And inspiration. Stories of three young women challenging the world around them. Aljazeera selects at this time. Welcome back a quick recap of the top stories here on aljazeera the president of the Kurdish Regional government in iraq is stepping down. Was the driving force behind last months referendum to see from iraq the parliament voted to distribute his powers between itself the government and the judicial. Hundreds of thousands of people have rallied in barcelona to call for spain to stay united is the biggest show of force yet from the socalled silent majority who dont support catalonia is independence but. Them out of the rest of such. Government. Has told the Us Television Program Sixty minutes the countries behind the gulf crisis want regime change this country has been living under a blockade for almost five months after four countries cut ties in june he says he never saw it coming. Is an associate professor of middle east studies at the university of oklahoma he says the me is interview shows theres no softening of his countrys position. I think that certainly the emir was speaking directly to the American People going well beyond the government and Rex Tillerson in the secretary of state making the appeal to the American People that this is unjust and so on i think his claims about sovereignty which he made in an earlier in dress over the summer are not new i think what he did show determination and the and the claim that this was about regime change which we wish we all knew from the very beginning i think also is a toughening stance as it were all of us knew from the very beginning that the saudis and the emirates is behind these new shipments would have loved to bring about regime change and in fact there might have been a military possibility in the first couple of days and they also miscalculated thinking that the cuts or e people would somehow rebel against their government after the ending of formal relations and so on none of that happened so this was about regime change but see here the emir say that it was a bit startling so i think this was a serious attempt to address the American People and also the kind of educated classes and so on and i think its also important to point out that in addition to his determination and his top stance he did offer a leaf or a possibility as you mention with this claim that he said its said twice in the interview that hes willing to go ten thousand miles if they are willing to come one meter so in addition to determination there was also a claim that we are that qatar is moderate and reasonable and willing to find a reasonable solution to this crisis the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency says iran is complying with the twenty fifty nuclear deal i am so should everyone else mama was visiting iran for the First Time Since the us president told congress it wasnt complying with the agreement saying bizarre the reports from tehran. What would have been a routine visit by the head of the International Atomic Energy Agency has taken on added significance it isnt gentleman. I am very happy. Yukiya amano put a positive face on proceedings but the stakes are high its his first trip since President Donald Trump told the u. S. Congress iran is not complying with the terms of the nuclear deal or the joint comprehensive plan of action a claim a minor made clear is not true as of today i can state that you can get a commitment it commitments made by iran and the way being implemented and the message that seemed tailor made for the u. S. President the most important thing is to be optional. I have been always. I think i became the director general of the day sometimes i had to report the bad news but i also reported good news. It is very important to stick to that role and i will continue to do so for irans leaders among those visit was an opportunity to air their grievances. So far eight times a day has the least reported that state iran has met its commitments fully and addressing u. S. Demands to inspect nonnuclear military facilities in iran journalists were told even talking about it was a waste of time many. Military bases are not part of the deal so its useless to talk about them the white house has said irans development of a Missile Program is a threat to Regional Security and violates the spirit of the nuclear deal in a speech to parliament before meeting the i. A. E. A. Chief irans president Hassan Rouhani restated his countrys commitment to its own defense. You know that we have built our building and will continue to build missiles and this doesnt violate International Law or the International Resolution the pressure to keep the peace is now on european shoulders there are a lot of problems but still iran thinks that. Having the deal is better than being out of the deal and if the europeans and the International Community. Sticks to the deal iranians will stick to that the in as much as i was into iran doing his job this time his visit became a way of sending a message to any american officials that might be watching using the nuclear deal to pressure iran were not. Just here to her. Power company says a three hundred Million Dollar deal to restore electricity to the island was not illegal even though its being scrapped the contract between Whitefish Energy holdings and the bankrupt our utility was cancelled because there was no Competitive Bidding about seventy five percent of homes and businesses in the u. S. Territory still without electricity after Hurricane Maria swept through last month. Now criminal gangs in mexico are recruiting children to smuggle undocumented migrants into the u. S. Aljazeera has obtained rare access to some of the children acting as guides in Ciudad Juarez just across the border from texas home and reports. That train is the United States so close to see that what is mexico you can almost reach out touch it. The dream of many is to get to the other side and thats where mexican cartels have scented an opportunity smuggling across those without visas for a price. Is to do that theyre increasingly relying on miners as people smugglers they call them towards. This fourteen year old boy is one of them like others we talked to two hundred dollars for every mexican he takes across five hundred percent true americans with the money i can do many things buy clothes food and you do many things for my family. The cartels recruit put your toes in the poorer parts of what is they could no more in a single night than their parents do in four months working in the citys buddha factories. Government officials told us that strong young people into the business along the u. S. Mexico divide you might be surprised to know that only thirty percent of the Us Mexico Border is covered by any sort of fence and its where that ends that the young guides try to get their kites across the United States. For your return still face the desert with its snakes biting cold and the waiting u. S. Border patrol i think we had close to close to seventy people that were identified as human are smugglers in two thousand and six in twenty sixteen we had almost one hundred fifty people identified as being human are human smugglers the problem for the u. S. Is that its extremely hard to prosecute minors and thats exactly why the cartels are using them they can run the routes again and again if theyre caught it usually just means a ride back to mexico. Theyre handed over to this Government Center where a small but dedicated team gives them classes while they wait for parents to pick them up trying to encourage them to go back to school and in time to that director here burton saul is worries if they dont theyll only get more tangled up in the cartels your money would ask if they could finish getting into arms trafficking kidnapping he says. After being caught in his First Crossing his seventeen year old is one of those who decided to begin with obamas remarks i got scared i thought something would happen to me he told us but like many of what is young his options are limited and the prospect of a nights work rewarded with hundreds of dollars is a temptation whatever age you are john homan now does it or see it out.

Rick shut out. To create. And to bring back. Like many rewilding such as this pull believes this would help restore the balance of nature and keep the populations of red deer in check which reached destructively high numbers now its not just keystone species like wolves and bears that are in the frame much less controversial but just as important is the action being taken over Red Squirrels here in scotland. The red squirrel has been squeezed out of much of the British Isles by its great counterpart scotland is one of the last stronghold but even here its under threat within scotland as the situation pretty much the whole of the northwest doesnt have any Red Squirrels and so thats saying that this project to reintroduce them to the northwest and recently catch the squirrels in the morning do a Health Inspection take them across and then release them in specially built nest boxes its a project that engages the local Community College murdoch works on a nearby state and keeps an eye on the new arrivals i think its a wonderful idea and i do. This is done in several places new very successfully undiscoverable braid creative released them. Its set up a little population to see from the goodies and. Should be. Back at al adel Red Squirrels have already made a comeback theres also a focus on wild cats the Breeding Program is being attempted to help restore a National Population which is dwindled to dangerously low levels all in all the concept of rewilding is one which if properly managed can help species of all sorts thrive and also perhaps help people connect with nature the way it once was.
