Response to the quote of our celebrating. Political breakthrough in afghanistans president and his rival result their cellmate over disputed election. After more than a year and a half of failed elections diplomatic dealmaking and political paralysis a new government has been sworn in in israel an agreement has been forged between longtime Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his political rival benny katz it will take the countrys leadership for a year and a half or a force that has more from western. Culture even after 3 inconclusive elections and being charged in 3 Corruption Cases Benjamin Netanyahu has shown once again that hes going nowhere we dont have a clue to the dark hours of great responsibility begins and i decided to form a unity government and avoid a. How high how afterwards the division and distrust remain evident in this unity deal now his former rival benny gantz have written into it all kinds of guards against betrayal sworn in simle taney asli as Prime Minister and alternate netanyahu to go 1st then after 18 months an unprecedented 36. 00 ministries shared equally. We decided to take National Responsibility especially at this time israel needs a National Government that represents broad sections of the country after more than 10 years the era of government by one half of the nation is over we are here to represent those who felt they had no voice in leading this country. But gans also predicted bitter arguments to come one big difference their position on an exceeding 30 percent of the occupied west bank under the terms of the trump peace plan dances calling for a delay in consultation netanyahu is doubling down. On it it is time to apply israeli law and rise a glorious chapter in the history of zionism this state doesnt delay peace it brings it closer because peace must be based on the truth and the truth is that there are hundreds of thousands of settlers in judo and sumeria under the Coalition Deal netanyahu can bring an extension for a vote anytime after july the 1st veto power of the terms of the deal say that annexation has to be carried out in coordination with the us and must not threaten any Regional Peace treaties and now the u. S. Seems to be signaling that it wants to see a delay and jordans king says annexation would cause massive conflict with Israel Netanyahu and dan say the new government answers the call of the israeli people at a time of pandemic and economic crisis dances for more opposition ally says it serves the interests of politicians not voters accord look at how this government was established 0 trust between the partners everything through lawyers and Court Debates overriding the basic laws people who dont believe a word the other says. It is at least for now a functioning government the 1st israel has had a nearly 18 months but its structure is unprecedented and faces severe tests of the impact of the coronavirus and accession and having a Prime Minister whose corruption trial is due to start next sunday are a force it west to saddam. Ali abunimah is the cofounder of electronic intifada an independent online news publication focusing on palestine he doesnt expect any change in policy toward palestinians from the new government. Its not as if any Israeli Government would have presented the palestinians with somehow a peaceful way out of. Israeli occupation apartheid every Israeli Government has been implacably hostile to palestinian rights including this one which is headed by the 2 authors of among many other things that 2014 assault on gaza during which israel killed one in every 1000 residents of the occupied gaza strip netanyahu was of course Prime Minister then and gantz was the army chief so these are 2 people who despite what have a personal animosity they have iron ideological lockstep in terms of. Completing the colonize ation of the west bank and if they have any disagreements its a very in mind that tactical disagreements about how not to upset the socalled International Community too much but. They really dont have anything to worry about because weve seen that the United States the European Union many arab regimes including especially the gulf regimes a very much on board with this is ready government so as real doesnt think it has too much to worry about. In brazil protesters are heading back out defying lockdown orders to demand an easing of coronavirus restrictions officials there have recorded more than 15000 deaths more than the rest of the region combined 230000 people are known to be infected limits on testing a likely hiding the truth about slots of figure president diable sonando is still downplaying the risks and pushing hard to reopen the economy while in chile one of the americas of a major pandemic hotspots surging infection numbers a few unfair and racism particularly against haitians the largest Migrant Community that in america ever had lucy and human reports from santiago.

Coronavirus now they tell us that they feel even more discriminated and vulnerable than ever.

John hendren joins us now live from chicago so john what else did the former president have to say about the current president and his handling of the pandemic and has donald trump responded at all.

Its been fast tracked 12 months to be finished next about so some 2021 middle of the year now its a big part of think of the governments ambitions approach the u. K. Right at the forefront of the global drive to create research and develop a vaccine for corona virus the main problem at the moment is that as we can know there isnt a vaccine so. Its something that. These places like the specs and sent around and other places around the world are going to be working hard but Boris Johnson is has pledged to get to get this sort of thing done but hes also acknowledged in an article he writes in the mail on sunday. Newspaper today that such a thing may not actually happen we may never actually get to a vaccine so a bit of tempering of expectations or.

In the past people mostly deposited the savings in banks banks invested it now its become very simple theres a website the comprehensive Financial Information people register online and receive a trading code and they can buy she is 3 different brokers.

We have now like anywhere in the world the covert 19 of honest on for example a know it has the potential to be unfortunately the epicenter in the region if its not contained for instance secondly President Trump and the trumpet ministration is an entirely different game of the us Foreign Policy compared to the Obama Administration and president jiang zemin very clear he does not want to be the policeman of the honest man as he puts it so i think the political elite of what is on have come to really realize ation that they have to Work Together in order to move forward to even have that means that theyre going to Work Together in circumstances they dont like to work with each other but it has to be done for their own survival but also for making sure that some kind of move forward happens and also the taleban process of of reconciliation with them which at the moment is stuck after the agreement was signed in doha and then the febrile between the u.
