And past 2 years since the bronx referendum the conversation the Public Discourse surrounding leaving the e. U. Has grown uglier and uglier who would have thought only a few years ago that the word coup would be used in relation to britains democracy but thats exactly what these demonstrates the calling the decision by Boris Johnson to suspend or paroch Parliament Next Week the whole Boris Johnson of course sees it he sees it very much in somewhat procedural terms as a way of making sure the m. P. s are out of the way not in the equation anymore to make sure that the British Government can pass much needed legislation when it comes to the humdrum day to day stuff of running the country things like roads Education Health care and so on and so forth but these people and those opposed to leaving the e. U. Without a deal strongly disagree with that standpoint point believing very much that Boris Johnson wants to keep leaving the e. U.

P. s to stop him from achieving that the only problem is that time is running out m. P. s only have a matter of days next week to coalesce around a single idea Boris Johnson believes that hes delivering the will of the people onery the result of the referendum but parliamentarian say that they represent the real will of the people they will fight this to the end. To sudan now its been 6 weeks since a power sharing agreement was signed between the military and protest leaders but many of the young people who led the prodemocracy protests remain skeptical and say that their revolution has been devalued mohamed reports from the capital from. Theres an atmosphere of peace in. The agents not bullets are flying in public squares the outdoor time much cherished here is back even book sales are improving says come out incredibly its been in the business for 30 years from civil wars and state censorship kept his sales down. Kept about the new political agreement but it doesnt meet the aspirations of the people especially the young few for the regime leaders are being held responsible for their actions the young generation was under represented and into talks whats being done may well lead to a reproduction of the crisis this man is even more vocal. In its too early to celebrate need to continue our revolution is hijacked through a soft landing agreement by political entities that jumped on the bandwagon at the last minute and took us into talks of a power sharing the process is also conducted by western powers they brought people with 0 knowledge about sudan to rule us. Im now standing at the center of khartoum a place seemingly frozen in time with 0 progress colonial days only its filled with a new generation of people born in the situation and the crises under the regime of. Now hes gone there impatiently waiting for the fruits of change. From chants of violence to quiet National Songs they say for now they want to continue the struggle through different means without ruling out the likelihood of returning to the streets.

Solutions look there are human some of the people who have been appointed are ok its a 1st step if they just stick to their announced plans things will improve. Even if they need to meet our demands were still under the control of members of the Islamist Movement the deep state is intact and so is the security of paris. These views are not denied by some of the very partners of the agreement the problems are enormous you know you have the legacy the whole legacy of the system 30 years of. Corruption. Inefficiency were close we see that and. You know that about. Despite the skepticism many sudanese share the hope of a new land of promise but they know that if it happens its going to be a slow and difficult road ahead. And dizzier. The top u. S. Military officer says its too early to talk about a full u. S. Troop withdrawal from afghanistan general Joseph Dunford says afghans still need support to deal with the level of violence u. S. The moshi ages have been in talks with the taliban for months on the issue of troop withdrawal the update by dunford and defense secretary mark was the 1st joint News Conference in 12 months rosalind jordan has more from the pentagon. It was the 1st on camera briefing for mark asper the new defense secretary at the pentagon he and general joe dunford who is the chairman of the joint chiefs of staff wanted to update reporters on some of the major issues facing the pentagon as a spur starts his tenure of course those issues include the ongoing war in afghanistan the ongoing tensions with iran dealing with threats from north korea russia and china and then finally something which esper says is important to him as a veteran dealing with the physical and mental well being of Service Members and their families when it comes to the ongoing war in afghanistan which has been going on now for nearly 18 years esper and down for it agreed that conditions will dictate how and when u. S. Forces are pulled out of the country but they said that they were very much in support of all going u. S. Efforts to broker some sort of peace accord between the Afghan Government and the talabani any of us that have served there have long known that whats going to be required is a negotiated peace settlement in our afghan leading to that peace a moment and so when i think about it with you know when you say were going to withdraw i dont think about it as were going to withdraw i think about were going to initiate in or afghan ideally leading to peace and stability for the Afghan People and again afghanistan not being a sanctuary from which we can be attacked as for iran the both pointed to the standing up of what theyre calling operation sentinel the coastal operation to ensure safe passage through the strait of hormuz as far as whether the crisis with iran is over as for said that so far so good but he wasnt willing to say that things have actually been resolved when it comes to the matter of dealing with loss and china esper stressed its very important to understand that the priorities of the u. S. Military have to be focused on dealing with those as well as other unknown emerging threats in the future. Now its been 2 years since i saw was defeated in iraq more than a 1000000 people remain displaced that includes 300000 from the city of mosul iraqis are returning because their homes are being destroyed Security Fears and a lack of jobs some of them jobs reports from the can for the displaced and more civil. Life in a tent is exposed to all kinds of weather but even these makeshift homes are a blessing for hundreds of thousands of iraqis from mosul what used to be iraqs 2nd largest city. 11 year old with months old dan was blinded in one eye and suffered nerve damage when he was hit by mortar shrapnel. As mine is now mentally challenged our house in mosul was leveled life is so hard and i cant go home there is nothing there here in the camp we have access to services i cant pay the rent outside the tent the people of mosul from north to south are the victims of this war these many tens dont provide much protection against the elements but more than 300000 people continue to live in tents like the many tried to go back to mosul but then came back to camps because at least here they get some security safety as well as food and electricity. In mosul alone 138000 homes were destroyed have been repaired more than 50000. Of them. It will take many years and billions of dollars to reconstruct and the displaced have nowhere else to go the number one reason that we hear is that their homes are still destroyed that they simply cannot afford to rebuild their hoping for assistance from the International Community and the government but its just so far insufficient in addition to the destruction most of these families carry the stigma of having lived and. The mostly sunni muslims who fled mosul are viewed with suspicion and seen by some as i see collaborators lack of trust as an obstacle to the return of the displaced the uns migration body says revenge killings enter tally action against those suspected of links with threats and to trigger new cycles of into communal violence the organization managing this didnt allow us full access. Of what people were telling us informed someone to inform them we were stopped from filming a woman who said her husband was forced to pledge allegiance to and disappeared after iraqi forces regained control. Husband was a policeman beheaded by she struggles to provide for her 7 children and thinks hell stay in the camp for the forseeable future. I dont have pension my children need care they require money to survive we are living off charity and donations. Whenever we receive help my house is in a remote area and we cant go back now the areas abandoned and dangerous to return to many families were killed when they returned. With martin most of his friends grew up on the rise to rule enough to last a size that doesnt bode well for the future of mosul where 60000000 and tribal divisions run deep some of the job without is there a good account. And on friday in the 3rd part of our series from morsel. Reports on the pressure on the Iraqi Government to reveal what happened to the thousands of men who disappeared. Now human remains have been found at the site of a former Detention Center in europe why the center was used to torture a political appointee during the countrys last military dictatorship more than 30 years ago a Forensic Team exhumed an entire skeleton buried a meter deep the whereabouts of 192 people who disappeared during the dictatorship is still unknown.

Now the gap in Life Expectancy between the rich and poor in the United States can be as much as it is and its the access to health care that is causing the less well off to die andrea and john hendren deports now from chicago. In america where you live can determine how long you live you give anything in a blink so yeah. Yeah i can consume you sometimes hard problems. Of that to some extent the lifespan gap between rich and poor exists everywhere but when New York University Medical Center studied the us the biggest disparity was here in chicago that gap is surprisingly wide even where the distance is short on the north side among the gleaming high rises of the citys streeterville neighborhood the average lifespan is 90 years 15 kilometers away in impoverished englewood its 60 that is Larry Richards age you know in englewood you beat the odds right all my life and money which leads to Better Health care or no health care least a better food better diet and rich people are just more aware of their bodies than poor people or they care more about it and they can afford the health care exactly. In streeterville residents have easy access to medical care a Healthy Foods and a safe place to exercise here you can essentially buy a longer life because here is segregation in poverty go hand in hand people in the south and west have been hit by. All the ills who the society the gun violence is off the charts allowed to depress you have drug addicts in this running rampant on the west and south side of chicago some blame access to health care some blame a lack of Healthy Foods but researchers say the biggest cause of shorter life spans stress has what they call a weathering effect chronic disease sets in earlier people have a rough life and pushed around their whole life and are being bullied their whole life and so what you get is a physiological reaction to be. In some ways a victim of a lot of the social distribution of status in our society and there is a element of class to this and theres an element of caste meaning race is long is that divide remains researchers say so will a life span gap john hendren 0 chicago.

Negotiators have been in talks with the taliban for months on the issue of troop withdrawal the update by dunford and defense secretary mark esper was the 1st joint News Conference in 12 months but those are the headlines on aljazeera do stay with us and sad story is coming up next. City survive Climate Change its one of the reasons indonesia has decided to move is this a solution to Global Warming or could it create an environmental disaster this is inside story. Welcome to the program. Indonesias capital is collapsing overdevelopment pollution and knock Climate Change forcing the government to move out of jakarta the city relies on pumping out ground water for drinking and irrigation a vast pos of the city is sinking by up to 25 centimeters a year with sea levels of population of 10000000 is more exposed to floods than ever before the government wants to build and your capital on the island of borneo more than a 1000 kilometers away if approved construction could begin next year and Civil Servants will move there from 2024. We cannot continue the burden of to carter and the island of java which is getting heavier in terms of population density severe Traffic Congestion air pollution and water problems that we Must Immediately deal with the place weve chosen has a minimum risk of natural disasters such as floods earthquakes tsunamis forest fires volcanoes and landslides but secondly the location is strategic at a slow catered in the center of indonesia and thirdly its close to other developed cities. Now jakarta is not the only major coastal city threatened by Climate Change shanghai is consistently listed as one of the worlds most vulnerable water extraction massive infrastructure have caused the city to sink 2. 6 meters and if temperatures continue to rise millions of inhabitants could be displaced the nigerian city of lagos suffers from the affairs of rising sea levels and the lack of adequate drainage makes the flooding worse its estimated at 20 centimeter rise in sea water would make 3 quarters of a 1000000 people homeless in the us parts of the flood prone city of houston have been sinking around 5 centimeters a year with oil and gas extraction worsening the situation. Lets bring in our guests here in the studio is until mohsin and it is an assistant professor in residence at Northwestern University in qatar in jakarta via skype jasmine put saree senior forest campaigner for greenpeace indonesia and in copenhagen imagine where was your assistant professor of Disaster Management of the university of copenhagen welcome to the program and to relocate in the capital city is if the whites move well. Movement the decisions to move the capital city jakarta to cali month and i believe signals 3 things. Nationally president djoko we do order or wants to be more inclusive. For the conception of indonesia geographically. Economically he wants to move away from the java Centric Economic Development that has been dominated the Economic Development in the country and environmentally as he said in his announcement he wants to live eat some of the burdens that jakarta. Right now the biggest city in indonesia. And reduce the number of population there but what politicians say sometimes will really be reflected in reality and greenpeace does not seem to be really happy with this move just meant. Yeah we see that the moving process is very hasty and there was no inclusive process and it seems like greenpeace see this as a threat or environmental cost because. We already have some analysis and it seems the new no capital will be allocated to me are conservation and protected areas and then the more far south there are that is our main concern and theyre not to mention and they need. Us amount and we are pretty much sure that there will be a lamb conversion process imagine what it will come to that for estates and show the man well should the government betroth it just cause its all moved to another location to achieve sustainability. Well its a very difficult question that that that a lot of governments will start facing with regard to these sort of urban challenges it was not very long ago if you look at a report World Bank Report in 2010 with said that we might have to consider some of these relocations or governments might start considering some of the locations in the future and that future is already now so. I think theres a lot of questions if we if indonesia. Is it really needs to consider sort of the environmental damage is it when can it could sort of bring up what would happen inside inside the country how how how would this sort of build a new will the new 50 how should the new city be built i think i think thats an important consideration to be made. Whether or not you rebuild and this is the question primarily that comes up after almost after every disaster is how do you how do you rebuild how do you recover from disaster when the rebuild in the same location where you are you are forced to move and i think those are very difficult questions and one would not have an easy answer to that since these are difficult questions. And to do just because this is something that should have been debated extensively of the parliament with n. G. O. S why mental agencies and also the indigenous population should be involved what weve seen so far is that this has been a unilateral approach by the government by the president himself of course. All those stakeholders the groups of people that you mention need to be consulted but it hasnt necessarily been a final decision yet because the president needs an approval from the parliament so one of the debates that can occur is in the parliament that can bring all those groups together in the conversation. Justin do you think that the parliament would take into consideration thats moving to a new area could in danger of fire john ecosystem in danger. Species there is this going to be a top priority for the Parliament Well the Parliament Well from the parliament perspective there is this political statement earlier today they said that they are basically agreed to to the concept and theyre not to mention that the government already has the. Concept forest concept but this is also a big question what turner concept and decide that is because there hasnt been any. Dialogue or a comprehensive decide that happy consol consult it out like that yes from greenpeace perspective this will be very environmentally correct that i think. Emerged well is it safe to say that this is something that could potentially alleviate some of the concerns the bulls into a new place because my concern is this good bring us back to square one because when you move to a new location you have more people you have overcrowding over exploitation of water so back to the same environmental disaster that were created in different bigger cities like the carter. Absolutely and i think that thats really really an important consideration to be talking and as assman said this really should we should we should be talking about really nonny all inclusive dialogue all inclusive approach primarily because there are no natural disasters there are only Natural Hazards and disasters are actually human made saw a lot of the time we see natural disasters and blame it either on Climate Change or extreme weather thats not the case theres thats only a hazard but its about how we build the city thats what causes that causes the disaster and and youre right that this could this whole movie depends on how this new cities envisioned in this place in indonesia or in many other parts of the world we see massive sort of processes without taking into account some of the marginalized populations very often that we see after disasters who is affected important question is whos affected why are certain groups affected more than the others. And whether or not these questions we come into play is an important is an important factor because a lot of times we see after every disaster that it is the most marginalized the little groups that get affected more and more. And these are all questions of power structure money and power and very importantly even lack of access to basic resources to some of these people and also some issue of this matters because until this is no lot of 1st time the International Experts have been saying. Joe carter will have one day to face this reality because of right blunders and mismanagement and poor planning so where the government seems to be setting aside those real issues and saying you know what we have to move to a new location i think you have to divide the issues of jakarta facing old is dangerous as you say its sinking faster in the northern part in particular air pollution Traffic Congestion and all that with the idea of. Having your car as a capital city you know i think president joker we dont mention in his announcement that when he move the capital from jakarta to distil locations jack carter will not necessarily be abandoned will not necessarily be neglected or forgotten even jakarta will always face those problems but the city has been the center of social cultural economic politics life of the country for so long so perhaps by moving. Part of that center the Political Center the Economic Center card would be able to face these issues that its been having a little bit easier without having to worry that this is also the capital city of the country but then again were talking about past governments the squabbles squandered billions of dollars theres embezzled of public lands massive corruption so they seem to have forgotten the core issues which is the need to further upgrade infrastructure in one of his like the carter didnt do that well you have to remember that the current president president yoko we dont used to be the governor of jakarta for a brief period of time before he ran for the presidency in 2014 so he knew some of this issues that dzhokhar is facing i think i believe that he saw that what you said mismanagement in the past blunders lack of class
