Continue to Seek Solutions with its Security Council partners or decide to go it alone mike hanna aljazeera United Nations and adrian brown joins me live now from beijing adrian so how realistic is it to expect china to cut off the oil and sever diplomatic ties with north korea. Look i think in the short term there and there is no likelihood of china cutting off the oil or indeed severing diplomatic relations china still maintains a very large embassy in the north korean capital and of course there are thousands of chinese nationals living and working in north korea as well as people going there to holiday i think what were seeing at the moment though is a growing realisation a creeping realisation here in china that perhaps the United States might be prepared to go it alone and of course china believes that only diplomacy ultimately can resolve this crisis but its clear from what were hearing from the United States from the United Nations that solving this by diplomacy is really futile thinking so china i guess will try to keep up the pressure on pe anyang but you know any suggestion any belief that we had that you know china really had influence over north korea really is beginning to sway i mean just a few weeks ago china sent a highly ranking diplomat to the north korean capital but he didnt get to meet the north Korean Leader now in the past whenever a senior chinese official went to pyongyang hes always guaranteed a meeting with the dear leader that didnt happen this time it was another slap in the face for china from the North Koreans now getting back to oil darren we know that china back in september agreed to cut oil supplies to two Million Barrels a year now the United States believes that up until then the chinese had been sending up to six thousand barrels of oil products a day to north korea now about what trump now wants is for china to cut off everything the oil the food everything that it sends to north korea and remember theres still an awful lot that the north receives from china ive been to the city of done wrong many times that faces north korea and over that friendship bridge you see lorries trundling backwards and for. Its now were told that the friendship bridge is going to be closed for several days for repairs apparently at the request of north korea also were told there and that china has now suspended all stopped. China services from beijing to pyongyang but that i think is more symbolic than meaningful or a danger and we have to leave it there adrian brown there in beijing thank you now the u. A. E. Has dismissed allegations by the former egyptian Prime Minister ahmed shafik that hes being stopped from traveling. Hes being blocked from leaving the u. A. E. After he announced plans to run in egypts president ial election next year if he had left egypt after he lost against a Muslim Brotherhoods Mahmoud Morsi in the twenty eleven election hes been a strong critic of egyptian president at the fatah sisi. My fellow egyptian citizens i have announced my intention to run in the president ial election and i was planning to start a tour amongst egyptian communities abroad before going back to egypt in the next few days however i was surprised to find out im prevented from leaving the u. A. E. For reasons i dont understand and im not willing to understand ive often stated my appreciation for the u. A. E. For hosting me however i reject any intervention in egypts affairs by preventing me from participating in a constitutional right well sahara zis is a professor of law at Rutgers University she says she has a strong following including those in the military. I think its reasonable to assume that the Egyptian Government is publicly saying its a role behind the scenes because the u. A. E. And egypt are very strong allies right now particularly with sisi at the helm and so the question is why wouldnt sisi want to come back to egypt to run for the presidency and i think the answer is by clear which is the sisi does not want to serious contender he certainly needs a contender but one that is known to be weak and will not win the election but simply create the appearance that the next president ial election will be competitive and shafique will be a very serious contender if you look back at the two thousand and twelve elections for example there were thirteen and then nine candidates and sure figure ended up being of the final two or so that shows that he was able to have enough popularity to be a finalist and he barely lost to morsi and one of the reasons is because he is very well connected to what is now known as the deep state in egypt and military is currently at the head of the state so his connections and his reputation with the military is one that none of the other contenders would have and he is likely to leverage any existing divisions within the military and to leverage popular discontent with sisi particular on Economic Issues because inflation is at thirty percent unemployment is at thirty percent for youth so he will leverage that against sisi to perhaps even win the election u. S. President donald trump has attacked the british Prime Minister of tourism a for her condemnation of his anti islam retreats trump said three anti muslim video some a far right British Group to his more than forty million followers a spokesman for may called trumps actions wrong but this is what the u.

K. Sodje job it is now saying that what mr trump has said is reprehensible and that he would use his own position as a public figure to try to fight against this sort of dissemination of bigotry and hatred and of course it is worth pointing out that at the beginning of Donald Trumps tenure as president there was active discussion in the u.
