this is the doubly news live from victory for spain socialists in the country's general election but now they face tough choices prime minister petros sanchez's posse falls short of majority meaning difficult coalition talks lie ahead we'll bring you the latest from madrid. also on the program the heavy days of people's uprising. walking around you can feel the try to not only in public space. gatherings like this but do not have. the protests of press t.v. or photographers committed to capturing the revolution. bands face coverings in the aftermath

a feast of islamist militants new attacks. new voices for turkey international broadcasters including to respond to the government's crackdown on independent media with the launch of a new huge. time for the program spain's governing socialist won the country's national election before then well short of a parliamentary majority with just twenty nine percent of the vote prime minister pedro sanchez must now attempt to form a coalition government process that could take a weeks or even months sunday's vote also so a far right party to the parliament for the first time since the end of military rule in one nine hundred seventy five vox took ten percent of the vote. the reality sinks in an election that leaves no party in power many in spain were relieved

however that the far right had not done even better than it did at the polls. but i mean yes because hopeful for me i think it's a good result insincerely i didn't expect it i thought the right wing was going to win so it's cool for me. but i mean. me but then we think that the socialist victory is good and now there is hope that the bad guys don't win. the socialist party leader petro sanchez had explicitly pitched his party to voters as the best way to stop the far right. the spaniards have sent a very clear message to europe and to the world it is possible to win the against reactionaries and authoritarianism with progressive proposals. but sanchez faces an uphill battle forming a ruling coalition the far right party vox may not have won but it still had

a record night this election marks the first time a far right party has gained seats in the spanish parliament since the days of general franco. restore so no three c.p.o. this is only the beginning you know i'm also not a complete told you i aim was to retake power and that's exactly what we have done yet if you don't have a listen if we have a voice in parliament we can now say loud and clear to the entire country that folks has come to stay. the mainstream conservative people's party suffered big losses it was their worst election to date a sign that the polarization that has affected politics across europe has come to spain possibly for a long time to come. straight to the spanish capital then where we joined a delhi correspondent a public welcome pablo so what. is his options for forming a coalition government. well first and foremost it's going to be difficult for him that's for sure because of course he folds quite far short of

a majority he has expressed a desire along with the number two and a socialist government capable to govern alone just with basically the support somehow of party such as me that's put him most of course that's the ontario stereotype party and regional parties too but he also has a rule i like the idea of entering into government with that we need us but then once he said that in an interview in the days leading up to the election on sunday . we're going to have a few weeks now of a negotiations and everybody is waiting here in spain with bated breath to see who exactly pedro sanchez or how he decides to form his new government let's talk about the far right the vox you have. seen. how much influence other locked into how. well do you fluency i mean that they have ten percent of the vote so they've come here with you know a significant percentage considering that have the last time around and even have

an m.p. in twenty sixteen they said that their plan is essentially to make a noise and this is just the beginning of vox their idea is basically to make people and realize what they're about what their policies are about and that way they can grow as a party so that next time around they'll they'll grow and they seem to be pretty certain that. they've used the word which i suppose has has surprised and shocked some people in spain which is that i ceased n.p.i. which means resistance now what that means exactly is a little bit unsure but basically their plan is to make changes in spain and they want spain to go in a slightly different direction to the one that we're seeing it going and not with. a list of a good conservative people's party its worst national results what does this tell us about the state of spain's political. it's more really that political right where we've really seen the changes because we've seen how the sort of more conservative parties have fractured into three essentially those who are sort of

a liberal center party swung more to the right the p.p.d. at the people's party it was felt perhaps went too far to the right and sort of didn't manage to talk into their more moderate and center voters who left the party and perhaps voted for the nose that was a very good night was a very good night for them and even voters who went from the party of people out to the socialists and they said today that they need to reflect and they need to see what direction they should take the party and from now but certainly it is being a terrible night for the people's party under particular for their leader public us out of. public. dread thank you. processes in sudan have welcomed a breakthrough in talks with the leaders have agreed to form a joint council to pave the way to civilian rule mass demonstrations prompted the military to remove saddam's longtime president last month and one photographer has been cataloguing the uprising you don't use i.e.

abraham and melanie could have to bow and talked with him in the capital cost to. for thirty two year old mohammed this is history in the making has been documented the sudanese uprising since it started in the suburb today he's taking pictures of the incoming caravans joining the demonstrators in front of the army headquarters in the capital such. as. my pictures are for the coming generations the suffering experienced by people in my photos should not be forgotten. when we took to the streets we were just calling for our rights we should not have been met with some of the violence we see in the pictures of the sort. at the heart of the protest area mohammad displays his photos for his fellow students. in many ways the ongoing fit in has become a microcosm of what the people here want their sudan to be walking around you can feel the pride they have not only in reclaiming public space but also their freedom

gatherings like this would not have been possible under the old regime. a larger art movement has emerged from the uprising even this billboard has taken on new meaning protesters have hung clothing in honor of military personnel who disobeyed orders and refused to open fire at them and there are. some that says his photography not only documents the revolution it is also a way to help the people who needed. to get out of this picture shows a man waving a flag as he is being loaded on to the back of a truck. they will be using him and punching him so that he put the flag down and see saddam holding up the flag card so. you know that's a picture help to get this man released because it spread so much so they were able to locate him and have him freed. your right. for passers by mohammed's work

reflects a turning point for sudan and its people. i feel loved when i see the details of these pictures the sadness where. these pictures are an expression of the bravery the strength and the patriotism of people who have overcome thirty years of oppression under a corrupt regime. to display shows that sudan has a lot of artists and people with many talents. and good mohammad realizes that this newfound freedom is very fragile and that a lot of work needs to be done for the spirit of the sit in to be made a political reality. that we learned as a people that we can be united and we can be one hand in this transitional period we the sudanese people have to accept each other. does not know what exactly the future holds for sudan but he is determined to bear witness to it with his camera. to some of the other stories making news around the world at

labor from africa and asia but domestic workers often find themselves trapped in a system where they need their employers to sponsor them in order to gain legal residency that leaves them at the mercy of employers and according to amnesty international i think creased risk of abuse. the cafe or system essentially binds migrant workers to their employer from the moment they enter the country it grants employers wide ranging powers facilitates forced labor and leaves workers vulnerable to abuse and exploitation if you look at me in lebannon there are more than two hundred fifty thousand foreign workers coming from asian and african countries to work in homes and really these workers are exempt from the normal labor laws because they're subject to the cut filesystem his you know it's not you don't make that the amnesty international says the lebanese authorities make little effort to bring abusive employers to account workers can be arrested and deported

if their employer reports them as having absconded from their job even if they're fleeing abuse passport confiscation is common practice making it even more difficult for migrant workers to escape exploitative labor conditions better than it was a year they treat us like slaves first of all with the car filesystem the employer can control us in whichever way they want other people our employer can send us away whenever he wants i don't have the right to refuse i have to do whatever she wants. did she was in the way that donald. ethiopia has banned its citizens from domestic work in lebannon but still they find ways to come here is what there are hundreds of workers in houses being imprisoned and not getting their rights not even their days off. they don't even pay their salary they make them work into houses to watch the women entering lebannon as domestic workers are the most at risk under the cuff ls system suicide rates among them are high and many die in

issues that are not up for negotiation are human rights freedom of expression civil rights the political system and the national constitution those are all red lines. both the u.s. and russia have tried to do with the taliban to the negotiating table so far without success the u.s. special representative appeared on afghan t.v. to outline the conditions for a peace deal. long term ceasefire will be necessary for a deal to be reached as well as a commitment to dong to him peace. so far the taliban has refused to enter into talks with the afghan government. and the w. has teamed up with other major international broadcasters to launch a new source of independent information for turkey plus ninety stars today on you tube is a joint venture between t.w. the b.b.c. france. and the voice of america is being launched in response to the turkish government's restrictions on reporting on the jailing of independent journalists.
