Weeks of mass rallies hong kongs chief executive appears to have bowed to pressure from protesters announcing a controversial extradition bill is now dead admitted her governments work on the proposed law had been a total failure and would have allowed criminal suspects to be extradited to Mainland China anger over that bill led to massive demonstrations but there are student lingering dollars a bottle of the governments sincerity all worries whether the government will restart the process in the Legislative Council. So i retreat. There is no such plan the bill is spent. But prodemocracy activists arent convinced its the end of the bill theyve rejected lams comments and planned more rallies. Please tell the fairy listeners. That its citizens feel. It really feels to say listen listen feel legislative power is utterly legal that we live in such a feeling that we cannot find the love. Of the elderly. And the legal proceeding to legislate it sounds. Rather broad joins us now from hong kong so rob this actually seems like its not really over. Absolutely reshow yeah this is probably seen as a major concession by the government as a way of trying to diffuse some of this precedented under arrest here but as you heard there it has been rejected pretty much out of hand by the organizers of these large demonstrations they had a number of demands which simply havent been addressed or they called for a general amnesty for a number of people arrested during these protests the government didnt give into that. Also that the government look at withdrawing completely this bill they wanted to hear the words withdraw but the government they believe is just simply playing with words carry said when they introduced the suspension of this bill last month that this effectively will kill this bill she has now said that the bill is dead shes basically changed tense from a future tense to present tense that doesnt go nearly far enough for these demonstrators have also asked as well for a full independent investigation into what they believe has been the excessive use of force by the police in clearing away these largely Peaceful Demonstrations again no concession on that score the fear for the demonstrators here is that while kerry possibly with beijings backing 3 has committed not to introduce this legislation again because they have been i think found it completely surprising and daunting the level of resistance here in hong kong theyve committed not to introduce to get for the next few years of her tenure theres nothing to stop a future government a future chief executive largely appointed by beijing from trying to reintroduce this when they feel that some of this resistance has waned all part of what the demonstrators here feel is the good gradual erosion of some of the special freedoms of hong kong within china a show that private the latest in hong kong rob thank you. It has been a chaotic few months and hong kong it began in february when the Security Bureau submitted papers proposing amendments to extradition laws and a for another amendment was at it a call for criminal suspects to be sent to Mainland China for trial or testers were on the streets within days on 30th of may facing mounting pressure ams government limited the scope of offenses that could lead to extradition on june 16th lamb signaled the end of the controversial bill that saying she was suspending it but refused to actually scrap it the anger boiled over on july 1st though and a group of protesters broke into the Legislative Council building i dont take it as a political analyst he joins us now from beijing einar do you think china anticipated this type of pushback or should they have anticipated this type of pushback michelle i dont know that they have been to spaded but because they were i dont think they were the prime movers in this this was an opportunistic move by kerry lam she thought that the death of this young lady who was pregnant by her boyfriend or the alleged murder of her in taiwan that would spur irrational call for a extradition treaty. Asli it was used by other people other forces to say that this is an attack on democracy within hong kong and from there it spread but i mean largely a piece of political theater being used i think by the prodemocracy forces trying to force a showdown with beijing ok a bit of theatre youre saying that theyre not sincere in what their requests are and how they perceive this. Well its not clear i mean we all saw the pictures of these people bashing in you know the into the Legislative Council. Engaging in fairly disrobe wrists distributer hold our x. Given that theyre claiming that they want to rule of law i think beijing will be looking at this very ask instead a do not want a big controversy at this point but i dont think that this is finished so what do you think happens next with kerry land michelle how weakened is she she is very weak and i think the government in beijing will you know put up a show to back her they do not want a situation where mobs of people can come to the street and remove Public Officials in hong kong this would be a little bit much so my guess is they continue to back her but there will be eventually a change there maybe she resigns whatever the situation is i think her credibility with both sides has been seriously impacted surely this is not over under tang and thank you so much joining us from beijing we appreciate it france is sending its top diplomatic advisor to iran later on tuesday european powers are scrambling to try and save the 2015 nuclear deal but time is running out with tehran announcing it has passed a limit on uranium enrichment that was a great and the nuclear pack our diplomatic editor james phase has more from washington d. C. Just hours after iran announced it was increasing the level of its uranium enrichment beyond that stipulated in the 2050 nuclear deal the us Vice President gave washingtons response iran should not confuse american restraint with a lack of american resolve. We hold for the 1st with the United States of america and our military are prepared to protect our interests and protect our personnel and our citizens in the region the iranians are unlikely to be cowed by that in fact the main audience for their announcement that they will now enrich uranium up to the level of 5 percent was probably european nations the e. U. Is still supportive of the nuclear deal and has been devising something called in stakes a work around mechanism that would allow iran to trade and to sell its oil to e. U. And other nations without them incurring u. S. Sanctions its trying to kick the europeans and their posterity or if i can put it that way europe has been very slow to find a way to continue to trade with iran that would not violate u. S. Sanctions that would somehow get around u. S. Sanctions the tense standoff between the u. S. And iran shows no sign of easing the situation is likely to be high on the agenda one of the important regional player comes to the white house. The emyr of character time in been hammered out for me at the pentagon he leads a nation that hosts an airbase where thousands of u. S. Troops are stationed but at the same time his country maintains choreo relations with tehran james out 0 washington.

The talks between the taliban and afghan leaders have ended here and show how with the promise to reduce civilian casualties in afghanistan to 0 the 2 day event its expected to lead to more formal binding discussions between the 2 sides. Palestinians say theyre being imprisoned in their own neighborhoods by the expanding separation wall built by Israel International court of justice ruled the wall illegal 15 years ago construction began and 2002 israel said it was to provide better security wall now stretches more than 700 kilometers in the occupied west bank and is true islam affecting the lives of hundreds of thousands of palestinians Rights Groups say it has allowed israelis to confiscate Palestinian Land to build more legal settlements palestinians say the wall as a symbol of the Israeli Occupation they are demanding freedom of movement that abraham reports from the palestinian town of berna bhalo one of the Community Sets been divided by the wall. The town of the east of jerusalem has been living in the shadow for 15 years. Its economy was booming in the 1990 s. When the town in jerusalem to many cities in the occupied west bank. It looks more like a ghost town now. Since the Israeli Government ordered the building of the separation 12002 the wall has blocked the towns main road limiting access to people and products hundreds of shops have closed their doors and thousands of people have left carpenter is one of a few who decided to keep his business open but its very different to when he entered the workshop in the year 2009. No the only carpenters there are him and his partner like the towns economy their business has been cut right back. This is one of the most vivid areas and were a few meters away from an israeli Industrial Area this area was bustling with businesses and people going back and forth now we rely on a few customers the contrast between the 2 sides of the wall can be seen vividly here and also heard on the israeli side there is the loud noise of Construction Works on the palestinian side that sides. As palestinians are being pushed out on their side of the wall because of land confiscation more israelis are taking advantage such as. In the north of the occupied west bank. And Israeli Military order confiscated Palestinian Lands there for building the wall israelis built a stable on it. Palestinian fears have increased since israels Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu announced plans to annex parts of the west bank. The main goal of the israeli agenda is to grab a mans push more people out especially those living in East Jerusalem the wall helps israel build more settlements extending existing ones and consolidate them in the palestinian territory around 65 percent of the israeli separation wall is complete their arrest is under construction and when its finished is expected to take up to 10 percent of all land in the occupied west bank many palestinians say the main purpose of israels policy is to make life so im bearable they have no option but to leave me to our correspondents on both sides of the wall. First lets go to need a hip brain who is. To follow up more on your report that our viewers just saw anita. So its important to say that that that the 4th that came from the International Court of justice is none binding binding so israel has continued building the wall over the past 15 years and for palestinians they say that really their situation has gotten worse now we spoke to many people in the Palestinian Authority who believe that the report has been very important and was a legal basis for many cases that they brought in the United NationsSecurity Council for example as it was the 1st thought im for an International Tribunal to say that the 4th Geneva Convention which deals with civilians in a war zone is a political will in the occupied palestinian territory now when we talked about the stimulus in the street they say thats even binding the citizens that were taken in the United NationsSecurity Council and so on were not implemented in the palestinian case there is this sort of apathy and belief that the International Community is not really standing up for palestinians whether they have decisions or not its all right. Thank you for that report and now braun thats going to run that smith now who joins us from what our home is so bernard tell us about the significance of where you are and whats happening there. Im standing right by part of the separation walls of its offensive into double fitness with the road for the military going down the middle behind me on the end of the row but house is slated for demolition by the Israeli Supreme Court because they agree with the militarys argument that it is to close for security purposes to the wall not only that house but 16 of the properties in this area including but one behind me theyre slated for demolition now even though these properties have been given approval by the palestinian or already to be built these reilley say they must be demolished thanks. Told so very busy road now theyve got until the 18th the People Living in these properties to move out of there have moved out by the scene the israelis are going to come and demolish the divorce themselves the israelis will probably come after the 18th because the People Living there are going to do it themselves i am and theyll get a bill for the demolition as well theyve got to pay for the demolition of their own properties regular all right Bernard Smith bernard thank you donald trump says officials will no longer deal with the British Ambassador in washington over the weekend a leak of confidential letters from ken derrick showed how he described the u. S. President S Administration is dysfunctional and annette and and has ordered an inquiry into the leak down a hole reports. He holds a pivotal position in global diplomacy yet the words of the u. K. s ambassador to the United States kim derek are anything but diplomatic leaving the British Government writhing in embarrassment and expressing its deep regret in leaked memos the Trump White House is described as uniquely dysfunctional clumsy and inept u. S. Policy on iran is incoherent chaotic the ambassador concludes we dont really believe thiS Administration is going to become substantially more normal less dysfunctional less unpredictable the Prime Ministers office said she disagreed with the content of the memos but foreign secretary jeremy hunt was keen to defend the eyes and ears of the government in foreign capitals of course we recommend it clear that i dont share the ambassadors assessment of either the uS Administration or relations with the uS Administration but i do defend his right to make that frank assessment and its very important that our diplomats all over the world continue to be able to do so. The leaks come just weeks after President Donald Trump and his family were fated with all the pomp and majesty of a state visit to the u. K. How easily all of that effort the unthinkable expense of it might now be squandered. Zif there are concerns in the corridors of whitehall about the possible fallout for u. K. U. S. Relations ministers and Civil Servants here dont need a memo from washington to tell them the president from his rather better at making criticisms been receiving them to resume a has ordered an inquiry to try and. And the source of the leak with suggestions that criminal charges should apply but i think its stream the seriousness serious because it fundamentally on the minds of the cultures that are in voice can have the messages they send back will be kept private now that puts at risk the ability of the British Government to have the best possible advice which to make policy decisions Russian Foreign affairs the ambassador may retain the Prime Ministers trust for now but she would be Prime Minister for much longer to resume a successor will prioritize achieving bricks and consequently the need to maintain the best relations possible with the United States very soon therefore london will likely be looking for a new ambassador in washington jonah aljazeera opposition parties in albania have launched new antigovernment protests after boycotting last months local elections.

C. We no longer have to rely on the testimony of activists and whistleblowers to understand what the high commissioner is referring to we have the Inspector General of the department of homeland securitys own report that was released last week where we found out about cells with a Maximum Capacity of 35. 00 holding 155. 00 detainees but those with a Maximum Capacity of 8 holding 41. 00 detainees detainees wearing soiled clothing for days or weeks children or adults with no access to showers even though theyve been held for as much as a month standing room only in some cells there was also a very interesting statement there very interesting statement from customs and Border Patrol itself they felt this is part of a quote consequence Delivery System that is its meant to be like this its not some oversight its part of a deterrent policy to make sure that people think twice about crossing the border very similar to what happened under president obama in 20152016 when there was a spike in the number of women and children crossing the border he too had a policy off to terence having the conditions we so all for the women children would think twice in fact the a. C. L. U. The American Civil Liberties union sued the Obama Administration this is a they said detainees were being held under obama freezing overcrowded filthy cells extended periods of time no access to bed soap showers adequate meals water medical care and lawyers in violation of the constitution it sounds very familiar this is what the u. S. Government does when confronted with immigration crises the difference is as so often the case trump has taken them obama framework and gone much further but it is supposed to be like this another reason for this is its very good for travis 2020 Election Campaign he wants to be seen as tough on immigration and in fact the comments of the u. N. High commissioner will probably add to his narrative look even the u. N. Is against me i must be doing something right his base will no doubt cheer social chile is enduring its worst drought in 60 years that includes the capital santiago home to nearly half of the countrys population of 18000000 people.

Piece of farmer who was born and bred here is raising cattle now on what was the main source of water for the sugar cultural region. Theres no water im raising a few animals but its becoming too expensive to truck in the water its a disaster. Hes not wrong farmers all over are being forced to sell their livestock and their land. The drought which is now in its 10th year is a phenomena thats here to stay quoting to experts in a new report issued by the university of chile it blames the growing demand for increasingly scarce Water Resources on large true to exporters but above all on Climate Change this drought is just as visible above ground than on the surface and underneath at this time of year the Andes Mountains should have been covered with snow which in turn in the spring melts and fills the rivers and the lagoon but with the deficit of rain now and 80 percent these mountains now just had a little bit of salt sprinkled on the top. Chilies populated capital as well as the bad but i use a region could be left without Drinking Water by 2030 according to the report but there are ways to avoid disaster one of them is to stop losing water that.
