A little later on monday and iran iranian officials here and to her on will be looking to that meeting hoping that there is some kind of acknowledgement for the roots of these tensions they of course blame the United States solely for escalating tensions in the region creating an insecure atmosphere for all of the countries in the region and they have said over and over again they will not negotiate with the United States but during the press briefing mr mousavi did say that the iranian officials are open to negotiating with their neighbors. Manns what issue does most like it up weve said for a while that iran is always prepared for dialogue with neighboring countries in the region this is aligned with the interests of all regional states weve recently made a proposal for the signing of a nonaggression pact and an assembly for dialogue these are the solutions that iran has offered so the ball is in their court they should decide what they should do iran has waited with open arms for them despite the differences we have with neighboring countries its all out of misunderstanding that iran is ready for full talks and saying iran has been very consistent in saying theyll continue to pull out of parts of the nuclear deal what more can you tell us. Well thats exactly right it was something that the Foreign Ministry has said over and over again recently the Deputy Foreign minister mr abbas iraq she said that they are unwavering in their in their commitment to deescalating or rich tracting their commitment to their joint comprehensive plan of action the 2050 nuclear deal because they see other signatories to the deal dont seem committed to maintaining it and mr mousavi during his press briefing also seemed to put a number on what could possibly change that direction he was asked if the european banking mechanism instax that it would allow iran to effectively trade with europe and bypass american sanctions he was asked if that could make a difference he was also asked if russias offer to have some sort of banking relationship with iran to bypass american sanctions could help and he seemed to say that if it was just some sort of token gesture that would be unsatisfactory if it was something mundane that simply would not be enough to stop iran from continuing to d. S. To continue its lack of commitment its noncooperation with the nuclear deal he said that before the United States pulled out of the Nuclear Deal Iran was selling 2800000. 00 barrels of oil a day if it comes close to that that could run to you turn on its position and of course july 7th is the deadline for 60 days since iran began its non cooperation with the nuclear deal and it has promised in writing to the remaining signatories of the deal that if something doesnt change by then it will continue down the track of pulling away from the agreement itself all right to be there in tehran saying thank you. Time for a short break here not just iraq when we come back not slaves to the u. S. The Palestinian Leader isnt holding back in his rejection of the socalled deal of the century. And forced to flee their homes because of violence now tens of thousands of displaced people in central mali face a new crisis more of that stay with us.

If the o. P. s government says its back in control of a Northeastern State of them horror after a failed rebellion the countrys military chief and the leader or among 4 killed.

Protests against a controversial bill in hong kong now taking a different thats hundreds of gathered inside official buildings to maintain their pressure on the government as a 3rd week of protests against a proposed law that would allow criminal suspects to be extradited to Mainland China the bill has been shelved for now but protesters want it scrapped entirely china has barred the issue from being discussed at the g 20 summit which is being held this week in japan. So the military has dismissed a plan for a Transitional Government put forward by ethiopias lead it Prime Minister abu ahmed has been leading the mediation efforts but sudans military says his plan already backed by the opposition defense from the African Union initiative but george hamon is the africa director at Freedom House thats a nongovernmental body he says the military is stalling for time. I would characterize this as classic sudanese delay tactics and weve seen this before from the previous regime trying to play mediators are against each other trying to buy time trying to have these sort of circular conversations that ultimately end up going nowhere i think thats what theyre doing here i think ethiopia is probably about as good amongst the regional countries of a mediator as you could hope for but they dont have the leverage on their own they need the influence of saudi arabia and the us and probably United States as well to really change the calculations of the military in particular and its very much remains to be seen whether those countries are going to engage in a more productive manner thousands of people displaced by the fighting in central mali are struggling to feed themselves the conflict between her doesnt farmers belong to rival ethnic groups has led to the deaths of hundreds of people aljazeera is malcolm web reports from the region i would a 1st called malaria then became constipated her mother maryam says they only have rice left to eat in their village and so i is weight plummeted.

Landscapes dry at the best of times now many gone they were mostly farmers far from their crops and many fulani herders animals have been stolen or killed banditry has made road transport too dangerous. For centuries the river in asia played a crucial role in transporting food and other goods around this region these boats bring produce from farming areas and its traded here at the port in the town and not to these sacks of ground up rice husks will be sold and fed to cattle the interdependence between the herders and the farmers as lasted for centuries as well the herders buy food from the farmers and in the dry season the farmers pay the herders to take their livestock out onto the plains for grazing but that interdependence is now strained. Hundreds of been killed in the last 3 months as militia connected to both groups of burned homes and massacred villages. Many of those who fled to the safety of nearby towns are hungry. Instead of handing out food Uns World Food Program is keeping credit on cards to people to buy from local traders they have the right tools on their feet for this is helpful before 13 year from their village this is for the dignity of choosing what they want to.

A socalled deal of the century Palestinian Leaders are boycotting this weeks summit in bahrain where senior white house adviser jared cushion will reveal details of the plan israels Prime Minister says hell give it fair consideration but palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas says its bound to fail. I dont think it will be any results from the manana workshop because it was built on wrong foundations what is built on falsehood is false the minimal workshop came to solve the problem but what problem you cannot make problem but this is a political problem it cannot make problem with who for example when they say they want to give the palestinians an amount of money for the palestinians they should have been into tina statehood so you need to 1st recognize the state after that you can save this state needs this and that.

Aljazeera. Ruling turkeys powerhouse the a cave partys dominance is put to the test in istanbuls rerun of its Mayoral Election but what does that mean for the countrys democracy and also for the president mr herder one this is inside story. Hello and welcome to the program im peter dobby the turkish president wretch up time to one has always been keenly aware that politically speaking what happens to turkeys 2nd city could have a major and last an impact on his own political future the city is crucially important as the nations business hub but it dealt a blow to the president s ruling justice and development a k. Party during the merrow lections in march the ruling a Party Contested that result over counting irregularities and turkeys electoral board up held the complaint so turkish voters went back to the polls many saying theyre concerned about unemployment and the rising cost of living mr owens critics blame him for the economic recession and the vote is seen as a referendum on his policies aljazeera is hasham alba sets up our discussion today from istanbul. President roosevelt said many times that whether winds winds turkey the city was the starting point for our partys political rise and dominance in recent years it was when the mayor ship or we stumbled in 1994 that catapulted him on to the National Stage and helped launch the party which has managed ever since to win general elections and secure comfortable leads and this explains why when they lost the city in march it came as a major setback for john for the party and for his supporters and although this is a local election but the rerun could be a crucial moment for a party if they lose it could be an indication they are losing Popular Support or a need to reinvent themselves or the public sentiment in turkey is shifting to words supporting an alternative to a party. For inside story. Ok lets hear how some turkish voters feel about this rerun this 2nd. Sin i think is going to solve. Most of the problems remain a force still political. And a tickler issues in the room everybodys opposed to the high alexion boards decision to rerun the istanbul election like nobody thought this was ordinary hopefully this election will be held within the last. Taking part in this election but with qualms this cannot be tonight its a fact we hope that irregularities will not happen in this election. Ok lets get going lets introduce our panel today from istanbul mecca met chelate managing editor of the daily star newspaper from london fadi a quarter manager of the turkey project at Chatham House and from ankara yusuf conley formerly the editor of the how to get newspaper welcome to you all in istanbul lets go back to march and start our discussion there those claims of irregularities there was only 13000. 00 votes in it but those claims how was that received by the voters. Well i think there is there is 2 side of the story there is those voters who say that this small margin should be analyzed and should the claim should be taken seriously and the fact that the party side took it to Supreme Election Council should be taken serious the fact that there is more than 10000000 voters in a stumble this small margin should be taken into consideration but on the other hand there is the opposition voter base who says that you know this small margin and irregularities are seen as. You know like an escape from the losing side but at the end of the day it is the supreme election counsel who is eligible who is able to make that decision whether or not the claims were you know worthy of taken into consideration and the fact that they were you know one day decided to nullify the march 31st election by you know 7 in favor of the party poll i think its significant i mean this was a judicial process that our party had a right to appeal to and they did that this is part of our election process and election laws and you know there is the tiredness from mia from the elections by the by the voters at the same time so you know there is 2 side of the stories in this whole canceling of the march 31st elections 30 cooler in london whats the central message from the voters of istanbul to mr. I think the the voters in istanbul are deeply unhappy with the curating state of the economy food inflation is over 30 percent unemployment is in double digits the turkish lira is plummeting against the us dollar and the euro the debt burden either by the felt by the turkish private sector and or consumer is becoming increasingly unbearable for the number one issue for the istanbul voters is the state of the National Economy also we see now the majority now over 50 percent of all turkish Bank Deposits now are denominated in a foreign currency which is an indication of growing impatience by the turkish public over the state of the economy use of cammy in ankara if that growing impatience translates into the political sands are shifting underneath the a k p does that mean that those same sans are shifting as well under the feet of president to one page of course because no say deserves to stumble the engine of and or the 15000. 00 difference between the 2 contenders or the 1st drug wars unit of and one ward is enough to even or lose the election that was what is the. Or was there to be no yield and said before the election and indeed just a case these double rerun is indeed iraq being the cause of it is all the people in the lewis is there in the country and it is ruining the image of turkey as occurred to capable lower holding in fair and just elections this one tour of course the odd couple of these double action movie will be dominated really way the result of people using the can i just into. Stop you there for a 2nd just for a 2nd thats not quite an answer to my question my question was this are we in effect seeing mr erdogan on not displaying the political dexterity that he has displayed since 1904 since he took istanbul himself is he beginning to lose his political grip and people are reacting to that of course in a certain extend is that it is stumble and just by be the beginning of the end of him there is an expectation are there you know in. Politics you cannot be sure oh editing as every election is. I go i did have a particularly you know it is it evades double but hopefully this will be the end overtone tonio. Heavily ody in the country 30 her career in london there are already existing fissures within the a. K. Party could this rerun of the mer alexion make those fissures bigger make them more acute and therefore make them damaging for mr the one. I think that if i can just add one point to your previous speaker when leaders nationally distend to stay too long in politics normally over 10 years they become increasingly they become increasingly centralize too much power in their hands we saw that with market factor in the United Kingdom we saw that with helmut kohl in germany where National Leaders and now we see it with Angela Merkel in germany again so i dont need to stay too long in power they tend to they tend become less more inflexible and try to centralize as much power as as possible and measurements in istanbul i guess thats a fair point i mean the voters of istanbul are just tired surely theyve heard what 6 votes not 56 votes in 5 years theyre just exhausted when it comes to having to go and vote for somebody again. Well that is right in fact the rerun decision was not at this is in part initially demanded they want they demanded the recount of votes but the c. H. P. Unfortunately stood against that and then our party had to take them take their appeal to Supreme Election Council and the decision was made by the Supreme Election Council. With regards to the previous points made i think if there is an exhaustion of the election is there is that perception that has taken a blow busy by using lets say on qatar and some of the other big cities and and the fact that a position has been able to consolidate its voter base against him in istanbul but we should not forget that its been 17 years nearly 2 decades of a party being in power and entering elections and winning every single one of them in fact they warn i mean they received the most votes and they were the most popular busy and people student stood behind them by by far in the past in march 31st elections to there is that however fatigue in our party that our party has been able to renew itself in the past elections and i think this election was one of them and they have to take some of the points people try to make. Into consideration and economy is one of them economy has to be a Getting Better and i think if the fact that it is one of the indicators and one of the factors affecting peoples decision the government has to take that into consideration and president out on has said that they will focus on economy in the past you know nearly 4 and a half years of nor lection period thats what this one of the 1st thing he said right after the march 31st elections but there is a rerun. The decision that was made this was not made by our party nor that the our party demanded this but there were regularities that had that our party had appealed and the decision was made by the Supreme Election Council you safe enough for this agree just to stop you there gentlemen its want to put that point to use of cannily in ankara did people go for mr m m o 2 in march granted there was only 13000 votes in it but did they go for him because he had genuinely attractive logical policies or did they go for him because he wasnt the a. K. P. Was the people went in a mood because diesel in him. The whole. People still hope the justices were going to move everything will be far better is indeed deflective will work even will offer to turks people who just were turkish city of. A smooth running democracy rather than one man show that mr erdogan going to turkey over the past 17 years 40 in london just to be clear for those of us who are not totally across that the tapestry of turkish politics is stan bull is the jewel in the political crown of turkish politics if you lose stan bull your prestige is dented surely so whats your direction of travel if your the president even if there is a distance between you as an a k p president and the party itself. Theres not doubt that is stumbled extremely important in Turkish National politics and present arrogance victory in istanbul with isnt is a very important or loss that is its an important psychological. Important psychological value but i think the president erred on made a strategic error by exaggerating the importance of istanbul what is important in turkey now is not istanbul but the state of the National Economy if the economy continues to deteriorate his hold on power will get weaker and weaker but if the economy improves then his his his tenure in an office will be solidified so i think it was a strategic error on present part to exaggerate the importance of istanbul rather than remaining laser focused on the economy but surely ferdie hes played a clever game with this particular election not the election in march this particular election he kind of has been very hands off hes been very standoffish he hasnt been out there campaigning. He has not present there don has decided this time around to take a more backseat role in the elections but ultimately for the voters of istanbul its going to its really its really a competition between the present era the one and the c. H. P. Candidate Republican Peoples Party candidate. Him or look i think at the olympics in turkeys deep is a very is very personalized individuals are much more important than parties it could be is present aired on the and present aired on is that it could be if you were to lose power then i think like in the past in previous parties youll see that i think over time will disintegrate and disappear so what matters is really its really present at the one who was on the ballot box rather than the official. Be counted there been other you there met mick coming back to mr ball the Opposition Group ings the small Opposition Group in some kind of reinvented themselves a little bit in as much as they got behind the c. H. P. Can they stay there can they stay united and present a can they can they coalesce around the c. H. P. As a National Opposition to mr. Well right now i think your position has consolidated its voter base around one thing and that is being anti add on and i dont think that the fact that they come from various ideological backgrounds various social backgrounds and they have different. Motives and goals in their political stances and in turkish politics i think you know of course everything is possible but it is very difficult for a very conservative lets say Felicity Party to stand with you know c. H. B. Or the fact that although they are not they are not officially part of the alliance but lets say the h d p which is which which receives a lot of votes from the current we i mean which receives most of the votes from the kurdish voters its very difficult for them to be in an alliance or supporting a candidate who also receives. Vote votes busy and support from a very nationalist far right good party this was a strategic game they have been in and the ultimate aim here is to eliminate out on from the political sphere of political arena in turkey it whether or not this is a long term. Strategic. Alliance i dont think that it will serve 2 parties long term interests however in the short term they have been successful and we can see that through. Mystery men will lose votes which was nearly 50 percent you know and he was able to surpass nearly all the rooms votes if this were this alliance wasnt there i mean we know the Traditional Voter base of c. H. P. Being iran oddly 30 odd percent and our party has been. Close to 50 percent in the past few years or. The fact that this alliance has brought them a result in the short term i dont think we can say that this will stay like that unless they come to serve some sort of other ideological compromises made it within their bases or they are they come to a consensus on how they will go forward and. Just and to err on ism is not enough or that for them to Stay Together im sure a lot in it and stick probably to interrupting them at use of cannily in ankara mr in effect during this campaign surely tried to try to straddle 2 stools he was almost similar the pitching himself as being a victor who wasnt given the victory but he was also pushing himself as being a victim was that a canny Political Choice on his part or do you think that long term that may backfire. You know it is politics being weak dem always paid off and now earn or not only a mama look but the government is throwing to play the role of victim as well and i believe it. Will is the real victim in this current case and it will pay off i expect personally between 4 to 6 per cent difference between. The 90 years that have been the todays election just because. Of debt but also all our party while on the one hand. Playing rather dirty in accusing human will or being a picky candidate itself a gauging in a very. Dirty campaign or getting or more cases in prisons youve been after closure on in latest efforts therefore. As my friend from somerset yes indeed its very difficult for the. Automation of this group to stay in the same boat that. Separatist terrorists there for the same problem that he mentioned about you but will is exists for the government flag as vell can we say now given the strength of feeling that mr erdogan is safe for now but you know events dear boy thats an expression about european politics there may be something further down the line if this does not when once the dust has settled if this doesnt play to his strengths if it plays to his weaknesses were talking about the economy and the a. K. P. Also meant that theyre taking ideas out of the c. H. P. Playbook theyre talking about literally bread and butter issues lowering the cost of public transport mr bull thats a vote winner shorty. Well you know what i think is stumble elections are very significant for either sides political future in turkey at the end of the day this is we should not forget that this is also just a municipal election however if the government you know if the opposition wins istanbul and the government does not take that loss into consideration and answers to demands of the people when it comes to the economy or other demands they may have or they have i think it is only normal for any government or any Political Parties power to erode and diminish in time if they fail to meet peoples demands but a party and im only saying this looking at their past if they are able to readjust themselves if they if they are able to. You know strengthen the economy if theyre able to play their diplomatic moves efficiently and successfully in International Politics and if theyre able to. Somehow get back to their connection and their communication with the public i think is stumble election that significance from a stumble election will be diminished at the same time thats i mean dicks theory t. We talk about when it comes to art on mr and on and i think hes you know hes a political genius that we have seen for the many decades in turkey if hes able to make that shift even if the stumble is lost and i think the political long jetty or 5 party will still be there however if people do not see that readjustment as success its only normal for any Political Party or any government to not get the same supports as the previous elections and people will make that choice you know turkish took us voters are very aware and very educated when it comes to that ok fadi in london clearly its impossible to get into mr the ones head but once this chapter has been completely written you know and were viewing this through the prism of miral elections in istanbul does mr need to tilt a little bit does he need to come out not fighting but come out visibly changing changing himself changing the party and changing the country. I think that if assuming that the ruling party were to lose the were to lose the elections in istanbul i think the president erred on should become should adopt a much more conciliatory approach to politics rather than this very confrontational robust and in some and many ways ideological attitude to his opponents but i suspect that present the one will not adopt a conciliatory approach i think he will double down on a very assertive and aggressive. Posture towards his opponents i doubt i dont think that theres many easy fixes easy fixes for the turkish economy any changes are going to be have to be structural and that will not be easy for president or do want to undertake and i doubt that there will be undertaken so i says my my expectation is that you will see that present air dont continue with his current approach to politics rather than. Rather than taking their lessons and trying to reverse course to maintain his hold on power gentlemen we have to leave it there but thank you so much for such an interesting conversation today here on inside story thanks to all our guests they were.

N. Security council will be meeting later monday later today to address tensions between the United States and iran in this region and iranian officials will be looking for some form of acknowledgment of what they consider the root cause of these tensions which is the aggressive stance of the u.

S. Economic sanctions by the remaining signatories to that deal and during his press briefing mr mousavi said that the nuclear deal needs to have some form of balance with the United States pulling out and with all of the economic sanctions iran is facing he said that there is a form of imbalance and to reset that something needs to change he was asked if the Banking Transaction the bypassed american sanctions that europe has tried to set up known as instax or the offer from russia to try to have some form of banking bypass to help iran continue to sell its oil and generate revenue when asked if that would help to stop iran from continuing its noncompliance regime with the nuclear deal he said that there had to be balance and that iran was selling 2800000. 00 barrels of oil a day before the United States pulled out of the deal and if there was some sort of monday or token response that would simply be too and satisfactory to stop iran from continuing its noncompliance with the j.
