The humanitarian situation in yemen has been deteriorating because the conflict its not just affecting children its affecting us everyone who i mean its affecting seventy five percent of the population so concerned is that as long as complete continues we are going to see more and more. Secure were also going to see more and more humanitarian needs and rights as well so children and women the elderly people with this you can live on abilities they are suffering the most in yemen at the moment but it is widespread as mentioned we have the majority population really affected by the commitment and a need systems is a humanitarian agency our concern is really the protection of the welfare people who have been affected by the conflicts are you know has been made since the conflict to really try and ensure the protection of civilians were seeing that people are continuing to be displaced by the conflict wont continue to cease in casualties and were just continuing to see other Communicable Diseases rise as well as there were yemen as a result of conflict is dealing with a lot of rising prices and were seeing a widespread perception issues in that as a result of the conflicts there its got to do with children dropping out school its also got to do with women and children now being false debate being exploited being in particularly vulnerable situations so we are going to see more and more consequences as a result of really just rationing trying to say but also being very vulnerable sickly vulnerable situation as a result of having no resources and really exhausted all that can be mechanisms dozens of pakistani migrants afia drowned off the coast of libya more than one thousand migrants while a boat which capsized off the city of ten bodies have washed up on shore the International Organization for migration says that three people survived or were attempting to cross the mediterranean to italy. The u. S. President is accusing the leadership at the f. B. I. Of being biased against him while investigating his alleged links to russia in a tweet in the last up donald trump approach the top leadership that investigators at the f. B. I. And the Justice Department have politicized the safe. That investigative process in favor of democrats against republicans something which would have been unthinkable just a short time ago rank and file are great people he said the white house is expected to release a controversial memo on how those two agencies investigated alleged russian interference in the twenty sixteen election helen fisher reports from washington. The memo has dominated talk in washington for days donald trump was even asked about it as he left his state of the union speech something. That was going to happen that imagine if the four page memo was written by republicans on the House Intelligence Committee it alleges a misuse of power by the f. B. I. And Justice Department under the Obama Administration while investigating the Trump Campaign during the u. S. Election the f. B. I. Issued a written statement arguing that there were important details left out which would fundamentally impact the memos accuracy and the Justice Department says releasing the document would be extraordinarily reckless its the president who must make the ultimate decision to declassify and release but no after a National Security review the white house is blanked out some parts of the document and sent it back to the committee it can no be published at any time at a gathering of republicans in West Virginia the president made no fresh mention of the memo but afterwards speaking to the media Republican Leadership defended the idea of its release this memo is not indictment of the f. B. I. The department of justice it does not impugn the moeller investigation or the Deputy Attorney general what it is is the congresss legitimate function of oversight democrats have argued the release of the memo over the objections are all part of a campaign to undermine the investigation into alleged russian meddling in the president ial election in fact the leading democrat in the house has called on the republican chairman of the Intelligence Committee they have a new news to be removed in a letter to speaker. Ryan nancy pelosi says congressman is has abused his position to launch a highly unethical and dangerous cover up campaign for the white house congressman nunez deliberately dishonest actions make him unfit to serve as chairman and he must be removed immediately from this position leaving democrats on the Committee Says the row doesnt serve the American People the memo is seriously misleading because it omits very Material Information and has deep factual inaccuracy. Knew this was part of the Trump Transition Team and last year recused himself from leading the russian investigators and now he will decide if he will release the memo that he wrote on an inquiry which continues to divide washington and the country alan fischer aljazeera washington lets face it as White House Correspondent kimberly how could he joins us now live from washington so the president s been tweeting this morning accusing the leadership of the f. B. I. Of being biased against him can believe what are we to make of that well i think what were to make of it is that this is a highly politicized process that is existing right now in washington you heard there in allans report and you read the tweets at the start of the show the president very much trying to implicate top leadership at the f. B. I. And the Justice Department of having politicized the sacred investigative process in favor of democrats essentially what hes saying there is that he believes senior Law Enforcement has abused surveillance laws to essentially eavesdrop on members of his president ial campaign by the side from the political fallout from all of this what are the Civil Liberties implications here. Right well what you heard there from the Speaker Paul Ryan when he was speaking in dallas report there touched on something very important if you listen to the entire speech the implications of this adrian may have nothing to do with politics because there is this risk that it could not live up to the hype that could essentially just fall flat because theres an awful lot of expectation but on the Civil Liberties side americans have long not known very much about the process under the Foreign Service intelligence act Court Surveillance for obtaining that warrant under the fire as a warrant and tries a Court Essentially to to spy on americans if they learn from this process that in fact its simply just a a rubber stamping and its quite easy to obtain that is going to cause outrage not just among the ordinary American Public but also those who have studied it more since in a more sophisticated manner for example in the rights lawyers even Civil Liberties advocates so there could be an unintended consequence of this certainly the f. B. I. Has expressed its grave concerns about this on the grounds of National Security and many are starting to suspect it is for this reason so what is this new news memo going to be released and is it going to add fuel to the fire or put it out. Well that that is hard to determine certainly it could be released at any time in fact we thought that it would come thursday and it would be released from the white house we know went through a process of being observed and looked very carefully by the legal team there we know that it was redacted and then it was sent back to that House Intelligence Committee we know that democrats on there are very angry that their own memo was not released and so there may even be a vote at the Committee Level on whether to release this new redacted version so weve had various sort of machinations that have occurred over the week the memo no longer resembles the form it did at the start of the week it could be released on friday very unclear at this point all right kelli many thanks White House Correspondent kelly help at the live in washington. A former president of the multiverse says that he plans to run elections later this year after a Supreme Court ruling quashed his conviction for terrorism offenses Mohamed Nasheed has been living in exile since twenty sixteen hes calling on the government to respect the ruling which acquits him and his colleagues early opposition supporters and police force in the capital after the sitting president fired the chief of police he had planned to follow the courts order and release Political Prisoners.

I think youre. Speaking of the i dont know that theres an issue that has said that he will contest in the upcoming election i think the only development that there is is that now hes able to say that with the Supreme Court ruling that he is a viable candidate to contest as long as the courts ruling is upheld by the government. Has previously also said that if hes able to he will be contesting in the upcoming his partys primaries as well and if he wins the primary in the president ial election as well that the political prisoner so the Supreme Court should be released now that the fire chief of police has gone are they going to stay in jail will they be released. Or to start did we had a while an. Attorney general. Spoke to the press just a while ago and he said that previously. And had said that they were looking into implementing the courtroom they needed to. Figure some things out and in this latest press conference it original said that he had personally met with the chief justice and that the government especially the prosecutor general had some concerns regarding legal concerns regarding freeing these Political Prisoners as a lot of these prisoners are convicted in high profile cases such as embezzlement those terror charges the former Vice President of the charge of trying to smear president as well its a bit of a political divide in the maldives at the moment how can the country overcome that and how regional players involved in whats going on currently in the maltese. Right now its difficult to say the situation is very fluid its looking and. Any bit of a Going Forward i think. From the post of the position were looking at. Many many changes that have have to be made. As soon as theres new elections and i have a new com and that includes legal if. You constitution of independent commissions not to say anything about efforts to conciliate. The political divide and thats still a question the. Incoming government would attempt. Any at any.
