Is prepared to use military force against north korea opens the door for talks to. The Vice President has consistently. And persistently. Exhibited traits. Of disloyalty. Zimbabwes president fires his number two the latest twist in a succession battle. From ancient manuscripts to lego bricks carter unveils the future of libraries borrowing the best from the past. Now saudi arabias crown Prince Mohammed bin salomon is accusing iran of what could be an act of war by supplying Houthi Rebels in yemen with a missile that was fired at riyadh its the latest Development Amid escalating tension in the region Saudi Air Defense forces intercepted the Ballistic Missile on saturday although the who the rebels claimed responsibility saudi leaders say the weapons were supplied by iran iran back to thieves are warning that saudi and u. S. Airports are within firing range and could be the next targets saudi arabia is also taking aim at lebanon accusing its government of declaring war against the riyadh it says acts of aggression have been committed by the lebanon based Group Hezbollah which is backed by iran lebanons Prime Minister sadly how do we who resigned on saturday was in the United Arab Emirates for talks hes now reportedly heading back to saudi arabia so holder has more from beirut. Some analysts are even saying that to these statements by saudi officials a number of saudi officials are unprecedented and theyre analyzing this as a declaration of war against eleven on telling levanon lebanese leaders need to choose between peace or terror in other words telling them not to cooperate or deal with hezbollah now hezbollah of course is a party that has an armed wing its arms has always been a source of contention in lebanon its forces are fighting alongside the syrian president Bashar Al Assad but hezbollah is also a Political Party it has members in government it has members in parliament it has allies it has supporters here so telling lebanese leaders to choose between a terror and and peace really so people are concerned and some statements are even saying there are those who will stop hezbollah and make them return to the caves of southern lebanon so very tough rhetoric in fact threatening lebanon but not saying or stopping short of saying what action they are going to take it is clear that saudi arabia is not going to accept hezbollah in the government but what else are they going to ask for this crisis to be resolved are they going to ask for hezbollahs arms to be disarmed president to be disarmed that is definitely not going to happen and hezbollah is not going to accept that. Their job is a visiting fellow at the Brookings Doha Center hes also an associate at the Harvard Kennedy school iran project if you like he joins us here at the studios good to have you with us and so you look at the saudi rhetoric a direct military aggression they say an act of war is iran deliberately escalating the conflict by helping them to target riyadh as the narrative from saudi arabia goes and first of all we dont know if you know how much iran was involved and to do with iraq could miss on a tank on riyadh and secondly i think the main story is the quest for consultation of power of moment been sold in saudi arabia for now the iranian reactions have been quite moderate not. Interested in escalation the next phase of this will be a scenario in which well regularly see the target as theyre saying saudi and even u. A. E. Airports in the future i mean that would be a bit of a game changer for this conflict wouldnt it actually there was this headline by irans hard line newspaper. And the next target of two who things would be debate but this hard line was heavily criticized inside iran there was the Media Monitoring institution that condemned it and the government even was condemned but nevertheless you know as an analyst you think that this will happen. If i dont think that this will happen although i mean it is premature to say anything clearly because there are global and regional rivalries that are playing out right now indeed and talking about those regional rivalries why saudi arabia regarding lebanon as a government at war with saudi arabia i mean is that a sign of the saudi perspective that theyve got hezbollah simply has too much influence in the government in the country right now. I mean there are harsh words coming from saudi arabia against hezbollah are on the other hand but what might be more certain as other developments going on in the region is that israel as fans planning a war in lebanon against hezbollah so this is and there is a coordination obviously between the saudi an israeli sides. So what do you do do you think well see a situation which the saudis are preparing for a further marginalization or an attempt to marginalize i should say hezbollah in lebanon and perhaps push them out of the government and so on i mean there was certainly interested in doing that but the political leaders also unsure about the whereabouts of how do you his resignation according to iranian sources this has something to do with the yemeni issue because one day prior to having to his resignation he met with the supreme iranian supreme leaders chief Foreign Policy adviser advisor. And according to sources close to him as reported by iranian media harry went there and. Delivered a saudi message that iran should stop its support for the who thiis which iran denied because of that this is the iranian reading of it. Was forced by the saudis to step down the next day although theres a lot of strong rhetoric going on from the saudis right now when you look at the regional balance of power is it really more iran which is the more successful in pushing its influence in the region and theres clearly no doubt the. Recently over the past few months and even years iran has had the upper hand in the region geopolitics and now there is a new drive by the saudis in coordination with some circles in washington to create a containment policy views of iran and also the saudi working though does if you look at iraq you look at yemen and i mean the saudi influence seems to be the problem is that the anti iran forces do not have a Clear Strategy there are signs that there is a saudi iraqi political push man this this will be beneficial to iraq because it can diversify its relations between saudi arabia and iran but we are what were going to see is an intensification of the iranian saudi had to monica arrive in the region and this is for sure but by proxy wars not by direct action. Cannot be a good thing for the region all right thanks so much for coming in thanks for your thoughts on that we mere of course has written a letter to parliament calling for the unity of the country in the face of current tension in the region the government resigned last week to get more now from the touch of a name in kuwait city you will get into domestic issues and know theres a lot going there as we hinted at in the intro natasha first of all you know i was just talking a moment ago with our analyst here in the studio and im wondering whether it is beginning to feel some of those some of that tension from the regional fallout there. In the sort of messaging were getting from quite a leadership. Well no doubt the it is these have been a frenetic few days and the impact is reverberating across the region you could also look at the emirs message as a call meaning influence amidst the didnt as you said hes calling for National Unity denouncing hatred and warning that not only are these dangerous times in the gulf and the region but here at home hes asking members of parliament to help fortify the country and support whatever security measures might be implemented to protect kuwait when the moment we are fully aware of the threats around us and we are fully aware of our geographic location and the dangerous situation in the region i am sure that the kuwaiti people are aware and fully supportive of our Political Leadership backing our security agencies and value the National Unity. The emirs call for unity is in stark contrast c. M. E. To the fiery rhetoric weve been hearing from saudi arabia since saturday as you know thats when a Ballistic Missile was fired into their country from the who these in yemen as we know saudi is leading a Coalition Fighting the who these in the war in yemen and it also comes at a time when the Gulf Cooperation Council crisis is in its fifth month you recall that saudi arabia the u. A. E. And two other countries have imposed a blockade against qatar accusing it of enabling terrorism qatar of course denies that and says what this is really about is a threat to its sovereignty but kuwait has stepped in as it did in two thousand and fourteen to try to mediate an end to the crisis President Trump has invited all the parties to camp david to talk qatars emir of course has said that he is ready and willing he wants to put an end to this crisis but things appear to be at a stalemate as far as thats concerned and the domestic through the whole situation that has been the most stable either lately has it. You know as you mentioned c. M. E. On october thirtieth the Prime Minister in the government resigned due to concerns about possible corruption in some of the ministries here this is the second government shakeup so far this year in kuwait there was one in february now the Prime Minister has been tasked with forming a new government theres no timeline as to how quickly that will happen but the emir is message today might also be a signal to the parliament that this cannot be a protracted crisis especially at such an uncertain time thanks so much untouchable named. Donald trump says the u. S. And its allies are prepared to use military action against north korea but hes open to negotiations to end its Nuclear Weapons program trumpeting meetings out of koreas leader in seoul where he said the two men were on the same page on north korea hes on the second leg of his maiden tour of asia tony but he joins us now from seoul so how some of the messaging going down there in salt. Well i think its going according to plan and we did have some concerns before President Trump came here that perhaps his stand on north korea and the stand of president moon of the south Korean Leader a bit different but theyve come together they are on the same page at least publicly and the visit is going quite well i think President Trump has come out with some Strong Language he said that north korea was a worldwide threat that required worldwide action but he was also a little bit more measured in what he had to say compared to his earlier rhetoric in august a fire and fury speech and so forth he said that should come to the negotiating table they should make a deal and he said there were some progress along those lines but he didnt elaborate so thats pretty good also hes quite happy because he says hes got the south koreans to a gripe agreed to by billions of dollars worth of military weapons and equipment so for him his first day here which was which was part potentially a bit tentative because of the possible ramifications of some response from north korea has gone quite well as we saw today. Donald trump arriving in south korea on the second and perhaps most delicate leg of his asia tour it brought him to within forty eight kilometers of the border with north korea following his war of words with its leader kim jong un there were fears President Trumps presence would provoke some sort of response he described north korea as a worldwide threat that requires worldwide action but his tone was more measured than in the past and he called for p. R. Nyang to come to the negotiating table he said all of the little tools will be used short of military action but he also stressed americas military capability. All nations must implement Un Security Council regulations and cease trade and business entirely with north korea it is unacceptable that nations would help to arm and finance this increasingly dangerous regime as we Work Together to resolve this problem using all available tools short of military action. The United States stands prepared to defend itself and its allies using the full range of our unmatched military capabilities if need be south korean president moon jay in said the time was too early to talk to the north but promised a Bright Future if it gave up its nuclear and missile programs. Of the United States has strong sanctions on north korea and i think it will have an effective impact and with china joining the United States it will bring force to the sanctions on north korea with all these International Diplomatic policies i think when there are changes being made it will bring north korea back to the negotiating table trump is the first u. S. President in twenty five years to be treated to a state visit with the first since Ronald Reagan not to visit the Demilitarized Zone the border with north korea instead he went by helicopter to count home for his the largest u. S. Base in south korea he later spoke of the close relationship between the two countries but all that weve built in the decades since our soldiers sacrifice side by side in the struggle for freedom our alliances more important than ever to peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and across the in the pacific region. Thousands of pro Trump Supporters lined the streets of seoul all those who oppose the u. S. President were kept corralled behind police buses south koreas liberal government is pulling out all the stops to make this visit a success they know they can afford to alienate president. States. Depends on a Good Relationship have a joint News Conference trump announced that south korea wants to buy billions of dollars worth of military equipment from the u. S. Which would help offset the trade deficit between the two countries and a five year old Free Trade Agreement will be renegotiated trampin. First lady milan you were greeted by children and a korean pop star at the blue house and later had whats known as a friendship walk through the gardens with president moon and his wife the day ended with a defiant threat from north korea reaffirming its resolve to strengthen its Nuclear Power rhetoric but no action so far so good the transfer stayed south korea. And then i wondering how these sort of message of resetting trade relations between the u. S. And its asian allies is also going down. I think people realize theyre very pragmatic here that they realize that was the way things were heading i think things have been pretty much agreed before President Trump and come because the announcement came fairly quickly into the start of his visit. Japan is now its trade for security seems to be the issue because it a very strong position and basically he promised in his preelection campaign that he was going to be jobs and money back to america thats what hes doing and hes picking two fairly easy targets in japan and south korea both of which need the United States for its defense big debates going on at the moment that both these countries should take more of a role in their own defenses especially in japan so President Trump has sold a lot of weapons hes made some money hes reduce the trade deficit which will hit him was very important and for the people the domestic audience back in the United States that very much is a result for him i think now he goes on to china on wednesday and he will be seeking to get assurances from the chinese that they will do more to try and get a resolution to the north korean crisis and also hell be looking to russia so theres still lots of work to be done but it seems that today in seoul President Trump has been quite happy with the way things have gone right Tony Berkeley there thanks so much. Claymore still ahead on the news. We speak to those living in a disputed area in Northern Iraq which continues to be a source of tension between the kurds and the baghdad government.

The United Nations has called for an end to what it says is a catastrophic blockade on yemen fuel prices increased by over sixty percent and cooking gas prices doubled all of that after saudi arabia cut all aid access to the country the un says its looking at whether the closure constitutes unlawful collective punishment diplomatic editor jane space has more. The humanitarian situation in yemen is one of the grey vista in the world its so bad a child under the age of five dies in the country every ten minutes from causes that should be preventable twenty Million People out of a population estimated at twenty seven million are in need of humanitarian assistance but it appears for now all International Aid is being cut saudi arabia has announced its completely blockading the country cutting all air sea and land links its reaction to a missile fired towards riyadh by the who these who control a large part of yemen including the capital sanaa to u. N. Flights into the country have already been blocked and were trying to see whether we can get our normal access restored and were hopeful that we will be able to continue our normal operations we once more. Underscore to all parties the need for regular humanitarian access to all parts of yemen that are in need when the u. N. Says its hopeful its aid can soon resume thats only based on the fact that the saudis current blockade is said to be temporary when you look at the words the u. N. Is using its clear theyre treading carefully the reality is that saudi arabia has been making restrictions on the aid medicine and food allowed into yemen for years after facing turmoil conflict and an ongoing cholera epidemic the conditions in yemen can only be described as dire and they look set to worsen even further jamesburg jazeera at the United Nations. As an independent freelance Yemeni Journalist and founder and editor in chief of some out review the magazine she joins us now from washington d. C. Good to have you with us its already a desperate humanitarian situation by all accounts in yemen how do you think that if this closing of all of yemens airports and seaports as we know it goes into some long term situation all that mean for the country this means that sentence to all yemenis i think even before this to look at yemen where its also in another almost. You know. Corner a lot of entries put it all when one year and not me reading like extremely impossible and packed it all aspects of life so this you know the seventys decision with the talk and locate will definitely kill on yemen it used to be a small death put millions and young and poor but now it will pass that. I say that before and i need to repeat it again. I think. It is and you know that makes its people really feel and more i think makes them react realize how humans. Nothing and its really difficult to imagine what a complete. Lie under such a blockade and how the word three d. Printing to acknowledge that the situation is beyond tragedy its such a shame on you but dont. You think that feeling of abandonment is a whole alleviated by the sort of signs or rumblings we had in the u. N. Lately towards an investigation or encounter ability process. You mean you tired of just words they need an action even though there are a lot of statements were you can see and so want but there is nothing on reality or on the ground that has changed except that life has become even worse and harsher. You know beside the locate its been also all but one yet since the Civil Servants millions of Civil Servants they havent been paid their salaries and they lack the you know the pressure pressures power to you know keep up with that the skyrocketing prices so while only on on the ground life is just as difficult and harsh and statements havent been translated into concrete action on the ground before and also thanks so much Zimbabwes PresidentRobert Mugabe has fired one of his two deputies imus and them on guard well was seen as one of the leading contenders to become his successor mugabes wife grace now appears to be the front runner ninety three year old mugabe has been president for almost forty years. Is live for us in so hes long been the number two has long been an ally of the president was the official reasoning for why hes being let go now. People are waiting for him to react in some way shape or form on the streets of the capital harare is business as usual it was no secret people knew that prism of god and his wife grace had fallen out with him as a man and god i was surprised a lot of people is how soon how quickly he was fired as the Vice President the papers are trying to explain to us about what happened the state run papers saying that he was sacked because one of the reasons is because he was disloyal the private papers are looking ahead so to speak talking about a purge that may be coming already in some of the provinces some senior officials are lying to him isnt and gaza has been sacked from some of their roles in the provinces its not the first time that the president has sat one of his deputies in twenty fourteen he fired joyously juden who was the Vice President at that time she since left the party and formed her own Opposition Party as my words are used to thats what shocked them is that people speculated that it was the man and i was powerful he had the army behind and had a lot of support for the environment here people didnt think that we would dare by him now that he has people are waiting to see what minute i was next move is going to be. This being seen as all part of a succession battle at the end of the day. Absolutely its all about succession mugabes ninety three years old zimbabweans even those who are still afraid to openly talk about it are thinking about islam by way after mugabe when hes gone who is going to succeed him already in some of the provinces the endorsing grace mugabe as Vice President is on the p.

She was just a child the neighbors heard her begging for her life she was saying please dont shoot me im pregnant please just let me leave the house i saw her body at the morgue her eyes were open i couldnt recognise her across the country these have become familiar scenes children are killed in Police Operations last year the government says it will make those was possible accountable but not a single conviction has been made the Philippine Government says president would be good to attend to spite against crime is being effective as a result the number of what they call index crimes such as kidnapping and theft have all gone down but home asides continue to rise and the government is unable to explain why according to the commission and human rights that is because deaths related to the war on drugs and those killed in Police Operations have been classified as either homicide cases or deaths under investigation thus the government has been disputing claims that extra judicial killings committed by the state have surpassed the ten thousand mark. Government is really in the naive. About the. Human rights crisis that is currently.

Still to come on aljazeera find out why International Football friendlies may become a thing of the pauls. Welcome back now World Leaders and scientists are meeting in germany for the annual u. N. Climate change Conference Many parts of the world are feeling the effects of rising sea levels extreme weather and floods cities are looking for ways to strengthen their defenses and theyre turning to the netherlands for answers florence italy reports from rotterdam. A city which at its lowest lies six meters below sea level has for centuries had to work out how to keep the people dry if you didnt know how to do it nowadays you wouldnt even notice the wall at the end of the bridge is actually a levee against flooding the road raised above the level of the houses to keep the water from the other side the spaces they used as basketball courts and open air theatres but theyre also huge basins to capture rainwater the thing they figured out is how to make flood defenses work for cities we must add quality to the city. And that can be done in an integrated ways so you can choose for a concrete wall but you also can choose for. A landscape in the shape of a levy with on top of it and thats thats an end in quality but its also creating more flexibility. The netherlands was forced to address is geographic weakness in the one nine hundred fifty three when a huge storm pushed the north sea inland nearly two thousand people died they realized they had to do something enormous to protect the entire seaboard this giant barrier is the first line of defense for rotterdam its like the dutch a full forty years after the great flood of nine hundred fifty three to complete the infrastructure necessary to keep the north sea out of the netherlands and of course river in rotterdam every day some of the projects are going on of course its all underpinned by a belief that you have to work with the water rather than against it and of course the political will to make it happen.
