Hello there im Julie Mcdonald this is the news hour live from london coming up in the next sixty minutes the Un Security Council meets to tackle the grim business of people trafficking as evidence mimes the trade is booming. Carefully chosen words pope francis avoids mentioning the residents of crisis during a key address in the last days you know this isnt. For. Him. And i repeat. All done and let me approach it were a kenyatta promises to unite kenya as hes sworn in for a second term as president. But in time for that coin the cryptocurrency sir just passed the ten thousand dollar mark for the first terrace and in peru well hear what motivates them to push their bodies to the absolute limit. Of their warm welcome to the news hour the u. N. Security council is holding a briefing on the libyan slavery crisis evidence has emerged that hundreds of people have been optioned in modern day slave markets in libya for as little as four hundred dollars maybe as the main transit hub for refugees and migrants attempting to reach Southern Europe by sea well have the very latest from the u. N. In a moment but first this report from burnetts smith. This is not where these migrants want to be heading back to the african continent thanks to a from the Italian Government to reinforce libyas coast guard its helped cut the number of migrants arriving in italy two hundred twenty two thousand in the last three months its the lowest total for four years but people Trafficking Networks in libya continue to flourish because of government chaos as rival groups battle for power. These are repatriated to the ivory coast from libya so they risk being sold into slavery oh its not forget about this all africans over there in libya they sell men even fifteen year old libyans are there in a car theyre armed the coming kidnap you and the so youve heard seventy to one hundred fifty dollars and then others will resell you i think theyre going to leave the ship as soon as you arrive in libya the first thing that happens is that you are taken away and sold our Black Brothers from west africa wherever you are from a million a cynical ease or any other nationality from the west even ibori and you are sold and for what seven hundred dollars but these moderates will tell you that life is so hard in their home country that its worth almost any risk to make a new start in europe now with the advent of the smartphone and with facebook and others pushing into africa a youngster can meet a smuggler in two seconds on the phone now that nothing is being done to challenge that they think theyre following a dream to europe they end up in the mall in the grip of these repay shoes smuggler despite increased patrols the u. N. Says more than one hundred sixty thousand people have made it across the mediterranean to york this year about three thousand have drowned on Bernard Smith aljazeera when i can is that the u. N. Headquarters is there mike so in a country like every which is essentially a failed state what power does the u. N. Have to help my. Well this is exactly what the u. N. Security council has been discussing and not coming up with any concrete measures at this particular point this emergency session was called by france which says that every effort must be taken to try and address of this massive problem of slavery within libya in particular the issue of sanctions was raised against individuals and entities also said the french ambassador before the meeting perhaps using the International Criminal court in short he said the councils got to explore every form of International Law in a way of dealing with this particular problem but as it is the Security Council not coming up with any immediate measures this could take days weeks even months before it comes up with some concrete way to address this ongoing crisis but whats very clear as well is that the issue of Human Trafficking is a consequence of not just the failed state of libya but also of image of migration of forced migration throughout the continent remember that some ninety percent of those fleeing crises in the rest of the continent actually pass through libya on their way to seek some form of safety i can with their lives from the end mike. See us if theres a Vice President i think were actually going to be able to go now to the Libyan National Transitional Council marty rabbies a former advisor to them and friend of the Libyan Human Rights Commission he joins me now live from urban california omar very warm welcome to the Program First of all can i gauge your reaction to the accusations of Human Trafficking on this scale in libya. Turby not to robbie but at any rate this is being going on for quite some time even the old regime the dictatorship struggled with what they called the five. Things that were going on. Human trafficking. Weapon trafficking. Used to be roaming around now isis roaming around and then you also have drug trafficking. There is corruption within the mediterranean european system as well not many people are pointing to that at this point with then they tie in infrastructure there as well and also is a country in in the mediterranean that no one ever points or pays any attention to the Little Island of malta there are from what i understand from that time frame like two thousand and six or so there were some Human Trafficking lord that were based in malta that made substantial amount of money trafficking people libya like many countries the border is a very porous very open its going to be extremely hard to control the borders what is really needed is. Work to institute a viable government in libya not a failed state the system in libya the government the libya is helpless libya doesnt even have any diplomatic corps in europe or in the western world that can actually reach out effectively if you have a home i said in my the nice and then that is. How does the u. N. Or any other International Body or country go up by shoring up a proper viable government in libya. The u. N. Has has made several mistakes in the past twenty four months i think and they can do a Coalition Government in tripoli and do away with the elected body in tobruk so what needs to be done it may take six months it may take twelve months but we have to build a system governing system in libya that we can trust ok many of european nations italian france the u. K. And then you go to the United States they do not want to put any equipment on the ground because they dont trust havent these equipment are weapons or machinery in the hands that may or fall on the wrong hands so were suffering because of that so there has to be a system to have a Security System border Security Systems in place. That can function so everybody looks at this and says how do we do this how do we make it work without havent a functioning democratic democratic is a is not the word these days a functioning government in libya its going to be very hard to institute anything the border is a very wide open so its going to take a lot of money its going to take a lot of effort and it just cant be superficial the Security Council has to raise the issue of borders in libya much higher because its going to cause many more people twenty two thousand and thats still a substantial number of people coming across the border to italy and theres going to be many more that all are on to some new guys later on what we can just why are we hearing about this not you know we obviously from your perspective and from many others that weve spoken to over the years here on aljazeera weve known that this slave trading if we can call it that is happening so why do you think this is come to the fore now and will it make any difference that at the moment its i was there circulating on the international media. Its been happening and its been there if its just because c. N. N. Picked it up two weeks ago it doesnt mean it hasnt been going on its been going on for quite some time even the dictatorship. Regime was not able to deal with it effectively and there were some systems that were supposed to go into place in fact there were substantial payments paid to large european and american firms that are in the security business in excess of a quarter billion dollars that didnt go anywhere they were frozen that whitman still sits in tripoli in some places so theres gotta be a much more effective way Going Forward libya is right in the center of the Mediterranean Sea and its a very important nation there whether you like it or not something has got to be done that stupid government in tripoli doesnt know what theyre doing and you know i want to point something very important i would hear libya does not have effective contact with the European Community you have embassador in holland that doesnt know even how to speak english you have one in italy doesnt speak italian you have one in london has no contact with the British Government these idiots sit in their embassies and do no effective contact with the European Community or the european government you have a charge an affair in washington that doesnt have any hardly any contact with the u. S. Government so theres got to be got to be some kind of an overhaul of the foreign contacts system from libya on to that in the world so that we can get some affective work in handling libyans borders it is not going to be easy its going to take a lot of money is going to take a lot of effort and only when it gets really bad is when this you cure it comes is going to say were going to step in and do something about it its going to take is going to take us the again to take a lot of money its going to take surveillance by you know by airplanes but on the ground by sea this is a very large nation the third its the size of the one third of the united. So its going to require a lot of work omars hurdler joining me for we do it early in convenes in california omar were going to have to leave it there and you so much for joining me omar turby there former adviser walk into the Libyan National Transitional Council the founder of the Libyan Human Rights Commission thank you very much for joining me sir u. S. Vice president mike pence says President Trump is actively considering when im hired to move the u. S. Embassy in israel from tel of if to jerusalem a controversial move is something trump has previously valued that he would to complete how could joins us live from the white house hi there kimberly so what exactly then is pence been saying. Well certainly this is caught many by surprise given the fact that in june donald trump signed a waiver effectively postponing that pledge that he made on the campaign trail to move the u. S. Embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem certainly this is significant because the statements the suggesting the possible not signing of the waiver by the president in the future is significant given the fact that Vice President mike pence made these comments on the anniversary of the seventy years since that u. N. Vote creating the jewish state and anniversary that was marked in new york city and while for the past twenty Years Congress and successive administrations have expressed a willingness to move our embassy. As we speak President Donald Trump is actively considering when and how to move the American Embassy and israel from telling the. Cameras. So we can really why is he saying all of this now. Well because there is an imminent deadline julie of early december for the president to sign that waiver once again you heard the Vice President there talking about how for twenty years this is something that has been done in the u. S. Congress will in one thousand nine hundred ninety five is the u. S. Congress that effectively mandated through law that that embassy should be moved to jerusalem but all of the president s since then have signed this waiver citing National Security as a reason for not making that move but now we have the president up against this deadline of early december and whether or not to sign the waiver that has been the tradition and also has really been an International Consensus for some seventy years that jerusalem is an International City so now there is the signaling by the trumpet ministration perhaps that waiver will not be signed certainly this is going to cause concern not just for some in the United States but of course also the palestinian position has always been that any move of the u. S. Embassy to jerusalem would be a violation of International Law and also could set off unrest not just in the occupied palestinian territories but also in the wider arab World Committee out of their life in the White House Committee thank you pope francis says voided mention of man was written jim is the minority as he appeared alongside the countrys leader aung sun suu chief the paul potts touched on the wreckage of crisis but he never directly named the ethnic group as widely expected he insisted me and mark should respect the rights of all ethnicities scott hyde the reports. Pope francis traveled to the capital in a poor tuesday on a day trip for me and dan to meet on song suchi she introduced the pope after their closed door meeting of the many challenges that our government has been facing the situation in the rakhine has most strongly captured the attention of the world. Touching on the issue that many are waiting to be brought up the plight of the rangers. While not calling them by name though he has before he alluded to their plight a growing number of nations and International Bodies are calling ethnic cleansing. The future me and my must be peace a peace based on respect for the dignity and rights of each member of society respect for each ethnic group and decided to take respect for the rule of law and respect for the democratic order that enables each individual and every group next clue did to offer its legitimate contribution to the common good. Earlier in the day here the pope started his first full day in myanmar by conducting an interfaith meeting with buddhist christian hindu jewish and muslim representatives. When represented muslims he was on the Rakhine Commission led by the former head of the United Nations kofi anon they provided recommendations on the real hinge a crisis like i didnt use the word i didnt mention about the prices but i did see there. Is a multiracial multireligious literalistic society where diversity and unity prevails but recently religion has been hijacked and it has been politicised the Roman Catholic leader is due to hold mass in a stadium and gone on wednesday it will be the first time to speak to the tens of thousands of christians whove traveled from all over me and mar to see its got aljazeera. Well theres much more to come here on the news hour a guilty plea from a turkish gold trader accused of trying to evade u. S. Sanctions against iran what it means for the case against his codefendant plus. John allen the greek island where more than two and a half years after the great influx of refugees to europe began people are still making this perilous street crossing from turkey every day. And its been a year since a plane crash killed most of the chappaqua and say team will look back at how the brazilian built itself in sport with. Its hard cash gold trader of evading u. S. Sanctions on iran has been guilty and is set to testify against his codefendants are banking official named mehmet hakan a tele well that trial underway in new york has been slammed by turkey as being politically motivated lets go live to christensen and. It is in new york and so who is this man on trial kristen and why are tar kish officials quite so upset. So the man on trial is mad how can a tele and he was the deputy general manager of the bank known as hall bank which is primarily owned by the turkish government and u. S. Prosecutors say he is the person responsible for orchestrating this scheme that allowed turkey to launder billions of dollars for iran iran of course being under u. S. Sanctions that prevent them and prevent really any company doing business with iran from using you as banks furthermore u. S. Prosecutors say that this scheme took place with the knowledge of government officials in turkey at the highest level who are paid billions of dollars in bribes for this scheme to go forward now this of course has greatly upset the turkish government turkish government officials have accused the the trial of being politically motivated an attempt to impose sanctions on churchy theyve even gone so far as blaming for to love glenn the exiled muslim cleric who lives in the u. S. State of pennsylvania for being behind these charges in an attempt to destabilize the government of course glenn has been accused of orchestrating a coup against turkey in the last year. And what kind of evidence is there against him. Government prosecutors listed a whole raft of evidence that they plan to present from Financial Transactions records of those texts emails wiretap conversations with the defendant but their star witness in this case is actually a man who was supposed to be the lead defendant a man by the name of reza robb whos this flashy gold trader prosecutors describe him as the front man for this operation who set up Shell Companies in iran to sell gold and later food as a way of evading these sanctions they say he pledged economic jihad to the government of iran in two to fulfill this scheme and got very very rich in the process hes going to be very important to the trial moving forward and wants are a tell us lawyers then saying in his defense. Well they say theres absolutely no evidence that attila took any bribes that hes a lifelong government servant and that it was actually his boss a man by the name of so lehmann osla who was really pulling the strings at the bank and took massive bribes in order to cover up what was going on and as far as reza zahra is concerned they describe him as a master dealmaker they say that hes going to say absolutely anything that the government wants them to wants him to in order to stay out of jail and so he cant be trusted thats their argument because since the me there live from new york chris and thank you.

U. K. Foreign secretary has met with the Foreign Ministers of saudi arabia the u. A. E. And oman in london as part of efforts to find a peaceful solution to the war in yemen speaking ahead of the meeting Boris Johnson said his government wanted to push for the full we opening of ports within yemen the Saudi Led Coalition mind to the sea and air blockade already this month to prevent supplies reaching hooty rebels hope penance and this update. No defining breakthrough moment from these talks this forum thats been held here in london but an indication from the u. K. Of the urgency of the matter and recognition according to the foreign and Commonwealth Office at least from the saudis the u. A. E. Oman and the u. S. And of course the u. N. About the humanitarian plight being faced by the yemeni civilians three million of whom have been displaced tens of thousands of whom have been killed over the past three years and this blockade of the past two and a half weeks causing real genuine hardship now although the blockade is being eased the trickle of humanitarian supplies which youve been able to get into yemen is hardly enough to feed the starving thousands of the those affected by cholera as well and aid agencies are extremely worried about the deteriorating situation there the Foreign Office minister from the u. K. Has spoken in the wake of the meeting to say that the saudis understand the urgency of delivering humanitarian aid but at the same time they also want to have security from the kind of missiles that we saw fired from the hutu rebels that said there is a recognition of the great urgency although resolving the situation will be dictated by events on the ground and that includes the delivery of humanitarian aid as well as preventing any further rocket attacks and they have a small time in western germany who was attacked with a knife says the incident was politically motivated andrus whole stein was attacked on monday at a kebab shop and escaped with only a small cut after the shock almost came to his a hole same as known for his liberal my good policy under his leadership the town of altima has taken a more refugees than it is required to. But because. He said you let me die of thirst and you bring two hundred refugees to altoona and then he stood behind me with the knife against my throat i grabbed it and pushed it away which wasnt one hundred percent successful since i still got a small cut they had to be closed up i was very lucky that the two people running the combat shop helped me despite the risk that they might also be injured up to two hundred refugees a day are arriving at the main government run camp on the greek island of les boss its struggling to cope with the influx and harsh winter conditions are fast approaching still. There is little prospect of them travelling further. For more than two and a half years people have been making the perilous journey across the water from turkey many have lost their lives trying to reach the safety of europes shores and still they come. I lose my have my car i lose my family. Just my life i. Feel for our baby. I just know that. Its now well known that europes borders are closed the greece offers little prospect of one would travel to countries like germany. You know. But beyond the friendly smile of a Volunteer Camp worker theyre about to discover another grim reality. There are no bathrooms we havent had a shower for ten days. Hussein and her family from iraq werent prepared for the dire conditions inside the main government run camp boss island and this is all greece has for them and with winter approaching theyre trapped here like thousands of others i believe what we see today is also part of the current strategy the message is very very clear if you want to apply for asylum in europe this is what you will find that where you will stay more than for a long period of time your needs will not be even. And you will probably stay there. If as a person seeking asylum you managed to survive the sea crossing by small rubber boat from turkey twelve miles away you might arrive as many have done at this pretty greek fishing port imagine if your first sight of the European Union was a place like this and yet you ended up stuck for months on end in a place like this not all will have valid claims to asylum some will be considered migrants economic opportunists but whether they fled war or poverty theres no doubting their determination to find a better life i myself. Dont you know so i. Never even. Maybe i did. But it is here. With stuff first place of origin gambia isnt recognized as a country at war its likely he will be deported under the terms of e. U. Policy back to turkey is journey from hell to hell not over yet jonah how aljazeera less boss greece. Online currency bit calling has surged past the ten thousand dollar mark for the first time doubling its value in the space of just four weeks but coins in all my Payment System independent of the Central Banks that can be bought sold or traded online there are no notes or coins lost eight years ago its a trying to billions of dollars of investment worldwide financial mainstream however has kept away but change maybe in the air the worlds biggest Derivatives Exchange of rated c. M. E. Who recently announced that it would start offering Bitcoin Futures and joining me in the studio is janine wong Technology Journalist the website quartz june of a warm welcome to the program just how significant is this ten thousand dollar mark well to some degree its a kind of psychological arbitrary market ten thousand or five thousand but you know the total market value now of bitcoin is one hundred sixty eight billion which is a significant amount of value markets quite a lot of people talk about a kind of bitcoin bubble and weve seen this happen before havent we cycles where you know it rises in value and then theres a crash you know how do you how do we kind of d. Hold that cycle if you like of what bitcoins actually doing absolutely i mean its worth remembering that because its about nine years old now so its a very Young Technology and a young asset class the last big bubble was twenty thirty when it hits one hundred and it took about almost four years for the for it to for the price to surpass that level so after each peak youd have had quite severe creches it strikes me that there are adverse everywhere and i have friends based in that calling you know do this with that point i think most people dont really come to stand well because i missed i think thats the danger isnt it its the investing public gets a sense that this is an asset thats going to make the money quickly without really understanding what what the principles of the Technology Behind it is i think thats what many experts are warning against in this current bitcoin bull run what do you think the sort of short term future might hold of that class and. Asking you to look and see they go into the distance and maybe longer term what you see happening were just going to see a repeat of these cycles as it grows sure think about so if you know economic historians have looked at this and said these sorts of cycles are quite common for young Asset Classes so you know Mike Novogratz who is a Hedge Fund Manager has predicted bitcoin forty k. By the end of twenty eighteen which could well happen in the long term if bitcoin takes off as a technology we would expect to see the volatility volatility drop and it would start to be used much more like an everyday currency whats the attraction do you think with bitcoin because in the beginning it was kind of a it was in a slightly off the Great Community wasnt a bit coin in itself and the people who were using it trading it but not of that it is becoming slowly more mainstream as is that attraction party that isnt involved with the major banks you know im thinking since the financial crash do people want a viable alternative salut the so originally lot of libertarians were propping up or promoting bitcoin and now that has shifted to Hedge Fund Traders and wall street who are chasing returns that are hard to come by in the traditional markets so bitcoin suddenly is looking very very attractive its return one hundred percent this year alone there are other currencies the like that coin on there so you know how did they differ so there are hundreds of cryptocurrency is out there. Probably bit coy in a handful of them are the ones that will make a huge impact so bitcoin the theory im others like z cash for instance those are the ones that tend to be the ones that get all the attention and theres a long tail of hundreds of other cut cryptocurrency is can a person simply goal and buy. Like tomorrow in a simple way absolutely you can download an app you can use apps like corn base coal block change info all those absolutes by bitcoin from your living room from your phone but do you think the best thing is that people. We understand what it is before they dive in there with their life savings thats probably a good idea you have a bit corner any asset class thanks very much for joining us thank you. Now the u. S.

The last major eruption of mt ago in one nine hundred sixty three killed around eleven hundred people the talks are going to zero lets get an update on our earlier breaking news that north korea may have fired a Ballistic Missile thats according to the young happy news agency kathy novak is on the phone now from seoul i think what more do we know. What these early reports out of here in south korea the south korean joint chiefs of staff saying that they that north korea has an unidentified Ballistic Missile and that. The United States at this chance stage are checking the trajectory so that is all the information on the specific file that we have right now of course a lot of interest will be in first of all how far the misfiled travels what kind of an asylum this is and we know in the past north korea has fired two intercontinental range Ballistic Missiles is this another one of that type also the trajectory is interesting to note because in the past we also know that north korea has fired intermediate range Ballistic Missiles over japanese territory that caused a lot of concern of course in japan and north korea is also in the threaten to fire this on in the direction of the u. S. Carry trade of all of this of course will be of great interest here in south korea and in the United States because if it were korea were to follow through on that sort of threat then the next question would be how is the u. S. Likely to respond so more questions than answers im afraid at this stage in terms of what kind of misfile what trajectory and how far it traveled but undoubtedly will cause great concern here in south korea in japan in the United States and indeed around the world. Kathy just very quickly just remind us i believe this is the first launch since that one that we saw back in september am i right in thinking that headed towards japan. Thats right back at the camera the fifteen for the last time that we saw a Ballistic Missile launch or any kind of provocation from north korea something had been being made of that around on a little in political circles questions being asked about why north korea had held off or what is relatively long time by recent standards of for north koreas provocations in fact we heard from the south Korean Unification Ministry Minister just yesterday saying there could be a range of reasons why north korea held off for that long because some in analytical circles have raised the possibility that maybe this pointed to north korea perhaps being more willing to come to the negotiating table about its nuclear and the file program but other thing simply this is a cyclical seasonal thing that in the wintertime north korea turns its focus towards military winter training and that takes away some of its ability to launch missiles and in the past at this time of year we saw less activity in previous years even under the leadership of the current leader kim jong un so those analysts were saying not to read too much into it the other thing that the unification minister had said yesterday at his press briefing was that perhaps north korea is looking to perfect its in the south acknowledging we know that ultimately what north korea wants to do is develop an intercontinental Ballistic Missile that can be armed with a Nuclear Warhead with the ability to reach the United States it says it has that kind of range it also says that it has tested a Hydrogen Bomb we know its most recent nuclear test was a six and most powerful so these are all the questions that were going to be asking when it comes to this missile and finding out what kind of missile it was kathy novak joining me there on the phone from so cal state for that update thank you lets get all the days sport hes now with joe.
