Ahead of peace talks between the Afghan Government and the taliban. A cry for freedom refugees burned out of the camps on the greek island of lets cross demand that they be allowed to head for mainland europe. And france records its biggest rise in coronavirus cases in months with over 10000 cases of the government decides against any new restrictions. On its force or anyone who is one becoming a record 24th grand slam title just yes the american has been knocked out by Victoria Azarenka in the semifinals of the u. S. The gulf state of bahrain has agreed to normalize relations with israel as just days. Before the United Arab Emirates signs a formal agreement establishing ties with the stays the us President Donald Trump announced the deal on twitter speaking to the leaders of both countries on friday israels Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu says that its a new era of peace we have 3 correspondents on this breaking story that abraham is in ramallah for the palestinian perspective harry for citizen west true slim but 1st lets go to kimberly how cute is standing by for us at the white house kimberly one of the further in the camp of president trip or at least thats the way hes trying to present it ahead of novembers election. No question about it we started hearing about the rumors about this phone call that the president had had but all reporters here at the white house found the news out about the same time the rest of the world and that is as you mentioned with a tweet here is what the u. S. President said another historic breakthrough today our 2 great friends of israel in the kingdom of bahrain agreed to a peace deal the 2nd arab country to make peace with israel in 30 days so the u. S. President talking about the agreement that has already been secured in terms of normalizing diplomatic relations between israel and the United Arab Emirates in fact we already know that there has been a commercial Airline Flight that has travel between the 2 nations and in fact we are told that delegations are now traveling freely to the between those 2 airports now the white house saying that they are building upon that mbox raid will be joining representatives from the u. A. E. Here at the white house on tuesday for the signing of this agreement the u. S. President saying that this is just the beginning he is promising more agreements in the future. This is now the 2nd Peace Agreement that weve announced in the last month and i am very hopeful that there will be more to follow i can tell you theres tremendous enthusiasm on behalf of other countries to also join and we think ultimately youll have most countries join and you can have the palestinians. In a very good position they want to come in theyre going to want to come in because all of their friends are in and if as you say kimberly the president has one eye on the election as he is announcing all of this who is it that he is aiming this information after me just the American Public particularly care about this will it matter versus. It is not high on the agenda of most American Voters but it is high in the agenda of a good portion of trumps supporters and that is the Christian Community and more specifically evangelicals who have always held israel in very high esteem would like to see pro israel policies which is something that the us president has delivered on including moving the us embassy from tel aviv to jerusalem but the president needing to build on that is trying to show that he has brought about a success in something he has not achieved and that is the socalled deal of the century where he had promised to try and bring a bring about an agreement between israel and the palestinians given the fact that that has not is not a promise kept on the campaign trail or in his 1st term hes now intimating that its in the works both for me and i will secure it in my 2nd term and so thats what we see in the president do with respect to these agreements hes acting as if this is a framework that will bring about that socalled deal of a century yet we know that it is so far apart given the fact that the president and his or ministrations representatives are not even talking to the palestinians right now so in terms of what this is many could argue its a bit of a smokescreen but the u. S. President also did this just one day earlier when his administrations press secretary kelly mcenaney said the president is keeping his promise ending the endless wars as he calls them at the same time the announcement of a withdrawal whether it be for troops in iraq or even in afghanistan theres been no withdraw at all in fact its just been a draw down which is hardly a promise kept a White House Correspondent kimberly how could reporting live from washington to anybody thanks lets take you now to west jerusalem not just here as her before so it is for us Prime Minister netanyahu another politician who needs a deal like this right now. Certainly hes under an enormous amount of domestic pressure chiefly because of the out of control nature of the corona virus pandemic which has been really ripping through israel for weeks now and in the last few days more than 4000 cases a day have been reported and so israel according to the governments coronavirus Cabinet Meeting which broke up on thursday is going into another very painful very severe nationwide lockdown next thursday so there is a great deal of discontent with how the government has managed the coronavirus situation of course is also on trial in 3 separate Corruption Cases that is due to start its evidentiary phase with witnesses and netanyahu appearing at the court day by day in january so this kind of thing certainly. Does take attention away from those sorts of very damaging issues and it is something that he has a spouse as very important for israel for many years throughout his Prime Ministership he has tried to portray himself as the steward of Israeli Security as someone who has been trying to get these alliances especially in the face of iran together in the middle east and he came out with a statement rarely on a jewish sabbath after sunset on friday welcoming this saying he was moved by it calling it a new era of peace and once again talking about his new catch phrase peace for peace instead of land for peace a signal that hes talking about no need to give up any physical territory inside the occupied west bank in return for these normalize ties with arab nations indeed he did have to suspend his plans for an exception but even in the settler communities there are many who say that that is a price worth paying and so he is saying that that israel can move ahead essentially putting the palestinian. Issue entirely to one side and start to reap the economic benefits as well as the political and diplomatic benefits of these ties. Many thanks. Live in west jerusalem secure not true ramallah syrias need to bring him is that whats been the reaction to this. Strong condemnation weve seen a statement from the p. L. O. The Palestine Liberation Organization calling this a betrayal to the palestinian cause and as if theyre just devising this is really what is the. Problem now weve spoken to. Officials very close to the president more about whos he said in the region between the palestinians and between the arabs and israel will not happen without it without with that we cannot happen without solving the palestinian issue and he also said that numerous agreements. As well as. Normalizing relations with israel wouldnt have happened without the regional backing and weve seen the palestinians disappointed to that because i think by that a week in which the Palestinian Foreign minister has encouraged the ministers to adopt a palestinian draft resolution that condemns that the u. A. E. Deal with israel forced out not top and. Indians the arab league did not even respect its head resolutions the Arab Peace Initiative which is a result of a draft resolution out of position from the arab sheik says that the should between arab states and israel should only happen after the end of this radio occupation of course this isnt top and israeli Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu talked about suspending annexation on the ground of course many people here say thats the beheadings statement didnt. Even have some sort of a lip service for the palestinians to kind of show that theyre known as they should be with israel has benefits the palestinians in any way shape or form but they say if it was given was a kind of a free now as for the palestinians they say theyre left with options to do but to unite we know that there has been a split between the west bank and gaza for years and that needs to meeting between faction be there is has also it was joined by Islamic Jihad and have massive officials including. And yet the top hamas in the there in which he says that you know they are going to be united they are going to be putting a framework to and if that Palestinian Division so it has as far as moving forward palestinians say they are looking good work. Out a serious need to abraham reporting live from ramallah lets speak now to nearby the author of the gulf region israel old struggles new alliances hes in washington d. C. Good to have you with us so what do you make of this. Thank you very much a horny opportunity i think that what were seeing now is a strategic shift goals is Relations Just so. We could go when the. Companys duration and now instead of more states would follow the u. A. E. Most observers believe that saudi arabia and bahrain have made their positions clear would you say that normalization would be tied to progress on the Israeli Palestinian front and that is how most observers read it at the time now what. Has followed do you need then you know where is the bahrain to the intensive follow the saudi lead on regional matters piers i didnt know the possibility of saudi arabia even john. Joining the u. S. And bahrain is the real possibility and if that happens there is a strategic change if you will and gulf is very bullish its the stakeholders in this. As an historic peace till its its not historic and its not a place to lose it well i think it is historic we know that. Qatar and oman in the past have had diplomatic relations with israel but. When progress on the Israeli Palestinian front collapsed they sever for their own reasons that money ties with the Digital State now are seeing that there is no movement on the Israeli Palestinian violence and still you see the unity and the brain making who are signing Peace Agreements with israel so that is that is used for house there rabia moves forward whether or not they joins the line or for not i think whats important is that saudi arabia indirectly is supporting it and we will horse see in the next coming week whether or not the saudi arabia will and youll indeed join join ranks where does this leave the palestinians now. I think the palestinians are in a very tough position he does the palestinians so far as rallied on arab support for their d positions because of the israel the consensus as a respect that it would be a 2 state solution with East Jerusalem in the capital and i do think that. Enough i think that the palestinian is in a better position now and i tell you why because when the United Arab Emirates decided to normalize i think if you will in exchange for all the not an exception it leaves the door open for a 2 state solution in which israel could withdraw from the occupied territories and a settlement blocks and return got to do a future palestinian state india bents that direct talks between israel and palestine takes place and i do think that. Crane together with u. A. E. Will put extensive pressure on israel to do. The sessions really gets talked to so many thanks indeed for being with us. In washington. Thank you. This is the news still to come on the Program China and india agreed to disengage their troops of the disputed border area days off the shots were fired for the 1st time in decades iranians cast their ballots in round 2 of a parliamentary vote that was delayed due to the pandemic. And sport will hear what bosler as manager has to say about. Being forced to stay at the club. Protesting refugees on the greek out of the boss the demanding permission to leave to travel to the mainland. Theyve spent 3 nights without shelter after files destroyed their camp food is in short supply of water or so europes biggest refugee camp the greek government though wont allow them on to the mainland and is working to put them into tents at a chartered ships. Says the area camp and says that families there have nowhere to go. Definitely the feelings of persistence among refugees here who want to be allowed to leave and at the moment that being denied it seems even basic comforts people who fled moria because because it was burnt on tuesday and wednesday nights have now camped out here on avenue that runs through an Industrial Zone on the island and as you can see that bedding down on concrete pavements beside the asphalt there is a road block on either side of the section of the road both to protect and to protect the Asylum Seekers here from traffic and also to prevent them from leaving because the government wants them to stay here and to have their asylum cases heard out here because that way if any are rejected it is easier to deport them back to turkey but also because less force island has now become a vector for corona virus and it is feared that if these people are relocated to camps on the mainland then they may spread the virus there among refugee populations there is well this has in fact happened in the last year weve seen it happen in a camp in the pipe unease which had to be locked down as a result so here they are although the government says it is providing them with food and water at the moment if not shelter some of them have told us that they havent received any such consideration. Go look at how the European Union has been reacting as this crisis in greece unfolds. This is the reality for the thousands of refugees on the greek island of last boss caught between the streets and an even more precarious future. And these are the politicians who are tasked with finding a solution to a crisis that has been gnawing at the European Union after 5 years of attempts and acknowledgement from brussels that it has so far failed to come up with a comprehensive plan by 2006. Because a number of its. Green. Leaves. Not a good. This is where that failure is being felt most on the roads where makeshift tents housed those left with nowhere to stay but only 10 Member States have offered to take in the most vulnerable of those left stranded body s. 406. 00 unaccompanied children with france and germany taking up 150. 00 each they are the only ones who will be able to leave the island for now germanys interior minister defended the decision not to take in more people. If we as the federal republic of germany believe that we can solve the european asylum policy on our own then the year 2015 will be repeated because there wont be a european solution anymore there are also worries over the spread of the pandemic at least 35 people tested positive for the virus last week and only 8 have been found since the burning down of the camp. Poland austria and denmark are among the 17 e. U. Members who are giving assistance to greece the shelter and medical equipment these tents were set up on the islands military base local residents have grown impatient and angry with the increasingly overcrowded camps have complained that not enough has been done to help those refugees stuck in less boss situation is a happy time for us and for the other greek who have been admirable since the beginning and welcome the refugees and now quite rightly i got. You know im having to answer for the rest of the European Union at least 33000 people have crossed the Mediterranean Sea to europe so far this year holding cows for those wanting to escape war and hardship have failed to provide a lasting solution and it is a problem that is not going away anytime soon. Aljazeera the u. S. Secretary of states has arrived in qatar ahead of saturdays peace talks on afghanistan so has a 21. 00 member Afghan Government allegations that will be taliban representatives mike pompei oh says he expects negotiations to be contentious but that the only way forward if decades of conflict are to end is the next stage of a peace deal brokered by washington with the taliban in february. Michael how difficult is conversation to be among the m. P. s but its there for the taking its their country. To figure out how to move forward and make it better life let him be their series if its not a mate if everything to follow through on the market to produce a serious condition of executing their obligations that it remains a very clear about their responsibility to terrorist activity taking place in afghanistan that is plotting against external external operating plotting its great the head of the Afghan Governments delegation says the progress of the talks is crucial for the countrys development and james rules mull made one on one today with hope and confidence we are heading to doha to build an of guns tanweer no more guns go off and we hope the values of the republic us truth and in the people of afghanistan achieve the Economic Development they deserve omar samad was the former afghan ambassador to france and canada and the spokesperson for the Afghanistan Ministry of Foreign Affairs he joins us now live from washington d. C. Via skype good to have you with us so what are the prospects for these talks to you phil. Prospects are in my view better than any time in the past if you compare afghanistan over the last 19 years and if you really are afghans look at the last quarter decades as was alluded to by secret. This is a country we know that has seen nothing but continued warfare in killing and bloodshed for the past 4 decades so this is the moment when if shift can take place we can end the prospect of violence and put black chapter behind us and afghans can take the path to peace but its going to be difficult about this going to be a challenge and its going to be i think im consuming not an easy target or not an easy. Duty to perform and in the circumstances the taliban are one side and the rest of the afghan Political Community on the other side what would a peace deal between the Afghan Government and the taliban look like how much influence would the taliban end up with over daily life in the country. Well a lot depends on the situation on the ground right so on one hand you have a part of our own who control over certain major chunks of the 2 trees of afghanistan and then you have the Government Forces who have control over the rest and you have some parts of the country that actually are competitive between the 2 and those are printed large stretches of land as well what will happen at some point is that they have to agree to a political road map you have to agree to an agenda you have to agree to what issues to bring up 1st one side would like to bring up the issue of. Cease fire and stopping the fighting the unassigned would like to see the cease fire occur over time maybe in steps or maybe tied to some kind of a transition period of in afghanistan so these are going to be some very difficult issues that will be brought up but i am hopeful that with International Support for this process and the fact that the Afghan People after all these years would really like to see an end to to warfare that the 2 sides will be able to not only a comedy of each other also well be able to compromise in mexico on certain certain issues in find solutions along the way you say compromise you dont see a return to the old days of suppression of freedoms or of womens rights when the taliban were in control of the country. I dont think there are many people in afghanistan who would like to see a return to those days i think that those days are past. Bleak you know the history of our honest our afghanistan has gone through several periods under the communist in them and several war and in part of our in the last 20 years have not been easy but if people are honest either so what we need to do is make sure that we understand what are the fundamental rights of the Afghan People that have to be protected in the app to be preserved and what are the issues where we can count terms on a new model or a new. Set of principles that we can all agree on would be forward other countries up on it theres no reason why a. Really good to talk to so many thanks indeed omar samad in washington the Us House Committee on Intelligence Service held a hearing to assess security ties between washington and saudi arabia that covered a range of issues including the war in yemen and the mother of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi in the un special rapporteur on extrajudicial killings agnes cullum are addressed the hearing she says that shes murdered demonstrates why the u. S. Should be wary of saudi arabia the skiing of one of mr cassidy by the state of saudi arabia in mind you point to a dangerous recklessness couple and we certainly see this that comes only when its unique steen we. Further evidence has come to light that suggest a pattern of targeting has refs meant and strained against those individual steps to disagree of threaten the crown prince for use road anyone can be at risk saudis and on saudis political d. C. Dont social Media Influencers and even when i think economic activists and in response to that there should be multidimensional crime supported response by the United States and the International Community live out of capitol hill out of there as hydro castro can tell us more what else to we learn from this meeting heidi. Well its interesting that this meeting occurred nearly 2 years after the dissident journalist Jamal Khashoggi entered the saudi consulate in istanbul never to come out alive but as you just heard from the u. N. Special repertoire on executions agne callum ard she says that to this day show she has not received justice and what happened to him cannot be forgotten she did now the trial in saudi arabia that just wrapped up this week putting 8 of these killers on trial and it with the computations of 5. Executions into prison sentences as well as prison sentences for the 3 remaining defendants but this was a widely considered to be a sham trial by the International Community because of its lack of transparency the defendants the convicted never named all of these proceedings happening behind closed doors now calum are also said that this was saudi arabias way of appeasing allies by targeting those hidden who carried out the killing however did not try to hold accountable the high u. S. Officials who ordered this killing take place and she was very direct telling the House Intelligence Panel that there is no doubt that the crown Prince Mohammed bin someone was involved in the show she is killing and she recommended that saudi arabia be barred from hosting the upcoming g. 20 and that the crown prince himself should be sanctioned she is a backed up and the conclusion of of the crown princes involvement by the u. S. Intelligence who long ago believed that to be the case and we saw Congress Take action shortly after killing him passing a bipartisan resolution that named the crown prince as complicit but then you see u. S. President donald trump taking the opposite stance steadfastly defending the crown prince to this day in fact in soon to be published memoir a book written by a vet. And Journalist Bob Woodward of trump is said to have bragged to woodward back in january that he quote saved the crown princes expletive by protecting him from the u. S. Congress i was there as hard as your castro lives there in washington d. C. How do many thanks indeed Chinas Foreign Ministry says that both india and china have a responsibility to keep communicating of the growing tension on the disputed border at a meeting with Foreign Ministers in moscow wearing a said that theyve agreed to compromise and to deescalate the situation it comes days after shots were fired across the border for the 1st time in 45 years in june 20 indian soldiers were killed in hand to hand combat the chinese troops in the region trying to kojo should be the top priority now is not to break our promises and not to open fire this is our agreement reached a long time ago opening fire is not allowed because it will lead to a bad ending also we should withdraw our personnel and equipment completely from the frontline in this way we can implement the consensus and restore peace and stability along the border on this basis we can continue our dialogue in negotiations and provide necessary conditions for solving the border issues you are willing to keep communication with india steve saying is a political scientist who says that both countries are moving in the right direction. What we are seeing really is the recognition on the part of senior diplomats of both countries of how very dangerous the situation has developed and therefore they want to found ways to ease the tension but reality is we manged the situation on the ground motion remains very high on both sides in terms of their military personnel at the border region and so the fact that a Foreign Ministers are talking doesnt necessarily means the situation on the ground who and if the situation on the ground thats not improved risk remains of a potential unintended escalation i think who which side is the more aggressive one really is somewhat is sized opponent i dont think either side has been particularly well behaved in the last confrontation and i think the fact that the chinese have been very very cautious in releasing to casualty figures which suggest that the Public Police of a higher casualties than the indians and that with mixed the military on the chinese are very uncomfortable and the fact that the commander of the in the indian battalion that was killed in the last hand to hand combat also means that the indian troops are very emotionally involved so i dont think were going to see that on military to military talks been very effective.

Protesting refugees are demanding permission to leave the precut of the less force and go to the made land fall zone spent another night without shelter after fires destroyed europes largest refugee camp earlier in the week. The french government says that it wont impose a new nationwide lockdown despite a big rise in the number of corona virus cases france reported nearly 10000 new infections over the past 24 hours the number of patients in intensive care units is also risen creating concern about the Health Systems ability to cope the virus has links to more than 30000 deaths in france and cases are just on the rise in france heres a look at the global picture 6 months off of the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a pandemic there are now more than. 28000000. 00 confirmed cases of covert 19 according to the Johns HopkinsUniversity Track infection rate is growing faster in india than anywhere else in the world there are more than 4500000. 00 cases that and the u. S. Remains the worst affected country with the highest number of infections and deaths things are looking up in new york city which was once the epicenter of the pandemic in the u. S. The number of deaths linked to covert 19 are in the Single Digits now and the infection rate is substantially but life in the city that famously never sleeps still isnt what it once was not a serious. Reports. New york city is slipping through a strange moment in time balancing what you see and signs of trouble ahead the good new yorkers are out again dining in temporary outdoor patio on the streets the bad Indoor Dining remains pretty good since march to help prevent a 2nd wave in the virus so restaurants are struggling many have been forced to close taking with them the jobs that so many rely on to support their families in times square a pickup in activity and signs of something not seen in this city for months 2 or is some but still nowhere close to prepared demick levels some stores are reopening but others are not. With occupancy rates still below 40 percent dozens of hotels are closing for good including this hilton that said he could no longer survive with so few guests after 911. 00 there was a rallying cry that if new york could come back from the biggest terrorist attack on u. S. Soil he could come back from anything but the pandemic is testing that clearly taking more of a toll on the city and its people 2793 people were killed on september 11th in the world trade towers so far more than 23000 people in new york city have lost their lives because of coronavirus 100000 new yorkers lost their jobs as a direct result from the 2001 terrorist attack so far more than 1000000 new yorkers have lost their jobs because of the pandemic and the Unemployment Rate is about 19 percent in the city about the same levels as it was during the Great Depression a city living in a clash between slowly returning to normal but not knowing exactly what normal is anymore gabriel is onto his eda new york. Talks upon argus is assistant professor at the Johns Hopkins school of medicine he joins us now live from Baltimore Scott good to have you with us dr here we are 6 months into the pandemic and weve been seeing this thing yes. Well its everyones 1st cant at mc and. Its a repeating this thing its hard to say i think theres definitely regions of the world who are doing really well by recognizing the biology of the virus recognizing how it spreads theyre doing the appropriate actions to mitigate that spread right from physical distance saying face masking chronic cant hygiene limiting their times and public spaces so i do think certain regions of the world are doing really well and other regions we definitely need to allocate more resources allocate more consistent messaging in order to help them even being here in the United States one of the things that always bothers me it seems such a heterogeneous effect of this nation are certain cities are doing great certain regions are doing great and others are not that kind of heterogeneity is not going to do well for a country because its going to keep it struggling so we beating it out i think the answer is a mix of yes and no parts yes of the world other parts are not while we wait for a vaccine then the dilemma facing many of the worlds governments. Seems to be that that choice between saving lives and protecting life. Yes so i mean the challenge with any Public Health issue any Public Health disaster is that it may blind us from other Public Health crises that are happening and i fully recognize that this medical this health issue that is the viral pandemic that is rob people of their lives there are health and economic ramifications every governments got to try to figure out how do we adopted this. You know im a im a physician im a scientist i dont speak on those economic ramifications but i do believe that we can all Work Together in this right we can transcend our professional criteria and priorities in order to assimilate to this pandemic and the reason why i am to size that is unlike your other natural disasters a year or a hurricane or a snowstorm or an earthquake those are usually constrained by time and place you can you can kind of let life be disrupted for a little bit and reemerge this pandemic its here for the foreseeable future i mean i know were trying to get to a vaccine but thats not in the near future ok so we have to figure out because i do assimilate were both Public Health crises economically and the Health Consequences and live at the same time right we how do we assimilate to this how do we do a public appropriate Public Health measures where the population feels at ease and the consequence against the economy also is medicated so i do i my heart goes out to every Government Official that has to wait weeks but i would really emphasize especially as a physician especially someone whos been in the intensive care units managing these patients dont put a price on lives right millions dying all at once would be worse for any economy what will just be worse for humanity or also and want to be my plea and i think we can do both at the same time and once we get a safe effective vaccine bit later this year early next year sometime 2021. How quickly before the pen demick goes away i mean once weve got a vaccine is that it and the pandemic is over. Right so youre a physician and scientists and Public Health official you know what we what we preach is what will really put an end to this pandemic is having an immunity having the ability to have our own immune system if we should unfortunately catch the virus we can attack appropriately minimal symptoms of any or if the vaccines very effective in a different way it will stop the transmission altogether right so well put an end to sars could be to you know our fingers are crossed for a vaccine over the last you know 50 plus years we recognize how the Vaccine Technology and science continues to advance in order to be prepared against Mother Nature and what she may throw at us but at the same time. The piece of science is one thing that we can control after that a piece of Vaccine Distribution that is you know going back to a government conversation i understand theyre trying to figure out how to mitigate the impact negatively on the economy and they should also be thinking how do we get the vaccine to our population specifically in those populations who have been disproportionately impacted by this virus here in america are minority populations both in race and ethnicity as well as those who are disadvantaged from associate omics you know they are being ravaged by the virus and being in the intensive care unit and back in the spring and returning vets fall this weekend back in the cold in 1000 intensive care units the same population is being impacted nothing is changed in regards to what any consequence of ship and demographics are so sick and i mix that is so my plea is the end to creating a vaccine is the end of the chapter for science that next check and thats the most vital you know economy the governments how do we all Work Together to disseminate that vaccine to the appropriate people that this virus has been targeting and impacting disproportionately and so i agree with you its not the end of the story its just the end of a chapter to this pandemic really really good stewards heat up so many thanks indeed but i guess going to santos the in baltimore and you so much water borne diseases and a growing threat ensued done following the woods floods that a century at least 100 people have died 100000 homes destroyed or damaged but the river rose to its highest level since records began more now from 0 to 0 is hit morgan in co 2. Sudanese officials are reporting that the water from the nile river is receding gradually and that they expect the levels to return back to what they see is normal within the coming 2 weeks but the concern right now is the amount of stagnant water that has gone into neighborhoods into villages into areas where people are residing their concerns of water borne diseases medics have been reporting an increase in the number of cases of the horrors here and they say that people have been complaining about.
