Treason. Now spains 4th election in 4 years is underway in opinion polls indicate another fragmented result with a surge in support for the far right vox 40 the leftist the demos party is now vowing to help be incumbent socialists in hopes of forming a Left Wing CoalitionPrime Minister pedal sanchez call for the vote after failing to form a new government adding to the political divisions is a turmoil in catalonia which has seen weeks of protests by separatists Hoda Abdelhamid is standing by for us in boss alone a 1st we go to join a whole in madrid spain is capital saw joan of the 4th election in 4 years how are things shaping up as a we likely to have a stable government in spain right. Frankly on the basis of the pretty base going into the vote. Is the most you need to keep the next. 48. But you stated that he. A pool but not crucially enough to form a majority government on their own so there will be inevitably something of horse trading that takes place after this vote as you pointed out there already are demos on the left have offered their hand to try and assist in forming a Coalition Government look at the socialists and put it most tried for months to do that after a period failed which is why were in the situation again he would run on your side of the party and the right has also offered its assistance but the ground has shifted quite significantly in this election in the last 7 months to clean with the backdrop of events in catalonia and it is by no means clear that any of those parties together will have the numbers that theyll need already even though they have to be able to Work Together i mean this is the reality of spanish Politics Today gone are the days when shifted reliably from one party on the left to one party on the right its a much more polarized much more fractured Political Landscape now with multiple parties on both sides including on both extremes add to that the catalonia crisis that many spanish voters see as existential to the unity of the state youve got a very volatile and combust combustible Political Landscape that makes any sort of power sharing deal pretty difficult. I john i thank you for that lets cross over to boston around now and hard to have a hard council on independence of course one of the big issues in this election as well how are the separatist parties likely to perform. But certainly several catalan political leaders have been calling up on people to go out and cast their ballots some are saying that you need to put to express that anger you have towards how you know towards the government in madrid through the vote at the ballot boxes i think what the catalan did is hoping to achieve is get a big number of seats in the. Congress in madrid catalonia in. In total has about 48. 00 seats theyre trying to get the lions share of that and then have an influence on the National Level now that influence on the National Level is probably making things difficult for whoever is going to be in power and whoever will try to form a government that will not solve the issue itself are these these aspirations for independence the demands to have a proper legal referendum there is no hope that that will happen i think the divide between the 2 sides is growing deeper and deeper even. In the past some people said that he seemed to be a bit more understanding of the point of view throughout the campaign he started having a harder approach to it his rhetoric became harder maybe trying to garner more votes from the. Sort of those in decided in between. There is no hope that theyll be an outcome of dags issues specifically what. Leaders are hoping for is to get the big Popular Support on their side and with that they are able to sort of paralyze the political. Landscape National Level bring about this theyve had the big roll over the past 2 years and probably that will continue afterwards one thing is that what we were seeing tomorrow the day after this election is that a democratic tsunami a Pro Independence online group by to use of nobody really knows who is behind it well they have already called for 3 days of civil disobedience so theyre making their voices heard about boxing but also keeping up the pressure from the street making their voices loud on the street and expressing their anger and that anger having increased dramatically ever since those 9 of the union leader.

By 25 years after the signing of a peace treaty between jordan and israel the jordanian government has refused to renew a clause that allowed israeli tourists and farmers at least a free access to 2 large stretches of its territory that area runs along the border between the 2 countries as Bernard Smith reports its another sign the relationship is under strain over israels treatment of the palestinians. There may be a Peace Agreement between jordan and israel but its under considerable strain. So these are some of the last israeli tourists to walk across the border without passports to visit jordanian sovereign territory thats been owned and farmed by jews for almost 100 years jordan is not renewing a 25 year deal that granted Privileged Access and a lot of us will lose some of our income a kibbutz makes a living from these lands and weve got a deep emotional attachment to the area. Israel got vital Security Cooperation along its longest land border when it signed the peace treaty in 1994 our viewers to see this very becomes a very old piece Jordans King Hussein and his people were promised political and economic benefits but theyve not materialized i think its true that if thered been progress on the palestinian issue it would have helped with a way to tional jordan i think jordan is also disappointed with the economic benefits that it hoped to gain from the peace treaty there was talk of one stage that we would have one airport in the south that will serve both jordan israel and israel decided that we didnt want to proceed with that then last year as farmers cultivated crops that take years to mature the u. S. Recognized all of jerusalem as the capital of israel and jordans economy continue to struggle everything combined to intensify jordanian Public Opinion against israel and these were all issues that King Abdullah reflected on that sunday state opening of parliament. Local model or dont be so that our National Position on the palestinian cause a steadfast supporting our palestinian brother and to establish their independent state along the 4th of june 1967 lines with East Jerusalem as its capital today i also announce the expiration of the peace treaty an excuse on the outcome and back around the imposition of a full sovereignty over every inch of those lines. Perhaps the most important crop the fruits of peace has failed to take root here the jordanian government now says that the israelis will be given continued access to the farmland until the end of the season next april as long as they apply the visas and the farmers hope that by then some sort of long term arrangement can be found to allow them to continue farming. Burnitz with aljazeera on the jordan israel. In cambodia a prominent opposition figure camp has been released 2 years after he was charged with treason but he still bond for banned from politics and is also barred from leaving the country when harry force. 2 years after Opposition Leader kim was arrested jailed and then placed under house arrest a Cambodian Court has released him his daughter who is also an influential member of the band opposition Cambodian National risky party hopes this is just the 1st step. I hold that petard against him will be dropped and i hope that has Political Rights along with the political rise of my colleagues and myself will be reinstated and that would be a negotiation between the 2 parties to reinstate for example the space. And make media rights the base was there was a society and reinstate a Real Opposition Party back. Is still subject to severe restrictions and the treason case against him stands. By we still have questions about certain things mentioned in the court order and we will ask the court for clarification such as what limitations are there on his freedom what are the limitations on his Political Freedom kennie mean his supporters what degree of freedom does he have to meet with his supporters. Analysts say so cause release is a tactical move by the cambodian government. It comes a day after sam rainsy who cofounded the Opposition Party with a car arrived in the malaysian capital kuala lumpur from selfimposed exile in france he says hell return to cambodia to challenge Prime Minister hussein whos ruled for more than 3 decades. And on tuesday the European Union will publish a report on the decline in democracy and human rights in the country its threaten to withdraw cambodias tariff free status on goods entering the e. U. Facing a very very serious situation. Looking at the potentially damaging. Actions by the e. U.

Hussein controls the National Assembly as well as the police the army the courts and the media hes ordered the arrest of dozens of opposition activists in the last few months. This is the home of chems a car where hes been detained for more than a year one of the demands of the European Union is that not only should he be freed from house arrest but the charges against him should be dropped that hasnt happened hes still awaiting trial so while this is being seen as a small step in the right direction the opposition knows that little has changed when hey al jazeera phnom penh.
