this update. >> peaceful protests, exactly what is happening here as the independence square in minsk, the crowds are swelling by the minute. this is because workers from a factory in the outskirts of minsk, when they were on strike marched to the city center and obviously joint and, so they ended up here -- in. they were marching towards the building, and the military police came out. people were scared what they would do. surprisingly the soldiers put down their shields, which left emotional scenes with many people crying because you have to remember many here have been living under authoritarian rule for more than two decades. where is this going to late -- lead?

nobody knows. the new president has offered to have a dialogue about this transitional government. she considers herself a winner with 60% to 70% of the vote but so far the old president has not responded. she has gone to lithuania which is now considering welcoming belarusians as refugees. bey say relief needs to collective action for political dialogue to take place. inwe have decided to step since the beginning we can't -- of the events in the neighborhood. since it is neighborhoods we can't be indifferent. always a dialogue with the neighbors very complicated. there are segments where we can find added value. there are issues where we can

disagree and now we see this crisis. because of the actions of authorities, they are already below -- beyond any borders because of violations of human rights. committedven crimes against the population, that is something we -- we are demanding simple things, to release those detained, also and to stopence violence on its own citizens and people. they were not aggressive. not smashing windows or burning cars, but not force used against .hem was extraordinary that will remain complacent in the future. definitely very difficult. no intentions whatsoever or willingness or rights to intervene. , it we are talking here

really deserves our attention. at the same time it is happening in europe, and that is why we discussed this issue also today with the prime ministers of the european union having this extraordinary meeting. it is not just lithuania but we have the international european union. before, we fear actions, collective actions. we have prepared possible targeted individual measures against those responsible for electoral reform and those in support. also we discussed opportunities to establish special funds for victims of aggression. this also would be a moral backup and also make it financial support for those who have suffered. because of the suppression and brutality. we have very complete measures, not just assessing situations

and picking the selections, but renew relations. foreign ministers have agreed to stop repairing new sanctions against those behind violence. >> the meeting of the foreign ministers happened remotely. they dialed into a central hub in brussels and shared ideas on how to pile the pressure on alexander lukashenko, to no shortage of solidarity for the belarusian people and no shortage of condemnation of lukashenko, according to a spokesperson for angela merkel, was shocked at having seen scenes of violence on the streets of minsk and other cities over the past few days. and ursula von der leyen, the commission president, said there has been a brutal violation of human rights that warranted

immediate sanctions. sanctions appears to be the direction of travel that you foreign minister -- travel the are foreign ministers prepared to take. that could take asset freezes or travel bans on senior figures in lukashenko's leadership. imposing a already rash of sanctions on the country, already imposed restrictions on certain officials. we know the arms embargo has been in place for some time. the e.u. is under pressure to see what it can do to force lukashenko into line. we have had poland, the baltic states come forth and volunteer as mediators in any forthcoming dialogue between lukashenko and the opposition. lukashenko is far from it. he remains defiant.

the role for the e.u. is to pile on the pressure and to try a corridor of communication. 33 of itsssia says nationals detained in belarus have been sent home. they were arrested in minsk. alexander lukashenko accuse them of being my -- being mercenaries to incite violence. russia dismissed this saying they are employees of a private security firm that was just going through the country. overall on the situation, we can speak to the international affairs expert area we have seen pictures of protest, people turning out onto the streets. we know about the detentions and also the government releasing some 2000 people after a had been detained. how would you describe what is

happening? would you say the police brutality is getting worse? >> we are not getting a very good look at what is going on inside prisoners in paddy wagons. we have had problems with the internet. it seems like since monday and tuesday, the most intense times, the police brutality and level of police violence has simmered down, which is a good thing for the protest side. first off, because it means fewer of them are getting hurt, and that is a good thing. it shows the situation lukashenko would like to have engineered, which is full-fledged aggression between the protesters and security services make the rank-and-file services feel under threat, so they remain on site. that is not happening. as we have started to see little

bits, there is no sense how large, how widespread this is, but we have seen as your correspondent pointed out, write it troopers dropping their ,hields, joining the protesters seeing larger groups of police detach and join. we know there have been protests. there is a lot of information we are not getting because of problems of communication in the country and lack of transparency, but we know there are protests in minsk and dozens of other cities outside of the capital. are you saying the president is concerned about not having the troops and resources to be able to contain protests everywhere, or is he concerned about the loyalty of the security forces? >> both. for the first point, we have to

remind ourselves political power and authority in some ways is based on fear. lukashenko has been able to portray himself as this authoritarian resident with a fearsome security force and intimidate people into not protesting except on specific issues and extremists. what we saw this year was protests in belarus going from the usual small hundreds to the thousands in minsk and then to other cities and protesters -- this is prior to the presidential election. the administration's ability to contain this shown to be wanting. with so many people, we saw thousands arrested, we saw people being herded into jim's -- into gyms, because they did not have enough space in the cells.

they have ordinary citizens that are going to outnumber the number of people who are soldiers or riot police or positions in the authority. miriam: can i ask about the response of the international community? the e.u. is preparing a new round of response, but this is already a country that is subject to sanctions and isolated from the international community. what can they do? >> the e.u. has limited to no leverage. , partms of economic links of the reason why -- what to find lukashenko's regime was he, for the privatization and market transition of the 1990's, other post soviet states went to. the economy is not as integrated into the global economy. recently he has been distant,

not isolated from the west -- rest of western europe. you mentioned earlier there is already a conference of array of sanctions in place. the e.u. at this point is signaling it regards this as an extremely important issue, but there are not many concrete levers they can pull. the people who can are in russia. even those are weaker than one might expect. if you were to see some copperheads of regime of economic sanctions intended to isolate belarus, so long as russia is not going to engage in those sanctions and is willing to support in breaking them, the sanctions will not be effective. this is in the hands of the people right now. anchor: thank you. the newshour live from london,

more still ahead. accusations of the trail, palestinians protest against the agreement between israel and the uae angola's former president is sentenced to five years for embezzlement and fried. and the head of the u.s. open, which one came out on top later. ♪ miriam: the u.s. department of justice said it seized iranian fuel heading to venezuela from four tankers. it is the biggest such seizure. iran and venezuela are under sink shirts. -- under sanctions. >> they are going to houston. they are not supposed to be doing that. iran is not supposed to a doing that.

we seized the tankers and we are moving them and moved to houston. miriam: let's get more on this now. has there been any further reaction about how and why this cargo was seized? no further reaction apart from that original statement making clear this was oil was seized in accordance with u.s. sanctions. the ships were actually stopped in july, but the justice department's needed to apply for a federal court order to be able to seize the oil on board these tankers, more than one billion barrels of oil. this has been transported to houston. there was a very strange article info justice department's statement saying -- info justice department's statement saying

this happened with unspecified partners. the ships were not iranian at all and he called it lies and propaganda. >> no, there is nothing planned because we have not had a request from our venezuelan friends as they are reactivating their refineries. fabricating and lies in carrying out shows. who is the bigger victim of terrorism, the u.s. or iran? >> it is believed there were two earlier shipments of oil from iran to vezuela in may and june and observers expressed surprise at that time the u.s. had not attempted to intercept these vessels. that policy has changed, with the u.s. taking this unspecified action against the takers and confiscating the oil. thank you very much. for more analysis i am joint by

mark fitzpatrick on the district -- former u.s. video state. is this an escalation of the u.s. maximum pressure policy on iran? >> i would call it a continuation. the united states has not done this too much to date, seized the oil. the united states has a policy of trying to drive iranian oil exports to zero. they have frozen iranian revenues from previous oil sales, so in effect that was confiscating it. this ratchets it up another step. miriam: what about the timing? this is after it has become clear u.s. efforts to extend the arms embargo will likely fail at the u.n. security council. >> the timing is interesting. i think the announcement was timed for when the united states

is facing this massive defeat in new york. they can boast about the iran policy, having done something in their view positive by seizing the oil at the same time they are being isolated in new york with almost every other state voting against the united states' effort to extend the arms ban. miriam: diplomatically in the u.n. security council, but the thatrn is the failure of resolution will result in the u.s. triggering a return of all u.s. sanctions on iran. >> yes. u.s.ld say that is the objective. i don't think they care that much about the specifics of this effort to extend the arms ban. 32015y can get all of the

pre-ions reinstated, -- 2015 sanctions reinstated -- that will run into problems because all of the states who opposed the u.s. effort to extend the arms ban are going to effort to snap back sanctions. there will be a real mess in the u.n. security council. >> will president trump have succeeded in killing off the jcpoa to the point where it will be impossible for any potential successor to resurrect it? >> that is what he is trying to do. will he succeed? depends on another player, how iran will respond. if the u.s. declares sanctions have been snapped back and every other party says no, the u.s. has no standing to step tax sections, then whether there is any real impact depends on what

iran does. they will be wise enough to say nobody agrees with the united states. sanctions have not snapped back. we will maintain the framework of the iran deal even though we are not agreeing total limits, in the month that circumstances will change and we get it back together under a new u.s. president. >> thank you for your thoughts. palestinians have protested against the u.s. record agreement between israel and the united arab emirates. hundreds gathered in occupied east jerusalem after friday prayers. palestinian leaders called this a betrayal. demonstrators trampled on pictures of the crown prince of the uae. more on the protests. >> it was an expression of anger and repudiation of the uae's

part in carrying out this deal with israel, which is something that goes in contravention of leasttherto adhered to at in the background policy of having a resolution in the israeli palestinian conflict before normalization with other arab states. there was this protest, there was a smaller are just as well in heparin in the south of the occupied west bank. the real pushbackk came fromom e palestininian leadershship, sayg it is a betrayayal, a stetep ine back on palestinians, and they say that the uae should never have gone along with this. from the uae perspective, what they are saying is they acted in a way which has rescued the occupied west bank from the threat of imminent annexation, 30% of it. that is the prize they have won from israel.

that is seen differently in ramallah, where the palestinian leadership is headquartered. this is israel gaining something valuable for not having sacrificed any land, not having given major concessions at all to the palestinians. miriam: iran's foreign ministers criticized western countries for this change in lebanon, with the condition of providing aid to the country. the latest high-profile figure to visit beirut, his attention turns to recovery in the aftermath of the port explosion. our report from beirut. >> the french navy ship with more than 700 soldiers talks in the shattered -- docks in the shattered port to help rebuild a city. andhere are two military challenges and there will be -- humanitarian challenges, but

catastrophic event that happened in beirut a week ago in order to leverage their position in lebanon and the region as well to advance political emphasis. they are too much influential in setting up the country, because the political factions are interrelated, or they have good relationship with the foreign powers. reporter: diplomats negotiate government will look like. the people have to come to terms with what has happened to their city and having to get through the day. volunteers doing most of the work, any official help is notably absent. whatever the next government may look like, many will tell you nothing to change and justice will never come. jazeera, decker, al beirut. miriam: protesters in lebanon are calling for an independent international investigation, but
