Well so far the military has agreed to demands from the opposition to release prisoners and restore the internet the go see asians collapsed last month after Security Forces raided a sit in killing at least 100. 00 people sedans Opposition Leader madani of us mother on the line the conditions of the talks. Any negotiation has to start from the points that we cannot agree on and it is one main point the Transitional Council it is the point regarding the head of the council because both sides agreed to a civilian majority it was suggested 8. 00 to 7. 00 and it was then adjusted to 5. 00 and 5. 00 plus one and that would be 6 civilians and 5 military. We also said that there has to be a deadline to these negotiations we suggest 72 hours the sudanese people and we dont have the space to keep dragging these endless negotiations. Silliman baldo is a policy adviser on saddam for the enough project a genocide Prevention Organization and a former director of the said on democracy 1st stripy joins us now on skype from the jersey thank you so much mr bond for joining us today i just from your point of view where do you think things stand with these negotiations. Or simply it is cautious optimism and we put in the long term of the thought but. Taking the word of the streets these people who are sitting i think today if you know what we call mission of mercy where theres not a cancer thats why i keep him on the has to be in it but. What if the only grants investigation into the killing of Peaceful Protesters when you throughout the months is from somebody. More than 200 People Killed under almost a power than in your community separate medical Community Party and military guards and its done. Well of all of these. Especially in our house only. Stipulation about the principle and how i likely do you think that will be is the military and what is the sense of do they have to agree to be censured and to agree to be punished almost in the eyes of of the worlds they have any incentive to meet those demands well it is a lot of pressure coming from the. Therefore the stocks are not you know by not the last. Party talks with the population being really clear message of course no theyre not going to accept a government by a warlord an army that has been compromised to unleash a force and therefore it is continuing to protest you serve the purpose today only for those of from high schools right of course or than i thought people in our off work list from other news in our course the. Downs that are now what is the steelers in the states is supposed to go into another 1000000 person march if you live here in the last night the population will mix with ungovernable for the foundation of military council unless it concedes an independent investigation and a full and meaningful Response Rate of power to see really a move that it appears and good but the leadership of this but this year is several interesting points there id like to pick up on the 1st what do you notice a year of saying that this is almost a tripartite negotiation because they also have to take into account the views of the street but i mean with so many people involved how do you nineteens are the opposition these protesters and those who are negotiating with the military are we starting to see some splintering at all or do you think they can keep this united front. Well there even on the. Do it the population of the Grassroots Movement for modesty justice and peace in sudan and i get really really close. To Political Leadership that is the expression of these protests that it has opted for a lot of intimidation because of so many people or really not a Monster Mission difference of appreciation of dark lives of course choose the military Council Rather than have.

Have to they that are in force over thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with us here on aljazeera. The leaders of the Ethiopian Community in israel have agreed to end the recent violent protests against Police Brutality demonstrations began in response to the killing of an 18 year old Ethiopian Israeli who was shot by an off Duty Police Officer on sunday the officer said he was trying to break up of fights but witnesses said he started the altercation with happy days of protest and violence with Police Across israel the officer has been arrested its the parents of the victim solomon tika say they want peaceful protests to continue along with and i want the demonstrations to keep going but not violently until they charge the policeman who shot him a limit of what we believe violence should be solved with violence i only support there and nonviolence demonstrations because we are all demonstrating to stop the violence while barretts breath is live for us in just south of tel aviv bernard weve seen there have been calls for a process to continue it may seem a bit calmer but whats the general atmosphere like in israel after these events. Well i think weve got an indication of the sort of wrong thats been touched here by what the minister of internal security said this afternoon after visiting the parents of the solomon ticket he said that israel has a racism problem he said it is not just with the police it is inside every person in all of the ministries and is the job of every person to work on the racism inside them and this is really very something thats pretty surprising to hear from minister in the likud Party Ministry one of the most right wing governments that israel has had now the Police Investigation into the shooting this is this is causing major problems for activists in the Ethiopian Community as well because the officer who shot solomon chica is being investigated by the police the activists here say thats just not going to work because they will try and protect him theyre very suspicious of the Police Investigating themselves they dont believe it will be thorough enough and indeed over the past 5 years 10. Israeli citizens of been killed by the police no Police Office has ever been charged and activists point to those figures to say they want a prosecutor externally looking into this case and bernard there is some people may see some parallels here with the the accusations of violence we often hear about the treatment of palestinians at the hands of israeli authorities but this seems to be an entirely separate but somehow similar. Event what does this reveal about the relationships between the Ethiopian Community in israel and and the rest of the communities there. Well i think a couple of the activists we spoke to over the past few days theyve said that theyve got there for years and years and years have this problem that theyre not sort of israeli or jewish enough to be accepted by the community here and people have got to recognize that they are just as much a part of this country as everybody else i mean there was a Government Commission 3 years ago into the treatment of jewish ethiopians ethiopians of jewish descent and it put forward is whole raft of recommendations this was after very widespread protests more than 3 years ago now the government says the minister of justice says most of those recommendations have been implemented thats things like having monitors for racism racist behavior inside various government ministries it means making the Police Monitor themselves more carefully stronger punishment for Police Officers whove been found guilty of extreme violence but the problem activists say is while on paper the government says these changes have been introduced in practice they havent and they are going to be paying lip service to them and that is why you still have this sort of institutionalized racism that people really need to start addressing parents not their life in rishon those young thank you very much indeed. Also more still to come on aljazeera including clinging to life colombian once missiles are struggling to cope with an influx of venezuelans needing medical help.

In a few moments are a few a few hours rather tanks troops im fighter jets will be seen on the streets skies over washington d. C. For the 1st time in 30 years as part of a military agrees cold winds will draw celebrates americas independence the thousands of troops will march to the Lincoln Memorial where the president will address the nation the spin fierce opposition to the events with protesters and politicians accusing truong of politicizing the events well our White House Correspondent Kimberly Orkut joins us now live from washington d. C. Kimberly this is the sort of imagery one would normally associate with countries like north korea why is this type of military parades taking place in the u. S. Well theres no question the President Trump has been fascinated ever since he visited and saw the best still celebrations in france see you sort of it was then that this idea sort of came to mind one that hes tried to implement one tall ready this time successfully so you know one can speculate that that is his source of inspiration but in terms of the controversy i think that is what is really the lightning rod for most americans this is typically been in a political holiday and now in a divided america this is yet another opportunity for those that support donald trump to showcase that and those that are part of the Resistance Movement that has been in place since his inauguration to voice their protest of his presidency so we expect that we will see flag burning that there will be all kinds of counter protests how big these will be is very hard to gauge but at the same time what the fear is is. Both groups descend on the National Mall here in the United States where this will be taking place that they potentially are on. A collision course on a day that typically was celebrated with barbecues and burgers and those sorts of things so theres that concern theres also the concern that this may violate whats called the hatch act that means that there is a law in the United States you cannot use federal resources for political purposes and in the midst of all of this parading is the centerpiece of a speech by donald trump and many have some issues with where this will be taking place namely the steps of the Lincoln Memorial that is the site of the 1963 march on washington where Martin Luther king delivered his i have a dream speech so its very symbolic for Many Americans and. Concern that this is some ways been politicized by donald trump who is highly attuned to producing a made for t. V. Moment is certainly bristling his critics at the same time the president himself is defending all of this he took to twitter to say this is going to be the show of the lifetime again using some of that reality t. V. Language hes so familiar with and he really seems unfazed by the criticism in fact he started his day at his golf course just outside of washington d. C. For a round of golf. Well have to leave it there for know but thank you very much indeed happy 4th of july. The north korea has accused the u. S.

When the economic crisis started in venezuela back in 2015 most of the migrants that arrive here in my cow are young and healthy looking for basic medicine or vaccines that are strange in the last couple of years and especially now in 2009 with the widespread blackouts in minute that have devastated the Health Service there almost as cluster of a there again hes ations are trying to help as cases of measles tuberculosis and malaria or on the rise.

Germanys carmakers are pushing for cleaner and greener cars its possible a wider strategy to combat Climate Change some of the industrys biggest names coming up with electric prototypes with models either in production or already on the roads that have realistic is it to maintain an electric car so when it came reports from the hard lines of germanys comic industry stuttgart. This is the e. Q. See the sadies most recent venture into the electric car market a vehicle for their green ambitions to replace fossil fueled engines says leon had given every possibility to change the recuperation notes so in some situations you want to get back the smarter energy as possible its clear the city sees aleck trick as a long Term Investment but what about Long Distance driving the traditional weakness of a Battery Powered car they were saying expensive q. C. Of us 471 kilometers of fully electric range so far more than 95 percent of every day driving this is totally sufficient of course there are distances for example if you drive from here fast approaching where this is not sufficient and therefore we have always had a standard on the car the socalled. Which allows you to chose the car in 40 minutes which is a brake you probably would do anyhow im such a distance so is that right there or not thats giving me the case lets find a half hour we can drive. As it stands the car is saying we can drive it for more than 300 kilometers before recharging many green camp i say this is not a problem because most daily journeys are only around 20 to 40 kilometers so its fine for urban driving but out here on the outer band comes the real test will be driving at high speeds. Are available right has dropped considerably which means we want to carry on driving much further to find the nearest charger. And that is another traditional shortcoming that these sorts of cars in germany a glance at this map shows the distribution of charging points right now on the face of it there appear to be very many but some people think Society Needs to think more creatively to make electric cars feasible such as providing charging points in lamp posts and other existing street furniture. Testified about 5. 00 to 1. 00 if were to this long as cobbett thought and we are convinced that it is a good solution in areas with drivers park their cars for longer periods of time we see from statistics that cars are charged where people park for longer and thats usually at home or at work and so we want to have a way for people to charge their cars close to home. The house and land. Back in the e. Q. See our 3 hours behind the wheel almost its time to head back to base the car says it can go another 200 kilometers or so manufacturers say electric power is the future of the german car industry dominant came out as era stuttgart.

We start with a diplomatic confrontation between iran and europe thats taken a dramatic turn in the past few hours iran has summer and the u. K. Some bastard are into iran over what it calls the illegal seizure over a rainy an oil tanker earlier in the day the british navy seized the vessel off the coast of japan alter the Iranian Foreign ministry has called the move. Destructive but the u. K. Says the ship was carrying on wild seas syria in violation of e. U. Sanctions well spains foreign minister says the operation was carried a tz at the request of the United States i mean that alan moores korean did a little bit naturally we were aware of this Operation Police patrol boats were guarding the area but we are studying the circumstances in which it happened it was a demand by the United States to the United Kingdom and were looking at how would a fix our sovereignty because it happened in what we understand a spanish waters well lets talk to paul brennan his say in london for us paul will work itself. Well lets talk 1st of all about the jurisdiction impacts i mean we just heard from Joseph Burrell the spanish acting foreign minister saying that as far as he was concerned it happened in spanish waters the understanding from the u. K. Point of view is that it was but 2 miles off the coast of japan which the british say is in british territorial waters and as far as the chronology of how things went the spanish say it appears that information was provided to the gibraltar in or thora seas by the americans and the gibraltar. Busy authorities then contacted London Britain asked for a contingent of Royal Marines who have specialist ship boarding skills to be sent from the u. K. Out to gibraltar in order to carry out this operation timed perfectly you might say because the footage that weve seen all of that ship the grace one is literally within i mean its in the shadow of the rock of gibraltar so if you come up the western coast of africa the contingent of roll marines have been sent out there to rendezvous effectively with that ship just in time before it sailed on out of british jurisdiction and paul does this risk making an already tense situation worse im not referring to the political or the political battles between spain and and the u. K. But the wider context this is coming at a time when the u. S. Is mounting a pressure strategy on iran and europe appears to be caught in the middle of these tea partiers. Well its certainly a delicate and sensitive time diplomatically internationally diplomatically yes tehran has summoned the British Ambassador to iran in to meet with the Foreign Ministry in tehran at the moment the last i heard was that he was still in there. And we dont know i mean what the Foreign Ministry in london is saying is that the ambassador will simply reiterate the british position which is as follows that they welcome this firm action by the tarion or thirtys acting to enforce the e. U. Serious sanctions regime but as you say of course there is a backdrop to all of this and that is the Iran Nuclear Deal in the hope by European Union members are signatories to that deal to keep the iranian economy going to keep iran sort of in the club if you like and one of the aspects of that was to try to get iran to be able to sell oil now america has come down very hard on that it. Ended the waivers that it had issued to allow a certain amount of oil to be sold by iran it firmly switched that off given the fact that this is a mess up seems to be american information that is provided the ammunition for want of a better word to intercept this ship then you can see that there is pressure is growing on the europeans as well to try to clamp down on irans movement of oil around the globe to refineries such as this syrian refinery ok paul brennan live in london thank you lets get a view from iran toss jabari has more from tehran. A strange and destructive act that is how the Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman up us mousavi is describing the latest events after the British Ambassador in tehran has called has been called to the Foreign Ministry and the meeting between the 2 has been held where the iranians have launched their complaint over this seizure of a new rainin crude oil supertanker in the strait of gibraltar now apparently this tanker called grace one was carrying crude oil to the mediterranean port city of turkey to sit in syria where it was seized on its way on thursday morning apparently at the request of the United States the tankers destination was the funniest oil refinery which has been under edu sanctions since 2011 but iran does not recognize those sanctions as a legitimate since they are not endorsed by the United Nations thats according to the Foreign Ministry spokesperson he also says that this will certainly escalate tensions in the region and he stressed that iran will not accept this act so were expecting some very very strong reaction in the coming hours and days or over what iran will see as a very hostile act towards its Oil Shipments in the strait of gibraltar.
