Activists keep many away. His life was the inspiration for a hollywood movie a critic of rwandas president is arrested on terror charges its. Hello dozens of detained opposition politicians have walked free from prison in venezuela after being pardoned by president Nicolas Maduro some have been accused of attempting to overthrow the government theyve been released ahead of elections in december the government says its a goodwill gesture but its widely seen as an attempt to boost participation in the vote some candidates are boycotting its over concerns about cheating are latin america editor of the seer newman has more in. The show well see you know maybe i did as well as. Communication minister was unexpected they get it out of people every minute decree article one the president ial pardon is granted to the citizens i will not mention pardons before elections arent new but the magnitude of these your community are not of the. Same clue did scores of prominent government foes like the program tonight a little opposition little idols chief of staff. For any give out whos been in the Chilean Embassy for nearly 2 years was the savile hed been battling all Political Prisoners or opposition deputies in hiding or in exile all of them accused of treason and more. As a warm up to the pardons venezuelas most emblematic political prisoner of one click a sense was released late friday and put under house arrest still accused of plotting to kill president Nicolas Maduro which he denies that. The list of pardons is long but excludes Opposition Leader one by little and little by little opus both of whom a little has vowed to put behind bars for alleged crimes against the state the Government Strategy is obvious the school if you will middle. Number one objective is to gain legitimacy for decembers parliamentary elections its essential even as russian and chinese emmas are demanding some sort of recognition of the polls so for that to happen there has to be participation in the elections from at least part of the internationally recognized opposition feliks a has says the pardons may be just a 1st major step. Another concession could be to allow major parties and candidates barred from taking part in elections to run after all that could include twice president ial candidate and a good capitalist who believes that boycotting the poll would be even worse the competing in an uneven Playing Field was one why though whose record. By more than 50 countries as venezuelas interim president has given opposition parties until the end of the week to publicly join him in a united front to boycott an election that is widely considered uncompetitive not to be outdone the government has extended the period from registering candidates until friday is completely in israel is waiting to see what more concessions mughal may be willing to make to try to solve the general election that he may win at the polls but not in legitimacy unless his foes take part you see in human aljazeera hamas says its reached an agreement with israel to end the latest escalation of violence along the israel gaza border the deal brokered by qatar comes as gaza struggles under a ban on fuel deliveries which have led to power cuts very fast that has more details from west jerusalem. Well its all coming from the hamas side which is typical in these sorts of situations israel tends not to say anything about these announcements of the escalations or cease fires but according to israeli media there are Israeli Defense sources who are confirming what hamas is saying at least to the extent that there is an agreement what hamas says about this agreement is that it will stop its in century balloon launches an explosive balloon launches as well as that the what it calls its night time confusion operations where groups go along the border fence and throw explosives and cause disruption and in return it says that israel is undertaking to go back to the previous collation situation which means allowing fisherman out into the mediterranean again from gazas ports easing the restrictions of goods coming in which had been closed down just to humanitarian goods and food and medicine and also presumably the recent restoration of fuel supplies to gaza only power station which has been lying idle for some 10 days now since the fuel supplies were cut off meaning that gaza only has about 3 to 4 hours of electricity per day and as you say they are also battling this corona Virus Outbreak the 1st community coronaVirus Outbreak since the start of the pandemic so these various things seem to have conspired to try to quell the situation as it stands with the mediation of the qatari envoy the question is whether the Infrastructure Projects that hamas also says have been agreed to with some qatari funding whether they will now get off the ground. To us the 2 u. S. President ial candidates are blaming each other for violence at recent protests across the country donald trump has accused the left wing protesters from the unrest and also claimed his democratic rival joe biden had given more aid to vandals but the president s critics say trump is creating an atmosphere of hate and division biden says hes poisoning the nations values my cannas following the latest developments from washington so whats been the president s reaction to his critics like biden. Well President Trump has been tweeting for a long period of time now in all caps law and order and this is clearly a one off the platforms on which he is going to base his president ial campaign in the coming months leading to novembers election he lashed out at joe biden at a News Conference painting him as a weak on law and order saying that he has been aligned himself with what President Trump called the left wing off american politics saying that the whole Democratic Party had been taken over by what he called the left wing since been referring to the racism protesters as and looters and ill kiss in recent days hes still to condemn the shooting in which a self professed supporter of his own has been charged with a double murder so the president continuing to push the side that joe biden is aligned with the forces of the left and this is what he has to say about those whove been protesting in the streets. Is a rioters these are dangerous people these are killers they kill a lot of people and they dont even think of murder they wake up the next morning i dont even think about it this is the extreme left agenda for america they want to appoint radical prosecutors judges in vero visuals who rules that criminals freed. Well joe biden earlier made his 1st Campaign Speech since accepting the Democratic Party nomination as president and he lashed out at President Trump in turn saying that not only was president incapable of ending the violence but that he was also for meant 100 joe biden pointing to the armed militia who say they support President Trump who President Trump has urged to stage counter protesters against the anti racism demonstrators so members of the Democratic Party have been critical of joe biden for being rather muted with regard to donald trump but certainly this Campaign Speech on this day making very clear that this is no longer that joe biden is going to go on the attack just as he has been under attack and mike hows the president s upcoming visit to kenosha wisconsin being viewed. Well by some of the people in commotion wisconsin its being viewed with great trepidation the mayor of cannot share has already said that the timing is bad he would prefer it if the president didnt come and the governor of wisconsin a ropes the president a letter pleading for him to postpone the visit this is exactly what the the governor said and i quote i am concerned your presence will not only hinder our healing i am concerned your presence will only delay our work to overcome division and move Forward Together but President Trump has brushed aside these concerns he says hes going to go ahead with this visit he wants to speak to law and order personnel as president puts it he has not spoken to the family of the man that was shot and paralyzed by Police Last Week although joe biden has President Trump saying they want to get a lawyer involved in the conversation so he didnt think it was appropriate so its certainly going to bring a great deal of tension to can osha in the next 24 hours all right mike hanna thank you for that update from washington.
