well you. think. this is news live from berlin sardines have swarmed the squares of rome protesters turned out in the italian capital to show their office ition to the immigrant league party led by divisive politician tayo salving also in the show gridlock at the u.n. climate conference is crucial deadlines looming the world leaders still can't agree on funding or international rules to slow global warming climate activists there want immediate action and big decisions for the climate and. plus the u.n.

says authorities in chile are guilty of serious human rights violations for the treatment of protesters people have taken to the streets again demanding changes from the government and investigations into police behavior. on nick spicer thanks for joining us tens of thousands of people gathered in rome to protest against the divisive rhetoric of far right leader mitt tayo salvini and his anti emigration league party the movement started just a month ago as a flash mob participants adopted the name sardines as they aim to fill public squares as tightly as the little fish tucked into tin cans. many say it's a youth led movement but people of all ages showed up in rome on saturday. there

calling for more humanity and less racism in italian politics it's only been a month since the saudi movement was spawned but this weekend tens of thousands assembled from around the country they gathered in piazza sanjay vani a traditional rallying spot for leftwing demonstrations. that's what i want to sort of alluding to we certainly have values much closer to the left than to the right but i believe that at this stage with the supremacist populist front so powerful and impetuous a progressive front is much more necessary than the left front see stuff you could see was. that concern widespread support for this man material salvini right wing populist leader of the league currently italy's biggest political party they may win a historic victory in regional elections next month. then you name it it's not being against slovenia as

a person. to the leak to any other force which behaves unacceptably and uses violent language i say no. and that us weiser danes were bond to say no and to start saying yes again it needs yet it is. there also singing. the anthem of italian anti fascism. earlier i spoke with rome based journalist seem a good about the sardine movement i asked her whether it might develop from a street level protest into a political force in government. well the difference perhaps between this movement and the 5 star movement is that it's not about populous ideas and there's no leader as such in the way that the 5 star movement had bet big really oh the comedian turned politician in so in that sense it's different and this very categorically they don't want any representation of any political party no band has no flags of

any party is allowed at any of these gatherings but i think a lot of political observers as well are looking at this and wondering well this actually resulted anything is is what you watch as well i mean is it going to be a political party as such and i think the key test will be in the regional election that is expected next month and that's of the region of a 1000000 romagna where below nia is located the 1st spot where we saw this gathering created this election is going to be watched because a new level mana is technically a very left leaning a region it is all great and good to see who weight changes towards the far right party of the league now that's what not to use all the need has been campaigning for and he successfully did that in the regional area in the center of it which we saw in elections earlier this year change towards the center right party so i think that's we're going to see whether it's just about

a gathering in pizza or is it going to translate into votes ok sima gupta thanks so much for that a sudanese court has sentenced the country's ousted president omar al bashir to 2 years in detention after convicting him of corruption charges will be held in a correctional center for the elderly because he's over 70 the former dictator was ousted in april and still faces legal questions about the civil uprising that preceded his ouster more than 250 people were killed then bashir is also wanted by the international criminal court in the hague for crimes against humanity. i've a 2 year sentence for a dictator is not enough for them the calls for justice and blood for blood continue. they've seen the man who ruled sudan for a generation imprisoned that they want to see him charged with more crimes.

we've had this are probably supposed to head to the gallows directly and they're trying on charges of corruption we don't care about the money we care about the marchers and the crimes committed in darfur and south sudan we have no interest in these charges. prosecutors say bashir had millions of dollars worth of foreign currency in grain sacks at his home he claims it was given to him by the saudi crown prince money laundering and corruption convictions will now see him detained for 2 years but that doesn't come close to satisfying the demands for justice by many who claim to have suffered under omar bashir has rule their revolution they say is far from over. and now to some of the other stories making news around the world. 6 days after the deadly eruption of volcano new zealand's authorities are searching for the last 2 missing bodies divers are searching the contaminated waters around white island disaster has killed at least 15 people. the

participants means it's dragging on into saturday for the past 2 weeks representatives have been trying to agree on new emissions targets in line with crucial 2020 deadlines they were set by the landmark paris agreement on greenhouse gases and global warming. correspondent. is in madrid for us and joins me now sonia has this summit failed. well i think it's kind of uncertain at this stage where the delegates will really stay at the table till they have an accord or whether they will walk away without an agreement now earlier to press briefing the chilean presidency of the summit was insistent that we'll get an agreement today there are means to be seen what kind of an agreement that could be and it will come through however many campaign groups here in n.g.o.s who have really piled on the pressure on political leaders here in recent weeks to concrete action they are already angry and frustrated some of said

the summit has already field in its overarching goal of getting countries especially the big polluters to commit to a mission starts to to cut their carbon emissions which they say is absolutely critical if the world is to avoid critical levels and what are some of the biggest obstacles holding up a decision here. well that have huge divergences between countries on a number of issues now this is you know when it comes to climate finance mitigate adaptation transfer of technology to developing nations now there are some observers have spoken to have seen some recent draft statements from the summit and they have called it completely weak they say they lack it lacks the kind of commitments that are needed to kind of inject momentum into the faltering process some campaigners have spoken to here are saying you know that they're outraged at what they're saying is a total disconnect between what the science is saying about rising temperatures what millions of climate protesters around the world are calling for and what these

negotiations here are actually delivering. kind of divergence of opinion. and indecision still possible to think. very difficult to say you know i mean there's a lot of wrangling right now going on and very deep technical issues one of them is one how to structure global carbon markets how to deal with all credits of the kyoto regime another major stumbling block is how to compensate countries that are affected or at that are really reeling from climate change impacts which cannot be prevented or adapted to so i think these talks are still bogged down in very kind of complicated tricky issues there's a lot of political wrangling and there is a lot of accusations flying around that the big polluters especially are kind of blocking progress and they're not the only watching out for the national interest and not looking at the bigger picture. ok did abuse sign your fellow car thanks for that. a new u.n. report is accusing security forces in chile of serious human rights violations
