Desperate to make it into euro people climbed down a steep bank of concrete and waded into a cold river. They huddled over fires in burrowed into sleeping bags while waiting to board a smugglers boat in the woods. But refugee hopes of abandoning lives of stagnation collided with reality turkey may have open the border for them to leave but European Countries are allowing them in this is that it supports the reality of the human eye to here like thousands of people abdullah had shivered through 2 nights as the temperature dipped below freezing he spent most of his money to get here only to be tear gassed by greek police pushing him and other refugees back from the border my feeling is not good here i hope i come here for a hope maybe that will open the door checker to lee and his father created that door by cutting a fence and running into greece an hour later they were arrested jailed and then deported he says the police confiscated their money mobiles vital documents even their shoe laces.

It near the border with greece. Well its not just at turkeys land border with greece where undocumented migrants are gathering johnson reports from the greek island off where theres been an increase in numbers arriving by boat. This boat load of Asylum Seekers came ashore on the island of lesbos on sunday Police Stopped us from interviewing them on camera but this congolese man told me turkish people smugglers promised him and his wife a free ride while they were in church for sunday service this man from sierra leone says he was walking on the beach as the boat was being prepared he was told to jump in for free as well its unclear if someone is paying the smugglers to do that on the island north shore a boat load of afghans paid 500. 00 each to get out of turkey their deals with smugglers had been struck weeks before turkeys president the chapter you put on ordered the opening of borders with neighboring belgariad and greece both members of the European Union what did the agents say to you. This was the 1st day of significant arrivals since turkey opened its borders towards europe they want enough to create a logistical problem for the greek with origins but they were enough to make many of the people of lesbos anxious that they may once again face the sort of uncontrolled refugee flows experienced in 2015 and this time refugees would have nowhere else to go the arrival of a dinghy filled with refugees at the small fishing harbor affair to me led to a blockade as local residents prevented them from disembarking the coast guard brought the dinghy here after its engine failed t. V. Cameras were unwelcome and some of the scene had to be filmed at a Distance Police were unable to register other arrivals at morea camp the largest in greece it too was blockaded by angry islanders whove seen its population growth. So over 20000 since the new democracy government was elected last year to the cuban people believe the government didnt act quickly over 7 months there wasnt any increase in air quality of life trust has been lost in the island is turning into a giant hotspot. But other viewpoints will also on display this group protested at coast guard headquarters calling for refugees to be showed more humanity and greater support a stark reminder that migration is a defining political issue not just here but throughout europe jumpstart openness aljazeera lesbos people to judge is ending his campaign for the democratic president ial nomination the 38 year old former mayor of south bend indiana thanked his supporters there who did narrowly defeated Bernie Sanders in the Iowa Caucuses and finished a strong 2nd in New Hampshire but he struggled in states with large minority populations so why should everyone who supported me to continue in the cause of ensuring that we bring change to the white house is working to win the absolutely critical down ballot races playing out across the country this year. For more on this lets bring in alan fischer has run us from austin texas in an anticipation of super tuesday in a days time which will talk about in a moment but 1st. Alan so the democratic field is narrowing what more did he have to say. Well its interesting he was due to hold an event here in texas our own no actually but postpone those plans to head back to indiana. The reality is that he wasnt going to get the nomination he finished 1st in iowa but really didnt get the balance because it took so long to declare the results you remember that 2nd in New Hampshire certain of forth and so carolina things were not Getting Better for him the difficulty convincing voters of color to back his campaign really he didnt particularly any great new strategy any great new theory that made people want to vote for him nothing immediately studio so it was always going to be difficult for him and he also realizes too that its going to be difficult for the Democratic Party to be elected if Bernie Sanders is the candidate in his view he may not be correct in that and so to facilitate their be someone as well as bear on the in the final reckoning hes stepping away from the campaign at the moment we expect hell perhaps give his endorsement to joe biden the interesting thing is though that maybe not all his voters will go into the by the camp its also a political calculation for. Those who are choosing a lot of people have spent a lot of time and a lot of money and put in a lot of effort in all 12. 00 states plus the one territory the vote on tuesday to support the judge in fact 1000000 people in california have already voted many of them for me or pete but at the age of 38 he has a future and the Democratic Party and from the speech we saw just in the last hour you can almost guarantee youre going to get hes speaking sport at the Democratic Convention when it comes to crowning the nominee yeah alison just look ahead for us for super tuesday and particularly in the state of texas where you are how big a prize. Well there are 2 big prizes now and super tuesday california and here in texas it becomes really important super tuesday it really is super important because we suddenly get an idea of who is electable nationwide of course iowa New Hampshire nevada South Carolina all Little Pockets that all get specific things that you can see well thats important and this is important this really gives the folks nationwide picture of who democrats in particular believe could beat donald trump and so that is why this is very important so we will see a winning of the field we didnt expect it to happen 24 hours 36 hours before voting actually got underway but there you have it people to judge is no but it should give us a clearer idea we expect Bernie Sanders to do well according to all the polls hes doing well in texas which is surprising we expect joe biden to do well after his win in South Carolina on saturday it then becomes a question of where the bitter judges voters go and if you look at some of the recent surveys it would suggest that a lot of them are going to Elizabeth Warren which makes it much more interesting as well for. Things no become incredibly difficult. Is here in texas campaigning on sunday night tell us again about remember that name probably not thats because she is making no impact in this race and its surprising to still and so super tuesday is going to be super important and will certainly shape the face of the democratic race from here to the convention all right alan fischer thank you very much. So as allen saying super tuesday is just 2 days away its seen as the biggest day of the u. S. President ial primaries 1300 delegates are up for grabs and 30 percent of those are in california rob runnels reports from their. University students on the march for Bernie Sanders in los angeles showing the enthusiasm many young people have for the vermont senator as a woman who is blocked with hispanic who is my hero i believe hes the only candidate that truly looks out for me lead here in the biggest most diverse state in the us let tito voters are a crucial voting bloc i feel like hes the only candidate who has other countries in mind nearly 30 percent of the states eligible voters are latino and the vast majority vote democratic absolutely letting us have the power to shape outcomes but none of the candidates can afford to take let teano votes for granted direct contact is key to poc and door knock and outreach to the latino electorate thats important for a place like california its a huge robust state but you still have to be here polls show sanders leading by a wide margin in california followed by Elizabeth Warren with joe biden a distant 3rd the senators campaign would like to repeat its winning formula from nevada last month it put together a coalition of liberal whites young people and latinos polls show 3 quarters of registered lets you know voters are ready and eager to vote in the primary with its multiple large urban areas california is an expensive place to campaign multiple high dollar media markets right and its a big state right so youve got to think about barry got san diego and l. A. Are separate markets so youre talking about a lot of media spending billionaire Michael Bloomberg saturated california airwaves with ads but he has little to show for it hes only polling in the single digits. Early voting is been underway in parts of california for more than a week a big win in the west would not give sanders all of the 1891 delegates he need to win on the 1st ballot at the Democratic Convention in july but it could provide him with a lead that the other candidates might find almost impossible to surmount robert oulds Al Jazeera Los Angeles clinton more ahead on the aljazeera news hour including a major setback just a day after the u. S. Taliban deal was signed the afghan president refuses to commit to a prisoner swap. 3rd time lucky voters in israel gear up for polls again after the 2 largest parties failed to form a governing coalition. And support the qatar moto g. P. Is cancelled due to coronavirus restrictions on people writing on the country from italy. In the lead of. The 1st iraqs Prime Minister designate has withdrawn his candidacy a month after his appointment deepening a political crisis sparked by months of mass protests calling for a political overhaul. He made the announcement in a video posted online saying politicians are obstructing his efforts to form a government is move comes hours after parliament failed for the 2nd time in a week to approve his cabinet testers have also rejected him saying hes part of the same corrupt class theyre rallying against earlier one person was killed and 24. 00 others wounded during protests in baghdad denouncing him move on now we Security Forces fired pellets and tear gas at student demonstrators more than 500 people have been killed in antigovernment protests in iraq since october. It is the director of the center for the study of the middle east that Indiana University hes also a former iraq ambassador to the United Nations he says that without a change in approach the next Prime Minister designate will face the same fate single most important thing for up for for whomever the president designates next is the ability to obtain the confidence of Parliament Going to an outsider. Is always a difficult task because the outsider has no base of votes in parliament to begin with so that will continue to be a problem in my view the next government should be tasked by the president to accomplish essentially one task and that is to oversee the production of a full set of laws having to do with early elections just set a date for early elections this calendar year and to get the country to early elections in the hope that the electorate will. Break the gordian knot of the impasse were in now if it does what allow we tried to do which is to form a comprehensive sort of set of agendas which look like a matter of taking years to fulfill the next Prime Minister will have the same problem the next Prime Minister designate will have the same problem and staying in iraq 2 rockets have hit the green zone in the capital baghdad and so the u. S. Embassy and government offices are located so no one was injured in the attack.

S. Vice president mike pence made assurances earlier the majority of those infected will recover well there will be more cases theres no question but its not my confidence it is the confidence of all of our Health Experts who are widely regarded as the best in the world. That its important that people in this country understand that while there are 46 americans that we brought home from china. And in 22. 00 americans now sadly with one loss of life that the vast majority of those people in the vast majority of any american that would contract a coronavirus that will will be treated.

Well as you showed our viewers daryn the Vice President mike pence as well as the secretary of the department of health and Human Services alex as are were on the sunday Public Affairs shows trying to underscore that the trumpet ministration is trying to get a proper whole of government response to the corona Virus Outbreak you heard there on the Vice President saying that there will be more cases but there is a real concern in the country that the administration perhaps has not reacted quickly enough that its. Recent efforts to cut funding from the centers for Disease Control which is the Agency Responsible for dealing with Infectious Disease outbreaks in this country cutting staff cutting funding has made it harder for the federal government to respond to this crisis but they are insisting that they are trying to do the best they can and that people should not panic of course if you take a look at social media there is a lot of concern about this virus not just here in the United States but worldwide there is a writer jordan thank you for that update holes in israel open sore at me in the 3rd general election in less than a year israeli politics remains as fractured as in the previous 2 elections when no party was able to form a government iran contra ports from western muslim.

And everybody should have told hate is quite frustrating to look. Really see. It looks like its all to be the same because its our duty as a state to send and i hope now it will be a difference these 2 political leaders again center stage Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of the the could party and his biggest rival benny gantz leader of the blue and white party neither managed a majority in last years elections. So making deals with smaller parties is essential for me government netanyahu has other problems indicted in 3 separate Corruption Cases court cases his rivals say make him unfit to be Prime Minister there was through slim and across as there is a fair that this election will be inconclusive and israel will head to the polls for a full 3rd spoil a many are now asking the question whether needs to be political Electoral Reform theres no doubt that when a political crisis a political deadlock something that is unprecedented and that our electoral system needs a significant reform in order to ensure that our election system campaigns have a decisive outcome the israelis have had a caretaker government since april and voters hope that this election proves to be decisive imran khan aljazeera was truthful.

The story of the rise and fall of Hosni Mubarak the famine episode 10. 00. Theres a wave of sentiment around the world people actually want accountability from the people who are running their countries and i think often peoples voices are not heard because theyre just not part of the mainstream news narrative. Obviously we cover the big stories and we report on the big events that are going on but we also tell the stories of people who generally dont have a voice i mean when i was a child my thats a never be afraid to put your hand up not a question and i think thats what our series really does we ask the questions to people who should be accountable and also we get people to give their view of whats going on.

Iraqs Prime Minister designate has withdrawn from the top job after failing to gain parliamentary approval for how weak u. S. Politicians of obstructing his efforts to form a government. Would to be tried by all possible means to save iraq from drifting into the unknown and to solve the Current Crisis but during negotiations that faced many matches faced many obstacles that were relevant to the issue of the homeland and its interests i swear to god i didnt surrender and i didnt put my own interests above the countrys ones regrettably some parties were negotiating only for getting their interests without paying heed to the National Issue and without any consideration to the blood of martyrs. At least 5 Ethnic Rohingya killed on saturday including a child during fighting between troops and rebels and mars reclined states the classes took place in iraq. Army rebels launched an attack on a military convoy the rebel spokesman Government Troops for the us lets bring in florence though is joining us now from yang on. And you were taken on a tightly controlled visits were kind state florence just talk us through what you saw there. Thats right now northern recliners a restricted area and this is where the Myanmar Military was accused in 2017 of launching a violent crackdown against the mainly Muslim Minority now we were on a tight shot you we were only allowed 3 days and 2 nights in kind but we saw well and we couldnt really depart from the itanium array because we will because government mind as well with us all the time but we did manage to speak to wrangle who say they remain 2 years after the violent crackdown took place. We are heading into restricted territory foreign journalists require permission to visit the northern part of Rakhine State this is where myanmar Security Forces launched a brutal crackdown against the mainly Muslim Minority in august 2017 soldiers and were accused of raping killing and setting fire to. The buddhist majority myanmar government said it was responding to attacks and killings by an armed group called the salvation army. At the Uns Highest Court myanmar has denied charges of genocide and has been ordered by the International Court of justice to prevent further violence while the case is being heard. On this tightly controlled highly choreographed trip the myanmar government tries to show that all is well here in village after village brought to meet journalists in classrooms under the watchful eye of government mind is. On camera that seemed scripted or we have 3 community scares living like a family thats why i dont think we will be affected by completely off camera they were only slightly less reticent telling us they feared violence could flare again it was impossible to speak to anyone without being overheard by police in another village we were made to see government cash being handed out to. Local administrators say its to help the villages rebuilt the damaged homes this mosque still hasnt been repaired more than 2 years after the latest campaign of violence against the daughter and you can see all around the clear evidence of destruction by fire this place of worship would have served the people of this community who at one point numbers around 5000 people now there are only 200 living here around to 3 quarters of a 1000000 let to bangladesh and remain back when we do not think repatriation is a fallujah because as you know we have 2 Reception Centers and we have a transition camp we are always ready to receive them we even plan to open kindergartens 8 many Rights Groups say conditions in myanmar dont guarantee a safe return for the remainder of the last attempt to repack 3000 refugees from bangladesh in august failed because through him they refused to return saying they feared further attacks if they did the myanmar government wants them to accept alternative identification documents which rights activists say deprives them of their rights. That. Alterian motif of myanmar government. What they are doing they are also degrading their citizenship status. So. Willing to be. The rohingya have lots. To return to a phrase government restrictions on travel employment even Family Planning many doubt the situation will change anytime soon. The jungle leadership is trying to control it instead. Of having its you know this kind of populist wave. Is a very disgraceful thing until then the remainder will remain one of the worlds most persecuted minority. Now what you didnt see in the report is when we had an open opportunity to walk around the town itself but even then when we tried to speak to people there off camera they were reluctant one man told us that he was fearful that there may be informants within the community but some of the people we spoke to on the phone said that as long as they were hanging dont have citizenship and they dont have rights they will remain fearful and they dont they dont think that will be a future for them in the country now one u. N. Official said recently that want to be said that theyre increasing numbers of rain that may tend to human smugglers in that desperation to get out of the country now hundreds of well dozens of are hanged. For traveling out of that committed aerial for not having the right identification papers hundreds are in prison and really they were patty ation program its impossible to see how thats going to happen as long as none not doesnt address these issues of lights and citizenship that theyre working on a rights of florence thank you very much for bringing us that update from yangon and me and more. Lets speak about this further and bring in yes i mean shes a real hunger activist and president of rahane go Human Rights Network shes joining us via skype from vancouver over in canada thanks very much for your time with us on aljazeera so as were seeing our reporter was allowed into or kind stayed in a somewhat of a tightly controlled visits so. It sounds like the government is trying to control the narrative but i know that you are in touch with people on the ground you yourself were in camps just a few days ago tell us what the reality like is like on the ground. It is completely different from what a government is trying to paint it and to it is quite quite bleak in terms of the hopes of people. In in wanting to go back they are acutely aware of the situation on the other side of the river but theyre also very very much aware of the situation within you know in terms of the livelihood in the in the refugee camps thats not any better so my people are essentially stuck into 2 realms of these you know very very much restrictive from both sides but it slightly better in the camps. But a lot of a lot of the people that i talked to talked about family separation and how now that there is no internet in the camps as well as there is an ongoing internet shutdown within Rakhine State theyre not able to connect with their loved ones or check on them or be able to really connect with them and see theyre still alive why do you think of this is all happening despite a recent ruling by the uns top court ordering me amar to protect rohingya muslims. I think it all comes down to economic incentives and how the me and mark of a moment is desperately trying to paint a new picture a picture of reparation and you know amendments with the communities without actually mentioning that its its wanting to make amends with the way. Theyre essentially racing the identity of our people my people completely but at the same time also wanting the International Community to understand that its trying hard to to you know to smooth things over whereas you know its also imposing all these restrictions for example the internet shut down. And cutting off all all kinds of the communication that people would be able to otherwise have to the outside so its its more or less just trying to contain the situation and making sure that it does not lose any more interest of the foreign investments. I cant really i cant really think of anything else that could really make them this set desperate in wanting to really change the narrative right and you wrote in an op ed in the Washington Post in september of last year that the United States has a Critical Role in defending our human rights especially because other countries follow its lead how would you assess the u. S. Position on the roof and then by extension the International Community and where you are in canada. I cant really comment much on you know whats going on in the United States just because were dealing with so many different issues the impeachment trial just was just over i feel let me ask any mother where i mean do you think that the International Community has failed the rowing us. I think i do. Unfortunately anything that has to do with a genocide or mass atrocity should not take this long for the International Community to respond i think its a its a communal. You know a mutual failure from all parts from you know the i. N. T. s community to the actual you know International Communities that is supposed to really look out and protect you know the rights and freedom of the minorities. Its unfortunate that you know it took us almost 2 years 2 years and a half in order to to come this far but im also glad that you know we get to actually see the trial. Proceeding in terms of the trial in. The International Criminal court as well as the. International court of justice that just was just. There was just ordered for the provisional measures to be granted and in and for the case to proceed so there where theres a collective failure were getting somewhere but i think that the International Community can can definitely do more ok in furthering in advancing the rights of people we thank you very much yes i mean a lot for speaking to us from vancouver thank you thank you afghanistans president has cost on a key component of the u. S. Taleban peace deal gone these the government did not commit to releasing 5000. 00 taliban prisoners and says it cannot be a precondition for talks with the group a prisoner swap was part of the agreement signed in cats are on saturday sectors they might compare has expressed hopes that negotiations between the 2 sides will begin in the coming days.
