Well, the white house is defending president Donald Trumps threat to close the u. S. Mexico border. The president fired off this on twitter sunday. The democrats are allowing a ridiculous asylum system and major loopholes to remain as a mainstay of our immigration system. Mexico is likewise doing nothing. A very bad combination for our country. He also closed with what could be a vague threat. Homeland security is being so very nice but not for long. The white house isnt just threatening to seal the border, the state Department Says its cutting off aid to three Central American countries, guatemala, el salvador and honduras. Mr. Trump has accused those countries of setting up migrant caravans. The acting white house chief of staff backed his boss on sunday. We could prevent a lot of whats happening on the southern border by preventing people from moving into mexico in the first place. Right, but thats what the u. S. Aid money does is it makes these countries more stable. This is not according to me. This is according to experts in your own administration. Okay. Career staffers. Lets talk about that for a second. If its working so well, why are the people still coming . Why are these historic numbers, again 100,000 people will cross the border this month alone. That is that is a crisis. Its a humanitarian crisis. Its a security crisis. U. S. Customs Officials Say there is a crisis at the border and its pushed them to breaking point. They are dealing with a surge of Central American migrants and facilities are packed way beyond capacity. Thousands of migrants have been released over the past week in south texas with more expected in the coming days. Cnns ed lavandera has more now from el paso. Reporter communities like el paso here along the u. S. Southern border where we are are waiting to see if President Trump is going to follow through on his threat of closing down the border. Here in el paso, this is one of the main bridges that takes you from the United States into mexico, into juarez mexico. Tens of thousands of people use bridges just like this up and down the border in texas which crosses the rio grande and other ports of entry from new mexico all the way to california. It would be a significant blow to local economies and local communities if these ports of entry are closed. Not to mention just to people everyday crossing you see family and friends to get to work, to get to school, but also economically. There are millions of trucks with goods that cross back and forth across these border points of entry every day. It is part of the economic engine that exists daily between mexico and the United States. So the threat of closing down thee border points of entry is taken very seriously here along the u. S. Southern border. And then theres the question of what is being done to process the large amounts of migrants that are coming here to the u. S. Southern border. Just underneath this bridge over the last few days there had been hundred of migrants essentially being stored there by Border Patrol agents as they waited to process these newly arrived migrants. Were told as the images of these people standing behind these chain link fenced started to circulate around the world, that area has been shut down and though migrants have been moved to other facilities. Over 100,000 apprehensions, if those numbers hold true, that would be the largest number theyve seen along the southern border in more than a decade. Critics of the administration say the administration is simply trying to create a sense of chaos with the images coming out of the border to try to bolster their argument for the National Emergency and building more border wall in these types of communities. So that is what is going on here. Many people looking here toward the week ahead as to what is going to happen next and if President Trump is going to follow through on closing down the border points of entry. Ed lavandera, cnn, el paso, texas. Thanks for that, ed. President trump is expected to travel to Southern California this week near the mexican border. Heres what some of his political opponents were saying about the border on sunday talk shows. When the president says hes going to close the border, that is a totally unrealistic boast on his part. What we need to do is focus on whats happening in central america, where three countries are deassembling before our eyes and people are desperately coming to the United States. The president s cutting off aid to these countries will not solve that problem. You have a terrible humanitarian crisis. You have women and children traveling 1,000 miles or more, often by foot, in order to escape the violence and poverty in their countries. So what we need to do, of course, is, a, comprehensive immigration reform, but, b, we need to make sure that our borders are secure, but also we need a humane policy at the border in which we are not yanking tiny children from their so would you keep these children in detention. Thats not what america is about. And cnns ana cabrera spoke earlier to a u. S. Border patrol agent in texas and the chairman of the Texas Democratic party. They offered very different views on the situation on the border. I think the issue here is both sides have failed to come together and act on this. Theyre the ones that can change this. Get in there and fix this loophole with this catch and release system because we dont have any more places to hold these folks. The places we have set up arent for long term. Were shortterm facilities. We dont have the means to care for these people. Its unsafe for them. Its unsafe for our agents. Its unsanitary and its inhumane. They need to get to work or step aside and let somebody else come in that will do it. I want to come back to you on the solutions, but we had the head of the gop in el paso, basically your counterpart on and i asked him why he thinks its getting worse into the border crisis two years in the trump presidency. Listen to what he told me. Thats why there are family units coming across today, because they know that there is a law that protected them and it was set for a specific issue a number of years back and now its been taken advantage of and its being promoted. Thats why we have what we have. Do these people have problems in their country . Without a doubt. We have a civil war and we had an American Revolution and people stayed here and fought for what was right. These people need to learn to stand up for whats right for them, too, not just one. Whats your responsibilie to . Well, i mean, for him to say that these people have the ability to stay in locations where their children are being murdered every day, their daughters are being raped by gangs and that they shouldnt take any action to try to save their families and to come over here to try to find some kind of refuge is pretty cold blooded, as far as i can im concerned. Look, i mean, its pretty sinister and more than disturbing that this president is using human suffering to manufacture a crisis so that he can build a wall in order to please his rightwing base. Thats not what americas all about, and thats not what we should be doing. We should be finding solutions through a comprehensive Immigration Program where we look at the asylum program, figure out how we can accommodate some of these people that are coming to this country in order to save their families and at the same time ensure that we are securing our borders. The Trump Administration is not even doing that. All they want to do is a bunch of hype. You know, talk about closing the border. What good is it going to do to close the border in the state of texas or any border state . You know, there is 1 billion of commerce that passes through those border stations all across the border. 1 billion that creates jobs in the United States. Why would you want to penalize americans because youre wanting to create and manufacture this crisis so you can get this stupid border wall . Thats what this whole argument is all about. You know, i understand that a lot of these Border Agents are working 24 7 to try to ensure that they can do their job, but most of these refugees, most of these people that are seeking asylum, theyre coming in the front door. Theyre not sneaking across the border. Theyre not crossing the river on inner tubes, theyre walking to the border station and asking for asylum at that point, and what mr. Trump is doing through his administration and hes taking these people, putting them in detention and then releasing them out into the community to make it look like there is chaos and that something has to be done immediately, hence he makes the argument for hi bords border wa. This is not what were all about. Americans can see right straight through this. We didnt create this problem. It was dumped into our laps. Weve been doing the best we can for the past five years. Finally the wheels are starting to come off this thing. Nobody wants these points of yernt entry, but we may have to do that in order to get the problem fixed. Everybodys kicked the can down the road since 2014. Its time to get it done. Manufactured crisis. I dont understand that. Maybe you need to come and strap on a pair of boots and walk around with me for a day and youll get that little catch line out of the vocabulary real quick. Its a real crisis. We have men, women and children risking their lives every day because we have this beacon of light beckening them in. Once theyre here, where do we house them . Where . We dont have any place left. Unless you guys have some answers or some empty space somewhere because we dont have it down here. That was Border Patrol agent Chris Cabrera and Democratic Party chair speaking earlier to cnns ana cabrera. A woman accused of killing kim jonguns half brother could soon see freedom. This woman pleaded guilty to causing hurt by a dangerous weapon as part of a plea deal. The Vietnamese National and another woman were arrested in 2017 for wiping poison on the case of king jongnam. An automatic reduction means she could be out by may. Her alleged accomplice was freed last month after her charges were dropped. Now ivan watson is following the story from hong kong. He joins us now live. Good to see you, ivan. So this vietnamese woman was facing a mandatory death penalty. Now shes accepted this plea deal. She could very well be free as early as next month. But why did she receive such different treatment compared to her alleged indonesian accomplice and how has this been the end point to all of this . Well, rosemary, my suspicion is that in the case of the first suspect who was abruptly released after the prosecutor dropped charges last month that indonesian lobbying had a great deal to do with that decision to set her free. And the moment that happened, that put the onus on the vietnamese government and the Defense Attorneys for her to say, hey, this isnt fair. Both of these women faced the same charges. This is not justice if our suspect now, our citizen will be the lone person to take the rap for this. So that was an immediate argument made by the defense, made by the vietnamese government as well, and ultimately the prosecutor did offer a lesser charge against her, provided she accept a guilty plea for this charge of, quote, voluntarily causing hurt by dangerous weapons or means. Now, the judge spelled out that the penalty for this was a maximum of ten years in jail, a fine and whipping, though he ruled out whipping in the case of a woman. He ultimately gave her three years, four months. Her Defense Attorneys think she may be out within a month. This does seem to be drawing the trial for one of the most brazen assassinations in recent history, drawing it to a close without either of these suspects ever really testifying about what they said was them being fooled into carrying out this assassination. Right. And ivan, when we look at this outcome, it looks like these two women initially at least were the fall guys for this crime. So what about the true suspects in this case . There are four north koreans who are wanted, but managed to escape malaysia quite quickly after the initial murder took place in kuala lumpur airport in february of 2017. At that time there was a diplomatic spat between malaysia and north korea. North korea effectively holding malaysian diplomats hostage, so there was a kind of informal swap that took place. So those wanted people are gone and missing. The Defense Attorneys for the vietnamese suspect, they told me last month that the real criminals here are those north korean agents. Will they ever face justice . Probably unlikely the way things are going right now. And the vietnamese ambassador was quoted as being quite pleased with the end result of her now facing a much smaller sentence. The judge the prosecutor have said there had to be some kind of charge and crime and sentence for the sheer brazenness and seriousness of the crime on the grounds of deterrence, to perhaps try to deter other organizations or groups from trying to carry out murders in the Main International airport and gateway in and out of malaysia in the future. Rosemary . Indeed. Well see, of course. Thank you so much, ivan watson. Bringing us the latest on this story from his Vantage Point in hong kong. Appreciate it.

The British Parliament is scrambling to save brexit. On monday lawmakers are set to vote on a short list of alternative options for how the uk could leave the eu. A Customs Union with the eu is thought to be the most likely preference. The deadline clock is ticking down to april 12th, the new divorce date, less than two weeks away. British media report theresa may is expected to hold a fourth vote on her withdrawal bill, and if it fails again, there is speculation she might call a snap election. One of her Party Members was asked if they were planning on that. Were not planning for a general election. The conservative party are you preparing for one . Well, ill be completely straight with you. We have got a we have got a minority government in a turbulent time. So we, you know, just in terms of sensible, pragmatic planning, but we are not seeking, preparing in that kind of sense that i think you mean for a general election. What the government, what the party, what mps are focused on, for the most part, and should be focused on is delivering brexit. Well, Stephen Erlanger is the New York Times british correspondent. He joins me now. Good to see you, stephen. You, too, rosemary. So the British Parliament will be considering its options on april fools day. The Customs Union with the eu appears to be the most popular alternative at this point. Hardline brexiteers wont support this. The question is whether you can get a majority of members of parliament. Thats not at all clear because what happened last week is that everyone voted on all kinds of options, but none of them got a majority, including Customs Union. Customs union seemed to be more popular than other things. So lets say they do vote a majority for Customs Union. Im not sure they always understand what a Customs Union is or what it actually means, but then Prime Minister may will have a very difficult choice because thats very much against what she has promised her voters. So she will, i think, try to bring her deal, which was negotiated with the eu over 18 months, back to the commons as a runoff against the idea of Customs Union and try to finally get it passed. If not, then were going to have a problem because then i think shes going to have to decide, you know, whether to go ask for a long extension from the eu for brexit, which she says she doesnt want to do and wont do, or whether she wants to throw her cards up in the air and call for an election, an election shes very unlikely to lead the tory party into. So its a very dicey time. I mean, it wont get resolved today, but well have a much better idea of where britain is heading, i think. Yeah. Its fascinating she will put her brexit deal to a fourth vote. As you say, its hard to know what the outcome will be, but if she does call this snap election, a lot of conservatives dont want to see that happen so they could rally behind her deal or behind this customs deal. Well, yes. I mean, her strategy forever has just been to force tories to look at themselves and their future and say were better off giving in, getting out, backing her break deaxit deal. We will have delivered brexit as we promised and then we can negotiate whats next. What were talking about with the Customs Union is really the future, its not the divorce deal. And, frankly, any new government or even theresa mays government can negotiate any future deal they really want. Theyre not actually beholden to the political declaration which is nonbinding. Whats binding is leaving the european union. So its either leaving it with her deal, which is very unpopular. Im not sure the speaker of the house will let her get a fourth vote. Or changing the givens, and the givens are those she deeply, deeply rejects. Now, if they go back to the people, the difficult question is either in a general election or a referendum, how do you ask the question . Because both parties, labor and tories are so divided internally about brexit and how to do it. So thats the other problem. Its not clear an election will be clarifying. We wont even dare speculate what will happen the next few hours, but well be watching very closely. Stephen erlanger, thank you very much for your analysis. We appreciate it. Thank you, rosemary. In turkey, primarily results show president erdogans ruling party is leading in the majority of the local municipal elections. That is according to state media, and even though ballots are still being counted, mr. Erdogan is already celebrating. Translator this, they need to know, i will remain for four to five years further as the president of turkey, right . And the akp will be ruling, right . So well be in the parliament as the publics alliance, right . We will continue the same way, just as we came here. Turkeys Main Opposition Party leader says his party won the local elections in istanbul and ankara. We will bring you more on the Election Results as the details become available. Well, in europe, remarkable developments in another major election. This one in ukraine. Exit polls in the countrys president ial rose show comedian Vladimir Zelensky won the first round followed by petro po porchenko. Comedian Vladimir Zelensky certainly no laughing matter in the ukrainian election. It looks like hes on top after that first round. It seems as though his political inexperience. Hes never had any sort of public office. Also might have been one of the positives. At least for many voters because no experience also means no political baggage as well. One of the things that zelensky was running on is, of course, a platform of anticorruption which is a giant issue in ukraine. Zelensky came out and voted for all the people who voted for him. Hes now in prime position to possibly win a runoff thats going to take place april 21st. Things could be murky as far as the field of candidates is concerned. The current incumbent is in second place, which would qualify him for a runoff, but poroshenko making no disguise of how he feels. He understands that reforms in the country have not gone fast enough. A bit of a wild kurd is yulia timoshenko, she used to be the Prime Minister. However, so far, shes not buying it. She believes shes actually in second place and would therefore qualify for a runoff. So certainly things still very interesting as the votes are being counted, as all these candidates are looking forward to a runoff thats going to take place on april 21st. Fred pleitgen, cnn, moscow.

This as Officials Say they are struggling to process Central American migrants. President trump blamed democrats on twitter. He also gave what could be another threat, saying Homeland Security has been nice but may not be for long. One of the women accused of killing kim jonguns half brother has accepted a plea deal and could be freed as soon as next month. Back in 2017, doan thi huong and another woman were charged with killing king jongnam by smearing poison on his face. Charges against the accomplice were dropped. Turkish president erdogans ruling party is leading in most municipal elections according to turkey state media. Voting ended sunday across the country and ballots are still being counted. Turkeys Main Opposition Party leader says his party won in the key cities of istanbul and ankara. On monday the British Parliament is set to vote on alternative options for how to leave the eu. It comes after Prime Minister theresa mays withdrawal bill was defeated for a third time. One of the options is for a socalled soft brexit which would leave britain in a Customs Union with the eu. Well, former u. S. Vice president and prospective president ial candidate joe biden says not once, ever in all his years on the campaign trail did he ever believe he acted inappropriately. Biden was responding to allegations from a former nevada state lawmaker named lucy flores. She says he made her feel, uneasy, gross and confused before a Campaign Event in 2014. Here is her description to cnn of what happened. Very unexpectedly and out of nowhere, i feel joe biden put his hands on my shoulders, get up very close to me from behind, lean in, smell my hair and then plant a slow kiss on the top of my head. And that in and of itself might not sound like its a very serious thing. That in and of itself might sound like it was innocent and well intentioned, but in the context of it, as a person that had absolutely no relationship with him afterwards, as a candidate who was preparing to make my case for why i should be elected the second in command of that state, to have the Vice President of the United States do that to me so unexpectedly and just kind of out of nowhere, it was just shocking. Cnns rebecca buck has more reaction to the allegations against biden from washington. Multiple 2020 candidates are reacting to these allegations against the former Vice President , saying lucy flores should be believed. But those same democrats are also stopping short of saying this disqualifying joe biden from running for president. Leaving that judgement to the voters. Well, i think thats a decision for the Vice President to make. Im not sure that one incident alone disqualifies anybody, but her point is absolutely right. This is an issue not just the democrats or republicans, the entire country has got to take seriously. It is not acceptable that when a woman goes to work or is in any kind of environment that she feels anything less than comfortable and safe. And this is an issue the entire country has got to work on. I have no reason not to believe her, jonathan, and i think we know from campaigns and from politics that people raise issues and they have to address them, and thats what he will have to do with the voters if he gets into the race. Well, again, i dont know aside from this one issue. I havent, you know, even this issue i dont know all the details, but i think hats wthat we have an election. Thats that process. Okay. Certainly its very disconcerting and women have to be heard and we should start by believing them. I believe lucy flores, and joe biden needs to give an answer. Should he not run as a result . Look, thats for joe biden to decide. I believe lucy flores. We need to live in a nation where people can hear her truth. Vice President Biden responded to the allegations with a statement sundaying saying in part, in my many years on the campaign trail and in public life, i have offered countless handshakes, hugs, expressions of affection, support and comfort, and never once, never, did i believe i acted inappropriately. If it is suggested i did so, i will listen respectfully but it was never my intention. According to our reporting, biden is expected to announce his decision on 2020 in the coming weeks. Its not clear how this will impact that rollout or his candidacy more broadly, certainly this cannot be the focus biden wants as he prepares to jump into the race. Rebecca buck, cnn, washington.

Well, venezuelas embattled president Nicolas Maduro is responding to the countrys ongoing blackouts by calling for shorter work days and announcing a 30day plan to ration electricity. The blackouts have created even more devastation in the long troubled nation. Frustrated venezuelans have taken to the streets protesting the lack of resources. Our David Mckenzie is there and spoke with people pleading for change. Reporter theyre banging anything they can find, pots and pans. Theyre out on the streets here in caracas. I have to say theyre blocking off roads here with fire barricades and all the way down this long avenue there is a long section that has been blocked off. Way down at the bottom there are the police. Now people here have had blackouts for days. They havent had water for many hours, sometimes days as well, and theyre extremely frustrated. We dont have water, we dont have electricity, we dont have security, we dont have many things on the hospital. We are broke down. Venezuela right now is broke down. Are you angry right now . Oh, yes. Very angry. Translator look at how were doing. Is it necessary in this country that is so rich that we have to live like this . Its miserable. Its not fair. Do you think this will have any impact coming here on the streets . I think everyone is hoping that. What do you want to happen . Change. Thats it. Im a student. I have two jobs and i cant afford anything. I live with my parents. So were asking for a change. Thats it. The police are staying away for now, but there are governmentsponsored gangs in this area that people are very vary of. Despite the electricity, despite the water issues, one older woman told me they dont care about those issues. What they want is for maduro to go. David mckenzie, cnn, caracas, venezuela. Meanwhile, venezuelas Public Hospitals are struggling to treat patients as they endure harrowing conditions. Cnns paula newton spoke with some of the workers who risk dismissal if they voice their concerns. Just this warning, viewers may find some images in this story disturbing. Reporter take a close look. This is an emergency pediatric ward in venezuela. Overcrowded, unbearably hot, run down, rudimentary treatment everywhere you look, and from nearly every bed and every child, a harrowing story. Like this one. Natalia rojas has not named her baby girl born in early march during the first countrywide blackout. Shes restless and feverish. Doctors suspect meningitis. She needs a can but it cant be done. Scans, xraies, the blood lab havent been operational for months. We have been given exclusive access to two pediatric wards by outraged medical staff who say they can take no more. There are shortages of every medicine and medical supply. Not even the special formula that malnourished babies are in need of. As we walk through abandoned wards with decrepit equipment, there is no sanitation or power. We have seen them again and again in hospital after hospital. Reporter and now this, brush fires just outside the hospital. With no water they are left to exhaust themselves, smoke and ash coming in through the windows. Cnn contacted hospital administrators and the Venezuela Health ministry about the conditions and did not receive a reply. When we have an emergency, she tells me, we have no way of resolving the situation in most cases. We have to improvise. Its like were combat doctors. At war in more than one way. She says doctors are threatened with dismissal and sometimes even physically abused if they speak out. Its been three years since this doctor risked his career to give me a rare look inside a crumbling venezuela hospital. Since he has not only been fired for speaking out, but just a few weeks ago he tweeted that authorities had come to arrest him after he met with a visiting u. N. Mission to raise the alarm about hospital conditions. He is still in hiding. Its definitely become worst. Reporter dr. Alejandro crespo is a friend of his and says there can be no debate, venezuela is under collapse. Ask their mothers. Their kids are dying in a hospital bed because of a lack of medicine and they can do nothing. Reporter medical staff tells they feel as if theyre sent into battle every day knowing they will lose, leaving weary patients to plead for their childrens care. As venezuelas political conflict rages, this remains its front line. Paula newton, cnn, venezuela. And well take a very short break.

Meteorologist Karen Mcginnis is tracking the aftermath of that storm. She joins us now. So karen, what are you seeing . This has been a combination of events that took place in nepal. Its not unusual during the month of april that we start to see these storms, but to see the intensity that weve seen when the afternoon storms are fired up, just about 120 kilometers to the south of can area in the farmer region well to the south. I think when we start seeing more and more image from this area, were going to see quite a bit of devastation. Several dozen facilities. Hundreds of people reportedly injured.
