more for egalitarian views regarding women in their societies i want to talk a bit about libya because this is a topic that's very close to you libya's toppled leader moammar qaddafi did a lot for emancipation in libya whatever you like him or not but he rolled women and universities and the army gave them rights to divorce and so on so is the new libyan state going to keep this legacy or anything related to him is subject to destruction well first i would like to. make a point. whatever women have been women have cheve it has nothing to do with get their few percy we need to this tangle this presumption that these rights have been given by giveth and we've seen this argument and discourse going on in many of the arab spring so-called arab spring countries that they've seen these women's rights that the were giving in certain time during these regimes as the first lady's policies of the case in egypt or as in the case of libya they see it as a byproduct of the so we need to disband all this first these are. rights that women have game over time and they have to they have to to maintain

yeah i definitely hear you and if this is a sound question and i think libya has set. a bad example and the precedent for the light intervention that that's said does not mean that there the international community should not intervene because we've seen what happened in bosnia and kosovo or in rwanda and that's his call in the international hundred sponsibility that we have is how little you know yet whose responsibility is it because the british and the french and americans didn't plan on what to do after gadhafi was gone but then again like we've talked about neither did the libyans who are protesting against him should every last one has of the west or should should libyans do something about it themselves no no i actually this is why i started with the internal factor and failure and then i mentioned the external factor but the external factor we cannot. minimize it because it has intervened and it has created the failed states so there should have been collaborative effort. with libyans to deal with. this on them and demobilization and that we have all of the reb

libya is the platform. they go through libya and risk their lives through the mediterranean. there is a boom in human traffickers there. obviously italy didn't take it very well. they consider libya as being the former colony, it is part of their remit. 0n the other hand, i've been crossing the french— italian border for ten years, and you see the evolution. the french police now, all the high—speed trains going through the alps have to wait longer and longer. you know you're going to be delayed by at least 20—30 minutes, and it's getting longer because you have the french police catching migrants on the trains or outside. you've got these mini—calaises now, also on the outskirts of paris. what we are talking about is a european crisis. of course, there is the political asylum seekers, and there's the economic migrants. but it creates this huge migration problem. can i suggest that we should use the word "crisis" for those people who have to leave their homes? uganda, which is my old home country from which

libya had a legal defense. they did not fail to show up. delay,hole strategy was raise jurisdictional objections, never deal with the merits. every time they would lose characterized as a jurisdictional decision they would make an immediate appeal to the d.c. courts. only sovereigns can do that, by the way. so, the yo-yo in, up and down, dragging out a million legal issues, when we finally got to the point of trying to prove they were liable, the biggest piece of evidence we had, of course, were the files from the criminal investigation and prosecution, and in france, this files are not public, unlike here. can the street here, you just walk in, a journalist can walk in and the washington post has a reporter that covers the federal courthouse and you cover the files. we had a lucky break. the victim organizations under right tow have a legal just paid in the criminal prosecution with the government prosecutors. as a matter of napoleonic law, and they have the full files and as i explained in the book, which i think is more than a wink and a

libya. yes of course we realize but we are seeing something different we are seeing that a code of conduct should be adopted by n.g.o.s. called a couple conduct meaning that they should operate they should not station their vessels within the libyan territory or water at the short distance from the shores of libya because if they stash station there inevitably they exist sizable factor because people simply go because they know these are some n.g.o.s that of course i can image but we are not seeing that they shouldn't if there is an american see in some live lives my. can be saved of course you can get into the territorial waters but then you should be in the do this in cooperation with the libyan coast guard otherwise we never be able to reassert some national leave you know story on the territory and or on the waters. and then we want to know the who is financing these n.g.o.s and we want to have information about the cruise and this because as you know maybe there were allegations of coll

we need to cut down the number of people who are reaching libya. also not only controlling libya's northern border and the sea but also better controlling its sovereign borders to stand the number of migrants entering libya is moved out of the way you can currently be. italy will pledge ten million euros to help libya southern neighbors control their borders and another eighteen million euros to help voluntary repatriations of migrants who do reach libya. over the past year the mediterranean country has accepted eighty five percent of the one hundred thousand migrants who arrived in europe. eight organizations like amnesty international have raised concern about unconditionally funding libya. citing the country's questionable human rights record and its coastguards previous violent behavior. okay willow without that reports. a french public prosecutor has called for a power school to sentence the son of. equatorial guinea's president to three years in jail. tehran all beyond is charged with using money. to buy parisi in luxury properties. an exotic

nicola: various armed groups are fighting for power in libya -- including at sea. there are militias that present themselves as coast guard officers. you can never be sure. anarchy reigns there. reporter: fabio is afraid that armed libyan boats are becoming an ever-greater danger for rescuers, as well as refugees. fabio: sometimes they assist rescue efforts, but sometimes they hinder them. sometimes they fire kalashnikovs. it's hard for ngo's to estimate the level of danger. reporter: fabio zgraggen will soon take off again. he believes more europeans should volunteer for rescue missions -- as long as libya remains so unsafe for refugees and migrants. michelle: there's an area in britain which has managed to produce all of its own energy. using water, wind, and the sun, the people there no longer need access to the national grid. the tiny island of eigg, off the coast of scotland, has turned out to be the world leader in renewable energy. but because many of their programs are funded by the eu, the impending brexit threatens the crack of their success. reporter: a

a lot of people call libya hell when they come across. it is absolutely unacceptable for people to send people back to libya. claire seaward of oxfam, thank you. let's find out how the weather is looking. hello. just about to show you some ona hello. just about to show you some on a plate, what a superb picture from yet another of our weather watchers in derbyshire. so the week ahead, can we keep that sort of thing going? no, of course we can't. there will be rain for some on tuesday. it will turn warm and humid as well. write widely across the greater part of england and wales, it really was a case of summer today. i will show you the western side of scotland because it looked a lot more like that. the 2nd ofjuly, it did not look like it, did it? that'll came from a weather front which will ease its way out of scotla nd which will ease its way out of scotland and northern ireland bringing rain from the north—west of england and wales as well. temperatures dipping away a touch. a close night across southern parts. this is how we shape up

shery: we are hearing nigeria and libya not reduce output.ation, so what does this mean for opec? lot of pressure on the group. it is normal that libya and nigeria want to keep pumping. conflict has kept their production low. they want to get to normal levels before they consider a cut. increasing inand the second half. supply is a constant issue here. countries like ecuador, it is appropriate because low prices is a big problem because they need revenue. obviously you want to see opec cut more and possibly deeper. shery: deeper cuts would not equal more compliance comes so that is a key problem. you mentioned the second half, optimistic for the outlook, seeing a faster rebalancing, so what can we expect to the year? >> it seems to be a case of who you speak to. the very bullish see the rebalancing accelerating, where as the iea said the rebalancing all,ss certain, so over the expectation is demand will increase in the second half, which will aid that cut. is a constant issue, and what we keep talking about is supply, not only opec supply, bu

will libya and nigeria be asked to come to the table with fresh ideas?ut of the deal because they said, we have fiscal responsibilities and we can no longer purchase date in this wider agreement because of where oil prices are at. that is a shock. and don't produce a lot of oil, everybody agrees on that. , and we haveee spoken to keep people close to the process, is that this does not help the unity of opec and the strength of the broader position that opec and non-opec is trying to protect. is libya, nigeria, in ecuador. are you hearing anything yet from the saudi minister? yousef: not quite yet. we have heard whispers in the market, one report suggesting saudi arabia may cut unilaterally to offset other gains in the market. you are absolutely right in point out saudi arabia will be crucial, a critical factor to the meeting. it comes down to saudi arabia and russia. we understand the russians are not a big fan of any amendments to the agreement. we want to stick with what they've got in terms of the deal. no further members at this stage , and in the se

they have supported islamist militias in libya. qatar have supported groups in libya and somalia.hael: they allowed one of bin laden's sons to live in doha. yousef: about a year and half ago, a senior official called a senior uae official. we will leave the names out, but the purpose was, we need your advice. how can we convince the qataris to stop supporting them? it tells me the u.s. government is aware and unable to prevent it. it is the world's worst kept secret. qatar supports groups throughout the region. charlie: who else supports al-nusra in syria? yousef: we do not know. charlie: you don't know? with all the intelligence you have? yousef: i know i have an issue with qatar, because they have supported groups throughout the origin. it is hard to know once they go into syria. but we have seen qatari funds going into syria and libya. charlie: al-nusra has been considered different than al qaeda, and my right? michael: it is the al qaeda affiliate in syria. charlie: it has gone through name changes. michael: yes. think of them as the al qaeda group and syria. there is a third

it's not really manage libya and nigeria. in particular, which is it is easy to reach the top, but hard to stay on top. they have no investment in recent years, as you know. they need investment to maintain the high production. over the long-term, basically, without investment, their production is going to decline. tracy: quickly, can you tell us what you're looking at four in terms of science the market is rebalancing? anas: a couple of science. the first is we need to see those rows and double-digit, i'm talking about like 11, 12, 15 billion barrels in u.s. inventories. and of course, the oil-producing comsumption over the summer. yousef: always a pleasure having you on the program. an independent energy analysts and economists. let's show you a feature on the bloomberg. it is really cool. we would like to bring your attention to the interactive tv function. you can find it on tv . dive into the bloomberg with me. you can watch us live, we rolled back to earlier, we were having an intense debate on the prospects of the

east argy bargy this contest has the latest from los angeles that will this finally bring peace to libya . last week natasha general khalifa haftar made this announcement on television take a listen as a political hero the military forces announce to you the news of liberation of the town of bint ghazi from terrorism a total liberation. but just days later his forces announce that in fact the fighting is now continuing now this is not the first time that general have to have prematurely declared victory but it does look like the last of the militants are being driven out and i want to mention that it's unclear exactly who these militants are because there are very few reporters on the ground so all of this information is coming through open sources meanwhile violent clashes are continuing in cities outside of benghazi just this week several people were killed during fights between forces that are aligned with the u.n. backed government of national accord and one of its many rival groups it's unclear whether that fighting will further strengthen support for have tar which he mainly enjoys

most begin in libya and try to reach italy.end up being rescued and the italian government wants other countries to open their ports to those. france already says no — arguing it will encourage more to make attempt the journey. the first clip i want to play is the migration commissioner. we are ready to increase our support to italy, encoding substantial financial support if needed. all the states now need to deliver and show solidarity to italy. that is the eu. the un refugee agency, unhcr, says, "libya is now the top departure country for refugees and migrants fleeing to europe. it's also the deadliest route." the un held a press conference in geneva. in order to protect the search and rescue at sea regime in the international waters, states are private operators rescue people should not face problems. we need a mechanism in place. we need some compromise and some international corporation on that. it is unrealistic to think that issue lay —— italy should do this alone. it is not sustainable. we need other countriesjoining it

intervention supported by uprising is a tradesman you know it shows that what we did in libya what we did in iraq with saddam hussein we overthrow these obviously brutal dictatorial leaders to some degree but they but but that kind of is a much worse off without them it was interesting to me that putin said at a conference that i was at with him that he does not support assad in syria he supports a stable government and assad does that at this point and i found it very interesting because you know if we overthrow assad what do we get what happened in libya it was it was it was a catastrophe and also in iraq we see this over and over and over again a lot of these things i think you're done and not just because of oil but to. as war makes a lot of money for a few people the war machine the industrial business it makes a tremendous amount of money here in the united states and throughout europe and russia and many other places it's big business to have a war or the threat of war and i think that's one of the reasons that these things happen there's also resources that we're going to have

big issue with opec, you have hundreds kpimted initially, libya and nigeria.ction surged back now opec members are trying to figure out how to bring producers into the agreement if you live in nigeria, suffering through chaotic security problems, you don't want to cut production you want every last barrel libya is climbing by 700,000 in a year they have to find a way to bring this country into the deal. >> do you think they should be and do you think they will say they can figure out some conditions to bring those two countries in should they? >> here's the question if libya won't do it, if nigeria won't do it, saudi oil minister said the rest of the cartel will have to take that cut. the question is will saudi be willing to absorb more through the back half of the year. they have key policy priorities for 2018 if libya and nigeria won't comply, saudis will have to step up and do more gl bring it back to our shores. for the longest time had a streak of oil rig accounts going higher seems to have faded the past few weeks. how important is the u.s. side to this

>> no, i don't think it's necessarily related to libya and nigeria. the point about the opec deal is that the deal is -- the success of the deal needs to be measured over a period of time. and what we've seen in the first six months of the year is that the compliance rate with the opec deal is actually very good-bye historical standards. well over 90%. okay, we've seen a lower rate of compliance in june, that is certainly true so we'll have to wait and see how the other countries react because there are some countries within the opec family whose compliance rate is significantly below what we expected and of course there are other countries such as saudi arabia, biggest producer of all, which is most certainly meeting its commitments under the deal >> according to on your view, looking at the crude inventories last week, and they dropped the most in on ten months, but so far about the five year average at the same time we're seeing oil output still increasing, and i think the market is just as confused about this one day oil prices are up, next day th

that includes closer european coordination and helping to stabilize libya.s decision was made at a meeting of eu justice and interior ministers in the estonian capital. there was one major stickingg point, it called for other countries to open their ports to accept migrants rescued at sea was rejected. more than 90% of migrants this year arrived in italy. our very own our breath -- bar bara, good evening to you. it a leg put forward a proposal to the interior ministers -- italy put forward a proposal to the interior ministers. what does the document call for exactly? reporter: that is something that everybody agrees on because it -- italy gets a free hand. what they want to do is prevent the ngo's, the seafaring vessels, so we are rescuing the migrants from the mediterranean, to get too close to the libyan coast. that is, to get within the 24 mile zone, instead of pickup people directly in front of the coast of libya. what happens is the traffic wait for signals from the rescuer boats, and then they send off their little inflatable's with the migrants and th
