Now the remains of Francisco Franco the dictator who rules pain for 36 years of being examined from the state mausoleum theyll be reburied alongside his wife in a cemetery north of the capital madrid franco led spain from the end of the civil war in 1939 until his death in 1975 lets go to our correspondent sagna guy you go shes joining us live from the spanish capital 44 years since franco died so why now sonia. Well quite simply its because the current Prime Minister better son shit head of the acting socialist government made it a prominent part of his Election Campaign and also. An actual point of action he said that he would do this once he said he would do this then there came legal challenges from francos own family which then went all the way up to the Supremes Court last month the Supremes Court ruled unanimously that the exhumation could take place and therefore set about the process of doing that while the family of franco still continues to insist that it would try and challenge will find a challenge somewhere is possible to do it it is going ahead this and already the preparations have begun at the 2 it is accompanied by the family the Justice Minister to have a see this as well as a forensic scientist to check the remains in case there has been any degradation of the zinc casket which houses the remains of franco so while that has caused quite a lot of political debate with some of the more conservative parties far right parties saying that this is just bringing old wounds right back up to the surface the spanish Prime Minister has insisted that this is a necessary jussi that it cannot be any construction or any memorial to a dictator that really cost a shadow over spains recent history and that this was in fact very much a balik closing of the circle of spains transition to democracy and this that division in how people feel about what should happen to franco is remains that seen among the people there to sanya how do they feel about it. It is a debate which has raged across the country just also really separated by generations as well for example the greater majority of the younger generations feel that this exhumation is indeed a very necessary course of action for there to be a kind of moving on as it were from the countrys very painful past underneath the dictatorship however the older you go the older generations feel that rather differently that this is not perhaps such a necessary issue and people who actually lived through the dictatorship as well more were divided on that subject as well and it has of course brought politics political aspect into it of course there are elections occurring next month either side of the political divide on this subject is using this for their own electioneering purposes so they say one accusing the other side of the other but theres no doubt that this is going to have many people here a kind of transformation transformative effect of being able to lay some of the past and also what to do with the area in particular the value of the fall and where the muslim is housed what to do with it next it is one of europes largest mass graves and the government is that it needs to be some kind of all the monument that reconciles the painful past there instead sagna thank you for that song you guys are live and mentor and. Not israel before military chief benny gantz has been asked to form a Coalition Government after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu failed to do so and of guns cant do it either well israel may end up going through a 3rd and the action in the space of a year high force that has more from west jerusalem. For the 1st time in more than 10 years israelis watched a president give someone other than Benjamin Netanyahu the chance to form their government riven rivlin urged benny gantz and israels entire Political Class to get it done and avoid sending the country to the polls for the 3rd time in less than a year. The law gives you 28 days to form a government starting from tomorrow this is a short time and these fateful days. Gantz a former army chief has tried to present himself as a pragmatic centrist throughout his short political career now but its most significant moment so far there was no change of course if dr cuellar keep my promise to form a liberal unity government and thats what i intend to do in this government i will serve all Israeli Citizens and will act in their interests i will work to form the functioning government that israel is in desperate need of a government that will strengthen israel a unity government means one composed of dances blue and white party and the likud of Benjamin Netanyahu and you who blamed gantz for frustrating his efforts to do the same thing ever since he was given the mandate last month now the roles are reversed but the same obstructions bar the way blue white says it wont sit in unity government led by a man and you know hes facing indictment in 3 separate Corruption Cases netanyahu is refusing to step down or to go 2nd in a potential rotational Prime Minister deal hes seen as having a better chance of fighting off those charges from the Prime Ministers office and theres no reason yet for the stalemate to break. Another option for gantz a minority government with external support from members of the mainly palestinian israeli joint list that would be fraught with Political Risk even if there was the will to give it a try so far gantz isnt willing to do so. The benny gantz has another path failure and the upside down of israeli politics it could just lead to success the longer he spends not forming a government the closer netanyahu gets to a possible triple corruption indictment testing the loyalty of his party. To the dancers mandate expires a final 21. 00 day scramble would ensue all kinds of deals could then be on the table if no deal gets done that it would be election number 3 early next year ari force it out west jerusalem.

A one time glamorous picture house for the rich and famous of hollywood now our shelters the poor and forgotten of downtown south. Carving out a life in the ruins of the abandoned buildings residents reinvent the movies themselves escaping their reality and reliving the former glory of cinema. A witness documentary on aljazeera. We are taking you to lebanon now where president michel aoun as addressing the nation after a days of protests lets listen in. The scenes real witnessing is a living proof that the live lebanese people. Kicking and alive it also is a living proof that our freedoms is in tact however these scenes should have been avoided. An estate you should have been in the streets crying out of joy not out of pay we are an original creative successful people yet we were smashed in tatters out of sectarianism. This plunged that country and pushed it on to the brink and from the thursday the i came to office as a president i took. To preserve lebanon and i committed myself to fiercely and fear osha slee combat corruption. However the financial and economic burden remained heavy as it was however i had high. Patience that we can read our country of the sectarianism that has us have a shared these and it is the root of all problems hoping that we would reach a civil state where all the citizens are equal before the law and each Competent Person would reach the position he deserved i had also hoped for. Decentralized administration which would provide basic services in a smooth fast way and also provide checks and balances however we are democratic states and the. President of this state following the agreement is in need from for assistance from all the components of the state in order to fulfill the promises he had made before the lebanese at the time he took office. Im not claiming this. My responsibilities at the end of the day. And incompetent president i have left no stone unturned hoping to achieve reforms in lebanon however obstacles are high personal gains are prevalent. And many parties turned a blind eye to the peoples and their voices believing that the people are dormant and. Those politicians had believed they can do whatever they wish and the people would remain silent despite all these obstacles we have achieved certain milestones not sufficient however today i would speak about combating corruption and i am certain that many would be worried unfortunately to say some of fissures and instead the fight is shifted from reforms to combating corruption and personal gains. It is a must for those corrupt officials to recover and refund all that mounts embezzled. It was me who introduced the draft lo for the recovery of the embezzled funds. Today as we speak the state audit is working on auditing billions all those responsible for embezzling public fund will be held liable. The culpable person. Corruption has no religion or sect lets put all the cards on the table lets expose the corrupt and leave the matter in the hands of the judiciary. The courts and the law will be responsible for penalize think that corrupt specially that we have all the confidence in the judges and the statement made 2 days ago from the Supreme Council of judiciary is at this to more nearly to this. It is my duty to endorse the loews corrupting combating corruption however certain powers are vested in the parliament and here i seek assistance from those members of the parliament having appointed these judges. I have all confidence on judges and you are given free reign without any interference or interruption my fellow country men i am certain that you have lost confidence in the ruling elite and the Political Parties and this demanded me to dress the government during the break 1st held. In the president ial palace. It commended only one thing restored confidence with the lebanese it had been clear from your position against any eminent attacks that it is going to be a permanent imposition and it will be wasted between corruption and m. P. And it is out of my office the reform plans that has been recently endorsed will be the 1st stop towards the salvation of lebanon steering the country away from the may. Of decision. All the credit goes to you simply for there isnt that this reform plan has been forced in a swift fashion this plan should be concurrent with a number of legislation simply because combating corruption requires certain pieces of legislation and strict implementation of law rather than slogans and campaigns you must also be aware that there are a number of proposal and draft bills lying before the parliament including the formation of a dedicated court against any of his. Perpetrated again its a public property it was presented last year another draft bill is lying before the parliament for the recovery of the embezzlement with a 3rd one for lifting any restriction of privacy of the state officials ministers and members of the Parliament Former and present another one is still left m. P. And it is. Left immunity against the government officials all these draft bills must be endorsed at the earliest you have to seek approval from your respective representatives once approved each and every state official will be held accountable for his acts and no one will be. An m. P. And it is. Reform is a political process therefore it is this a city to reconsider the current realities of the government so that the executive power would resume its duties. This should be in harmony with the constitutional principles my fellow country men your outcry is still going and it will not go down the drain similarly like the ones before where were distorted dignity freedom and independence freedom of expression is right respected and cherished and all the people however the freedom of movement is similarly the right of each and every citizen thats why i call on you to observe to be act as monitors. Until all these reforms are implemented with our career playing the movement and from my office i will act as a guide and told and i will expose and reveal whatever is taking place and ill do all what i can to have these reforms implemented i have listened to calls calling for toppling the regime listen my fellow countrymen there is seem cannot be toppled from the street i know that the regime has been crippled for years yet it seem must be change constitutional to. Now we have an economic model that will bring about jobs. And. Those in the street. Willing to listen to representatives from you we will listen to all your demands. And in return you would listen to our concerns about the economic mayim what we should do together so that your goals are achieved and the government is preserved lets initiate a constructive dialogue where practical measures are taken through practical options are adopted in order to reach the best result dialogue is the best and safest way for salvation. Waiting for you. So we have been listening there to the lebanese president michel aoun whos addressing the nation after 8 days of unprecedented protests in the country calling essentially for an entire change in the political system our correspondent dana hall there has been listening in and shes joining us live from the lebanese capital it was a very strong address saying and for a lot of it i mean he almost sounded like a protest leader in his criticism of government officials. Well yes but this is what government officials have been doing over the past week criticize each other blaming each other for the dire Economic Situation in the country on monday Prime Minister sato how do you see when he presented before he presented his economic reform plan he said i havent been able to work because of my partners in government theyre obstructing my work we heard the president say that i wanted to create a civil state but i havent been able to do that because i face opposition from my partners in government but the message here is a message here is one of dialogue we want to open dialogue with you addressing the protesters in the street saying that im here im ready to listen to your demands im ready to guarantee that your demands are met what the president down is promising is to fight corruption this is a concession hes giving 5 days ago when the Prime Minister how do you offer the 1st concession to protesters it was a new economic plan now hes talking about opening files over a river trading what he says are stolen money funds that have been embezzled by state officials now whether this will be enough for the protesters on the street we have to wait to see the speech is just happening now but what i understand from talking to people over the past week they dont trust the people in power what they want is a new government a technocrat government ministers who are not affiliated with the different Political Parties ministers who will work for the interests of lebanon and they also want to early elections but president you know address that he said if you want change it has to go through constitutional means change cannot come from the street and what he means is the next election you know the ballot box this is how youre going to change the balance of power in the country so clearly he didnt meet the demands of the protesters but he is reaching out to them telling them i am ready for dialogue. Zain i thank you for that for now that they know all the live in beirut were joined now by jamal gorton journalist and former editor of english shes also live in the lebanese capital mr gross and what did you make of what the president had to say saying you know each and every state official will be held accountable for their acts hes going to act as a guarantor but crucially saying that the regime cannot be toppled from the street it has to be changed through constitutional tools. He seems to be doubling down on what it is said earlier this week there is adopting that 3 reform paper and what weve seen yesterday is that they might be seeking some scapegoats we saw that they opened corruption files for former Prime Minister najib me out here but if you look at the the numbers in these 4 were talking about the few 133000000. 00 in in illicit loans favorable rates that were misused were talking about very minor numbers compared to the size of corruption that weve seen by the lebanese so a very it seems that theyre just going to start looking for smaller scapegoats because if we really want to get a major. Address the major corruption it starts at the Prime Ministers office which this is i dont think theyre starting there and so do you think that there was anything in michele ounds address that protesters can take away from. Well. Whats happening as it goes along the line of the tactics that have been used by the government to diffuse the protests. Theyre trying to buy time theyre trying to distract with Different Things theyre trying to manage the groups and are trying to negotiate with some of them to treat friction between the different groups on the street from what i got from this speech by president on is that they world tried to break up the protest by any means possible and they do not seem to be open to change they will need the army but they
