First to greece where the government met a midnight deadline and submitted a new plan for creditors to save the country from financial collapse and the 13page document will be studied by the eu and ministers will meet on sunday to decide if greece has done enough the greek government promising to raise taxes and clamp down on tax evasion and discourage people from retiring early and seek contributions from pen pensioners and will sell out and prioritize the ports and offering to cut more than 300 million from the military budget by next year and scuffles outside the bank in athens with people cued to take out money and later today the Greek Parliament will be authorizing the plan and could face some opposition by hard line members of his own party to reject austerity and we will go where john is and john what are the chances of this passing parliament . Well, it contains of course all the austerity measures you mentioned which are the measures we have become familiar with since the week before last when they were first presented by creditors, that document is the one that has been floating around and it has been made public and its the obsecondobsecond object of the referendum and i think it stands a new chance and if its combined with all the things the government says it will come in accompaniment with 35 bu euro package with european funds, a lot of money, more money than they are pledging in austerity measures and also apparently a rescheduling of the greek debt is on the cards and that would mean the enormous question of extending the Repayment Period would be resolved resolved. If it brings those two home it can convince the government faction and opposition parties in parliament to give this bill passage. Given that john people must be wondering what on earth is the point of the referendum. That is a very good question i think two things and one the main one was it put pressure on german chancellor ankle la merkel and i think it was perhapsed designed to be dropped as an idea if she grew frightened at the idea of a referendum and the greeks have not been able to win for themselves and in the event they used the referendum for the government and if calculated and if put pressure on the greeks to vote yes they could get rid of alexis once and for all and it didnt happen because so much of Greek Society is so immoverished that 62 almost voted no. That doesnt matter ultimately. Once the referendum card was played, once the lets say the ploy had been used he was entrenched in power and authority strengthened and knows he has to go back to talks with the same document and ignoring the no vote and hoping he will substantially alter the mix of what he brings home by adding this Development Package and the rescheduling of debt to make it significantly different to what greeks rejected and get it passed in parliament so its something he can defend. John is live in athens. The u. S. Secretary of state threatened to walk away from Nuclear Talks with iran if decisions are not made soon and john kerrys comments follow in vienna and diplomatic editor james base has the latest from there. Reporter john carry and zarif are meeting, the 14th day they have met in vienna and behind the scenes we are hearing there is tense encounters between the two men and one suggestion coming from the iran side the u. S. Put forward one proposal and withdrew it angering iran and what is suggested there is that change and the withdrawal of this particular proposal came after a Conference Call between the u. S. Delegation and washington d. C. A Conference Call with president obama and his National Security team and the suggestion perhaps that the input from washington meant this particular proposal was withdrawn. A number of sticking points still some about access of inspectors in iran but also the difficult issue of sanctions and on that issue there is a disagreement among the countries negotiating with iran whether to lift an arms embargo on iran when to lift that arms embargo, russia and china siding with the iran rather than the rest of the negotiating partners. India and pakistan will meet in new deli to discuss how the countries can combat terrorism, its a major diplomatic document and follows the first meeting between indian and pakistan leaders since talks broke down last year and modi met on the sidelines at a summit in russian on thursday and will attend a regional summit next year and kamal explain the significance of the meeting between the two prime ministers, has there been any breakthrough . Well, just to give you a little bit of a background the last time the two prime ministers met was when the ceremony was taking place in new deli and modi was sworn in as the new elected prime minister, at that time the handshake was very warm, however the body language that initially came out from todays meeting suggested that the warmth was missing, however the two sides did meet and the prime ministers did meet for almost an hour and decided they would resume talks as you are mentioning and the National Security advisors from pakistan will be going to new deli for talks, after that it was suggested that the Border Security force as well as the Pakistan Rangers should meet once a year and should be followed by the military operations as well. So some hope a small step in the right direction and the differences between the two countries is too great to be overcome in just a matter of just a meeting or a couple of months. All right, so just remind us kamal what are the major obstacles to the normalization of relations . Well first of all pakistan has disputes over water distribution, the issue of the territorial dispute of kashmir as well and pakistan also warns the confidence Building Measure or cbms as they are called to resume talks on all outstanding issues and indians are blames pakistan for what happened in mumbai but there is a feeling both countries will have to look at the future rather than looking at the past because that has proves to be the biggest obstacle in normalizing relations between the two countries at the time when the pakistanis are also saying that the indian intelligence is involved in destabilizing pakistan and serious charges in this so they will have to overcome a lot of obstacles. Thanks indeed live in islamabad. Three west african nations devastated by ebola are pushing for financial help so they can recover, the leaders of liberia and guinea and sierra leone are in new york to try to raise billions of dollars but events there could be over shadowed by a surge in new infections. And science editor explains. Reporter for the last 18 months ebola has ravaged west africa killing more than 11,000 people. Some areas have been declared free of the virus but here west of guinea and sierra leone the village is still under quarantine. Translator there is a Health Control on every road where thermal scanners effect the people and if suspected they go to medical center. Reporter burials of victims and deaths are down from the height of the epidemic but there is threat of infection from those who have died. Translator for the moment we cannot determine the exact number of bodies at the start of the bodies there were 16 dead to bury and at evening we had 27 to bury and managed to bury 24 of them. Reporter this part of guinea has been a hotspot for ebola and with every new case there is a continuing risk the virus could make a come back. Before the outbreak ebola devastated Health Systems in the Region Health workers were found to be 30 times more likely to catch the virus and more than 500 died leaving hospitals short of qualified and committed staff. Earlier this month Health Workers in liberia protested against the government and say the president promised bonus money for those who agreed to treat ebola sufferers but this has never been paid. Translator she made a promise we were going to get half the benefits or risk the benefits and that is why we are here. If i get my risk benefits im willing to work the second time and praying ebola wont come but if ebola comes im willing to work. Reporter keeping Health Workers on board is a critical part of efforts to rebuild Health Systems in the region, money is also needed, guinea liberia and sierra leone have asked owners for just over 2 billion for the job, and pledges remain 700 million short. Without that money they fear ebola could return to the region and again become a threat to global health. Al jazeera.

Yemens government in exile and Houthi Rebels agreed to a ceasefire to the end of the muslim month ramadan and broken by the agencies and will allow aid agencies to deliver supplys and we report. Reporter humanitarian aid trickled to yemen capitol sanaa to provide desperately needed assistance to hundreds of families forced to leave their home temporary ceasefire will mean more will reach the areas and most of the road access is under the control of houthi fighters. During the humanitarian pause humanitarian partners will reach people in need with essential medicine vaccination, food and water and with access they plan to stockpile supplies throughout yemen including supplies for nutritional assistance for malnourished children and shelter and medical supplies which could benefit over 2. 3 Million People in food for 1. 2 Million People for one month. It took the u. N. Envoy much convincing to reach brief humanitarian pause in the fighting and the leadership and Yemen Government in exile make it clear hostilities are far from over. Translator i would like to say this has to do less with houthis and forces and 2. 5 months ago offered a sixday truce and opportunity in geneva here they have one more chance by u. N. And international community. We all reacted positively to the truce in order to send humanitarian aid to the people. Reporter ships with food fuel and essential supplies can make it to aiden and further inland. And some by air and small boats has made it through but the bulk of it remains undelivered and despite the lifting of a saudi blockade it failed due to threats of security. One would hope this particular ceasefire lasting maybe a little bit longer if indeed its honored by all sides. Reporter the people of yemen can only hope that all parties on disagreement find ways to end the conflict. Al jazeera. The United States has asked the u. N. Security council to identify who is behind chemical weapons attacks in syria. Its part of a u. S. Proposal to set up an Investigative Unit to try to bring the perpetrators before an International Court syria agreed to destroy its chemical weapons in 2013 but reports began to emerge last year of chlorine which is not a band agent being used as a weapon in toxic gas attacks. Leaders from around the world will commemorate the victims of genocide over the weekend and its nearly 20 years since more than 8,000 muslim men and boys were killed by bosnia soldiers and as we report now some of the victims remains are only now reaching their final resting place. When was this taken . Reporter its the end of a 20year wait and she has already buried her husband and one of her sons who were killed but now she is finally getting a chance to say goodbye to her youngest son seen as a baby in this family photo and he was just 17 when he was murder eded. Translator when i was on my way out i saw his body next to the road and there were others with them and they were lined up and they were headless face down in a ditch with the feet pointing towards the road and jamal had no shoes and feet are wide and i guess his blood had drained drained. At this cemetery they are saying prays for the latest group of victims, 136 in all whose remains have been driven to the memorial site including jamal, his remains were discovered in several different places. Thats because 20 years ago bosnia sash serb forces dug up bodies and reburied them across a wide area and remains are still being found. Translator this is the first generation ever to witness criminals after killing their victims and burying them in mass graves and going over with bulldozer and scattered them and one young mans remains were discovered in five graves some 32 kilometers apart. Reporter despite such challenges internationally funded laboratories like this managed to identify most of the victims and some from other atrocities. The scope and scale of what happened here in the identification process is nothing like what we worked on elsewhere. The number of missing and the complexity surrounding the reassociation of those samples together its on a scale that nobody has ever done before. Scenes like this take dna samples and turn them into electronic profiles and its that kind of technique that has allowed around 7,000 victims to be identified so far but that still leaves hundreds still missing and from across bosnia the number of missing people is estimated at 8,000 so the painstaking scientific work could continue for sometime. And he will be there this weekend to see leaders from around the world commemorating the victims but that cannot take away the pain of losing so many loved ones, al jazeera, and the u. S. Government says the Social Security numbers of 21 Million People have been stolen millions more than previously estimated and the information was stolen when hackers briefed Government Systems in 2014 and again earlier this year it had already been considered one of the most damaging Cyber Attacks on record. The u. S. Plans to cut 40,000 jobs in its armed forces by september 20 18 and pentagon said it will save money but others say it will weaken security and jordan reports. The core of the u. S. Military is about to shrink in three years time the number of u. S. Army soldiers will drop from 490,000 to 450,000 is what the pentagon is calling a Necessary Force reduction. These cuts will impact nearly every Army Installation both in the continental United States and overseas. Reporter the cuts come as top generals are monitoring what they consider the most potent threats to the u. S. My assessment today senator is russia presents the greatest threat to our National Security. Reporter during the height of the u. S. Led wars in iraq and afghanistan 470,000 were on the payroll and the army says it will save about 7 billion with these cuts but its annual budget is still sizable at 126 billion, in fact, the u. S. Spends more on defense in a year than the next seven largest militarys combined and even though russia and china have more soldiers than the u. S. Washington spends about five times per Service Member as they do and means u. S. Troops have better weapons and training. Some in congress warn cutting troop levels is dangerous as they threaten deeper cuts in the coming years and some analysts say its not the size of the military but how you use it. I think we ought to have approach to our security and defense that allows us to have an even smaller army than this and is not to get into occupational warfare in countries like iraq and afghanistan and if we did that we would be safe with the small army we have today. Reporter Obama Administration wants to make better use of defense dollars and is betting this is not a security gamble. Roslyn jordan, al jazeera, washington. The head of the Catholic Church asked for forgiveness from bolivia Indigenous People in the second leg of the tour pope francis was addressing the abusive communities by the church during what he called the so called conquest of america and speaking to a works cooperative in santa cruz said poor countries should not be reduced providing cheap labor for developed nations and the pope will leave for paraguay on friday but before he does he will visit the violent prison and lopez reports and the Catholic Churchs influence is dwindling in the countrys jails. Reporter prisons in bolivia are over crowded and at times under control of inmates and this is one of the better prisons in the country but still it houses 350 in a space designed for 150. For many years the Catholic Church more than the state helped make life more bearable but this is seen by some to no longer be the case. Translator the church is no longer bringing the type of activities cultural and even sports that it used to but only coming on a few occasions to give mass people fill a gap and especially need that spiritual support. Two years ago that need was under lined in the prison. 35 people were killed in riots. The pope will tour the facility a message appears to being heard by fewer prisoners. The church has given inmates here an sewing workshop laundry room and better bathroom facilities but inmates seem to feel the spiritual guidance is lacking, a gap that the Protestant Movement is happy to provide. Translator they come here three times a week to give service and they have a church that they themselves built and you can see it filled with people frequently. Translator i no longer feel a prisoner even if im here. I free myself of guilt and that was thanks to the holy scriptures. The retreat of the Catholic Church in the prison is due in part to lack of priests and volunteers. The church has moved in successfully to occupy spaces that traditionally belong to the Catholic Church especially in jails here in bolivia and inspirational message and the presence inside jails has led many and has been criticized by people in the Catholic Church themselves. Translator we no longer have the impulse we get from the communities working at the base and that could give us those moments of reflection coming from the small shanty or the neighborhood block. Reporter pope francis prison visit on the trip is being seen by many here to fellow priests like he often says the church must become a poor church at the service of the poor. Lopez, al jazeera, bolivia.

Reporter this group of visitors is not touring the usual beijing attractions and come to the little donky farm to learn about farming and they are growing seasonal vegetables without pesticides and are welcome everyday to see it for themselves. Translator the real reason we founded the farm is that food safety had become a very serious problem in china. So serious that people here are encouraged to buy more organic products and for less than 300 u. S. Dollar they can get atlanta and grow vegetables and the farm trains them and provides the crops for them to go to the end of the december. She visits every week with her family. Translator when we grow our own vegetables at least we know its safer. Its impossible to be completely worry free but at least its better. Five times the cost of regular vegetables it is not cheap. But organic agriculture has become all the rage with the middle classes. More markets like this are cropping up in china and Delivery Service fors those wanting more convenience and becoming more commercial with big businesses investing millions of dollars in agriculture but its not about earning a profit tending to community farms like this one, its about Sustainable Farming and keeping people in the cities connected to the land to remind them to take responsibility for the world they live in and the one they leave behind.
