A new European Union efforts will be launched to enforce an arms embargo on libya which is being floated so much that its been described by the u. N. As a joke it was an einstein after meeting of e. U. Foreign ministers in brussels and earlier mission collapse last year after disagree. Events with italy where the new mission is to involve air land and naval assets which are stratfords as in the libyan city of misrata will cross live to him after we get more details at the United States from john mccain hes in berlin for dominic the German Foreign minister heikal mass says this agreement has been reached what else city have to say the important thing to remember here is the impetus of the German Government has been trying to bring to resolving what can be resolved to drive to bring warring sides together for some considerable time certainly mr maher spoke about the need for progress in this issue just this weekend at the Munich Security Conference but its also something that his entire government has been working on as i say for some time people will recall that in january there was a conference here in the german capital bringing together all the main players in so far as they could be brought together to try to thrash out some form of progress here so when he spoke to reporters in brussels it was clear for him this was about trying to increase International Pressure to find a resolution what he had to say. I would assume movie and of a musician libya is also about the security of europe so everyone must be aware that we have to make a contribution to ensure security here in europe those who are thinking about migration must realize that these problems can only be solved with libya is no longer a failed state when there is a security structure with which we can work. The other thing to say here is that the austrian government was has been an impediment until now that is regarding what sort of measures could be input could be put in place because clearly the austrian government is very resistant to the idea of easing ways in which migrants perhaps goods could go across the Mediterranean Sea from libya into the European Union certainly that was uppermost in their minds and until today ok so when it came there in berlin and i thank you as cross to libya now and charles stratfor joins us from Misrata Charles what sort of impact is that u. N. Embargo likely to have in their beer. Well it certainly according to diplomats cording to the u. N. By government today according to experts straw for any kind of effort to stop any involved has failed dismally going into the u. N. They say around it could be up to chew on 100000. 00 tons of on registered on controlled as they say weapons in libya that flow has continued and is increased in recent months to what it was suspected certainly with respect to the un backed government to have what they think they think that all diplomatic efforts thus far put forward and made a trip which must fall put forward by members of the International Community and the europeans suddenly savingly waking up to this crisis and taking the lead the g. N. A. T. The u. N. By government is saying that they have failed so far and how the renegade general in the east is ignoring any kind of on the standings that have been put forward for any kind of solutions to this crisis that have been put forward in previous meeting. It go to all socratic questions as in terms of the challenges of morna showing the code isnt this huge country its not just the long mediterranean coast of china the analysts point the finger at weapons coming in from egypt in support of hof tour and then of course there are those borders all know down into the say hell in the south into africa which all very difficult so moment to date its going to take a lot of money and of a big logistical challenge if this indeed is going to work i mean the towns that has been one year since the bad police in the long time leader Moammar Gadhafi a turbulent few years to say the least. Well thats right speaking to the. Here at this celebration of the beginning of the revolution lets just put this in context the structure is very important in terms of the history of the revolution statement the fight has hit with a main fighting force against rogue a daffy full series they lost a lot of main to get around 3000 fighters were killed in that fight they will show us a lot of men in the subsequent fight against dyson in 2000 from 2016 i would say that fight now effectively won so the g. And i says here disputed by half the. Show a few significance to this city the celebration of this revolution i spoke to some people here earlier one man said that this was highly symbolic he said when also the ballot the kind of chubbiness that this country hes enjoying at the moment will speak described as a civil war now saying you know just this celebration have any real significance when were losing civilian lives people are being killed and around according to the 150000 the u. N. Saying have been displaced what is day to celebrate he said this is a celebration to show to show sure poults against those that are enemies of democracy very much a finger being pointed at hofstra many people here see him as basically being the equivalent of gadhafi and of course gadhafi overthrown in that revolution eventually in 2012 so a very big day for people here in misrata and as weve been saying earlier today a very big day in tripoli despite being a repeat crisis the wall that this country is in during right now. For life as a misrata and i thank you. All to pakistan when the 7 people have been killed in a blast thats a rally in the western city. 50 others are wounded some.

Essentially we decided that the circumstances in which they were going to provide the flight and the requirement that we do another 2 we quarantine as though we hadnt done one already just was not acceptable to us and in fact the new smell that they put 14 infected people on the flight with everyone else has just confirmed to us that they werent really providing a safe method of transportation back to a United States everyone is directed to remain in their cabins the exception is for those who have indoor and inside cabins and just window cabins they are provided an opportunity to go on deck there are protocols to keep them apart i dont know how well they are succeeding i dont know but in terms of that we have remained in our cabin now for 2 weeks and have not crossed the threshold no ones come inside and we do go out on our balcony but if there are other people in surrounding balconies we tend to come right back inside so the main thing i saw lation that are men suspected of the virus will save a clot comports 9 from hong kong.

Places outside of who by a total of 115 new cases were reported on sunday including 5 new did the number of newly confirmed cases outside of who has kept declining for 13 days in a row the number of new confirmed cases remained at a relatively low level.

Lets get more on those u. S. Evacuees and cross live to kimberly whole kit kimberly 2 planes from the lungs and from the region so far whats going to happen so those passengers. Well the u. S. Government set up a task force a number of weeks ago and so those efforts put in place are now being implemented those passengers are going to 2 different locations other military base in texas or another in california and there are more military bases around the country that are on standby if theyre needed later on now the concern is for the from the standpoint of Health Officials in the United States is the asymptomatic spread of this virus in other words those that dont have any exhibited symptoms can still pass the virus on to another person and as a result draconian containment measures have been taken are taking place and that is that there will be an enforced quarantine of 14 days for these passengers that have just arrived in the u. S. So you have to remember theyve already been in isolation for 2 weeks now the clock starts ticking for another 2 weeks bring it to a total of one month that these passengers will be separated from the rest of society and kimberly however people were reacting in the usa to the return of these passengers. Well there are some that are showing compassion on social media for example but there are still others that are growing increasingly nervous about the fact that those that have been infected and some that havent been but may have been exposed to the virus they are coming back to the United States the concern being of course what if this gets into the broader population so far there has been an effort not a very good one to kind of put out the Public Health information and as a result there is a lot of confusion on the part of the a more ordinary public there are many who are maybe confused that the 2nd wave of just the typical flu in the United States could in some way be connected and other problem is the u. S. President who has put out information saying that you know when the weather warms up come april this will all be resolved but his own advisers are nervous for a couple of reasons number one they dont understand this they dont have a vaccine for this virus number 2 they dont feel completely confident that the Chinese Government has been fully transparent so theres some concern that exactly about what Health Officials are dealing with and also trying to get that Public Health information out in the wake of confusion even at the highest levels of government ok campbell a whole lot for us in washington d.

Ease the financial crisis but protesters are denouncing his new cabinet and say they still wants a complete overhaul of the political system well Irans Parliamentary elections are happening on friday but much of the attention has been on the candidates whove been disqualified from standing for than 7000 applicants were told they cant run including current members of parliament as a day reports from to her on coming to terms with life outside of politics after 4 years as a parliamentarian mahmud saw that he has now been told he cant stand for reelection he says he was told by the Guardian Council the body that oversees iraqs elections its because he does not a baby establishment he rejects that and says he wasnt surprised by the councils decision if you dont want to it wasnt very unexpected for me considering how the Guardian Council make decisions they didnt provide me with complete evidence they made notes of comments on the media and my tweets due to some of my speeches and tweets over recent incidents it seems like they paid attention to them. Others say being a committed parliamentarian doesnt guarantee candidacy wildhorse the issue about the law says for example a candidate should have a good reputation and be committed to the constitution these are not issues one can prove in court the Guardian Council should see if one is committed to the constitution or not. Out of the 81 members of parliament barred from re standing its many politicians from the Reformist Movement who have been singled out they say they want the publics political system to be more open and democratic but thats opposed by conservatives who argue change isnt needed this level of disqualifications has not been seen since the 2004 parliamentary elections when conservatives won the majority of the seats thats led to increased criticism of the council the vetting process and calls for reform more and more the Guardian Councils interference has hurt its position and damage his reputation and unlike what they say its because of the interests of the establishment of parliament should reflect peoples voices and peoples voices have variety they should let different opinions be present in the parliament it will lead to a dynamic parliament and peoples hope one of the reasons that theres a predicted low turnout is because people feel disappointed the Guardian Council has rejected criticism that its decisions are politically motivated and some predict conservatives are set to make gains in this election president rouhani has put forward a motion for a referendum on the vetting power of the Guardian Council but if conservatives win the majority of seats in these elections that motion is unlikely to pass and the status quo will continue setting the stage for next years president ial elections and a possible change and political direction.

Was hoping that this was going to send a message that iraq was safe again but after months of protests Business Owners and all of us in street say that there was where i think that just because rage is reopened and these calls people are just started. The basis is going to get any better. Husayn ali sunglasses shop lies in the shadow of those barriers.

Turkey and syria are now in direct confrontation to all intents and purposes but in the middle of all this of course are the civilians in syria who are traps what sort of impact is all of this having. They seem to be paying the price of the situation that is unfolding now in different parts of the northern part of see a particularly of the oscars of aleppo and it live you can see some spectacular 2 narratives here in Syria Government our allies are celebrating in aleppo celebrating the new military gains of spectacular military gains made by the syrian army over the last few days particularly in a little bit of the same time were talking about hundreds of thousands of people stranded on the border with turkey these are people who were forced out of their villages as the military campaign intensified over the last few days but this time they have nowhere to go they cannot cross into turkey because talking has c. Of the border with syria and therefore does just set up towns along the road all the roads leading to the border with turkey fortunately for most of these people they dont have a chance they dont have stoves to he they dont have clothes they dont have food and theyre very concerned the concerns from the selves the concert for the safety of their children and they feel increasingly betrayed by the International Community they say that they immediately need help otherwise many people will die against the backdrop of the harsh weather conditions the problem here is that the International Community is grappling with ways to send aid to those people because for them to be able to provide the immediate assistance they have to travel long distances sometimes to those camps but those fighting halfway through some of those areas which means that perhaps aid wont be able to get to those areas in the immediate time theres been a video thats been circulating over the last few hours in one of the areas that was hit by a by a government strike and the White Helmets managed to retrieve a syrian from under the rubble but he was crying saying that. Let me die because im tired of this sort of miserable life this sums up the generals sentiment among almost a 1000000 syrians stranded on the border of turkey they have nowhere to go a live lost hope in the International Community ok how are their life for us on the Turkish Border with syria thank you a gunman in brooklyn a fossil have killed 24 people in a church included the Church Pastor in the village of poncy a gunman then set the building on fire its the 3rd religious attack in the area within the last week.

The military and the British Forces they have nowhere to go a lot of them have fled to my dear a lot of them have fled to other parts of the country and theyre living in very precarious condition. I think it is time that these conflicts were brought to the un and it needs to be brought to a final conclusion on it would take a lot of work from the government and separatist forces to sit around a table and discourse about the root causes of what brought us to this place in the 1st place through from the open Society Initiative in west africa thank you very much there are a 1000000 people displaced from this conflict that started off just a few years ago people english English Speaking people that wanted that wanted the government to recognize their identity as English Speaking and despite this the attacks have intensified in that region as we said earlier on we have not been able to access those areas but szymon Rights Organization have been seeing and have been accounting for numerous attacks villages being burnt down and we just spoke to people who were there when these attacks to place they tell us that theyre in a state of fear that the bear this special force is still patrolling the area as well as the boys the separatist movement that are trying to fight for their independence so caught in this are innocent civilians trying to flee this conflict hala back to you ok Nicholas Hytner live for us in dhaka and i thank you.

Now activists in russia who are concerned and government plans for one of the Worlds Largest facial Recognition Systems are taking legal action they fear the Surveillance System is being used to pinpoint critics of president Vladimir Putin for they say law abiding russians have nothing to fear a correspondence that vasant has been given exclusive access to Police Headquarters in moscow. Mosco fights are being watched closely 200000. 00 cameras will be installed not only on public streets but also at the entrances of private living quarters not many people are aware that there biometric data images body measurements and other characteristics are being captured real time and transmitted to police monitors within moments a persons identity can be determined and his place of residence. Of the person is on the wanted list it means he is a criminal if you have not committed a crime you dont have to be awarded the. Fight if he is a caught on camera russia is taking the phrase big brother is watching you so a new level with biometric Data Collection seemingly available at nearly every 3 corner. Easily catch criminals but critics say theyll keep a close eye on activists opposing the putin 3 dream at the same time. Police have been accused of using Face Recognition Technology to crack down on Peaceful Protesters during a wave of antigovernment demonstrations last summer. She was arrested after taking part in a protest in 2018 she filed a case against the police at a moscow Court Dismissed it she will mount a not a legal challenge against a Technology Next month is. By using facial Recognition Technology the state violates peoples privacy and im saying theyre doing it illegally im convinced that they are collected. Jews are biometric data and they dont have a right to do so they must stop. But the company that designed it acknowledges sas it system is being used legally in russia an activist should be more worried about their mobile phones when youre talking about your phone so your job position is always on. Who is all the content is monitored which youre saying you know therefore.
