The league says it now stands behind protests against Racial Injustice following the death of george floyd in. Libyas un recognized government says its capturing more tonnes as its driving fighters loyal to war locally for huffed out of western libya the governments announced an offensive to recapture the city. Of sirte thats the hometown of former libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi and a half dollars stronghold the move comes hours after Government Troops took control of the town of bani walid ottos forces had lost control of the city of tal on friday it was the launch pad for the 14 month failed offensive to capture tripoli but fighters loyal to the warlords continue to command large areas of the oil rich east and south libya correspondent mahmud ill go ahead has more from tripoli hes joining us now lets talk about the situation with search 1st whats happening there. The government of National Accord forces have Just Announced that they launched a new offensive to recapture the strategic city of sirte it. Started from the green about 100 kilometers west of said if thats what the Government Forces are a position there and also were getting reports from. The government to air force targeted there a number of United Arab Emirates supplied dip military vehicles for half that his forces need and wish between senate and blue green on the military move on the city of city. After. Talks peaceful talks almost failed to hand over the city peacefully the government sources in misrata say that they tried to talk to the Elderly Council and their tribal leaders in the city of suited to avoid any more bloodshed by trying to convince them to hand over the city without any military confrontation and also to ask her to the forces to leave the city other way the government is launching get this incursion into the city to the captured it the city of cities has been so problematic as you know since to him since the fall of a man wanted to get death it was the birth of place of a man with a good death the end it has been always affiliated to the former regime. As you know its based on a tribal system and they have shifted allegiance since 2011 several times between. Get their feet and the warlords. Have that as you know. But the Government Forces have been sending reinforcements in there to green to move on the city of city and also that includes heavy weapons and drones marco and this is of course all happening while were getting reports the general who for hafter is said to be in egypt now what more do we know about the. Well were getting reports from cato is suggesting that the talks between have to and seize on also. The church and this this the speaker of the parliament which is allied with the world have to the talks will start so on. Hit in the west of libya. They do not rely on these talks as you know. The government to camp does not trust egypt specially given the fact that the egyptian regime. Has been a major supporter of the world honey for have to in fact the government of National Accord accuses him of violating the United Nations Security Council arms embargo imposed on libya since 2011 by supplying good civil types of weapons including heavy weapons and ammunition to the warlords have to the egyptian border. And to libyan borders. Dejection is not trusted by the government of National Court in fact the military commanders of the government here on the ground when we speak to them and front lines they say that they cannot accept any peace deal that has egypt as a mediator to end the conflict in libya so the government of russia called here as you know that it has a previous experience with the egyptian regime especially when the egyptian regime tried to haast the Libyan Military meetings in qaeda over the past 3 years in an attempt to. Night what it calls the Libyan Military as you know that all these meetings failed because the government accused him of taking half the size of being biased. The warlords have. But meanwhile egyptian remains. Defocused country accused by the government of National Accord to support the warlords have to and also in fact to send troops when we spoke to military commanders. When they were fighting in southern chipley they tell us that they saw egyptian soldiers fighting alongside have to his forces and military axes and southern tripoli in fact the government of national called has in its cost to the egyptian soldiers taken captives by its forces in southern shipping as mahmud giving us that update on the situation in libya from tripoli i want to bring in claudia good seanie is shes a senior libya analyst at the International Crisis group shes joining us now from rome thank you very much indeed for being with us lets talk about this meeting that is apparently going on in egypt at the moment given the fact that the government of National Accord forces seem to have made so many gains so quickly over the last couple of days how significant is it that is actually in cairo at this point. Well what egypt is trying to do is to ensure that the Eastern Coalition so half are on one side as representative of the Libyan National army and the lesson of the head of the president but they join ranks and appear as a united block so egypt is trying to show that the riffs that over the past few weeks have been rumored of being fuel in between and he who has a more pro peace is ocean and who has wanted to continue the war but actually the 2 of them. Are are getting along and have peace proposal to to offer so what were expecting from cairo today is some kind of declaration where the 2 men present in very broad to their commitments to. Cease talks their commitment to engage with the tripoli government towards a political negotiation that could potentially lead to a unified libya and also some reference to the 3rd track which is a financial track of course there is little hopes that this will have by and with the tripoli based government. And their backers turkey so its a very uncertain outcome and as we see the other sort of variable that is in the air is what will the g. N. A. T. Do militarily if the jenae continues its offensive to suit and beyond to georgia maybe to Eastern Libya then even this egyptian led attempt to greenhouse there are no new longboard on a Peace Process will vanish overnight if i have to his forces control still a great deal of libya and much of the areas that they control include the oil fields no when it comes to leverage does that mean that a political solution cannot be fun for libya im less it includes probably for half dollar in some form. Thats it the lid at prices is that threefold crisis it has a military component because its theres a wall between 2 rattle military clinicians theres a political component because were talking about 2 rival governments and theres a financial component because you did tens entirely on its oil revenues and therefore control over the oil and Gas Infrastructure is essential to keep the money coming to to the government and to the Public Sector in general so a political deal in libya is contingent on a financial deal as well because at the heart of the problem is a crisis of legitimacy between the 2 governments but also a crisis on who who is allowed to manage. Revenues and and what stakes for those who control them currently Hostile Forces control most of the oil fields in the south of the country and in the east of the country and the Oil Terminals from which all is export and they have been carrying out a blockade or oil export since jan your which has cost 5000000000. 00 of losses to the Libyan Government so there is theres no doubt that looking ahead the very can the most contentious issue will be how to find a settlement on the oil sector on the Financial Sector and alongside that a political settlement this will be the thorny issue looking ahead of course were not just talking about a conflict about west and east of libya were talking about a conflict which also involves many other foreign governments as well how do you think all of that is going to play out from the governments that are backing either side in the conflict. Yes theres no no doubt that the increased foreign intervention open or indirect into the libya conflict will hinder. The mission add to the conflict weve seen over the past few months turkey intervene openly alongside the tripoli based government bring its own military forces in the hundreds to libyan soil they brought in syrian fighters in the thousands to support in tripoli bass government on the other side we see egypt. Saudi arabia financially olso and russia supporting. Our led forces and there is no doubt that within the ranks of the backers of hafter the presence of turkish troops is anathema and they want to see them leaving libya and on the other side on the tripoli base government side they want to see the foreign backers. And the Ministry Forces tied to them theres even room where out of the Sudanese Forces being there on the ground also leads libya each power it has its sort of Strategic Interests in libya as well lets remember that for turkey and supporting the tripoli based government is yes about saving the government but its about turkeys staking its own job political interests and financial interests in the libyan waters as well so its a very complicated chess game that is the played out as well claudia good to me we appreciate your time thank you very much indeed thank you. One more ahead on the news hour including on the march in mali protesters have a surprising ally whos backing their demands for the president to resign. Were in lebanon to hear whos comparing the country to a sinking ship. In support of the rare sound of a full football stadium the game returns in vietnam with no limits on finance. After nearly 2 weeks of nationwide protests against Police Brutality several u. S. States are taking steps to reform Controversial Police practices and many are police where George Floyds died while in Police Custody chokeholds and neck restraints are banned but as she have a town say reports from washington d. C. Those policies arent being practiced. It all sounds very promising almost 2 weeks since george floyd was killed after a Minneapolis Police officer spent nearly 9 minutes spilling into the ground by his neck Police Forces around the country of our new form i really believe for the 1st time in our history we have an opportunity to really make change for george flowage death has really touched a nerve like we have not even. Several Police Departments including minneapolis of down police through using true codes california will stop teaching its state police the technique across this country we train techniques on strangleholds. That put peoples lives a risk now we can argue that these are used as exceptions but at the end of the day the carotid hold that literally is designed to stop peoples blood from flowing into their brain that has no place any longer than 21st century. Practices police see. The problem is many of the most notorious cases of Police Misconduct over the last several years including the death of george floyd have occurred in departments that on paper at least had already reformed new york bound chokeholds in 1993 yet police there continue to use them notably during the killing of eric garner in 2014 after that outcry new york police spent 35000000. 00 only training officers not to strangle suspects but Police Complaint records show the practice still being employed with few officers disciplined and in fact Minneapolis Police reformed in 2016 among the new rules a requirement for officers to intervene if their colleagues used Excessive Force 3 officers now stand accused of aiding and abetting George Floyds murder the site of Police Officers taking a knee in sympathy with protesters this week has been taken as a sign that finally change is coming this was the scene in buffalo new york on wednesday yes one of those same officers knocked over an elderly protester the following day as others who had also knelt with protesters walked by now 57 buffalo Police Officers have resigned because of the disciplinary action taken against 2 officers as a result of the incident they argued those officers have been suspended were just doing their job and that question what exactly is the job of a Police Officer might be a good place to start if Police Violence is truly to be addressed she ever turned see aljazeera. And f l commissioner Roger Goodell has apologized for the way the u. S. Football league handled players protests against Racial Injustice and Police Brutality olinka panic and other players knelt on one knee as the National Anthem was played in 2016 alexy obrien reports. When n. F. L. Quarterback Colin Kaepernick took a knee during the National Anthem 4 years ago the move divided the sport and the country in some corners he was celebrated for highlighting issues of Police Brutality and systemic racism people are really feeling their humanity and really feeling like you know what this might not be something i experience ideally basis but its not right that these other people are going through this but by others he was criticized threatened he lost his job with the San Francisco 49 ers and hasnt been hired sense now the head of the u. S. Football league has admitted it mishandled the situation with the National Football league in it we were wrong for not listening to n. F. L. Players earlier and encourage all to speak out peacefully protest. Read the national. Leave act lives matter up the price relations are especially explosive in the us right now are likely going to take her by the right background and the active kneeling has taken on new significance since george floyd died in minneapolis after a Police Officer knelt on his neck for 8 minutes and 46 seconds as he big. Is meant to see george. The n. F. L. Apology follows the release of a video by several players who included the specific demand that the n. F. L. Say black lives matter what would it take for one of us to be murdered by Police Brutality was through the mind organizer of the players video Michael Thomas of the new Orleans Saints has praised the n. F. L. Though some believe the apology isnt sincere its looks like more p. R. Hes responding to what players have said matches the players started all wrong calling happening he never mentions calling government you midges the players this is what in a tragedy is craig the same protest of our cities across america who are in a fill stadiums with you know season to games more than any other leg the n. F. L. Has struggled with the issue of race 3 courses of its players africanamerican but nearly every team owner is white u. S. President donald trump has previously called on owners to fire any players who knelt during the anthem one of his latest weights and caps with no kneeling evidence of americas deeply felt divisions the Football League now hoping its sports can help bring the country together and brian aljazeera. Norway has played an Important Role in previous negotiations between israelis and palestinians but no norwegian politicians say the prospect of any peace deal is bleak as israel pushes ahead with plans to annex parts of the occupied west bank always foreign minister has been speaking to our diplomatic editor james bays it was seen at the time as a diplomatic triumph a moment of hope as Palestinian Leader Yasser Arafat and israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin shook hands on the white house lawn and signed up to the all slower colds they were named after the capital city of the country norway where the diplomatic efforts started at 1st in secret but now the chances of peace of the bleak his theyve been at any time since the israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatening to annex parts of the west bank. In an interview with out 0 norways foreign minister tells me that could threaten the whole oslo process that it was aimed at creating 2 separate states but we cannot see an extension that would be in contravention of International Law and it would directly undermine the potential for a 2 state solution so bad is the very clear message from us norways still plays an Important Role a committee it leads the Ad Hoc Liaison Committee is now the only place where Key International players meet with israeli and palestinian representatives and the country is a candidate for membership of the un Security Council we from norway side and others stand ready at any point in time to facilitate if the parties want us to and there we see that there is there there is the room to try to work with the parties even though it is the stream lee difficult no way is competing for a seat on the un Security Council if you are elected how will you leverage that historic role and what will be your priorities on this issue well its something that we talk to all u. N. Member states about because we can bring to the table something that is quite unique we have experienced we have a network we have a way of working that has always been for the long haul very patient and we work behind the scenes there usually for a very long time before you know anyone knows that it is the process going on norway is in a tough race for the Security Council there are 3 countries canada arland and norway competing for 2 seats the election is on the 17th. If norway does succeed at some bassett or on the Security Council veteran diplomat mona youll she and her husband teddy and rude lawson hosted the very 1st then unofficial contacts that led to the all slow accords 27 years ago james bays aljazeera the United Nations. Tabors electorate presented university hes the also the author of palestinian politics and the middle east Peace Process consensus and competition in the Palestinian Negotiation Team hes joining us now thank you very much indeed for being with us if a norway is not losing faith if you like that the 2 state solution can be found to do the always the accords actually have any role to play anymore. I doubt very much i think that we have to Pay Attention to the very dramatic significant changes that happened inside the Israeli Society which led into a new political attitude that is no longer compatible with the basic requirements of the Peace Process and all slow approach because all slow accords and the Peace Process is based on the assumption that it should lead into a 2 state solution now that its no longer a Critical Mass in israel and that it leads that israel should give up their control over all or most of the occupied palestinian territories and recently there have been supported by the new administration of the United States which leaves us really very far away from the. Horse or the Peace Process if they are as low accord mechanism is no longer in place as you suggest what options are available to palestinians now. I think now the palestinians should try to encourage nature to play on the International Level especially those who believe into 2 state solution to an equal tonights. State of palestine because the 2 state solution is about israel and palestine israel is already. Recognized state and reality now what what we need is to continue helping the palestinians on all levels to try to realize their right of selfdetermination and the state and disregard the outside world including countries like norway which listed a lot of the 2 state solution of the Peace Process must try to to hold israel accountable for its violations of the International Law that are trying to prevent the development of a list stein into a full fledged state in accordance with the International Legality and the resolutions of the United Nations this situation as it stands at the moment in many ways is no different to the way it was many years ago nothing in as much that International Pressure has always been called for by palestinians and yet there seems to be a stumbling block when it actually comes to that International Pressure being put on israel and its supporters in order to come back to the negotiating table and to to make other talks how confident could you be that this time around other foreign governments are actually going to do what they have previously said that theyre going to do. I think that time is not playing to the fever of the 2 state solution because israel is using that time in order to create facts in the ground illegal facts on the ground that. The 2 state solution namely the illegal expansion of settlements therefore these countries like norway but many others especially in europe who have invested in 2 state solutions should be more wanted than before about the fact that we are losing this window of opportunity so there is a feeling of ferment of serjeants among these states to try to take other approaches hopefully that can rescue the 2 state solution that is the consensus in the world about their way to realize peace between these 2 parties in the middle east really interesting to get your thoughts on this. Thank you very much indeed for your time youre welcome francis says its killed the leader of al qaeda in north africa the French Defense minister says dr al died in an operation on thursday in the town of tests and in northwest mali several people from the inner circle were also killed dozens of french troops have been deployed in mali since 2013 police in mali have fired at protesters after tens of thousands gathered in the capital calling for the president to resign demonstrators saber him bubble to and his government have failed to tackle a worsening security situation Nicholas Hock reports.

But this part of corona virus getting worse across latin america thousands of venezuelan migrants in colombia ecuador and elsewhere are trying to return home but venezuela is limiting the number of people who can get back in and that means many people are stranded out of reports from a newly built tent city on the outskirts of bogota. The lucky ones have a proper tent the rest 6 shelter from the cold with a simple piece of plastic at least 500 venezuelan migrants left jobless and homeless during dipping their make have built a makeshift camp on the outskirts of bogota theyre all trying to return home. His family have walked for days from the city of food but are now stuck here in. North dakota you know its very hard not so much for me have lived through many things but we worried about the kids look at what our conditions are and now the pandemic thank god nobody got secure until now only want is to manage to go home. These are preventing them from continuing their trip after the venezuelan government started limiting the number of returnees because of coronavirus fears thats cause bottlenecks along the route. Some migrants have managed to save enough for a bus ride to the border but those 2 were cancelled. And little money would save for the trip has gone you can see there are young. People pregnant mothers one is 8 months pregnant what we going to do. The camp has no Running Water bathrooms or electricity people survive on the charity of strangers step bring food and supplies with most of the border closed they have little options left but to wait to formal crossings ive been authorized to operate as humanitarian corridors for the people that want to go back. To reduce the number of migrants they are allowed back in the country from more than 800 to now at times less than 100. In the town of growing numbers are stranded just meters from the border of the 1800000 venezuelans who fled to colombia in recent years 72000 have returned since the start of the pandemic. Were trying to negotiate with Venezuelan Oil fortys every day to let them through but if we go from having 700 people to 1200 or 2000 deriving from other cities that generates additional pressure and a greater risk of spreading the virus back at the camp the food they received will be enough for a day but they pray for a solution that could bring them home they know the economy might be even worse in venezuela but at least there they have their relatives in a roof. Now its time for the sport and heres far rob thank you so much the n. F. L. Says it will now encourage its players to speak out in peacefully protest against Racial Injustice the league has faced criticism from many of its star names. For one of us to be worried about Police Brutality. But outcome junior impactor homes were among the players demanding action from the n. F. L. The n. F. L. Had previously banned players from dropping to one deejaying the National Anthem a practice started by calling capper nick we did national typically. Racism in the systematic oppression of black people we have a National Think only if we wont for not listening to n. F. L. Players earlier and encourage all to speak out. Read the National Football league leave my clients man capper they 1st took any while playing in the n. F. L. 4 years ago its a gesture thats been repeated that many of the protests that have followed the death of george floyd please custody and september of 2016 capper nick now touring the pregame National Anthem to protest against Racial Injustice the San Francisco 49. 00 ers player left the n. F. L. At the end of that season and hasnt played since and 2018 team owners ruled that players could no longer kneel during the at them without being subject to punishment kaepernick to legal action against the n. F. L. Claiming he hadnt been signed by need team due to his political beliefs that collision case was settled out of court last year. Well several members of the Jacksonville Jaguars at a took to the streets on friday to march in protest after the killing of floyd the peaceful march started outside the clubs home stadium and can cleared it outside the Jacksonville Sheriffs Office or former jaguars wide receiver ernest well for now works as an officer. Of for more on this story were joined by n. F. L. Broadcaster Michael Carlson what should we read into the fact that capper nick was not mentioned by name in the commissioners apology i think we have to read quite a bit into it because the commissioners apology came as a response to the statement he issued a week ago saturday which a lot of us considered didnt really go anywhere and was seen as such i wrote a piece for our digital my internet magazine on medium which i wrote 2 days ago and its coming out today and in it i suggested that the n. F. L. Needed to go farther i think this statement by them is a step in the right direction but certainly it doesnt go far enough and that by and by omitting kaplan it from it it highlights that point the he was right they said the players were right he was right but what are we going to do about it do you think theyll be any backlash once the season begins and players start protesting again. Well i think it depends on the nature of the. Protest to some extent but backlash was a fear back in 2016 when khalid kaplan it took his knee and although media made a great deal of it there was actually very little effect on the n. F. L. I think most fans either recognized that his protest was both respectful and valid and or didnt think that it effected the league one way or another the league it take it no stance obviously and as we used to say back in the sixtys if youre not part of the solution youre part of the problem i think this statement takes a step in the right direction but as you just pointed out with jacksonville you know there is only one minority owner among the 31 n. F. L. Owners and shod con if you saw the owner out there with players if you saw the commissioner out there with players protesting it would send a very strong message and it would also i think reduce the chances of the police attacking protesters when you see people like that in the front rows. Ok so beyond these words what sort of meaningful reforms you talked a bit about it there are dizzy n. F. L. Needs to implement and you talked a little bit about it there but for more if you can elaborate more to get you know africanamericans in key positions yeah i think i think were youre talking were talking about 2 different door to related things here and one is the n. F. L. And its effect on the public which obviously they are entertainers theyre in the public eye and they they have a responsibility i think to be sure to have a social conscience and the n. F. L. Is i hope going to allow that to be that to be stated more often within the n. F. L. They have taken good steps most notably the rooney rule requiring minorities to be interviewed for jobs in the last couple of months theyve been reviewing the rooney rule trying to make it more effective which i think it is a combination of things they need to look at including extending it lower down the scale in terms of coaching hires and also extending it into front offices and indeed into ownership positions within front offices so you know i think that case within the league in a league thats basically black players theyre doing well ok thanks so much for your time Michael Carlson theyre.
