Majority of the royal family itself so thats why his mom and order was given platforms on states rum television or Media Outlets or those close to it how has saudi media on both supporting carbon some man been able to. Between being my goal from shining a light on him as an example of progressiveness through suddenly trying to convince the people but heres a Foreign Agent or treater on somebody who wants harm to the kingdom and to his country that just. Proves the book of of their discourse take the example of this already in bassett or the current saudi ambassador to the kid who. Who has written his masters dissertation on my father he studied my father and he that title. Of his published book later was son man a man in order from prison to enlightenment and he presented my father as an i couldnt. Lie to me in so arabia and in the arab world and he is now i mean hes part of how the state really thinks about my father that he is an icon of light a mint. Of moderate islam but also why the state fused him the most because of that light and because of that moderate islam so thats another issue why this is doing his a moderate Islam Campaign because those people like my father were really expose his his discourse ok tell me what happened to your father how was your. After after the rift between. Qatar until we debut in 2017 my father tweeted that male law harmonize between the hearts of the leader for the past of their peoples. He did not mention names but he doesnt mention even lake country the countries was just calling for unity exactly so few hours after this tweet. States forces from state security showed up at the house they did not they refused to present any badges or any legal documents without any legal proceeding the search the house the took my father away and they said to my brothers that its going to be just a few hours and he will be back safe and sound but what happened was was not that he was held incommunicado for 6 months we heard about. Drones without being able to see. Well you legal him without any legal proceeding whatsoever were you able to speak german law 6 months no i was never able to speak to him even until now. So when after that after the 6 but the 1st 6 months we were i mean there was a leak about his hospitalization in prison we tried to ask we try nobody responded to that so we told the new i told the news and it went really viral at that time so they after that they allowed some some family visits and during the found visits we knew the horrible treatment that he faced during his imprisonment and just really just remember my father is the most popular figure in the kingdom and he was treated. Like that so just imagine those who are less known for it than not known to the public or to the International Media what would they do how would they. People saw in those 6 months that he was Holding Community in the following months muhammad and some man was welcomed in washington and london and paris some other places. How do you think about what message does that some true saudi government on one hand but they can continue doing this and get International Agreement but also does it is its encouraging to those who are calling for freedom and reform in saudi arabia that while theyre getting tortured or theyre icons are internal those who are essentially oppressing them are being celebrated its actually very hurtful yeah its very hurtful for a lot of people to see i mean the International Media up until the moment of killing jamal hustle she was trying to to promote and. To. To to to portray the card prince as the one who pushed for your forms coattails the religious establishment. Promotes the moderate islam and who was diversified this already caught they ignored and neglected the human rights the neglected how the internal dynamics of soda. Looked like they needed like a very long time to realize and even know there are some media campaigns that really still buy the the reformer kind of campaign and p. R. We speak of democracy you knew. What would you think. His there. To shine a light on the. Human Rights Violations and crimes that are taking place in saudi arabia well the she. Was horrible but but it was a wake up call for the saudi public. Which they care about more than anything and for the set for the International Media for the International Community the the case of how sure she. Is actually in her busy additive of the human rights cases in saudi arabia those who killed him and the saudi consulate in istanbul are still treating the voices that have similar concerns. And those who have a similar discourse with. Him a lot so i mean the same. Mines that treated with with wood products. With grow some killing are still tortured in woman humorous defenders feminists humorous offenders the moderate muslims and the the economists in saudi arabia they those who. Are in the art are treated in the prisoners in jail after you know one you have are to the murder of 2 monsters to your hard President Trumps a. Really hard core flights billions of dollars worth of deals for the life of one person who wasnt even an american as you know right and this is what it comes down to really talk about i mean you are somebody who and i want to get into a bit about your own history and what youre looking to do now you can talk about human rights and you can aspire to have some countries are docked your campaigns and your calls but in reality its about money and its about. Political influence not if the well if they want to think like realistically and think they want to have a Real Alliance would sell arabia to should not put the eggs in the basket of m. B. s for one thing m. B. s is not so rabiah and b. S. Is not the history of sarabia m. B. s is not his own doyle family and base is not this a republic so if you want to really. Establish a Real Alliance with wood rabia if you want to make sure that you have a stable relationship if you want to have a long Term Alliance you have to establish that with with the saudi public will be there for ever with this it would be institutions with the even this it would. The royal family who at one point they agreed. To transform into a Constitutional Monarchy so thats why m. B. A. s came to power to kill that call to kill that coast and to just support aboard the demands toward more liberties and and freedom is saudi arabia weve seen dissidents like john hustle she has happened to them are either killed or some have been essentially rendition forcibly kidnapped from countries and back to saudi arabia you are now not only a significant figure because of your father maybe being a voice for him whilst hes being silent but also because of your history of writing and how the media calling for reforms or what is your message are you not worried and concerned for your own safety. There are there is always a concern but the the i mean what the larger fear is not for myself but for the future for my societies future i mean into have basic liberties elections in saudi arabia where the people is represented where the rights are protected and and that and only that can protect the future and the unity the current unity of syria and those who care who do those who do not care about human rights and so they should care about their own Strategic Interests and the special interests will only be you know dealt with. By the saudi institutions and the saudi public so the saudi attorney general who the government actually ironically sent to turkey to investigate some the murder of. Has requested that the Death Penalty be put centrally that your father should some order be put to death do you think the Death Penalty will be executed. Well did we ever. Think that those who were sent to the saudi consulate in istanbul wall executed that horrible girl some kellin of my friend. If those who killed jamal hushovd she were just rogue operatives all the header for the 3rd of that operation is still is still in force is still. Administering and management the situation in syria so i really cant expect anything finally your father is imprisoned on therefore hes unable to. Deliver a message to his many many followers but also to those who understand his importance in Saudi Society and in the region whats do you think his message would be if youre if you was able to speak now from his jail cell i think the message is to. Protect the future of the peoples and the peoples of the gulf. To his message is to to to. To defend the things that he has been defending all his life the basic rights basic liberties the the idea that islam is is moderate in nature. Is peaceful in nature and and just killing people torture in others. Put in people in jail arbitrarily will will will never help. The message will just. Well just send the message that theyre the islam that you are promoting is is a law and must clerics to preach and silence and feminists and just. A bridge in the human rights basic human rights in saudi arabia and thats not what islam is islam is protecting human rights islam is promoting the moderate voices and also islam is empowering women. Very much for the call of. The producers of mexicos most watched soap opera continue to talk of real womens issues and the audience is now reacting.

Absolutely sharing personal stories with a global audience we simply call making sacrifices this is what i want to see explore in abundance of world class programming the world is watching on aljazeera. It was a rather that you have to step over the line. A landmark moment as the u. S. President donald trump becomes the 1st sitting u. S. Leader to visit north korea. And this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up people in albania vote in disputed local elections that have divided the country pitting the president against the Prime Minister. Japan is set to resume commercial whaling but its people may have lost a case for plus. Im going to win in front of the chilean consulate in papua parole board it was chilly in the desert and this is becoming the latest flashpoint in the venezuelan migrant crisis. Now for the 1st time in history a sitting u. S. President has stepped into north korea it happened the Demilitarized Zone which separates the north and south this is their 1st face to face talks since negotiations to end pyongyangs Nuclear Program broke down in february President Donald Trump and kim jong un met for about 15 minutes at the sea and agreed to restart those talks in the coming weeks also invited him to the white house. Kim called his relationship with trump great so this meeting will have a positive effect on the future. That is. Here ive always wanted to meet you at this place as a symbol of the separation of the north and the south and remind you of the unfortunate past meeting at such a place shows that we are willing to put an end to the unfortunate past and also open a new future to provide positive opportunities in the future. Or speaking just after their meeting dawn trump said he hopes a deal can be done with north korea and working level talks will take place we just had a very very good meeting with chairman kim and weve agreed there were each going to a designated team and the team will try and work out some details and again speed is not the object we want to see if we can do a really comprehensive good deal. Nobody knows how things turn out but certainly this was a great day this was a very legendary very historic day. Lets go to robin bright his life for us in sol so we had that historic handshake had those historic moments there what happens next in the process of reestablishing talks now rob. Exactly yeah well the historical legendary as donald trump puts it certainly you did visit to the d. N. C. Seems to be a rite of passage for any us president and his previous ss of all done the same but as you mentioned theyre the 1st president to cross over into the d. M. Z. The 1st to lead serving president and the history not lost on donald trump himself hes almost been given a running commentary throughout this whole sundays afternoon between the different parts the different photo sprays the handshakes smiles and of course the handshake itself it was almost as though it was a cliffhanger made for Television Episode that we have been watching and at times donald trump has been talking about this all being taking place of course because of his personal involvement inheriting as he called it a fiery mess and ending up with the kind of pleasantries the unmik ability that we are seeing at the moment but what does happen next is contingent in some part on probably one of the more important parts of the afternoon that this was the behind the door session between trump and kim for up to an hour when they were power as we know alone with their interpreters maybe finding a way forward that will make some people nervous what may have been promised on either side that the 2 sides may have to live up to it remains to be seen exactly what they discussed but it does now go to these working level teams from both sides its always been known that if this was to be progress forward that you have to get into the detail and the nitty gritty you have to leave it up to lower level or lower lower officials rather than this just relying on this top down approach but interestingly we heard there from that donald trump that he may be open to the possibility of relieving relieving some of the sanction pressure during those negotiations that remains to be seen sammy. Sol has played a role in all of this shed some light for us. Certainly. The president of south korea this has been a big success his credibility has been damaged in recent weeks and months with the collapse of the hand on the summit and he has taken a lot of heat especially from north korea who seem to be disappointed that he hasnt been able to deliver hasnt been able to be the intermediary with the u. S. As he has promised but characteristically moon j. N. Has been on the sidelines this afternoon left it for donald trump to go out there in the puntland jam and shake hands he has left it for donald trump to take all the praise in fact throughout this whole of the sunday in any news conferences in any event president has basically said this is all down to President Donald Trump. Thanks to President Trump this historic meeting has taken place now id like to pay tribute to the creative and bold approach that the president has demonstrated and all sorts through his meeting today we are in the process of achieving denuclearization and Permanent Peace i believe we have been able to go over a big hurdle and this has actually presented a big call for the Korean People and for the whole world. Moving once again talking about this process of denuclearization as though it is well underway and more skeptical people will ask what do you clear as asian as of this date to now we have seen north korea give up nothing of its Nuclear Arsenal so we now get something of a reality check once the giddiness today sunday passes we get into the working level of these 2 working level meetings to see what they can come up with and dealing with some very thorny issues all of the problems that they have they have encountered in the past a lot of made the talks fail they have to now get down and see if they can clear those things away this time. Or it will leave it there thanks so much from bryant well don trump isnt the 1st sitting u. S. President to visit the militarized zone for u. S. Leaders before him have gone there Ronald Reagan being the 1st in one 1803. 00 the d. M. Z. Separates north korea and south korea running 250 kilometers long its a virtual no mans land for the fight on both sides. 2 leaders are meeting is known as the truce village it was designated as one place where officials from both sides can meet. So a woman who is a publisher at the korea expose a Current Affairs and news magazine expose he joins us now on skype from stuttgart in germany so 1st of all are you optimistic about the prospect of this work seems to these 2 working groups are going to start meeting that they can actually overcome some of the issues that led to the breakdown before yes absolutely i think this is a positive sign for the relations and for the denuclearization process lets not forget that after what was likely perceived to be failure in annoying vietnam the negotiations had come to a virtual standstill and it certainly required a kind of momentum or push that could really only come from top level go shushan or meeting and this is in fact what has happened today with mr trump going to the d. M. Z. And meeting mr chen the south korean government certainly has been hard at work trying to make this happen although many people say that this meeting seemed quite on unprecedented signs point to the fact that there has been a lot of work going on behind the scene and president more that south korea certainly has been extending invitation to mr trump to comment visit south korea after the g 20 summit in japan which would likely entail a visit to the d. M. Z. And this is of course the place where mr william so met with mr kim twice in the past paving the way for the possibility for this meeting that took place so this. It seems that there is an issue though of busy busy how to make the process of do new pariahs they should and work alongside with the process of removing sanctions do you see the possibility for compromise on the u. S. Side. Well mr trump certainly has hinted that hes willing to give some concession especially on the sanctions front and thats exactly what north korea is looking for. In hanoi i think it was made very clear what the 2 sides are looking for north korea desperately crave some kind of relief from the economic condition that its suffering from today u. S. Made it clear that they were not willing to give it until north korea really really made steps to dismantle their Nuclear Program with that awareness in mind i think to size iraq closer in coming to some kind of agreement the question is what form will that take we need to know all dead before mr trump met with mr kim actually when jane accompanied mr truong to that the embassy and was heard explaining the importance of the case on Industrial Complex the joint Economic Venture between the 2 koreas and this is something that south koreas been pushing for as a key tool creating the next step in the negotiation process because its something that predates the sanctions that have been imposed in north korea in the recent years and this is something that actually could give north korea some kind of financial lifeline and maybe even insensitive to engage more seriously with the negotiation or i will leave it there for now thanks so much for your thoughts. Of President Trump is now the Osan Air Base to address u. S. Troops there in the hague at life because after this hell head back to washington d. C. 3 of some other news now the polls have opened that albanias local elections by the opposition is refusing to take part the socialist Prime Minister called the elections but the president and his Democratic Party allies oppose it they want a nationwide ballot instead of 5000 polling stations have been prepared john survivalists reports from the suburbs of tirana. Government workers a setting up a Voting Center at abraham rugova high school incomes are this is a safe seat for the opposition but it isnt fielding a candidate because its boycotting local elections nationwide the Democratic Party accuses the government of corruption and wants a general election instead its demanding the resignation of socialist Prime Minister. This is the culmination of months of opposition protests against alleged government corruption that have also seen the main opposition parties walk out of Parliament President has canceled sundays elections saying they will damage albanians image as it prepares to begin membership talks with the European Union president canceled the polls but the government is proceeding regardless many albanians regard that as unconstitutional and legal challenges are expected to lower upon the only thing that can remove me from the office is peoples fault and not the decision of the Political Party we are not in north korea we are no longer under communism i shall not recognize these elections. This tough line from the Democratic Party led many of its supporters to try and prevent Voting Centers from being set up in the 24 cities the opposition controlled. In the city of scada police dispersed protesters with tear gas police are now keeping Voting Centers under good incomes to prevent further incidents this municipality has a special status for the opposition it is a Democratic Party stronghold on the outskirts of tehran a which is socialist dominated in the past 23 years the socialists have held it only once in 2000 when the democrats again abstained from the electoral process Democratic Party leader. Says hes asking his supporters to remain calm but could lose control of them. Albanians are shocked by the non reaction of International Community to mr imus now proved connections to organized crime for which he gave power in 2017 this is a very dangerous situation and it could potentially lead to civil unrest social unrest come monday if there is not a clear condemnation of the farce that has already happened. You talks have already been postponed for 6 months it felt pain is political crisis deepens political leaders worry that it could put those talks of for years jumpstart up plus aljazeera comes.
