Unless all of us a little help the via my medical source has revealed the details of the medical condition of Mohamed Morsi who died monday afternoon due to a surprise heart attack during a Court Session for the espionage case the source added that morsi had continued to receive medical care and that there was no neglect to his medical condition in and out of prison. But human Rights Groups say egyptian authorities ignored multiple warnings about morsi untimely death because of inhumane prison conditions that he was singled out for mistreatments. In the 1st 4 years of his detention you had exactly 2 family visits he was held in solitary confinement for nearly the entire time it was mention he never received the medical care that he asked for he was not allowed to have the food and medicine provided by his family that virtually all other prisoners in egypt are able to access last year a panel of british politicians and lawyers said treatment in prison was so bad that it could amount to torture 3 projects that if you didnt get the appropriate medical treatment he may very well have a premature death and of course rise out of us water torture is a crime of universal jurisdiction and we found that the responsibility for that would sit all the way up the egyptian chain of. Come on the here are the more they are worth a lot of ideas and the man who sits at the top of the chain of command is egypts current leader preston uphill for the c. C. The former army chief ousted morsi in a military coup in 2013 and since then has locked up thousands of people as Political Prisoners this is the outcome that the Egyptian Government kinds wanted for years or morsi and also other brotherhood leaders like. They dont want necessarily to execute people because of. The execution it would create what they want. There now calls for an International Investigation into morsi Steffen Court while his life in prison seemed entirely nor by the world priyanka gupta. What mattered most is was brief and divisive challenge looks at the right and for. Me Mohamed Morsi sailed into the presidency of egypt on the wins of a peoples revolution demanding change in 2012 he became egypts 1st ever democratically elected president the 1st civilian to hold the office morsi was born in 1951 he spent his adult life 1st as an engineering professor then as a member of parliament and a political prisoner the egyptian revolution in 2011 set the stage for morsi to reach the pinnacle of power from the start his critics accused him of placing his allegiance with the Muslim Brotherhood and not the country morsi made a point of repeatedly promising to be a president for all egyptians his opponents however claim he tried to consolidate his power by giving himself or thorazine above the judiciary and dominating the governments with Muslim Brotherhood members. Morsi said his actions were to combat counter revolutionary forces led by the socalled deep state. It wanted to kill egypts nascent democracy those forces included members of the military as well as regional powers namely the u. A. E. And saudi arabia who were vehemently opposed to the arab spring and june 23rd seen in scenes reminiscent of the revolution huge crowds of egyptians filled square calling for their president to step down it was a culmination of the tower of Rebel Campaign a movement which was born a few months prior and was later revealed to have been supported by abu dhabi morsi supporters took to the streets to which emboldened him and he refused to step down instead he made an offer of National Reconciliation including forming a new government of technocrats that offer was rejected by the army which days later deposed him ending egypts historic brief experiment with democracy stripped of the title of president morsi swiftly became a political prisoner once again he was ultimately tried and sentenced to death for allegedly working with Foreign Armed groups and crossing a mass jailbreak when guards were killed numerous human Rights Groups as well as british parliamentarians and his family complained of intentional medical neglect and warns that morsi is imprisonment conditions would lead to his death if not improved to the end he was defiant rejecting the courts or thorough and insisting he was the legitimate president of egypt elected by the people. Death is being mourned by many around the world. Holding funeral prayers in his honor president. And in jordans capital amman people have expressed sadness about morphys death offering condolences to his family and supporters is also anger at the way morsi was treated in prison. He was the 1st democratically elected president in the history of egypt to the ballot box not through coups and chaos he was elected legally i feel sorry for the egyptian people egyptian people are known as a free nation educated and free but i feel sorry for them. I feel very sad for his death he was the 1st elected president i couldnt sleep last night after i heard the news he was treated badly they tortured him and humiliated him we feel sad and we pay our condolences to his family to the egyptian people and to his supporters the people in new york also voiced their anger about the way morsi was treated since being forced from power and they gathered in times square some with yellow placards which are symbols of support for the Muslim Brotherhood well leaders in turkey in malaysia and in ca to pay tribute to Mohamed Morsi the reaction from other governments particularly in the west has been largely muted but also about the state Department Spokeswoman morgan will tell us it said only that they saw that the death was reported the United Kingdom has issued no official comment at all germany too is quiet about morsy is death and there has been no statement from the french either well lets take this on now with me is opera whos a professor of Political Science at kuwaits university was a cover of welcome to the program thank you this lack of reaction from the west are you surprised. Not really its. That has been many lack of reaction over many issues. Violence. Towards. Nations of human rights across. The west is that there are other priorities for the show being remembered most it was a pivotal figure of his time was near and you think there would be something you would think but to me the most important reaction is the one coming from Human Rights Watch coming from human rights organizations i think thats where it matters most it seems to me that the west is feeling issues and so many tests when it comes to human rights and when it comes to people said that that many asian youre right i mean there are un institutions and Human Rights Watch as you say who are talking about this and saying how wrong it has been but they say these things theyve been saying them for many years but nobody seems to listen. Well the people of the region do listen they have a pulse the people of the region and the people of egypt understand more than anybody else what has happened this death of president morsi reflects full negligence when it comes to the way he was jailed and the conditions he was living under in jail. This requires an investigation into what has happened that i think his death the way it happened with haunt the government and the political system the regime in egypt for a long time to come. Down the line how it will come about has how will it come to hold it will come back the way so many other issues do have an impact this is a former president he was elected the 1st to be elected in a long history of egypt he was thrown out there rested in a coup and there was. A big issue of violations that came as a result of that particular change. He should not have been treated this way there should have been some sort of a reconciled before that there must have been a way out leaving him in jail in such a condition for 6 years with limited medical attention who is to blame isnt it the system is that there is deemed isnt it the president s right its interesting as were just hearing now that the u. N. Is demanding a full inquiry and full investigation into what is has screwed including his time in the treatment within prison so thats your view is a good thing well i would say that we will see more reactions within the coming few days as time goes by this is could be a turning point regarding the state of human rights and the state of jails in egypt interesting as far as the lack of reaction from the west as we speak is that because they want to stir up a geo political story. They would just rather prefer the status quo to be maintained like oh you know what i mean when you say theres other progress we will need to ask the west you know why this muted reaction why in so many different places from from palestine to to other places in the region to human rights to even the situation today over iran and sanctions after the nuclear deal what i saw is so weak even in front of this rise of the rights and the attitude of President Trump after all he brought the new atmosphere to the west that is more his your money but yet much more lacking in content and in the ability to implement mean was so thats one side of things but on the other side you have dictators still falling for you the situation in sudan the situation in algeria the people are still unhappy and making their voices heard and its having an effect exactly i mean what started in 211 with the people demanding respect demanding to be representation demanding their rights demanding justice demanding economic incentives and a better life and kind of transparency in the system and accountability is still today its still the same there is eames did not learn from the lessons of 211 did not reform did not change did not go into issues that really mattered for the citizen and what we see today with egypt tells me that the system in egypt has not learned the lesson of 211 that makes me predict that there will be other rounds and thats not the end of history should we go from saving towards you thanks very much indeed thank you. Well the rest of the days news is still ahead. Including me i think minorities struggling to find sanctuary outside of china. What should a russia has had to say about the United States decision to deploy more troops to the middle east.

The number of people displaced has increased significantly according to the United Nations is now 300000 people displaced since. Nearly 200 people have been killed.

More troops to the middle east before making the announcement the. Elite iranian troops removing exploded mine from one of the 2 or explosions last week. The u. S. Military says these newly released photos taken from a Navy Helicopter show members of irans revolutionary guard removing an unexploded mine from the side of a Japanese Oil Tanker thered been an earlier explosion on that tanker and another ship last week in the gulf of oman iran denies involvement but on monday night the pentagon announced it was sending approximately 1000. 00 additional troops to the middle east by and large when you look at the overall side of u. S. Military forces are small measure its designed to send a message but its also designed to notch this is nowhere near what you need for an invasion or a war in a statement u. S. Acting secretary of defense Patrick Shanahan said the United States does not seek conflict with iran the action today is being taken to ensure the safety and welfare of our military personnel working throughout the region and to protect our National Interests the u. S. Relationship with iran has deteriorated rapidly since President Trump withdrew from the 2015 Nuclear Treaty citing irans engagement in this whole development and supporting proxy armies since that the us has imposed and ever tightening news of economic sanctions on iran washington calls it a campaign of maximum pressure but leaders have been promoting another term maximum restraint you have seen that already in the last days we have called for the maximum restraint i think back to a particular wisdom have been the words of secretary general of the United Nations but that is when he says that the world cannot afford another crisis especially in an area like that irans decision to increase your radio production has led some in the u. S. To hughes tehran of nuclear blackmail washington flexing its military might only add to the tension and the fear of confrontation heidi joe castro aljazeera Washington Well in a televised speech irans president Hassan Rouhani insisted his country had nothing to do with what happened to the time because the u. S. Is just trying to stir up conflict. American efforts in the region to cut our relations with the world and isolate iran have all been unsuccessful if Certain Companies in some countries dont want to cooperate with us because of us pressure we condemn america for this we dont want war with any nation those facing us are a group of politicians with a little experience well meanwhile russia is warning the us not to deploy more troops to the middle east describing the move provocative lets put this up with a new study that tell us more about russias response. Well words are for straight here also in moscow but also a very strong message to the United States from the Deputy Foreign minister ripped off to sad that if the u. S. Is really serious not wanting any war in the middle east then they should not send any additional troops he basically said to the United States prove that you really dont want any war but and at the same time meanwhile president putin has also met with president rouhani last week at a summit in kyrgyzstan and also has actually put some pressure on iran saying that iran should comply with the nuclear deal and according to put in spokesman person or hand he said that iran wants to comply with this deal but the Deputy Foreign minister also said that he is concerned about the increased production of enriched uranium by iran but he also understands that the country is taking d. S. Steps but he says he doesnt support it so basically russia but also china are calling on iran to comply with the deal but also calling on the european nations to come together and look for a solution also so you run can actually export oil again and use the money for its own resources so basically russia and china are trying to play a mediating peace making role here to make sure that the tensions in the middle east are not going any higher so what is russias game plan here. Well russia and iran have become quite close allies because of the war in syria russia and iran are basically fighting on the same side on the government side in syria as well so the of course russia wants this this commitment to iran to to continue s. While but also wants to play this this peacemaker this mediator in the world and showing to the world that the United States basically is at the wrong side of history here and its increasingly becoming isolated thats basically the game plan that russia is playing right now or id start thanks very much steverson the reporting now geopolitical tensions and trade wars are all in the frame at the International Person show in france turkeys own Stealth Fighter jet dubbed the turkish fighter was on display it comes as the u. S. Blocked to turkey from purchasing american f. 35. 00 fighter jets in dispute over increased plans to buy a Russian Defense system donald trump has given turkey until the end of july to pull out of the deal with russia but i said butler is at the show in the bush just northeast of curse. Well the turkish made fighter jet thats been launched air at the Paris Air Show is designed to replace turkeys aging fleet of f. 16 s now the manufacturer says that will be in the skies by 2025 and in full service by 2028 but the launch i hear is very interesting indeed in terms of timing because it comes just as the United States has threatened to expel turkey from its f. 35 Fighter Jet Program turkey is part of our program its a nato member it has been Building Components for it is invested a 1000000000. 00 and is also expecting 100. 00 f. 35. 00 jets but ankara has infuriated washington by buying a Russian Missile Defense System that washingtons not pleased about us and they also say that that missile Defense System is simply incompatible with having the f. 35. 00 for security reasons well all this of course has made the relationship between the United States and turkey which is already very strained over many issues including those of Foreign Policy even more tense. A mixed bag in europe that yes but if we look at the as always its not really mix so much as wet now theres always is somewhere we dont really cover very often in the weather partly because of its remote location but also because its generally nice its sunny its warm it doesnt get too cold in winter and it doesnt get too hot in summer however just over the last day or so weve had some thunderstorms that have made it pretty wet here in fact this is the video that we currently see and you can see the water absolutely rushing down the hillside there and it has flooded many homes the streets and its also pulled down some trees as well so clearly things have been a little bit out of the ordinary there now fortunately the rain there has passed but instead were now seeing this weather system work its way through parts of spain of the fronts and up through the u. K. And this is a little root thats been pretty wet in cool over the last week or so where is the rest of europe has been really very warm sunny in fact its been pretty hot for many of us now this weather system here. Is actually going to make a bit more headway so all of that hot weather thats been over europe for quite some time is finally being chased down the way hope for now though still some thunderstorms around so many of us but this weather system will continue its journey eastwards as we head through the next few days now its making quite slow progress but by the time it makes its way across us we will see those temperatures drop however its also going to bring some or all the thunder reactivity as well and it will stay cold force in the northwest nick starr thanks very much among the stories coming up here in our desire to look at the risks for venezuelans crossing the border into colombia hoping to get basic supplies. Donald trumps time in office as he gets ready to launch his Reelection Campaign. I do support kind of its Prime Minister is one of 2000000 thrown into raptures found he turned out to welcome home the n. B. A. Champ. As it breaks local communities here in putting are very frustrated because the lack of post Storm Services with detailed coverage this past month and the fact that people flock to see this struggling to make plans and its i just want a better life from around the wilds and agassi has been offered it to those who we value against the government. Except those involved in human rights abuses a war crime. How do you know what yeah there are a reminder the top stories this and egypts only democratically elected president Mohammed Morsi has been buried at the cemetery car a day after he died in court he were Rights Groups say morsi suffered poor treatment in prison the u. N. Is calling for a full investigation. Ongoing as me to carry his off it what she calls her most sincere apology for the way he and i should issue a bill thats been home to hundreds of thousands have been protesting over the. Russias Foreign Ministry says plans by the United States to send 1000. 00 additional troops to the middle east is provocative the pentagon has released pictures that it says show elite rainin troops removing an unexploded mine from one of the oil tankers hit by explosions last week. All right more on our top story and Rights Groups have accuse egypts government of brutally abusing its powers to crush critics and opponents Human Rights Watch says Security Forces act without fear of punishment for example no one has been investigated over the killing of 800 pro morsi demonstrators in 2013 the Organization Adds that albert tree arrests unfair. Trials and torture a commonplace all under the cover of fighting terrorism. Recorded more than 1500. 00 cases of forced disappearances between 2013 or of 2018 and journalists have been intimidated and imprisoned including al jazeera who say hes been behind bars without charge for more than 900. 00 s. Well Human Rights Watch says the Egyptian Governments treatment of morsi is indicative of more widespread abuses we believe. That. President morsi isolation and treatment might actually amount to torture i cording to the Un Convention against torture and according to the basic principles of keeping inmates. Different government completely ignored and disregarded i think ceases government have shown. Contempt for the basic human needs i think this. President s morsi should actually. Bring attention to the state of thousands of prisoners in egypt president s some of which are even not convicted just sent to prisons on this kind of pretrial detention on able to see judges unable to see their families. And we documented before a Human Rights Watch of the many inmates because of the bad detention conditions because because of the lack of sufficient medical care i think this is this should serve as a wake up call for egypts International Allies to actually raise the alarm about the state of human rights in egypt and britain conditions. The Un Food Agency is warning it will start to suspend food aid to who think controlled areas of yemen this week the wall food program says the rebels and not letting them do that job accusing them of diverting aid from those who need it most it blames haitis for not sticking to a previous agreement which includes a system to ensure fed distribution after extensive dialogue again i wrote to the authorities asking not for words but action on of the agreements youve signed if we do not receive these assurances then we will begin a phase suspension of Food Assistance most likely towards the end of this week the humanitarian situation in yemen is dire and despite the image suffering of the 20000000 yemenis who do not have enough to eat we continue to face fierce resistance to simply just do our job to keep people alive.

When border crossings between venezuela and colombia reopened it came as a relief for venezuelans desperate to cross over and get food medicine and other things that cant find a home but as i listened to reports an increase in Police Numbers means the journey now carries even greater risks for those without the right papers.
