Would predict one thing trump will either take an action or explain that the saudis asked him not to you know have some sort of way out but hes not just going to let this lie as he did in previous occasions because the hit was so devastating to the short term Saudi Oil Production well it looks like there have been some divisions within the trumpet ministration because when when john bolton left it looks like the u. S. Stance on iran might have been softening and there was talk of a trump Rouhani Meeting at the at the u. N. General assembly but now trump is also saying hes tweeted this morning that its incorrect he was willing to meet iran with no conditions so has something shifted here. Its hard to tell certainly if one thing shifted trump is not going to signal to anyone right now that hes willing to meet with iran at all and certainly that makes sense given this moment and given that trump is looking for Foreign Policy successes in the 5th means he can do a strike without over escalating this conflict he might do it but in terms of the overall posture the u. S. Has been wanting to arrange some sort of meeting with iran at the u. N. General assembly and it was really interesting that today and yesterday u. S. Officials were saying that this meeting is not off even though trump is saying that the meetings not on and of course his representative on fox news was saying we just dont know trump will tell us later and so i think trump likes the idea of both taking act military actions against but also meeting with u. S. Adversaries its sort of in his wheel house of what he thinks he can accomplish as president but it will be interesting to see going forward. How that becomes possible certainly if trump takes a Strong Military action that would rule out probably any meeting in new york other than to just try to deescalate the latest military confrontations. From George Washington university if its called of International Affairs thank you feel inside professor pleasure. Well our correspondent also jabari has the view on all of this from tehran. Iranian president Hassan Rouhani commented on the latest accusations made by the Us Government that iran was involved in the attacks in saudi arabia has on iran he said that the United States instead of pointing the finger at other countries needs to take a look at its own role in creating this instability in this region lonnie said that the United States is supplying arms to saudi arabia and the emirates he Led Coalition that is waging this war in yemen he urged all parties that the way to resolve this conflict and have some kind of stability in this region these suits were dialogue their reunion said over and over again that theyre willing to mediate between all the parties involved to bring some kind of an end to this conflict iranian president Hassan Rouhani has also said in the past that these kinds of accusations only further ties between tehran and washington do not help to create any kind of dialogue between the 2 countries that is something the u. S. President donald trump a sudden hes interested in having a meeting with the iranian president at the United Nations later this month but given the current climate and the accusations that have been coming at the rate in officials it is very unlikely that president Hassan Rouhani will be open to that kind of meeting until these sanctions are lifted on iran and that these kinds of behavior that iran says has been waged them is changed for the time being. Theres plenty more ahead on this news hour including rebuilding the bahamas between operation resumes and the islands battered by both the Tropical Storm and hurricane.

Now ballots are being counted in tunisia after nearly hoth of registered voters turned out to choose their countrys next president official results on to expected until tuesday but supporters of the 2 candidates. Have both claimed to have won the 1st round and already celebrating sundays for it was too noisy a 2nd president ial election since the 2011 revolution Stephanie Deca reports from tunis. Half an hour before voting was due to start a small queue had already formed tunisians waiting to have their say on who is going to be their next president. I came here to vote in order to get someone who can get this country out of the crisis the economic crisis the financial crisis we have lots of debts its very frustrating for me im not fully convinced about any of the candidates because there are so many and i havent seen them from the beginning its the 2nd time tunisians are electing their president since the revolution 8 years ago tunisia is often quoted as the only democratic Success Story to come out of the socalled arab spring the 1st country where its people took to the streets bringing an end to the 23 year rule of president saying. This is democracy in action yes there are many different candidates to choose from but the question is what can they offer to people are they going to offer real change or is the next president going to be more of the same voters here are telling us theyre tired of empty promises. The next president is pressing issues to deal with unemployment is higher than it was before the 2011 revolution the security situation is a concern and corruption remains rampant the new leader will face a population hungry for change especially the youths many have told us they dont trust the politicians to move these elections are a good thing its the 1st time weve had a debate on t. V. With our president ial candidates we used to watch the debates on t. V. The United States and now were watching the same thing here in tunisia thats the 1st. National and International Observers were polling stations across the country we knew. People but interestingly we saw many elderly coming in very in the morning and being very well organized and there has been no issues and so so far. Good which is hoping that by no the young people would have come on world only increase the percentage of luminary results that you later with the official announcement dont choose day the winning candidate will need more than 50 percent of the vote and no one expects that to happen the likely scenario out of 24 candidates the top 2 will head to a runoff in november by the end of the day tunisian should know who they are Stephanie Decker 0 tunis.

Workers and u. S. Automaker General Motors are due to go on strike on monday for more than for the 1st time in more than a decade 48000. 00 people are expected to walk off the job at 31 factories across the country the United Auto Workers union is pushing for better wages Health Benefits and job security guarantees and theyve threatened to stay on strike until an agreement is reached the talks to continue on monday well earlier we spoke to Michael Martinez who is a reporter for Automotive News which is based in detroit and he says workers are demanding a greater share of profits and explains how the strike will impact General Motors is. It could cripple g. M. If the strike lasts long enough currently the automaker has been preparing for some type of action and they have a 77 days supply of new vehicles on hand that number fluctuates depending on what the able youre talking about and theyre more profitable more popular at c. V. S. And trucks they have a lower days supply in the fiftys but if this drags on and then it essentially means they cant build any products dealers wont be able to sell those new products because there wont be anything there this is a very significant action its sort of the last resort that the union has in the gauche asians that have reached an impasse and we dont know yet what the impact will be on General Motors it depends on how long the strike last but workers in less than 10 hours now will leave the Assembly Lines and form picket lines outside of all jails facilities workers are looking for higher wages theyre looking for retention of very lucrative Health Care Benefits that theyve been able to keep. Theyre looking for a greater share of the profits that General Motors ford and chrysler have been able to amass over the years and theyre also looking for protection for temporary workers to try to find a way for them to reach full time permanent status as the u. S. Congress continues to debate possible gun control measures texas has moved in the opposite direction making guns more accessible and thats despite 2 Mass Shootings in the cities of el paso and adesa an organist alone how does a pastor has more from mission in texas. Last months 2 Mass Shootings in texas took at least 29 lives. And here at the Mission Skeet and trap club the incidents have apparently driven up business its gone up extremely yes maam the shooting range manager jeff simpson says the number of people who have come to practice shooting to qualify for a license to carry a concealed handgun in texas has more than doubled what do you think is behind that. Its people that are. Hoping to protect ourselves simpson says he is a prime example he says last week he had to use his gun to scare off several adult male migrants here near the mexico border who wanted to take his phone i carry a gun. All the time that im here so i didnt pointed out i pulled it out i did my paulding i didnt chamber it i didnt pull it out but it made them leave me alone since the reason Mass Shootings in texas its actually become easier to legally own and carry guns in this state 8 progun new laws passed prior to those shootings took effect this month they include allowing guns in School Parking lots apartments and churches Texas Governor greg abbott a conservative republican responded to the latest Mass Shootings with executive orders to increase Police Training and Public Awareness he rejected calls from democrats for more gun control this is absolutely the wrong direction for us to take its going to be measured in the lives lost not in the lives saved but it was a gun carrying Good Samaritan who ended the 2017 attack on a church in Sutherland Springs texas an armed bystander chased away the shooter after he killed 25 people but before he could kill more. At the shooting range members say owning a gun requires discipline and practice but even here there is support for removing weapons from people who. More likely to use them to cause harm to drop people feel theyre safe by just having what thats not the case texas has the most registered guns of any state more than 700000 whether that makes texas safer or more dangerous is still unclear.

Hello again im just. A reminder of our top stories this hour saturdays drone attacks on Saudi Oil Facilities have triggered a record jump in brant crude futures trading u. S. President says hes authorized the release of oil from americas Strategic Reserves to fill the market gap if needed and. Also he says the u. S. Is quote locked and loaded waiting for a confirmation of attack to riyadh soil facilities secretary of state has already accused iran for the attacks that have been claimed by yemen through the rebels tehran has denied involvement. And ballot papers are being counted in tunis he is president ial election official results on the expected until tuesday but supporters of the 2 candidates on the bill carter we who have both claims to have won the 1st round already celebrating sundays fighters. Well thats now return to our top story the effect of drone attacks on saudi arabias Oil Infrastructure thats now caused the biggest sudden disruption yet to Global Oil Markets earlier i spoke to vanda hari whos the founder and c. E. O. Of Energy MarketAnalysis Group found the insights and she says the lack of information released by saudi arabia is making the markets even more volatile. Clearly this is a big supply shock for the markets were looking at close to 6 percent of the Global Supply that has been shut down after the saudis have said that they hope to restore at least a 3rd of close to about 2000000 barrels a day of production today but again you know thats not an official statement and i think the market is going to be quite a bit of a wait and watch mort and of course theres going to be a lot of nervousness and i expect plenty of volatility in trading as well weve had major disruptions outages if supply lost from iran from been is doing you know what the market when it looks back thats what it can get find in terms of supply disruption examples but then you know we had about 2000000 bottles but the iranian supply out of the market as a result of u. S. Sanctions we have more than a 1000000 barrels of day of venezuelan supply that have gone out as well but this has a lot of those have happened over several months both of those have been highly anticipated event it was well known so that the market always to pick has a coping mechanism for that Something Like this you know this magnitude being taken out of the market just like that you know in a matter of one day its huge its going to cause a lot of knowledge not just because of the amount of. Supply lost but also because thats just not enough information coming out of saudi arabia officially and i think you know thats going to be quite concerning for the oil markets israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu has threatened to annex large parts of occupied palestinian territories if he is reelected now the Palestinian Government and farmers are vowing to protect their land and one of the ways to do that is true agriculture need to even have reports from the occupied west bank where a new project is underway ahead of cheese days of action this is the 1st time to manage but it has plenty to use on this piece of land of.

S. There is no need to fly below the radar he is now concretely specifically carrying out these steps and declaring them announcing them whether netanyahu remains in power or not observers say political progress in the occupied territory is unlikely. To result in the terminology used in israel to discourse knowledge a political settlement that sees keeping the israeli settlements and.
