The medical workers in libyas capital working under dangerous conditions. I know e. U. Does have agreed on who will get the blocks top jobs after days of stalemate and negotiations European Council president donald tusk made the announcement a short time ago in brussels germanys funder lion has been named as the next European Commission president belgian Prime Minister Sharon Sharon is the European Council president spains foreign minister who is a thorough has been chosen as the top diplomat the high representative for Foreign Affairs and i. M. F. Chief Christine Legarde has been proposed the president of the European Central bank. A decision comes after days of talks in brussels but Council President dont to us because warned the names may not be endorsed by the e. U. Parliament this is right we have Parliament Time to debate or discuss to argue. And then to decide certain. But i hope that of the political leaders not on the Prime Minister Prime Minister that will do everything to do to convince our colleagues in the parliament to. Support this. Project thats going on now to nadeem brussels as surprising are these names. Well i think whats more surprising is the speed at which they suddenly were announced because one of those names the. What some people call the jewel in the crown the presidency of the European Commission going to the lion as you were saying thats been rumored for most of choose day. Seen as an experienced. Politician back home in germany but also shes well known as germanys defense minister around the continent and shes of the same grouping as chancellor merkel herself the the sense of rights the he. The other the question marks were over how far the center left would be included because as the talks started on sunday the leader one of the far right of then was france timmermans the dutch labor leader but hes proved proved just too divisive particularly unpopular with the leaders of poland hungary the Czech Republic and slovakia the socalled visit grads. For and in fact very b. Now in the government of hungary have been claiming in the last few hours that very money to topple. As a candidate for the top job and to topple munfordville. Who was rumored to be in the running for the presidency of the commission as well so perhaps not surprising but there is there there is an inclusion there for the the social democrats but what were hearing from donald tusk is that the plan for the nomination for who heads the European Parliament would be for the 1st half of the next for that person to come from the socialists and Democrats Group and then for the 2nd half for an e. P. Paid member to to head the parliament up presumably he says manfred verba. But crucially as you just heard from donald tusk its not a done deal and he is of hes not just im preparing us for some kind of push back i think is a real prospect now that there could be some kind of position in that European Parliament. Thank you very much indeed. Meanwhile the new intake of members of the European Parliament have been sworn in as lawrence lee has more from strasburg. Here comes trouble and its name is the brics it party it is now the Biggest Single Party in the European Parliament and as such is the best representation of how this institution is in flux as just one example has already threatened to help vote down the e. U. Budgets and it doesnt like the way that europe does deal with the whole way the Group Systems work again very undemocratic you know you have to tie up with people in 7 other countries and you know if you are leaving and everybody else wants to stay then theres no sense and thats of great interest. They certainly started as they mean to go on turning their backs in the chamber during the inauguration ceremony as the european anthem was played. So there are new fault lines everywhere outside a big catalan demonstration in protest against spain for blocking their leader. From taking his seat inside. And across the floor of the chamber new lights wing populists viewed with fear and suspicion by the Establishment Center writes while over on the left surging greens and liberals many wearing yellow stop t. Shirts are just as keen on the lights this is not politics as usual were all out there doing our social media and its getting a lot more attention than it did before and weve got more journalists coming here as well and everything that raises the profile of european politics and helps people to understand that crucial is to be part of the legal changes that made it which it really were leading the world in terms of legislation that protects people on the planet everything that can help that is a good thing so by the traditionally been the standards of strasburg this promises to be an argumentative European Parliament with little sign that politicians are prepared simply to rubber stamp decisions that have been made by the European Commission in brussels the proponents of political stability in europe will say. That thats messy you could just as well argue that its democracy in action. There m. E. P. Is and usually you get a shrug of the shoulders many of them are accused of using this place as a get rich quick vehicle making alliances for political expediency as much as for progress maybe the angry mood among europeans will add a level of transparency and relevance to this place lawrence lee aljazeera in strasbourg i speak to julian who has used a policy analyst at the think tank the vocal europe thanks for being with us so that the have managed to come up with their midst of names but as just pointing out the parliament might not endorse them how likely is it the parliament would vote against this package of names on honestly we can never quite solve what exactly is going to happen because in effect you have to consider whether the parliament is going to take his duties as the parliament very seriously which in some cases of opi is it will take incredibly seriously and try to effectively move back towards a very moved back to nordstrom and moans maybe even towards the those on the originals and candidates candidates for all day despite the confusion surrounding that choice its all depends on what happens next and how likely so its a wings are to sport this for example from what ive seen of all of these candidates are all very much liberals theyre all very much i have to the left of center or very slightly to the right of center and plans entirely on what the choices are within the parliaments and what were going to show actions happen overnight and throughout the course of this evening that one of the things that is how to get itself under law and by people who people in europe who dont like the idea of a more federalist europe or things like kind of moving towards a European Army and those kind of ideas they are already sort of using the federalist word in a in a kind of insulting way rather than a polite way. Yes of course and i mean in. Regards to people like the briggs of arts you know if you look at the europeans for the american moxie or the i did i dont stereo and wing of you in parliament youll see that theyll all regardless of what happens there like its take that sort of stance and try to spin whatevers happening. In regards to being more federalist in it regards to being more supranational demagogues thing it being an appointment that would remove people and remove power from the nation states and move it towards European Union thats going to happen regardless of whos chosen even available was chosen many people have probably said all hes working for europe is not working for the people hes not working for the people who elected him hes not working for us so therefore hes a federalist he is the enemy its like it happened regardless how damaging is it they fear to not be able to come up with an agreement on these. Top jobs that easily and to put you know theres lots of horse training on all the problem is that a lot of what happens for example National Politics look at what happens in england or france or even scotland which is reputed to be a high of the highest kind of democracy that action theres a lot of horse trading that happens regardless and behind the busy scenes for out on an entry man that for out president ial mandates it all depends on the circumstances of the current political situation do your opinion of course is very specific in that it has 27. 00 nations those 20 currently would u. K. That make up the totality of the decisions and therefore there is going to be a slight bit more friction would just be a Single National country however i dont think its damaging insofar as it would be damaging if the European Parliament chose instead to say you know were going to stick by this its income the dots process but once and for sato it choice of candidates emigrants and make sure that the council effectively handles its own duty and leaves the selection of these roles to us is also damaging that heads of states are pushing the preference forward themselves because in effect the council has a right to do this according to the legislature it all depends on how it spun by whatever party however of course the ideal city. Is that they select someone quickly they fill the top for alls and if we look at the names they are all very qualified people theyve all held office theyve all worked in high stress situations theyve all busy go shoot it through crises so in effect it will depends on how busy combative the parliament is feeling right now where many m. P. s is an 80 story and decide to go from it ok julian who is thank you very much indeed here for what you. We have more from london in the region for now its back to rachelle in doha arent thank you very much so china has condemned the actions or protesters in hong kong and its harshest word since huge crowds began taking to the streets on months ago they call the storming of the Legislative Council building a blatant challenge to the one country 2 systems bottom line and say we express our hemant condemnation against this that once inside the legislative chamber protesters unfurled a british era colonial flag over the speakers podium they also defaced the territorys official seal the anniversary sparked by yet another huge march the 3rd and a matter of weeks and half a 1000000 people packed the streets protesting not just the controversial extradition bill but also the governments response so we began our coverage with this report from katrina and beijing. This is the hong kong the Chinese Government wanted the world to see celebrations marking the 22nd anniversary of its return to the chinese motherland instead peace with the scenes broadcast around the world dismissed by beijing as a little more than violent mobs pushing but it says is a blatant challenge to the one country 2 systems rule its strongest words yet. Are you finding that what happened in hong kong violently striking in. In the damaging facilities is an act of law violating social order is a serious a law breaking behavior. The communist party has condemned this Legislative Council and its full support behind chief executive kerry land government its backing a Police Investigation into the criminal responsibility of those involved on monday night saying offenders move field before force of the law. The Chinese Government are continuing to play down the takeover of hong kongs column and calling it the illegal behavior of a group of radicals but the intensity of the protest have no doubt such time as leadership and pundits and questions as to why so many who are resisting they genes control they see or perceive that somehow beijing is over reaching that its violating what they perceive as the spirit or the agreement that was in the handover from beijings point of view theyre protecting their people and their country for now from Chinese State media a familia party line continuing to protest will only undermine social order and harm hong kong. Beijing is watching closely waiting to see of Hong Kong Government is able to stamp out the unrest if not it may bring with these protesters fear the more stuff more controlled from the mainland chinese you aljazeera beijing and you told us as a way to us from hong kong. Is there outside the Legislative Council building which is now out of the control of the place but 24 hours ago was fully under the control of the protesters who were surrounding this building and then broke their way and now its pouring with rain on choose day night had this rainfall and on monday night then perhaps it would have played at the protests before the Police Needed to in the numbers that they date but it was a falling knife on monday had been hot all day and off the 1516 hours in that hot sun many protesters just couldnt contain themselves any longer smash their way into this building now you see all of this blue and white plastic thats covering huge and very thick windows or what was the windows until they were all smashed in and it took many hours of battering not gloss for the protest and to get in over the course of tuesday the police have been clearing out the streets the debris all around this building but also in saw it this building has significant damage wrought from the ground floor up to and including the debating chamber itself in the place of being in there all day bringing out all the loads of what theyre calling evidence things that they can use to prosecute protesters who broke in i dont like to stage now you can see the place of guarding the door they plan to work through the night bringing out more and more things that they think can help with prosecutions because carol on the chief executive has said that that is now what is going to happen people who broke in there all violent criminals she says and they are going to face court. Frances president calling on iran to immediately reduce its enriched uranium reserves and Nuclear Watchdog confirmed tehran is stockpiling more enriched uranium than is allowed under the 2015 nuclear deal. Speaker says u. S. Pressure is only making the country stronger. And more should be. Americas problem is that they dont know the middle east of the iranian nation and they think if they deploy some warships to the region they can suppress the determination of a nation but iranians have shown they have unified will trump should realize that a civilized nation will get more united when they are bullied if they understand that many problems would be so understanding it needs wisdom is also about war has more from paris. Now according to european diplomatic sources britain france and germany the 3 european signatories to the 2015 iran deal are really intent on trying to diffuse the situation after iran exceeded its uranium limits these diplomatic sources also say that these 3 powers are not going to trigger a special mechanism that was in shrine in the 2015 a deal which would lead to the reimposition or u. N. Sanctions on iran the focus clearly for european powers is to try and persuade to tehran to continue to comply with the deal earlier in the day we heard from the french president amount of virus statement that was released by the lease a in which mark was calling on iran to reverse the steps its taken to exceed its uranium linnen limits its also urging tehran to comply with the deal saying that president bankroll really focus on the next few days on doing everything he can to make sure that this deal survived is something we also heard from the British Foreign minister there is a clear desire on behalf of the europeans to continue to fight for this deal as they have done so ever since the United States pulled out and we impose sanctions last year. Helped oversee the implementation of the iran deal at the u. S. State department under president barack obama hes now a senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace joins us from washington d. C. Thank you very much for your time so. Is our correspondent there is trying to persuade iran to tamp down these iranian levels persuade them by what means what what reason would they have to do that. So the joint commission which is the diplomatic body that oversees the joint comprehensive plan of action met in vienna last friday and the statement that emerged from that meeting and the readouts that came from the diplomats i think suggests the kind of deal that europe and the other participants are trying to broker to get iran back into compliance and that in rough terms would be china buying oil europe completing the establishment of its instep Financial Mechanism and putting some capital into the mechanism so that iran can make european purchases some solution that allows the wrong to export these Nuclear Commodities so low enriched uranium and heavy water below the tritium theyve already exceeded the stockpile of the heavy water theyre close and then finally further expressions of Political Support such as maybe a meeting of Foreign Ministers of the joint Commission Countries whether all of those things are possible whether in the end they would be sufficient to bring iran back into compliance i think those are the open questions but there is a very there that the europeans are trying to get to. Does it is it seems to me that the Trump Administration actually wants to get to a deal well i think the Trump Administration certainly does not want our european allies and partners to get to the deal that theyre trying to broker which is really to keep the g. C. On life support and see what happens next whether the Trump Administration actually wants to deal with iran i think its pretty complicated and President Trump himself i believe would probably be satisfied with just more pageantry north korea. There are a number of senior officials in the Top Administration who would probably like a deal but set conditions which are impossible to meet and then i think that there are some of ministration officials who are who would prefer a crisis to a negotiation. How much longer how much longer might this drag on and how much worse can it get or canada exists and is gray area any longer. Well i think that this the life support could drag on potentially as long as the next u. S. President ial election if the europeans russians chinese and iranians make some smart decisions or to allow it to do so the current condition of iran being out of compliance probably could not drug out nearly that long. The Current Situation you ask could it get worse and the answer is unequivocally yes iran could do much more provocative Dangerous Things in its Nuclear Program and of course as we saw even just a couple of weeks ago the possibility of an uncontrolled military escalation between the United States and iran remains very much a lot of blank we really appreciate your expertise on this thank you plenty more head in the news hour and clearing out share long term Police Arrest their own chief as well as the countrys former defense secretary. And mediators for the crisis in sudan call for an immediate return to the negotiating table. And support the reigning little champion has got the defense of her title off to a winning start to. Listen to long to how the rest of their Top Commander over his failure to stop the Easter Sunday bombings which killed 258. 00 people who jaya sentara and former defense secretary emissary fernando have been charged after prosecutors said their negligence amounts to crimes against humanity and now fernandez has more from colombo. The arrest of the former defense secretary and the police chief comes as no major surprise even though people are still grappling with the fact that under the president s direction the Law Enforcement have gone this far north that both these individuals appeared before the Parliamentary Select Committee on the Easter Sunday bombings and had some pretty damning things to say basically the former defense secretary had said that he hardly had the opportunity to sit down with the president the police chief also talking about the fact that he had been locked out of National Security Council Meetings but basically yesterday we had a pointer when the attorney general wrote to the acting police chief bearing in mind that the police chief himself has been sent on compulsory leave by the president who couldnt remove him given the constitution but that letter from the attorney general did talk about the fact that negligence on the do do is part which would lead to the Easter Sunday bombings he said they could be considered under International Law as having committed grave crimes against humanity the attorney general also listed a whole series of the clauses under the penal code where they could be charged or that they had violated including sort of committing murder committing sort of death through negligence and a number of such basically crimes urging the criminal Investigation Department to arrest them so both of these individuals early this morning admitted them serves in 2 different hospitals the Standard Operating Procedure interlochen politics when youre wanted by the police or the courts. And despite them being admitted you have the criminal Investigations Department and dispatching teams to the hospitals placing both of them under arrest the magistrate visited both of them and they have been arrested.

And china is calling overnight protests in hong kong a blatant challenge to the one country 2 systems principle thats the strongest condemnation from beijing since protesters stormed the citys main government building. Theres been mixed reaction in hong kong to mondays takeover and vandalization of the Legislative Council the government is vowing to take action against those who broke into the building when hey reports from hong kong. The center of power in hong kong is now a crime scene the Legislative Council of its parliament is in disarray after antigovernment protesters broke in on monday nights the morning after the Violence Police began investigating the incident which may result in protesters being charged for trespassing and vandalism those who usually work here still coming to terms with what happened they got high so young this is a place for hong kong people it is a symbol of legislation even though people including the youngsters have different opinions they have no right to cause damage to the Legislative Council i think we should all protect this council its a place to discuss politics not a place for fighting hours after the riot police dispersed the rally a cleanup operation also began work is cleared piles of debris left behind as protesters made a quick retreat the latest rally came to an end amid clouds of tear gas and charging police the catalyst for the crackdown was the decision by protesters to force their way into the government building it came after a much larger peaceful antigovernment march earlier in the day organizers said more than half a 1000000 people came out on the 22nd anniversary of the handover of hong kong from Great Britain to china they want hong kongs chief executive to resign and for a controversial extradition build to be withdrawn. They see the bill which would allow criminal suspects to be sent to Mainland China for trial as another sign of beijings increasing control over hong kong as the Police Investigation continues here the debate is only really just beginning about the decision by protesters to burst into this building causing so much damage along the way and whether it will turn Public Opinion against the antigovernment movements even some supporters of the protesters believe it was a mistake but they say it has to be viewed in the broader context of what theyre trying to achieve why this town people. So this is respectful to the legislature it is because it cannot represent the voice of the people the people of hong kong is still trying to digest what happened here the protesters grab everyones attention with directions but they still havent achieved their goals increasing the possibility of more violence on the streets when hey Al Jazeera Hong Kong 14 russian sailors have died after a fire broke out on board a deep water submarine for more waycross now to taylor and london. Russias Defense Ministry says the fire broke out while the sailors were carrying out a survey of the sea floor the deep Sea Research Vessel is based in several at russias northeastern edge the Defense Ministry says the deaths were caused by poisonous gases from fumes Russian Media reporting a submarine was Nuclear Power and a step back in is live for us in moscow. Well or in the formation is still pretty sketchy after the ministry of defense announced publicly that this accident has happened yesterday on monday basically what happened is that the president immediately after that announcement made public also that he had canceled his previous schedule and has had an emergency meeting basically with the ministry of defense with go and now after this meeting the president announced that he has ordered the minister of defense immediately go to the location the base of the Northern Fleet to oversee the investigation and look at a closer look at what acts actually has happened with this deep sea vehicle which has been used for this what they call a survey of the sea bottom but its all very sketchy because on the other hand theres also reports that this vehicle could be some kind of spice submarine its called an a s 12. Rick deep sea Nuclear Submarine which is basically used also or can be used for spying activities on the bottom of to see basically what it can do is that it can sort of cut off the internet and major communication lines in case of a global conflict so the United States has expressed concerns about the use of this kind of submarine we still dont have the confirmation that is it this is the exact submarine the investigation is still ongoing to present as all of this urgent inquiry into how this fire could have happened you mentioned briefly that is not the 1st time weve seen a Russian Submarine fire how different is the president s response been. Well pretty different of course as we all know this very famous. Accident in 2000 this was basically in the beginning of president putins presidency and his response was completely accused of being too late and in effect if and also of keeping the media out of the loop people said he was covering up exactly what has happened there also far too late for Internet International assistance so maybe people on board could have been rescued before so that today its a very different story he did reschedule his appointments and make sure that immediately the minister has been sent to the area where the accident has happened and will oversee the investigation and we still dont know when we can expect any announcements of what exactly caused the accident i dont know we. Ministry has also announced that so far there hasnt been any radiation leaks because of course theres been a lot of speculation of this being Nuclear Powered but sophia there is no sign of any any red you radiation from that area stephanie thank you very much lead.
