Of pain and trauma a family members of the missing victims of lebanons devastating blast. U. S. President ial nominee joe biden has struck a tone of hope and unity on the final day of the Democratic National convention he has formally accepted his partys nomination for president promising to overcome a season of darkness in the United States by then said the us is more than just a collection of red and blue states and promise to represent all americans he also president of failing to lead and failing to protect. United we can and will overcome this season of darkness in america will choose hope over fear facts over fiction fairness over privilege for historic crises also same time a perfect storm the worst pandemic in over 100 years the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression the most compelling call for Racial Justice since the sixtys and the undeniably realities and x. Just accelerated threats of Climate Change or you know about this president is that hes given 4 more years hell be what hes been for the last 4 years president takes no responsibility refuses to lead blames others cozies up to dictators and fans the flames of hate and division will develop and deploy rapid test results available immediately or make the medical supplies and protective equipment that our country needs will make them here in america our current president s failed in his most basic duty to the nation hes failed to protect us hes failed to protect america and my fellow americans that is unforgivable as president ill make you a promise. Ill protect america i would defend us from every attack see. Always without exception every time our correspondent alan fischer has been following the night events from wilmington in delaware allen you get a sense of what was an impassioned speech by joe biden but the question is did his message resonate with americans particularly those swing voters who he needs to attract. Well theres a couple of things that point 1st of all right to the beginning of the speech joe biden said well he is the democratic candidate he will be an american president that was clearly him throwing his arms out saying look if youre disillusioned by this president please come on board vote for me we can change the way america is headed the 2nd thing is that he managed to criticize this president without actually using the name donald trump 4 years ago Hillary Clinton mentioned donald trump 22 times in a Convention Speech this time joe biden made 0 mentions that was a very savvy move because he defined the president without actually using the name donald trump no what is also interesting is that donald trump highs for a very long time know said that he will be up against Sleepy Joe Biden he wants to go in an election against Sleepy Joe Biden the Trump Campaign described joe biden as not quite worth it perhaps even on the verge of being senile that speech just demolished that argument completely so now donald trump is in an election fight and a real election flight not against the catechize sure but against a real candidate someone who stood up and spoke from the heart someone who said that he realized he had to get into the fight to fight for the soul of america after the events in charlottesville 3 years ago when in the white nationalists the nazis and White Supremacists marched through the streets chanting nazi slogans he said that was the Tipping Point for him and that is why 3 years on he is standing accepting the nomination for the Democratic Party going into the election in november the Convention Site far has been heavy on trying bashing. On policy detail did you feel the speech tonight gave us a bit more stare at all. Policy from the democrats. Or what i think joe biden realized that that was the toughest to be undone nor lucian this was that the biggest speech joe biden has ever delivered in this 49 years and politics you can forget about running for the senate here in delaware in 1973 this was the speech that was going to define his political career and many people even those on the right would suggest that he i salute lee delivered but you knew just go on to the convention and see im the guy whos not donald trump vote for me because you dont like him he had to present the vision he had to give an idea of what he would do and i suspect he did that not least because he talked about what he would do from day one in office that he would start his National Program to try and be a covert crisis he would introduce i the Infrastructure Program building bridges establishing Broadband Internet to Rural Communities building new airports all of these things he suggested would get people back to work and then confronting Climate Change not just because it is an ardent issue but because people leave that can create jobs where america can be a world leader where they can create new technologies and sell that technology to the world and then in social justice he talked about how this could be the generation that actually confronts an issue that is been deviled america and its more than 200 year history so he laid out his criticisms of the president without actually saying what they were but he also very much outlined what he would do as president and what happens now normally at this point you would be saying candidates hitting the campaign trail but of course with coronavirus restrictions reaching those votes isnt in many states is going to be a lot harder. Normally at this time after the Convention Im checking what time my flight is in the morning to go to the 1st Campaign Stop because thats what candidates do theyre off they start crisscrossing the country they start selling their message they Start Talking to people all over this country sometimes 456 cities in a day and certainly normally more than 2 states but suddenly its different because of covert and so this was really the point that joe biden had to push his Campaign Message a lot of people will be tuning in for the conventions maybe not as many as before but this is where a lot of undecided voters may well make their decision on what the hear from joe biden and what they hear from the president next week what joe biden delivered was a speech of optimism donald trump just a few hours ago in pennsylvania delivered a speech where he said cancel culture is prevalent this is what the democrats will take from you this is what they will start doing people in 2020 have had to go through anough of rough times that they dont want to hear the view of a dystopian future they want to hear where is the same shining city on the hill as Ronald Reagan described it what is the optimism where is the light at the end of the tunnel joe biden said a very tough task for donald trump hes now got to meet that at his Convention Next week as the democrats leave here. Many thanks. As a political strategist with full Circle Strategies she was. 8 Obama Campaign she says bidens speech provided hope. So tonight what president find is that he showed america that we have a choice now we have a choice in which direction we want to take this country and he reminded us that he is going to be a president for all of america i dont think that you know we you know all agree are saying that the current president is one that feels that he represents all of america and so tonight you know Vice President biden in my. Outline a great play and he touched hearts and souls and minds and he actually gave us who gave us inspiration i think that americans across the country are feeling the speech they feel heard they feel seen and i think that that night a lot of americans saw who you know who this man is who he is as a father hughes as a servant leader who he is as an american and i think that he touched it with many americans. Well the Term Campaign has responded to bidens speech and releasing a statement which says by accepting his partys nomination tonight joe biden has 4 may become a pawn of the radical leftists his name is on the campaign lego but they ideas come from the socialists extremists the statement goes on to say joe biden is a twice failed candidate for president and is without question a far west candidate the 3rd time around Michael Fauntroy is the acting director of the ronald doubly walters leadership and Public Policy center at Howard University he says biden struck the right chord with his address today. I thought it was what a president ial nomination speech should be it gave a really broad overview of some of the things that he would like to do as president but as weve learned over the course of the last 8 to 10 president ial elections really being able to communicate certain characteristics like integrity decency empathy that kind of thing is is really important as a most voters and throughout the entire. People speaking on joe bidens behalf that emphasize that and he drove that point home and self today just sort of discussing how he was raised and some of the trials and tribulations that hes overcome throughout his own life i thought he did a really good job connecting with that and i also think he did a really good job and not going to deeply into policy because i dont think the voters actually want that and miscounted speech the mayor of atlanta keesha allowance balsams address the Us Civil Rights Movement and paid tribute to the late congressman john lewis in her Convention Speech we know how important it is that we elect real leaders like joe biden and calmly harris people of honor and integrity who hold justice close to their hearts and believe that the lives of my 4 black children matter in the words a woman is poet audrey lord your thousandths will not protect you congressman lewis would not be silenced and neither can we we cannot wait for some other time some other place some other heroes we must be the heroes of our generation.

The final day of peace negotiations is underway between the government and armed factions in myanmars capital not doe more than 20 groups are demanding independence the violence has forced hundreds of thousands of karren and other ethnic minorities from their homes. So far 3 rounds of negotiations have been held and many of the affected villages aunt hopeful of significant progress speak to our correspondent wayne hay who joins us from china may in thailand where many of the ethnic groups have representatives based so good to see you what was the goal of this round of talks and has there any progress been made. Well this is the 1st formal peace conference that has been held in more than 2 years so i think ultimately this was really about setting the Peace Process back on track and they bring the government to lay some groundwork to try to ensure that it continues beyond novembers election into next year because i think among some of the rebel armies there was a real concern that the entire Peace Process because of those delays and disagreements could fall apart completely so in the Union Peace Accord that will be signed on the final day i think what we will see is certainly no significant significant announcements or developments but it will include a framework to again try to ensure that this Peace Process continues into next year and also further details about the implementation of the nationwide ceasefire agreement which was signed way back in 2015 so theyre still negotiating that so that shows you how complex and difficult this whole process is but i think in danger of overshadowing the whole 3 Day Conference where the opening remarks by the head of military men online who gave a very fiery opening speech criticized the civilian government led by state councillor Aung Sun Suu Kyi and he laid the blame for the lack of progress through the 3 previous peace conference is squarely at the feet of the ethnic organizations the rebel armies saying that there was dishonesty among the stakeholders so clearly that will not be welcomed by those rebel armies president in our present. And if anything it may be seen as setting the entire process back rather than moving it in the right direction one gets a bit more background what are these armed groups fighting for. Well it certainly began you know way back in 1989 with the 1st rebel army the Korean NationalLiberation Army as the fight for independence they want to break away from me and model burma as it was known then thats changed now they dont really want to break away they want to stay part of me and my but they want to new political system they want a federal political system and they want selfdetermination within that within that and thats what the government says it wants as well but there is skepticism among those ethnic armies that the government and the me and my military is really sincere about that and then some of the rebel armies like the k. L. A. Again say that its all very well talking about the political game here which of course is vital but in the meantime theyre not talking enough about the other things that they feel are important like human rights like land grabs by the me and my military in their territory like control over Natural Resources and Infrastructure Projects and perhaps most importantly equality because many many of these ethnic minorities that the rebel armies represented are fighting for simply dont have the same rights or freedoms as the majority burmese population so its a very complex issue its going to take a very long time to resolve many thanks wayne hey there in chiang mai in thailand the United States is demanding that all International Sanctions be reimposed on iran accusing tehran of violating the terms of a 2015 Nuclear Agreement washington withdrew from the nuclear deal 2 years ago the u. K. France and germany are rejecting the move they say the u. S. Has no new legal right to ask that sanctions be reinstated kristen salumi has more from the u. N. In new york. U. S. Secretary of state mike pompei o made a special trip to un headquarters to formally accused iran of violating the 2015 nuclear deal in a letter submitted to the Security Council president he argues iran has been enriching uranium and supplying weapons to proxy militias in the middle east its an attempt to trigger un procedures that would lead to the automatic reinstatement of sanctions this process will lead to those sanctions coming back into effect 30 days from today. Our message is very very simple that isis will never allow the Worlds Largest state sponsor of terrorism to freely buy and sell planes tanks missiles and other kinds of conventional weapons the u. N. Sanctions will continue the arms embargo the socalled snap back provision was part of the deal negotiated 5 years ago theres just one problem the u. S. Withdrew from the deal in 2018 but that it is now but its not going to take a break up but got to do which is a but is a book and he said be away with us its not iran like russia says the u. S. Move is illegal and the act of a bully that nothing is going to happen in 30 or 31. 00 days because the u. S. Has to enjoy the support of the Security Council which does not exist the u. S. Position is being critical of and the security johnson the United States has put its european allies on the Security Council in a very awkward position they didnt speak publicly but issued a statement saying they cannot support the u. S. Is a unilateral move because they want to preserve the International Nuclear deal that is as long as the iranians hold up their end of it the one thing that could actually turn a lot of the europeans. Back to the u. S. Side in these discussions would be a serious problem. I think that what were likely to see is the iranians you know the u. S. Electoral calendar simply white it could make for uncomfortable relations in the Security Council at least until November Christian salumi aljazeera the united nations.
