Sister act with a serious message we hear from teenagers at the forefront of the Anti Racism Movement in the netherlands. And im here to save the sport has n. F. L. Players all want to start training after 14 support coronavirus cases. So the libyans parliament calls it a direct threat egypt says its all a misunderstanding a day after president of bullfighter l. C. C. Threaten to send his army into libya his foreign minister says he backs a political solution to the conflict. Well c. C. Warned of military intervention if forces belonging to libyas un recognized government advance on the strategically important city of set. You are ready to carry out any missions what i witnessed is a living proof of our capabilities i can say egypts army is one of the mightiest armies in the region i am certain if we need a few sacrifices like those being carried out over the past 7 years along our borders with libya you are prepared to carry out any mission with no home soil or if required beyond our border lines. But a few hours later egyptian foreign minister somebody should push for a political solution saying the government in tripoli had properly read the idea is sisi meanwhile the u. S. Says the road map to stability involves a cease fire immediate restoration of Libyan Oil Production and the launch of a political process more on the u. S. Reaction in just a few minutes with mike hanna but 1st lets go to malik trainer is live for us in misrata in libya and malik how is this playing out in libya whats happening on the ground. Well several janay officials have responded to president of the foot that has c. C. s remarks on saturday the mystery thats the speaker of the High State Council has said has denounced his remarks calling them a violation to libyan sovereignty the g. N. A. T. Military commander who i spoke to a little while ago said that their forces are out and they will and their search now its important to know that these are forces that know the territory and certain very well in 2011 forces primarily from here in misrata were responsible for entering sirte and capturing and killing more good that the they did that of course with nato support in 2016 the same forces are the ones who went to sirte and liberated it from eisel they did that of course with american support so these are forces that know the territory well they are confident they can enter sirte and they say that they will and you know the commander earlier told me that the d. N. A. Or our forces will not stop until we in his words liberate all of libya from have to control so what were seeing is the genie forces out of the official here are adamant about getting their belief the house theyre out of the picture they say they wont negotiate with after and theyre adamant about retaking or taking control of all of libyan land and so what were waiting to see is how how the political maneuvering of these various countries that are involved in libya what kind of action will they take i mean were seeing up to fuck up to the house he says foreign minister sort of tone down his remarks after yesterday saying that theyre willing to you know the ghost are or are or in cooperation with various political actors to get a peaceful solution in libya. Or money when he left the moment to moment turn of their. Lets now speak to my kind of hes standing by for some motion to washington d. C. So mike what about the state department what have they had to say about this. Ill make a very cautious response from the state department a Senior State Department official says that all parties must establish a cease fire a lie that is observed they say too that a key to achieving a lasting peace is a resumption of Oil Production in libya they also their fact that they continue to support un backed efforts to achieve a lasting truce and also make mention to the of the berlin meeting in january at which various parties made various commitments which are not being observed at present but underlying age and bullets in the us position is perhaps a gap between the executive president and state department in the past President Trump has supported Khalifa Haftar in complete reversal to what the state Department Position was now officially the us of position remains support for the Government Troops in based in tripoli however there is that the lack of clarity in terms of where President Trump stands now it must be mentioned as well that some 2 weeks ago President Trump did have a conversation with the turkish president. Or one at which one said that they came to a lot of agreement on the situation in libya now there was Nothing Official out of the white house on that particular conversation but certainly its a very important one given the nature and the power of earlier one support for the Government Forces based in tripoli are those the story from washington d. C. My kind of thanks very much indeed lets hear now from an sami hamdi whos the editor in chief of the International Interest magazine and he says the d. N. A. Wants to make sure its in the most powerful position before negotiation. We have to remember that the dynamics have changed there in libya with turkeys intervention and we have to remember that well have to it was strong he didnt want to negotiate and now that the d. N. A. Are strong they are the ones that are rejecting that negotiation and the reason being is that turkey wants to maximize the gains for the g. N. A. T. As much as possible they want sit and go for that to make sure the jna is in the most powerful position possible before negotiations egypts stance is lets do talks now while sit down just for are in the hands of the and they are in the hands of the east and government in order to ensure that the n n a continues to have a say in the potential political future of libya i dont think egypt wants to get involved i think egypt is genuine about negotiations maybe not necessarily for the reasons that d. N. A. Want it to be. In favor of negotiations but we have to also remember that egypt has offered to empower get asylum at the expense of have to so the issue here is not just there the issue here is not this idea of who want to negotiate who doesnt want negotiations the idea is that now out of the genome on top now that they are being backed by turkey given that half there was not interested to go sheesh and when he was on top the g. N. R. Saying why should we be interested in it lets get as much as we can until were forced to stop in other words what applies here is the famous verses of the 2 news in poets custom should be that they can be no justice or in this case negotiations until the powers are balance right now the jna are struck and this is why we see this. Plenty more still ahead on the news hour including voting is underway in serbia despite growing numbers of covert 1000. 00 invasions and its not just fears of disease marring election. How israels political balancing act is affecting. Parts of the west bank. And. It will be here to tell you what thats all about. So donald trump has more controversy at its 1st reelection rally in months u. S. President insult to china and told supporters coronavirus testing has turned up too many cases trump went against advice and holding the rally intel turned. Smaller crowd than expected Health Officials warned it could worsen a pandemic thats already killed nearly 120000 americans she have written as this. Have been reported that this rally was intended not just to energize the president s supporters but to lift the spirits of a man whos craved the adulation of his base during the long months of lock down you are so lucky president thats all like. The Trump Campaigns hopes of a turnout of 100000 supporters inside and outside this Great American comeback rally fell short in fact the president canceled what had been planned as a pretty rowdy address at the outdoor overflow area because of a lack of numbers those who filed into the 20000 capacity arena temperatures checked having waived their right to sue the Trump Campaign if they contract it covert 19 it had been reported that 6 members of the Trump Advance Team had tested positive for the virus and on saturday the location of the rally is a new daily record of infection but the president mocked. Caution im suggesting throughout his speech that protesters have been causing trouble outside and discouraging attendance but there were a few protesters and no incidents reported before he spoke you are warriors thank you we had said very bad people out there was the usual blame for the chinese too but here with racially offensive language has more names than any disease minister. I can name. Flu i dont blame for public Health Officials for the spread of the virus in the us what you do testing to that extent you can find more people are going to find more cases so i said to my people are slow the testing down please. Administration officials quickly briefed journalists that the president was just joking as for the unprecedented demonstrations spawning race and close across the country against Police Violence and systemic racism the president once again presented them as unchecked anti american anarchy and he presented his general election opponent joe biden as a man with a questionable record on race in failing Mental Health amid these historic protests if the democrats cave. Then the riders will be charged and no one will be safe and no one will have control joe biden whos not the leader of his Party Joe Biden is a helpless puppet of the radical left by far the longest section there was a defense of the president s cautious use of a ramp following his speech of the west Point Military academy the week before that had led to speculation about his health it had no handrail it was like it ice skating this event wasnt simply about amusing the president there a 1000000 people were reported to have registered for the event giving the phone numbers as well as email and whom addresses this is essential information for ensuring turnout in november election especially as a significant proportion of trunk space owned regular voters these events are crucial for the Trump Campaign as momentum we will. Raise. The rally did seem like a Public Health experiment what would happen if you packed thousands of people into an indoor arena many refusing to wear or take a minimal precautions for several hours of singing cheering im shouting in a city experiencing a surge in crude 19 infection we should know in 2 to 3 weeks she every time see elders or. Well larry is a political analyst and he says its unlikely President Trump will escape the control to see surrounding the ronnie home schooling i think what the president is dealing with right now is the perfect storm the president is still reeling from a kobe 1000 outbreak that is only getting worse and even though the numbers tonight simply were not what the president expected there is still a concern a deep worry that those many thousands of people that are in that stadium tonight not only could be d carriers but also could spread this virus throughout the country and that is something that the president is going to have to confront in addition to that as we look at all of the demonstrations over the last 25. 00 days that occur and you see the just the enormous crowds many are going to look at this president look at whats taking place and began to wonder if fact if this president cannot draw audiences in deep red oklahoma no less does that mean that people simply are tuning out his message doesnt mean that the president simply is ineffectual at leading the country out of both of these crises and remember not only is it just a confluence of a pandemic and social and civil unrest but the present in the studio dealing with an economy thats at recession perhaps even Great Depression levels and right now there is still no no no sense that this president can grapple or address either of these crisis let alone all 3 at one time well one story there any traction online could explain why trumps run he was the 3rd empty users on social media say they tried to encourage people to register for the event but then not turn up the movements most active supporters with teenagers who posted videos of them done soon with trumps web site behind them but a 51 year old woman from iowa is credited with helping to prank. I recommend all of those of us that want to see this 90000 seat on a jury im barely filled or completely empty go reserve tickets now and leave them standing there alone on the stage what do you say. Well that post has had more than 700000 likes and about 2000000 views the prank is said to have had backup from fans of the south korean music genre k. Pop who are known for supporting social justice causes Trump Campaign a predicted a 1000000 people would be at the rally based on those who had replied and is blamed protesters for the empty seats. A yemeni separatist group says its arrested military personnel and taken over most of the government run camps on the island of sumatra a government sources that amounts to a coup the Southern Transitional council supported by the United Arab Emirates is battling the saudi backed Yemeni Government for control of the island lets bring in our jurors heard from her whos covered the war in yemen extensively joins us now and so the government says this amounts to a coup unravel this for us which is a very complex situation with it isnt it is it is and the 2 key players who teamed up in 2015 the u. A. E. And saudi arabia in yemen saying theyre that ultimate goal is to defeat the whole theists seem to be now with different political agendas to see the separatists who took over the island are backed by the u. A. E. While the internationally recognized government has fighting against the us to see is backed by sandy arabia this is a major victory for the s. T. C. Because so qatar is an island which is located at the mouth of the gulf of aden and it overlooks 3 strategic shipping routes for oil and gas tankers basically the gulf of aden burble amende and the red sea all the way through the. Suez canal so from a s. T. C. Perspective this is something that would further expand their political influence and the s. T. C. Made it quite clear that this is just part of a long political process until they decide finally to break away from the northern part of yemen and reinstate the southern republic of yemen that existed until 1990 and this is definitely a major setback for saudi arabia and then how does what is playing out on so katra kind of key in to whats going on on the mainland while this is going to create all sorts of problems for all the. Players for the International Community the United Nations is now facing a delicate task it wont be able to move ahead with the 2018 political agreement that was reached in sweden number 2 it is going to further involved in the s. T. C. To claim for the territory of the southern part of the country and i think this this could be the beginning of the end for president. And his government which lives in exile in saudi arabia very ive been look at other tweets today and they all say basically that they have been betrayed by the saudis and the saudi arabia is to blame for the gains made by the sea because the s. T. C. For 2017 when they took over the south and when they declare the self rule. In april theyve been given substantial military and Financial Support from the United Arab Emirates from from a government perspective this is an ultimate betrayal by the saudis and this is going to create further instability and further violence because nic when you look at yemen in general you have 23 key players here now you have the hope these who have or still control huge areas in the north you have the government of the was shes losing ground and you have the separatists who are gaining ground if you ask the americans if you ask the International Community and the United Nations in particular whether this is going to be conducive to any political settlement in the future there will be very precise mystic about that outcome. Thanks for that do appreciate it. A pretty spirited thanks love.

However counterterrorism to sectors work closely with the Security Services and will work closely with Thames Valley major crime colleagues and we continue to breaking choirs to ensure that that is the case top priority will always be to ensure there is no outstanding threat to members of the public one of new yorks top federal prosecutors is agreed to step down after a standoff with the u. S. Attorney general in the white house Jeffrey Berman had initially refused to resign saying he learned about the plan to replace him in a press release berman has led several corruption investigations into President Trumps close allies a tell all memoir by former u.

Chinas controversial new security law could be imposed on hong kong within weeks chinas top notch the body has announced a 3 day session starting next sunday its not specified if it is directly related to the proposal but the details of the laura bush on saturday revealing mainland courts will have jurisdiction over Certain National security rights. Israel is a few days away from beginning to annex nearly a 3rd of the occupied west bank but as the july the 1st start date set by the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approaches a workable plan remains unclear the us is backing the annexation if netanyahu can Reach Agreement with his Coalition Partner benny gantz reinforce it as. Benjamin netanyahu has plans for an accession have already been delayed he was told to slow down by the white house sort of the unveiling of the trump plan in january now that being complicated by the differences with his former rival now Coalition Partner benny gantz has called for coordination not just with the u. S. But also with arab neighbors. The trump plan and visit israel an extinct 30 percent of the occupied west bank with a future palestinian state given israeli territory elsewhere israeli officials have leaked various options in the media one is to begin with some or all of the major illegal settlement blocks ario maale adumim and the etzion bloc near bethlehem the marrow of a frat within the etzion block argues for moving quickly and taking whats been put on the table by the Us Administration and i think Prime Minister that i now understand that you cant postpone such an opportunity relying that there will be a better one in the future because i dont recall ever in the past having such an opportunity i dont think hell give it up this time a 2nd option though fraught with risk given jordans vehement opposition to any annexation would be to begin with the Jordan Valley israel says it needs a defined and defensible eastern border here but it has economic interests to 11000. 00 Israeli Settlers live in the illegal Jordan Valley settlements using disproportionate water allocation for a year round agriculture 85 percent of the land is off limits to palestinians and its here in the Jordan Valley that Benjamin Netanyahu is finding some of the store just opposition to his plans for annexation to the truck plant as a whole and its coming from powerful settler leaders here theyre lobbying against annexation based on the trump plan because it means agreeing in principle to a palestinian state. Ought if the meaning of extending sovereignty is to get a palestinian state we say no thank you we give up on sovereignty we keep living as we are right now out of National Responsibility because a palestinian state would endangered the existence of the state of israel. Perhaps the least likely option of all the one still floated in the knesset you know friendly newspaper would be to start with the 15 socalled enclave settlements these would be small israeli islands within the trump lands palestinian state the palestinian leadership the precise nature of the 1st step doesnt matter any annexation is illegal and must be stopped what we hope is that israel should not continue to be above and got a national law. What we hope is that there really is that i would feel the heat of pressure for any of the options to happen 1st the United States says gansu netanyahu need to agree potentially giving got some leverage in his argument against unilateral moves. But netanyahu has leverage of his own in the form of rising poll numbers if guns doesnt agree to an accession he could simply engineer another round of elections are a force at aljazeera in the occupied west bank. Actually Racism Campaign is in the netherlands have been fighting for change for years even before the blacks. Raise their profile they want the. Black Pete Christmas tradition bound theyve repeatedly said wearing Black Francis and theyre angry that 5 years after a black man was killed in Police Custody the officers involved received suspended sentences they also want another mans role in the slave trade.

People protesting or whatever and then you will want to do the same thing that. 2020 is the year of change thats what all these young activists would like to believe step fasten aljazeera in the south of the netherlands.
