderate than before but now we calum again appears on talk shows to promote his interpretation of islam but western analysts consider this a charm offensive not a sign of long term change. in the vital to secure individual and democratic rights this is doubtful with the taliban they haven't presented any clear ideas about how they see the future of afghanistan. compromises are inevitable to end the war with the taliban these are likely to come at a high price. for more we're joined by latif he's

a journalist based in kabul we'll talk about those peace talks between us and tell about a moment but we're getting news this morning of a ball attack in jalalabad what more can you tell us about. right now that still initial information the only thing we really know that it's seems to have been targeting a construction site a construction company near the airport which itself isn't in the city it's out of the city on the way to the crossing which leads to the duran line and eventually on to the other signing. but what we have to know about ending our airport is that it's not a civilian airport it's been a military airport at least since the same since the u.s. invasion and so whatever the target is it seems like the target is definitely something related to the military and security forces if it does indeed end up being the airport because it's not civilian you know commercial airport

ok let's get on to those peace talks that are happening right now in in qatar between the u.s. and the taliban the u.s. is negotiating with the taliban even though u.s. secretary of state mike pump aoe this week called them terrorists how do ordinary people in afghanistan feel about this. you know everyone except for maybe a very small minority wants peace in the country at everyone is looking for peace and everyone is looking for the best way to approach peace the issue with these current talks is that there is no real actual avlon at the table other than the toll of oil so essentially the taleban and the u.s. representatives on why how it's odd was technically of on but he served as the u.s. ambassador to afghanistan he is there in the capacity as the u.s. representative is not there to represent the people of afghanistan or the government of afghanistan he is there to represent the united states right now you

know the taliban government they want to look they wanted to thousand and one they're speaking directly to the u.s. but there's no zero actual have on of the table to represent the wants of the people or of the current government ok well if the afghan government the afghan people are not even present at those talks and doha what does that say about washington's expectations for the taliban after a u.s. withdrawal i think at this point washington really doesn't care at this point washington just wants out especially under. trump is very adamant you know if you look back at his history at the way he's referred to collarbone and the way he's referred to the war and i want to know he's call it a disaster is call it a waste of money call it a mistake you call it all of these things even before he was ever president and inherited as inherited the war as the new commander in chief and ironically it was just earlier in the beginning of two thousand and eighteen where he said i refuse

to negotiate with the taliban because there is a spate of very deadly attacks in kabul and jalalabad where he said you know they're killers the murderers whatever and you know that i refused to speak to them i mean about ten or eleven months later his officials are sitting there is a point is on my hands ard and they are speaking directly to that all of on and as much as you know is on my phones on says that we are trying to get the government of us on. it's. there's no real evidence that that's happening any time soon. thank you so much for your insights join us on the t.v. there in kabul. now to china where fears are growing about human rights after it's emerged that the government there has begun penalizing citizens who engage in anti social behavior some twenty three million people have been blocked from buying plane or train tickets for offenses such as not paying taxes or walking a dog without a leash the report shine

a light on how china is using personal data not only to boost prosperity but also to tighten control. china a vast nation with a booming economy that produces masses of data. more than eight hundred million people here use the internet and they've embraced digital life like almost no other society payments orders bookings it's all done by smartphone. china's population is a gigantic bubbling source of data that veritable boon to chinese companies like the successful voice recognition firm i fly take the company says they take data protection seriously but they need to use the data to improve their software in a world all that data is used to create a better to their human save time to increase their efficiency to create more value jobs so i won't i suggest or not care so much about china's government is also

constantly collecting data cameras are everywhere many are used for facial recognition chinese society doesn't get to say but people here are generally well disposed towards technological changes at the same time there's increasing awareness about data protection and rules are getting stricter for companies data is the oil it leave for leisure society so we know that data is very important for most alertly for the artificially tell it is industry etc so. we know that we have to sacrifice or to contribute a certain amount of information data to the company for them to learn this flood of data is given china's authoritarian government more control over the people they're aiming to build a nationwide social credit system to collect a wide range of data on all citizens like how responsibly they pay their debts so far only pilot projects are in place. compiling essential mechanism that will give

advantages to those who are trustworthy and restrict those who disappoint us it's aimed at honoring honesty. commission when. millions of chinese people have already been blacklisted and apart from flying the list of dishonest people is publicly available on the internet while it's hard to predict the exact shape and extent of china's digital future many fear there is a very fine line between smart city and total surveillance. now to some of the other stories making headlines around the world today venezuela's president nicolas maduro has vowed to crush what he's condemned as a crazed minority seeking to remove him from power he's pressing his supporters to join so-called anti imperialist marches at the weekend opposition leader says he'll step up the pressure on the doro the u.s. is considering new sanctions against the government. talks between british and

european union breaks that negotiators in brussels have ended with no agreement and e.u. officials said the talks did not go well both sides will meet again on wednesday with london just over three weeks away from leaving the block with out the deal. and clashes between riot police and revelers have broken out at the rio de janeiro carnival officers dispersed thousands of fans gathered for a performance by singer moved me there are conflicting reports over why police intervened with some local media reporting they were trying to stop a brawl among concert goers. new polls from canada show support for canadian prime minister justin trudeau has fallen for the first time behind the main opposition party it comes after a second cabinet minister quit in protest at the way trudeau has been handling

a scandal involving a construction company and bribery. justin trudeau still knows how to work a crowd but his days as politics mr nice guy may be gone for good just as he's campaigning for reelection a clear favorite only months ago he suddenly fighting an uphill battle after second minister quit his cabinet over a bribery scandal trudeau tried to put a positive spin on the resignation. of democracy like ours and in the space where we value our diversity so strongly we're allowed to have disagreements and debate we even encourage chain fill pot was in charge of canada's finances until she resigned on monday she accuses the government of putting political interests above the rule of law global conglomerate s. and c. level is the major player in canada's construction sector it stands accused of paying kickbacks to secure lucrative contracts in libya if convicted of corruption

it will not be able to tender for canadian government contracts putting thousands of jobs at risk. in february attorney general and justice minister jody wilson raybold was the first to go she says trudeau and senior government figures had pressured her to stop the prosecution of s. and c. level lawyer for i experienced a consistent and sustained effort by many people within the government to seek to politically interfere in the exercise of prosecutorial discretion in my role as the attorney general of canada traduce denies any wrongdoing but his popularity is sliding with elections that for october he's now polling behind the rival conservatives. earlier we spoke with campbell clark's chief political writer at canada's globe and mail newspaper which broke the scandal we asked him whether more resignations are likely to follow. it doesn't appear that more like it of all the

moment there are one or two in cavite that we think probably sympathized with the first one being the minister of justice issue very general judy will sit raible so that it seems they're all on board for now these are two very important cabinet ministers not only because of their positions but because of who they were joined also rebuilt was the first indigenous woman and they were named justice minister in canada and that was considered a highly symbolic trudeau appointment and. the second person j. philip thought who is the treasury board president she is known for being a highly principled highly ethical and competent person and those two people the two strong women in cabinet saying we don't have faith in just a true it true anymore that's the real damage there france's president emmanuel mccaw has called for far reaching the reforms and warned against the dangers of populism three months ahead of the european parliamentary elections he laid out his

vision in an open letter addressed to the citizens of europe news outlets in all twenty eight you member states published a letter in which he said we are at a pivotal moment for our confidence a moment when together we need to politically and culturally reinvent the shape of our civilization in a changing world is the moment for european renewal here's more on the menu on the cons big ideas and how they've been received so far. french president in manuel micron's latest pro european initiative has been widely met with positive reactions across the e.u. member states in his home country concerns over the far right fueled support. i think it's important because as we can see in eastern europe there are more and more parties like victor or buns in hungary nationalist parties that are against freedom of the press against freedom of democracy because meanwhile in berlin

a longtime ally of friends an official statement from german chancellor angela merkel spokesperson said the german government supports the quote lively discussion about the orientation of the e.u. proposals also prompted calls from germany's opposition for berlin to show more of its own initiative one of the you will most of the government must finally wake up from its hibernation in european politics i just currently acting according to them or to which european project are we shifting died this week be it the digital tax be a whistleblower protection. with european elections just three months away but when is widely supported micron's calls to prevent the manipulation of elections ones that stay here i already see what's being demanded of democracy as i'd never have imagined a couple of years ago or that we're really in a situation again we were having to fight for democracy so that is certainly a step in the right direction. but in view they think at least as

a strong it's important to do something but i don't know if an agency for democracy would be the right thing because i had a feeling while some italians in rome supported a united europe now everyone is convinced that mccrone is the man to steer the e.u. back on track. i welcome the european union. i welcome a reconciliation with france with germany because italy in europe and europe. italy sure but i said it is a euro file so you can definitely create a more prone to spirit but as leader of europe i don't know that a little in hungary however the far right populist government dismissed micron's call for voters to rejects nationalists in upcoming p. and in that actions voters too seemed less concerned. with their i think it will be somewhere in the middle i don't believe that the extreme right

will make such big gains that's what i think but i'm not an expert on that. but you . while some critics complain that micron suggestions don't go far enough toward solving europe's problems others claim that his appeal aims only to feel one thing his personal campaign for main european elections. to myanmar now where authorities are battling a deepening drugs crisis this week police seized more than ten million meth pills with of street value of almost twelve million euros yet another massive haul in a country thought to be the world's largest producer of methamphetamine north eastern shan state is the epicenter of meth production with the network of local armed groups linking up with transnational truck trafficking gangs but it's the rampant drug use in myanmar itself which is causing major concern as drug gangs

push cheap pills to a growing number of addicts. is a shame to go home. the twenty seven year old has been a drug addict for almost a decade. he left his village for fear of gang violence but he's real escape as being crystal meth. i use drugs because i get depressed. and they help keep me calm. and. this is the drug of choice for many in myanmar is called yabba locally may have come down at rock bottom prices the u.n. calls it a ruthless strategy to feed local demand. so we're looking at increasing use across the country demand is rising. a youth population which is very vulnerable and a lack of health infrastructure it's it's a crisis looming right now if it's not there already. could guy

a key town on the supply route to shan states illegal meth labs. in the river and so man and other church goes sticks have been fighting the rampant drug use here which is turn parts of the town into no go zones. anonymous death threats both the vigilante operations to a halt but the rivers work continues in the community. his baptist church also serves as a refute and rehab center. i nine when was a heavy yaba and heroin user he's been trying to kick the habit since two thousand and fourteen. when i ran away once because i couldn't control myself. they dragged me back here and explained all about it to me after that i

really suffered only sleep for several days. in the seclusion of rehab unknown wien keep his addiction in chick with music and prayer. but outside on the streets a sense to battles with these demons in the thick of men miles run away drug crisis . football for you now we're talking about the best football club in europe for three years running it's been knocked from the champions league real madrid is out thanks to a surprise last at home i axed the club from out of saddam dominated the second leg of this time in madrid to overcome a deficit from the first leg and win five three on aggregate meanwhile it was harry kane providing the touch for tottenham as the english brushed aside bonus league at leaders dortmund for till the total score after two matches.

or talk about all this we've got are so busy from our sports sparkman here in the studio hey or so the reigning champion of frail a driv out why well they've been struggling for a while now in the league at home in the spanish league their twelve points behind league leaders barcelona so they're pretty well don't have a good chance of winning the spanish title they've been knocked out of the spanish cup the copa del rey and frankly in this first leg against the dutch team i.x. of amsterdam even though they won two to one away in amsterdam they were not the better side and so in the second leg that the team took the game to them and that's the way to do it against a team that supposedly on paper is stronger than you and the first goal was scored early in the first half by hakim's ziac and yet rather and then second goal by the dutch side that was a nag and both goals were scored thanks to passes by douche on top of each a serbian midfielder who had struggled for four years in the premier league but he

said that night that was the best game of his life and then he scored a spectacular goal himself early in the second half three no up pulled back one goal to make it three one but then finally the dutch scored another one for one to win overall five to three on aggregate in this game and it was just amazing high stakes game very exciting in your opinion would you say rebel were too weak or strong both i mean ryall were struggling for the reasons i just gave but also i aks of amsterdam has a pedigree and they created total football. back in the seventy's and they were trying to emulate that again in this game and also they didn't have any respect for real madrid which is also the way to go against the big name team is still the game take the game to them and see what happens all france is the best defense in this case for the second dortmund there were hoping for a wonder for some sort of miracle they didn't get it one well that they they copied i axes strategy take the game to them you know so they took the game again. and

they created chances tons of chances eleven shots on goal in the first half mark royce was everywhere in this game and they couldn't score that was the end result after the first half and then early in the second half the big gun came out harry kane and he's a little scoring machine and he made it one nil for the for the british side and they have danced then for nothing they were just too strong for dortmund very briefly are more surprises coming up this evening well there's an amazing game. p.s.g. is up against manchester united they won in manchester the french side did and now they're going to go up against at home probably be able to beat the manchester side the match of the side is missing ten starters there got five players teenagers from their football academy that's all desperate is but their coach by an amazing norwegian who came off the bench once in one thousand nine hundred to win the champions league for manchester united and that is. not so scare to win two to one against match night in extra time he says anything is possible or it says it from
