V. Security and safety of its workers thanks for that mahmoud of our head in tripoli. Libya has been divided by rival powers since the overthrow of longtime leader Moammar Gadhafi 9 years ago the un recognized government controls the areas in blue its seat of power is in the capital tripoli the warlord holy for half the hour who forms the self declared Libyan National army controls these areas in red and his administration is based in the eastern city of to brook of the us forces had been trying to capture tripoli from jna forces for more than a year but had not succeeded and turkey has announced that its discovered a huge natural gas reserve in the black sea president richard typo no one says history has been made. I really am delighted to bring this good news to you 2 he has successfully found the largest gas field in the black sea this is the biggest exploration and the biggest discovery in 2 keys history. Lets talk now to sam costello who is in istanbul said and what more can you tell us about this discovery and what it might mean for turkey. Well it is of course big news for turkey another very big news for the energy giant economists but especially for a country like turkey which is totally dependent on Energy Imports and which course around a more than 40 1000000000. 00 a year is of course a good news they are much the size of resource announced by president our don is thought to be relatively a small small piece of size but as don stated it can be a good news for some other resources that turkish drill ship can reach out to so within that time if they reach about 2 or 3 more fields like this some enter just experts that i have spoken to tell me that turkey can at least provide its own energy. Energy needed that it imports which is around 40000000000 cubic. Meters every year it is a high amount it is that it is going to be a good use but of course this is something. That needs physical it is studies then the real ship should take more and if the if the gas found can be commercially extract that this will be a good use of course they will do the studies that spurred the Energy Minister stated but this is due a political win for turkey as well because for instance almost 8 per cent of its natural gas imports is from russia turkey this is why for the regional issues when it comes to negotiate with russia it ties turkeys sense but on the other hand the opposition criticizes the government that it is this is this good. State that is just part of a p. R. Campaign to save the government which has been criticized by its supporters for bad Economic Management thinking that the turkish there has been on the decline for the last 2 years i think that said of course the old line for us in istanbul. The wife of russian opposition politician alexina valmy has appealed to president vet of air pollution to allow him to be taken to germany for treatment he went into a coma on thursday with suspected poisoning a police deliberate tree says it found traces of an Industrial Chemical in his body but russian doctors say theres no indication he was poisoned or its helens reports. Whats going on inside this regional russian hospital is only slightly clearer than whats going on inside the body of its most famous patient with a plane waiting in to take an unconscious alexina valmy to germany doctors are saying hes too sick to move though german doctors have now been in to see him his condition remains unstable the question of his transfer i think is premature we have to achieve the complete stabilisation of this patient that is certainly a change from yesterday when the hospital doctors said the valley was in a stable condition but the opposition leaders wife and colleagues suspect or thora hes a stalling to hide signs of poisoning fish tank and use the stuff we certainly believe that it was made to make sure that a chemical substance which is in a lexus body dissolved thats why hes not handed over hes not in good shape and we certainly cannot trust this hospital and we demand him to be handed over to us so that we can be able to treat him in independent hospital which doctors we trust. This is the airport cafe in tomsk when a valley supporters suspect something was put in a cup of tea he drank before boarding the plane from moscow late on thursday it had been cordoned off but poisoning is currently being played down by medics in charge of the hospital and they say hes suffering a metabolic disorder from low blood sugar levels just yet this miracle of. The tests weve done have not indicated poisons in blood or urine therefore poisoning as a diagnosis remains on the back burner we dont believe that the patient suffered from poisoning in Moscow St Petersburg and other cities in a valley supporters have been gathering and getting detained putin stop poisoning people says this placard never tell me live says another like the opposition leaders closest aides theyre convinced this was an attempt on around is life and of lie to me putin is to play for italians aljazeera. Well i can just tell you on the virtue god is a moscow based journalist she says developed his family were unable to see the German Medical Team we could see in a vial is their spirit wife off to the german doctors left the hospital she tried to talk with them but she says shes been pushed off and not allowed to get information about the condition of her husband supposedly the doctors from germany werent sure were shown in the documentation medical document files they have in this hospital as well as the results but the family often violent and hes pollux and friends were not able to even talk to them at this point that makes them think more even more dead that the whole thing about the decision of whether he can be transported or not is more political than medical and thats why youre going to by law was appealing to the president of russia Vladimir Putin to allow him to be transported out of the country. The bellows an opposition candidate is calling for more mass protests to keep up the pressure on president alexander the. Said lama take on the sky is leading the calls for the president s resignation theres been demonstrations for 12 Straight Days including some of the biggest antigovernment rallies in minsk since the fall of the soviet union the kind of sky fed to lithuania after the election which she says was rigged against her. Because she would know people in belarus today are being beaten just for expressing their opinion people in bella reuss are being thrown in prison for taking part in peaceful protests my husband is in prison and bella reuss just for daring to dream about a country for life. Our common goal is simple we dont want to live with fear and lies anymore we want what everyone in the world is entitle to the right to live the right to be safe in the street the right not to be imprisoned without a fair trial and the right to fair free and Transparent Elections steadfast and was following that press conference from the capital minsk she was asked if she is going to run for the presidency again if there would be new Fair Elections but she was very invasive about this question she said its a bit early days and it is indeed early days because the situation here in minsk and in belarus has significantly significantly changed in the last couple of days its very clear that president. Tightening his grip on power hes still very much in control of the Security Forces protest have still been going on but they are smaller than they were before there is this Opposition Council which also has been installed by sky and thats why im here at this theater because one of the leaders of this. Council is now in hiding because hes fearing for his life members of the council have also been faced with charges criminal charges for an appeal to overthrow the government several members of this council have been questioned this morning there was fear that they would be detained but they have just gone out of this Investigative Committee but there is also of course a lot of fear that this Police Crackdown that we saw just 2 weeks ago is going to happen again. Finlands foreign minister pika of the stone told us about some of the diplomatic efforts European Countries are making to support people. Of course we have many courses one is that the violence has been used against the peaceful demonstrators and also that there are Political Prisoners in the country including some of course the leaders of. Passes that we now see that people are. Afraid of the ordination columns of. Of course we are afraid that more free press on wall street and its more violence might might follow and of course we have been appealing there is going to the leadership of belarus to release Political Prisoners are not to use by all of us against them or specters rent last november means greet the current minister on clean day and had even a meeting with president lukashenko and of course. This didnt happen now i had called to. The foreign minister of letters and of course at that violence should not be used and that they knew preamp a leg sometimes it would also ask the Security Organization of europe so always to participate as observers of the election and also allow their representatives to come to the country unfortunately this is not yet the case but i think its very important that the court continuously are in contact with the leadership of belarus. And at peel to them to move on or create a preamp erikssons. Still ahead on aljazeera. A victory celebration mali off the president steps down the question is was it a coup or voluntary. That the Postal Service is fully capable committed to delivering the nations election many securely in. The u. S.

The wife of russian opposition politician or they say the valley has appealed president Vladimir Putin to allow him to be taken to germany for Treatment Police say they found traces of an Industrial Chemical on his body the russian doctors say theres no indication that he was poisoned. The leaders of malis military coup a denying they forcefully removed the president from power saying he resigned voluntarily. Kater announced his resignation on tuesday after soldiers detained him he hasnt been seen since the military says hes being held at an Army Barracks for his own protection of a diet he was visited by an official from the u. N. Mission in mali. And if. Hes doing very well as are all the others they arent under arrest there detained the cuban safety for their own security youll agree with me that after this kind of situation theres some insecurity for example after he left his home some people attacked his house after hed left some people have even come to us on their own initiative for their own safety. And can keep an eye on things well its bringing up interests who is monitoring the story from a brooch or op ed how is that going down in mali the idea that this wasnt a coup and the president chose to step down. Well basically i spoke to an academic a short while ago before coming on. And the question we are asked was whether or not it brought him but what. Would have voluntarily resigned from office if the military had dont intervene he believed that despite the protests but what can or will still hold on to power until such a time that when he feels it was no longer tenable for him to stay so the question of whether or not its a cool most of the International Community believe that its a cool because the soldiers took over all government institutions in lock down the airports on land borders into mali and then held leaders like the president and Prime Minister as well as members of the cabinet and other senior government officials. In their custody that well basically very soon the course delegation will be on its way to mali and one of the things expected is that the demand for the release of a broad bulwark of kheta and members of his cabinet whether or not the military will accept that and also real easy by book of kheta remains to be see him and the question is if bramble because kids are easily east will he still be in mali the tsunami is being played with right now is that probably the course delegation may take it. Into exile but that is not what was discussed by the echoes thats not what of course is trying to confirm but that is some of the things that people in mali believe may happen early on of course not malley with a rough tough sanctions and these sanctions of course include the continuous closure of land and. Transactions with money as well as financial inflows from Member States into the country what we know right now is that the minute. As tried to gain Popular Support within the iranian nation its of and already members of the m 5 movement the largest opposition that has been pushing brubaker to to resign from office has endorsed him formally including of course the popular the power broker. Who works up to it or met with be called bloaters and also announce that hes withdrawn from politics thank you for that update ahmed idris across the story from a buddha the u. S. Postmaster general says mail in ballots will be delivered securely and on time for novembers election those to joy is testifying before a Senate Committee of accusations hes trying to sabotage the Postal Service ahead of the vote to joy an ally of President Donald Trump had ordered a financial cut backs but has now suspended all changes following a public outcry about the potential impact on mail in ballots trump has suggested that mail in voting would be susceptible to fraud as we head into the election season i want to assure this committee and the American Public that the Postal Service is fully capable and committed to delivering the nations election manal securely and on time this sacred duty is my number one priority between now and election day how does your castro joins us now live from capitol hill. So how is joy defending himself. Well hes calling these insinuations that he is sabotaging the u. S. Postal service leading up to the elections he says that insinuation is outrageous he also told senators today that he has had no discussion with President Trump or the Trump Campaign regarding these changes that hes implemented to the u. S. Postal service hes been u. S. Postmaster general for 67 days and he says many of these changes predated his arrival and that theyre about cutting costs in this by now actually endangered agency these changes included. Limiting overtime pay for workers as well as getting rid of some mail sorting machines today before the senate panel he reaffirmed that he will postpone further changes until after the election though he said that the changes already made which includes the decommissioning of more than 600. 00 of these mail sorting machines that have led to delays he said that will not be reversed but he did valid that every ballot would be delivered in time to be counted for this president ial election that is a dramatic reversal from the warning that the Postal Service delivered to states a month ago saying essentially that millions of votes cast by mail may be in jeopardy of not being counted in time a president as you said has been very against mail and voting and despite voting by mail himself he has claimed without evidence that mail and voting can lead to massive voter fraud. And we have said that detroit is an ally of President Donald Trump what more do we know about his background.
