Hes demanding Electoral Reform he lost her a cannot and august election which was nullified by the Supreme Court due to irregularities minimal or has the latest from the capital nairobi. Raila odinga supporters a bally needed any prompting to return to the streets. Theyre demonstrating against Kenyas Electoral Commission which they believe wont conduct a free and fair rerun election. But supporters are divided on him dropping out of the race. Which he lost was. The Supreme Court laid to rule that being irregularities in how the vote was counted and incumbent were. And should stand in new elections you cannot vote one election. I think of what i think are the best option but we are not but. Because of the pressure so yeah out that they are not happy. Police fired tear gas protesters as there. Was. Adamant. On any reforms. Election. Kenyas constitution is not clear on what happens once a candidate with force from everyone but parliament has now passed amendments to electoral laws that could allow kenyatta to be named the winner. Twenty six and the president speeds i mean. Then its very easy to say that well have a president with. Respect from. The Electoral Commission will decide what happens next but if any of his decisions can be contested in court kenya faces one of many possibilities including declaring incumbent president who are kenyatta as the only remaining candidates the winner of the rerun all Holding Elections and then declaring kenyatta the winner oh holding fresh elections within ninety days with new nominations for president. Says he should be declared president ordering guys pushing for fresh elections in a pronouncement from b. C. Will not be believable and the conduct of. Both the conduct of the commission as it. Has not been inspiring. Whether its a faltering economy or an ongoing political feud all kenyans are guaranteed at this point is uncertainty. Aljazeera nairobi. Is a writer and political analyst in nairobi she says decisions leans the vote for a run up in the air. Before nine a. M. Today the law was on rayless side you dont just have to look at the constitution and elections act but can is elections actually governed by five different bodies of law and looking at all those things and together at least on paper by nine a. M. This morning the law was on his side what changed was the fact that we had another election petition filed by one of the candidates who conceded the august eighth election i could do a court and in that decision the high court basically said everybody gets to be on the ballot and we have again with the candidates that we had in june and august version of the elections or and that basically throws raynas gabble into disarray into disarray because its basically says. Instead of what the previous regime said which is what one candidate pulls out of a rerun we have to go back to nominations now theyre saying well well just do the same thing that we did in august all over again and its not clear how the commission is going to move forward because these two pieces of law dont exactly read well together spain is given a cut Alliance Leader carlos put them out until monday to say whether or not he has declared independence if catalonia does press on with the session the Spanish Government says it will take away the regions political autonomy lawrence lee has more from madrid. Madrid does not like being told what to do by the cattle lands for once parliament was united as the journalist speculated the cabinets agreed the spanish lion bit back against the cattle and demand that their independence will happen the Prime Minister said you say it out loud and we will take back your powers no dice no deal and you have until monday. Youve held a Cabinet Meeting and weve decided the cattle government must confirm whether or not they have declared independence regardless of whether its going to take effect or not this is a requirement necessary before any other measures can be taken by the government including invoking article one if you divide. So back it goes to barcelona madrid no society there is split some separatist wants a session now others are nervous half the population hates the whole idea how long should they wait we know there are very important governments and people around the world who are ready to assist in mediation weve got the group of the elders with coffee with a bank you move on with that one to two who are ready to exercise their mediation the only small detail which we are missing is that we have nobody on the other side of the table because i just said he was not accepting mediation. All the while europe looks on surely not another country fracturing itself there is no support at all in brussels for the Catalan Independence movements madrid knows that it is the side with the powerful friends. Many people in madrid regard roys statements his demand that catalonia clarify its position on independence as a shrewd one by putting the ball straight back in catalonia courts it potentially exposes divisions inside the independence movements that might buy madrid some time take the pressure out of the immediate situation but also leave the crisis open ended. Where the protesters in barcelona go from here is a good question madrid would like nothing more than for them to turn on each other destroy their own movements that would rule out the need for mediation which madrid insists there is no place Laurence Li Al Jazeera which it so where can catalonia scoreless from here to the hall takes a look we dont know what hes going to say or when hes going to say it we havent a hint of what the governments position might be from an interview with aljazeera by a Senior Member of his coalition in which he basically says look what theyre offering here is dialogue without preconditions theyre talking about a framework for mediation that really doesnt have a lot of distance to travel because madrid has consistently said theres no place for mediation mr a hole in parliament reiterated that on wednesday afternoon there is however another avenue of talks which may have opened up that comes courtesy of the head of the socialist party the main opposition in madrid saying that hes reached an agreement with roy in the Popular Party to set up a commission in parliament to spend six months looking at constitutional reforms in the way that the regions are government but basically to give them more autonomy now this begins to look like a real enticement to the catalans to mr policeman in terms of saying there is a way for you to end up with a constitutional settlement with greater autonomy but the price for that will be to give up independence altogether and that is a price that may be too high for mr amount to pay. Claymore head of the news hour including it has been more than a decade since liberias civil war why some say they cant move on and its home to africas Largest Oil Reserves so why is there massive fuel shortages in south sudan where in juba to find out and support fee for secretarygeneral jerome approaches the court of arbitration for sport to have its ten year ban from football lifted. With with. Canadas Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has wrapped up his trip to washington d. C. A visit dominated by the future of the north American Free trade agreement u. S. President donald trump suggested the tough talks to rework nafta could fail and then mexico might be dumped from the three kountry pact but mystic about the negotiations saying the meeting with trump went well the talks were held against the backdrop of another trade dispute over a hefty duties the u. S. A slap on canadian made airplanes alan fischer pasmore from washington d. C. With the forefront of talks aimed at drawing up a new north American Free trade agreement underway here in Washington Canadian Prime Minister justin to door came to meet with President Donald Trump the donald trump has been on the record since the moment he moved into the white house that he would like to see a new nothe agreement an agreement that has been in place for almost twenty five years and both canada and mexico see until this point has been walking relatively well but top wants to see a new modernized agreement and Justin Trudeau a says that is understandable in the circumstances but while donald trump says he may want to walk away Justin Trudeau believes there is the possibility that they can come up with a new deal and he says its up to the politicians to convince people why it is such a good thing. Part of getting these trade deals to move forward requires us to get support public support for these trade deals and demonstrating that were hearing the concerns that people feel and responding to them i think helps significantly in making the case that trade can and will be good for all citizens before Justin Trudeau came here to the Canadian Embassy to address the media he was sitting in the oval office with donald trump at that point donald trump said whether or not there was a new deal really still is in the hands of the negotiator so its possible we wont be able to make a deal and its possible that we will we have a great personal relationship and we have a relationship now as as two countries i think theyre just close as ever but well see if we can do the kind of changes that we need we have to protect our workers and in all fairness the Prime Minister wants to protect canada and his people also the three governments have set a time scale of the end of the year to come up with a new nafta agreement Justin Trudeau is Still Believes that possible but he will go from here in washington to mexico will meet with the president to discuss the progress in the talks and what to do if it cant be an agreement. Writer now in washington d. C. He is out a serious political contributor and a Public Policy professor at George Mason University bill always good to talk to you has has us president been actually clear about what it is he will wants reworked about nafta he said you know general things like protecting workers but has it really been clear beyond just talking about it on the campaign trail in generalities well a lot of people think a lot of Business People think that this is all a pretext for getting out of the nafta deal i mean a relations between the United States and canada which are always assumed to be very close are probably at the poorest level theyve been in our lifetime for many decades and it took donald trump to make that happen a lot of Business Leaders in the u. S. Chamber of commerce normally a staunchly Republican Organization things that trump is trying to use these negotiations as a pretext to kill nuff to Justin Trudeau actually also met with the house ways and Means Committee you know trying to to make to get some progress on these negotiations how unusual is that for the leader of another country to meet with members of congress in that capacity. Well its not that unusual i mean israelis do or the world what these really Prime Minister actually spoke to the members of Congress Without even writing a great one that about him because. So its not entirely unusual and here is sort of a strange situation because there is a civil war going on in the Republican Party between the president republican President Donald Trump and the republican establishment in congress the republican establishment is very close to business but this is a deal the nafta the idea of killing nafta is anathema to business it would create chaos in a lot of American Industries farming and particularly automobiles and they are dead set against ending nafta and you know who supports ending nafta labor unions who are not normally allies of many republicans so many say that that there are a lot of differences between a lots of members in congress and and donald trump on this is that the reason that Justin Trudeau said im just going to take it straight to to congress to see if i can get some allies and theyre on my side exactly because hes likely to find a lot of allies in congress including republicans who have become increasingly critical of President Trump and republicans who are very close to business and have very good relationships and often get a lot of money from u. S. Businesses and particularly the chamber of commerce bill who else how is this i say there are other countries that are paying attention to how this is going how this is playing out publicly the fact that you know donald trump may be looking to get out of an agreement that seems to benefit all parties for for twenty five years what are they getting out of that this countrys what are they looking for. Well theyre looking for some evidence of the United States is committed that the Trump Administration is committed to upholding americas role in the world that weve always been a good trading partner a good Security Partner he doesnt seem to be interested in any of that person doesnt mean anything to him that is things that have happened in the past hes willing to overturn everything and the third partner in this mexico of course is in a lot of danger here because of its relationship with the United States if nafta ends that could be a very very bitter note between the United States and mexico which is where Justin Trudeau is headed next ok Bill Schneider live from washington thank you turkeys deputy Prime Minister says recent diplomatic tensions with the United States are overblown last week the u. S. Embassy in ankara suspended faces services after eight local staff member was detained accused of links to last years failed coup and response turkey stopped issuing visas from Consular Services in the u. S. The Turkish Deputy Prime Minister spoke tonight in washington d. C. You know i want to be very clear we dont want these dispute to last more than a second. We respond that you know likewise because two keys a proud nation we are a silver nation. You know we seeing that you know this decision has to be reversed thats got to dianas to reckon washington d. C. So diana what is the latest what is the status of basis with these two countries. Well there still at a stalemate its still a point where u. S. Citizens cant travel to turkey and there and people in turkey who dont have a valid vsa cant come here and this was all prompted last week by the arrest of consulate employees who allegedly according to the turkish government had ties to this turkish businessman who they say was behind the attempted coup last year now some sick was here to sort of smooth over the waters he was here to emphasize the fact that not only has turkey had a very long political relationship with the United States but an economic one to seventeen one hundred u. S. Companies do business in turkey theres about twenty billion dollars in by a lab or a bilateral trade between those two come countries every year so he says economically we both need each other also at the state same time turkey is looking to increase investment Foreign Investment in that country he said he thought that the u. S. Reaction suspending those pieces was a kneejerk reaction he said that he thought that the u. S. Should give turkey the benefit of the doubt and let the judicial process play out at the same time though today the u. S. Ambassador to turkey john bass says his office still hasnt gotten a good explanation from ankara about why these employees this one employee and another one earlier in the year had been detained had been arrested and detained so dan what are we hearing from defense secretary u. S. Defense secretary James Madisons also trying to sort of keep everybody calm what is he said. I think so yeah i mean what theyre what theyre saying is that you know they they want they want to open up communications between these two countries they want to get this situation resolved its a very important that they do theres a very important strategic base nato base in turkey that the u. S. Is using in its fight. Against i so and so its important that this gets resolved the u. S. Chamber of commerce today which hosted this event said u. S. Businesses need to be able to travel to turkey and they were very upset about the way that this has been handled they want to see this resolved quickly within the next couple of weeks if possible ok diana step back live in washington d.

S. Forces iraqs Prime Minister has formally declared victory over iceland the city of her wages he says in the fight now shifts to the border with syria where i saw holes its last stretch of land in iraq about he says he expects to be completely defeated in iraq by the end of the year the governments of iraq turkey and iran have join ranks and announce measures against iraqs Kurdish Regional government as follows last months controversial referendum on kurdish secession from baghdad which an overwhelming number of voters supported it on binding vote was also backed by kurds in neighboring countries Charles Strafford imports from jock in Northern Iraq. These new recruits members of the armed wing of the iranian kurdish policy thats been demanding greater rights because in iran for more than seventy years. Yet the democratic policy of iranian people. Is banned in iran but the Kurdish Regional government of Northern Iraq has helped fund the party and allowed its members to train here since the one nine hundred ninety s. Its fighters have served alongside the iraqi peshmerga helping the iraqi army and the International Coalition in the battle against leisel its ultimate aim is the same as the iraqi kurds a future independent state. The p. K. I. Claims it has thousands of fighters based in the mountains that border iran. As well as military training the recruits its all what the policy say is unknown sectarian politics and state building and it fully supports the referendum that was held in the kurdish region of Northern Iraq on a future session.

T. K. I says according to social media reports Iranian Police arrested around three hundred people came out and supported the kurdish referendum in iraq. But kurds will not destabilize security in the region if the regions government suppression against the kurds that has created the instability when there is an independent kurdish region in iraq it will be a motive for other nations in other parts of the region like the kurds in iran turkey and syria more than ninety two percent of those who vote in the iraqi could be a friend of said yes to few chips a session from iraq.

For me because she. Said. When i think for long. But was opened in the war and later by rebels find that difficult to do. Because most people are the water. Now a father himself victims why deny closure the government effort to help both victims and aggressors find closure to the horrors of the civil war was abundant almost immediately started its been fourteen years since the end of the civil war experts believe that with so many involved the country will still have to deal with the consequences one day. The government agree could have been done im not saying that we didnt do anything weve got a reconciliation but there are still some cost and. If we are pushed a little bit and it may be differently we were some of the results for we still have some. Issues with issues about some communities still. Amongst themselves. And the issues that victims would like to see there. Rather than later for instance many of those by the will still not be able to reach of. Comedy.

And in sports the United States missing out on the two thousand and eighteen world cup in russia more ahead with your. Welcome back lets look at the weather across the americas now north america so in across eastern areas temperatures much of this should be at this time of the year fine across much of the sunshine in dallas now weve lost this area of High Pressure across the great basin which is pushing the santa ana winds in across more western parts of Southern California and that sort of driven those wildfires so hopefully the winds in the situation will improve for the firefighters to tackle those blazes no snow further north into the rockies i mean well at that stage across eastern areas weather conditions jerry not to have wanted to show his promise washington picking up the Miami Florida certainly but again dallas looking dry and fine so lets head down into the caribbean the chance of some lengthy spells of rain across western parts of cuba maybe the bahamas too otherwise usual scattering of showers across the islands because up through the isthmus we still got some fairly heavy rain extending all the way up into mexico and indeed weve seen some really big storms affecting parts of mexico over the last day or so and that is expected to continue as we head on through into friday further towards the south into south america weve still got a frontal system which effects in the far south of brazil for the southeast but to be dry and when its aries and it should be a fine day in santiago chile highs of sixty. And age old part of spanish culture you know what i cant stop thinking about to the bullies in my life others about barack sport and a symbol of Central Government language we shouldnt carry on something the goes against the morals of couple long she saw it as a from the catalan nationalist perspective the believe the present kind of culture and catalonia must fight at this time on aljazeera wild. In a world where a journalism as an industry is changing. Fortunate to be able to continue to expand to continue to have that passenger drive and present the stories in a way that is important to our viewers. Everyone has a story worth hearing. And cover those that are often ignored we dont weigh our coverage towards one particular region or continent thats why i joined aljazeera. Youre watching al jazeera lets recap the top stories this hour police in the kenyan capital used tear gas to disperse opposition protesters calling for changes to the Electoral Commission confusion is mounting over this months repeat president ial vote the opposition candidate violent into will be on the ballot despite his with raul on tuesday. Spains Prime Minister has given catalans leader charles puts them on until monday to say whether hes declared independence the Spanish Government says it will take away the regions political autonomy if it presses ahead with secession. As President Donald Trump past suggested talks on the three country north american trade deal could fail thats after a visit by the canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is optimistic about the negotiations and says the meeting with trump went well. At least twenty one people have been killed and hundreds are missing and wildfires in the u. S. State of california thousands of firefighters are battling twenty two fires in the northern part of the state and there are concerns that several of those fires could merge into one huge front more than thirty five hundred homes and businesses have been destroyed many of them in californias wine country jacob borders lie than windsor california so jacob youre on the evacuation line there are people waiting to see you know whats going to happen to my home when can i go back whats it like there. You know richelle its a really tense scene here you know on the one hand you you look out across the line fields the great fields im seeing here and its a beautiful afternoon california but the tension among people waiting here to try to find out if theyre going to be able to get back to their homes up in these hills is just very very strong we spoke to someone who discovered that their home hand survived someone who escaped burning Mobile Home Park in a town just near here and his comments showed just how haunted people are by their close calls. And when i was driving in out. There was one mobile home that was totally engulfed in flames and i saw that and i saw the glow i saw you know i knew and the wind was just howling and so i knew this is it im going to get out. You know richelle its those kinds of commas that make you realize just how capricious how random the fire is one house will be left standing among ten that burned down and so the feeling here really is one of disaster could strike any of these peoples homes at any time jake are we hearing anything about any containment at all you know there is some sense at this point a few sort of guesses have been made about single digit percentages the idea that some of these fires might be two percent contained three percent contained but thats not the kind of thing you can make a plan on and unfortunately the wind as you can perhaps see around me is beginning to pick back up again the forecast calls for heavier winds tonight and then into tomorrow very heavy winds and thats exactly what firefighters do not want already we have eight thousand firefighters battling blazes like in the hills behind me here and theres really no sense when this could end people are trying to dig in and get ready for what will probably be a very long fight against these flames ok for live for us and whens our california thank you. President is denying allegations he wants to dramatically increase the size of Americas Nuclear weapons arsenal but he has acknowledged there are key Nuclear Policy differences between him and Top Republicans in his cabinet and in Congress White house correspondent kimberly hocket reports on a heavy vocal at an Oval Office Meeting with canadas Prime Minister u. S. President donald trump her hit back at reports he wants to increase u. S. Nuclear capabilities to ten times its present size though its use fake news by n. B. C. Which gives a lot of fake news lately and its frankly disgusting the way the press is able to write whatever they want to write the us president has repeatedly voiced his frustration with the media and almost as frequently an apparent willingness to exercise military might against north koreas missile threat. So a desire to increase Americas Nuclear arsenal wouldnt be surprising but for some like republican senator bob corker trumps words are concerning. Trump is ridiculed corker openly for his statements exposing an escalating rift between the president some republicans in congress and even members of his own cabinet. One of those said to be out of step in favoring diplomacy over force with north korea secretary of state Rex Tillerson who has again seen his efforts undermined i think i have a little bit. Different attitude on north korea than other people might have. And i listen to everybody but ultimately my attitude is the one that matters is that such infighting carried out in public which could involve cabinet discussions over Nuclear Weapons may put the president s policy. Goals in peril president s the only main power they have is to persuade. And once you become that person who is putting yourself in between people on fights as opposed to bring them together its much more difficult to go and ask for something and get something done this latest white house rift comes at a particularly bad time on another of Americas Nuclear fronts the president has until the end of the week to recertify irans compliance with the terms of the twenty fifteen agreement to limit Irans Nuclear program or pull out of the deal kimberly helped get aljazeera washington the libyan coast guard has rescued seventy five my current stranded on a rubber boat miles off the coast one thousand women and four children were among the survivors they were brought to a center in tripoli the near balad a nearby town that is considered one of the largest Human Trafficking points on the mediterranean coast where japans largest steelmakers has lost more than a third of its stock market value after admitting it falsified product data the scandal surrounding coby steel is sparking Quality Control concerns and car train an Aircraft Industries from tokyo lawrence li reports made in japan and now these brands share one more thing in common their customers of kobe steel the company has admitted employees fabricated data about product quality to meet customers specifications the government says its following the case closely and although this was an agreement between private entities we think that kobe still is misconduct was something that has shaken the foundation of business transactions over the ministrys taking the situation very seriously. Kobe steel says two hundred customers in japan and worldwide including manufacturers of trains and planes have received falsely certified materials customers are checking whether they used substandard products and whether there are safety issues or not and yet more revelations mean the scandal could be wider than initially thought kobe steel at mits that the fabricated data affected not only copper and aluminum products but also ion powder which is mainly used in making automobile components kobe also admits that its launched an investigation into a Subsidiary Company which is reported to have shipped material used for making semiconductors to customers without inspecting them the kobe scandal is the latest to hit corporate japan faulty abbots made by takata problems at the largest safety recall in history of the Auto Industry in june a Japanese Company has filed for bankruptcy misandry called one point two million vehicles last week off to admitting unqualified stuff carried out factory inspections. The scandals are seen by many as a further blow to japans reputation for Quality Manufacturing that reputation has allowed Japanese Companies to charge higher prices compact to cheaper compasses such as china not all analysts think the scandal is a disaster for japanese brands japan tends to have a lot of over spec right you know they really if you want to have the las three percent of perfection you have to go to a Japanese Company because theyre the only ones doing that while everybody else you know whether its korea whether its germany whether its india you know operates on a minimum viable standard kobe still said the misconduct involved dozens of employees in as many as four factories and possibly going back ten years the full Financial Impact is still not known but it could be huge if customers request replacements the companys share price has already taken a beating on the stock market Florence Louis aljazeera tokyo south sudan is hosting its first ever International Oil conference but president salva care has been a no show the countrys going for a fuel crisis despite having billions of oil barrels and reserves but no functioning power grid petrol is being sold on the black market at a cost many cannot afford her morgan reports in the capital juba.

Smuggling fuel part of the country and there are people who are actually taking the fuel to the black market so that they make more money and this is the work of the police and the National Security to address it so that they stopped not its those who are actually doing illegal activities by trading with your lawmakers have recently proposed lifting the fuel subsidies but some analysts say if the government does this the Short Term Impact will be damaging could have an impact on low income.
