Leader Boris Johnson is accused of embarrassing been nation over breaks it by true former Prime Minister its been. My only concern was to get my books out so that i can study and sit my examination is and will meet the sudanese students determined to succeed in the face of devastating floods and in sport i mean our soccer has won the u. S. Open title for a 2nd time the japanese player coming back from a set down to beat Victoria Azarenka in the fall. But we start this news hour in bella bruce where theres been an escalation in violence against protesters the governments has now shut down the countrys internet. While tens of thousands of protesters have flooded the sensor over capital men sgt making their way to one of the president ial compounds that the. We say they have detained at least 250 people protesters are demanding the resignation of president Alexander Lukashenko lets get the latest now from aljazeera step virus and she joins us there on the phone from minsk because the incentives has been shut down in step your the protests weve been showing the latest pictures coming out its of bellerose and it seems a dramatic intervention there from the police but protests are still making their way onto the streets what have you been seeing where you are. Exactly thousands of people have managed to still march on the streets today heading towards one of the residences of x. On the lookout shanta which was quite far they were marching for 2 hours at least to reach this place and thats where we currently are d thousands of people just stand the stuff in front of the park where the residence is located but then this place thought of a Courtesy Call showing the president that they are still here and theyre still on the streets despite all the repression and the tensions that have happened also earlier in the day i should say hundreds of people have been simply snatched off the streets by must men. Driving around and plants and they say we are defiant and we will still stay on the street until you step down to the question because its quite remarkable that were at the situation these protests have been going on for several weeks now and neither side looks to be backing saying and yet these images of quite a violent suppression of the process is if these pictures are making their way out of the country you are monks these protesters how are they reacting to this latest violence intervention from the police and said that the fact that the countrys internet has been closed time though we. Still prefer the afternoon when police all book. Are having difficulty with steps like where understandable under the circumstances we will try and get back to step vasant here is reporting for us live from minsk but lets move on though and whites in the perspective the belarusian president s Alexander Lukashenko is expected to travel to russia on monday for talks with lots of near person for more on that lets cross to alexandra gold for us she joins us now live from moscow alexandra what sort of reception do you think it will receive when he arrives in russia to meet with Vladimir Putin especially given the scenes in bella reuss right now. Yeah so he will for sure be received friendly rebel or us being the partner of russia the only one left on the western side of the western part of russian border but he would be also mad as a person that left no wiggle room in any negotiation that are to come because he asked for this support by the russian president Vladimir Putin who even though he recognized him as a president and congratulated him early on was quiet for a while waiting to see how the situation is going to develop and once russia gave the support open support to belarus it was clear that it will come with a price tag now its a question of how much it will cost. Us this open support for a look at shane cole and for what he is doing in moscow and whilst he might be doing all this violent crackdown today in the streets of us to show that he has things under control whilst we are seeing that he actually doesnt and the protesters are not to be frightened or chased away or intimidated for that matter hes coming here without with all the cards are actually in the hands of a lot to me to put in now what theyre pushing here for 4 years and what the local shango has been resisting so far is finalizing or broadening the integration protests of this Organization Called the union state between russia and belarus and so far he was resistant to to this idea i mean on paper yes it exists and on he was willing to negotiate but he doesnt have that space anymore and to get this support from from russia he will have to back down a bit more over russia also promise that if things get out of control meaning that the protesters become violent this is what they openly said then that they are willing to send to belarus they are reserve Police Forces to help out but what we. Youre seeing for now in belarus is that the protesters are peaceful the violence and the violent arrests are coming from the side of the police and army that is being engaged now on the streets of minsk in case a quite a high stakes meeting some more in russia alexander stay on average gold for reports in the live from moscow thank you very much in deeds. Lets take a call salute the background see this story because it does stretch back quite some time president s look at schenker as maintains a fairly a tight grip on power since 1904 silencing nearly all forms of the cents but he has been facing unprecedented opposition this year a struggling economy and the pandemic have made things even worse now anger against a sword after his disputed reelection in early august his challenger to kind of skier had to flee to lithuania in fear police have cracked down on waves of protests since then and more Opposition Leaders have been forced to flee. For western leaders have criticized russian president Vladimir Putin is backing him for night saying that hes ready to send forces if needed. Well lets speak you know to alina could score shes the director of the globe policy Institute Think Tank and joins us now by skype from bratislava good to have you with us on the aljazeera news are we are in something of a stalemate at the moment what do you think these protests happening this sunday will change if anything. Thank you very much data as you rightly pointed out its a stalemate and the governments has no intention to give in to the demands of the protests thirst neither do the protesters have any time abandon their rebel low spirits and go into the streets i do not think that the protests today will change something in the short trial or immediately but nonetheless this is a very important sign of the government to look south that contrary to what was predicting the protests have the result of conceding you know theyve already been continued for over 5 weeks and they are determined to keep going not which means that look does not have the luxury to go back to business as usually and he will have to deal with a very different population and a very different country besides the economic crisis depend demick crisis he will have to deal with a population that no longer accepts the governmental narrative that everything is great and the countrys going in the right direction and he also will have to deal with a population that currently knows how to organize how to take things in the face into their own hands and how to bring in change and. Were also seeing a bit of a russian elements in all of this with lukashenko set to head to more school on monday how much of a game changer do you think this meeting between lucas shank and putin will be. Russia has been every important factor of a meeting itself is not a game changer but the whole decision of lead in their pool taint so baqouba sent to is a game changer in the situation it was clear at the beginning and that was not quite sure how to approach the situation and whether to support. No match of war at all maybe but to actually consider them to some change of the government in the situation now displayer that is back and look at santa and wants to make sure that he stays in power at least for some time so tomorrow everybody expects that some kind of concession some because the santa will be offered to put sand so continue they support that definitely concerns deep integration within the union saying specifically economic incentive ration already had there been clear promises or of signs that the look of it for example to read and read the boards that were common previously if so they leave for any imports to belarus and look like a seems to be directed to the their wrecked its soul russian ports. And belorussian economy closer and closer to the russian economy of course there will be further promises in terms of the economic integration to justify the Financial Support that putting will have to give to look at the bill of government is to survive the economic crisis so where does this leave the protesters who are trying to get rid of the floods amir peretz and is going to keep him in power. Paying a high price for this but will so the price of the belarusian people going to be paying for the steel. Burgeon people will be paying a heavy price even though they might not trivialize it fully yet definitely in terms of a quantum a but definitely also in terms of political integration and what kind of regime they will have to face a definitely of the closer cooperation between putin and the question case very disheartening to protesters and not because the protesters swear and say russian or and they put in to start with not at all they were rather not given a treat and russia as an important factor in this struggle but now is this clear that they will have to come to what pressure has to say in terms of what protests are going to achieve definitely they have been some signs so protests were trying to show that theyre not anti russian but that at the same time theyre not willing to embrace russia as the country with which they have ready to integrate straight away definitely protesters are in a very difficult situation it is unclear what to do next the besides this very persistence a kind of guerrilla warfare that people arent to run in so again guerilla warfare and not in terms of military position but in terms of trying to do as much damage to the regime or reputation of the regime by smaller means without resorting to straightforward violence but. This will mean that protesters cannot hope for the quick regime change in the short term ok and i could school dance to get your thoughts thank you so much for joining us there from brought us lunch thank you so much overhead the main. Theres lots more still ahead on the news hour including the a protester in violence in Eastern Libya is going on eager for corruption poor Living Conditions. And a different take on freshmeat already coronavirus pandemic is building an appetite for alternatives to us in sports the l. A. Lakers are in the n. B. A. Conference finals for the 1st site in 10 years and they will be here with more later in the show. My the act. To greece now and refugees are being moved to a new sites on the armands of less balsa after their camp burned down earlier this week thousands of people have been sleeping rough since the maria camp europes largest was reduced to ash the refugees are demanding humanitarian assistance and are resisting attempts to relocate them greek police far tear gas at protesters on saturday aljazeera stephanie tacker has more from lesbos where shes been speaking to some of the displaced. There is no coherent aid operation happening at all then were almost you know 4 or 5 days since that fire that you camp thats right behind us theres been a drip of people coming here around 500. 00 now have been moved here over the last 2 days so theyve been testing everyone for corona coming in to the camp from what we understand tends to have more specific numbers about the 10s have tested positive of course this started with 35 refugees having tested positive and they then mingled with the rest of the population so this is of course a concern but yes i think more importantly how are you going to provide shelter food water and a future for these people going to bring in our guest. And she works for the ngo stand by me. Youve been here for a very long time youve seen the situation you saw the fire yourself tell me a little bit about now what are the issues now how difficult is it what are they facing both exactly like youre saying still a lot of people are missing food theyre missing wouldve been missing shelter and also theyre missing medical treatment and psychological treatment which is also highly important in this situation i mean were talking about people who are dealing with no minimum of 4 traumas being their home country to join in more to the fire on top of right now i think this is the fault of everyone and people need to find new solutions in regards to providing aid like for example ourselves we were able to provide aid already today after despite not being able to enter them we just meant. Brandon people the people who couldnt get out they met those there so we met in between we found new solutions to provide aid weve been talking to the refugees they want theyve been here for years many of the waiting for papers to be processed waiting for an answer one of them told us we just won an ulcer yes or no and then you know whether that means we have to go back but its this limbo that has taken a huge toll as you do have tens of thousands of people in refugee camps. With their lives on hold with their cases pending with question marks of whats going to happen so i think you know in that sense at least its an important debate but certainly nothing has been resolved the greek authorities have made it very clear to the people here who want to leave the island that the moment they were believing any time soon. A ship carrying nearly 300 people on the mediterranean is appealing to be allowed into ports the migrants on board were pulled from small boats in 3 different operations in the past week the vessel is being run by the Spanish Charity open arms with an 18000 people have died trying to cross the mediterranean in the past 6 years. A turkish vessel sense its possible oil and gas drilling prospects in the disputed area in the Eastern Mediterranean has returned home tensions flared last month after ankara sent the ship along with a naval escorts both turkey and greece Clean Energy Resources in the area turkeys defense minister says the ships return was shared children does not mean that unca has given up on its rights in the Eastern Mediterranean but the greek Prime Minister has welcomed the ships departure from disputed waters. To quote the return of or trace an ontology as a positive 1st step i sincerely hope that this will continue i said yesterday that the end of the provocations should be the beginning of conversation we never hid the fact that we want to talk with turkey but in a peaceful atmosphere without provocations and without unilateral actions. James carlins is a visiting professor at the London School of economics and specializes in greek turkish relations he says the current tensions stem from dated territorial rules and turkey is calling for a revision. It will be a relief about the ship returning but its you heard it said this doesnt change anything it doesnt change its claims in the Eastern Mediterranean and of course greeces got its position but i think the hope will be that maybe this now might open up a chance to see countries that talk to each other its an incredibly complex problem and a century i mean you know just on the whip through all my history 100 years ago the 2 countries sorted out their borders but times change you know when they set those borders and 1923 in argentina for International Law it was in a very different place and we could explore the roots of those and so that wasnt tension over this but office a Technology Means that weve been able to explore much more deeply. Make discoveries and it jeepers also in the Eastern Mediterranean as International Laws allow countries to claim even more territory and Continental Shelf this is all come together to create this program of the century its all giving the priests by butchie of one particular honey on the lungs. So all these access to claim a lot of resources in the Eastern Mediterranean and this is essential is all about satan is shaped into greek waters and saying look we have every right to claim this is all road and greece obviously say well look were happy to talk about it but we wont talk about it while youre fretting us in this way. Bahrains top shia cleric is rejecting relations with israel and is calling on people across the region to resist grand ayatollah cussons because small scale protests took place inside bahrain the kingdom became the latest arab nation to recognize israel on friday it follows a similar u. S. Brokered deal with the united arab emirates. Several protesters have been injured by police in Eastern Libya it happened in the marsh region which is under the control of warlords hell if i have to the protesters were calling for the resignation of one of have to Security Officials who failed blamed for breaking up and early a rally has been widespread on the rest there with demands for improved Living Conditions and an end to corruption china is in misrata he says people across the country are unhappy with their current Living Conditions. Weve seen for the 3rd straight day protests in Eastern Libya thats in areas such as a bed tobruk. And a modest 7 several civilians were injured but weve also seen the same kind of protest in western libya due to the deteriorating Living Conditions demonstrators say this is because of the lack of Government Services others no cash in the bank so Government Employees or regular employees cant really pull out their salaries from the banks and theres also a long power cuts across the entire country thats in Eastern Libya as well as western libya so weve seen demonstrations protests in western libya in tripoli here in misrata in front of the the municipality and and they say demonstrators are upset because they say corruption has led to a lack of Government Services now the National Oil Corporation has said that the power cuts are and are due to the oil closures so so the diesel and gas feeding the power stations havent been able to do to the the power stations due to the to the oil closures. In the u. K. 2 former Prime Ministers have urged them peace to reject a controversial government bill that calls into question the rules in an earlier withdrawal agreements with the European Union tony blair and john majors say Boris Johnsons proposed bill is quote embarrassing the nation they say it will damage the Peace Process in northern arlens well 1st johnson is proposing changes to the withdrawal agreements on the movement between Northern Ireland and the republic of islands which was put in place to prevent a socalled hard border arlens foreign minister says the move has a rooted trust between the u. K. And ireland the British Government in my view is behaving in an extraordinary way and british people need to know the us because outside of britain where where this issue is being discussed no the reputation of the u. K. And britain as a trusted negotiating partner on important issues like this is being damaged in a very serious way. Well years House Speaker nancy pelosi has warned there will be no trade deal with washington if the British Government undermines the 998 good friday agreement which ended years of conflicts in Northern Irelands good friday accords are very high priority for us democrats and republicans house and senate so that if the u. K. It anything to undermine the good friday accord they should not as i told them in the u. K. For different elements of but as a patient there they should not even think about having a u. S. U. K. I lateral trade agreement. Well to get more on this were joined now by jonathan lists hes the Deputy Director at Advisory Firm british influence and joins me now via skype from london kids and have you with us on the news are like most things to do with bricks and its all extremely technical and extremely complicated but what does appear to be clear is that with this new legislation the British Government says its willing to break International Law why are they prepared to break International Law whats the reasoning behind this well that is a very good question and you take government has not begun to answer it except that theyre going to break International Law the north 3 in the commons this week theyre going to break it in a very specific and limited way but its not a why because the Northern Ireland protocol and withdrawal treaty was agreed in january it was signed by the commons it was agreed or not it was signed by the commons in january we want to cut the consequence of that which was the Northern Ireland which has to be treated differently than the rest the government said that wasnt true now you wish to hide the troops prepared to greater International Law. How much of this is is just bluster because lets not forget the u. K. And the e. U. Are in the middle of a very difficult and very tricky negotiation. There comes a time when the British Government is at a point where it needs to manufacture some kind of bust up in a bid to get the e. U. To budge on some principles or to bring in the german chancellor to fix this is this just a tactical move from the British Government. Well it is a tough call me this a very bad one the qs the European Parliament has already promised to block a trade deal its based law remains on that which is statute so that would really either require e. K. Governments to withdraw this bill from parliament which would be humiliating climbdown or that are not conservative m. P. s block its own legislation which is again a high risk gamble and by no means guaranteed to succeed so he take government has again as weve seen throughout this press a process called excels by by actually removing power from results the bottom line is the e. U. Has to take a stand against this kind of law breaking probably not only because they cant let britain get away with it but if they did let prison get away with it then they would be stacked that note stand exposed and the world and other International Partners and indeed e. U. Member states would also see that they could get away with breaking agreements with the e. U. It would make the e. U. Incredibly weak in the world ok jonathan less there joining us live from london thank you very much for your thoughts. Still ahead its only news are a test for president putin as russians vote in local elections just weeks after reading opposition figure alexina volley was poisoned plus. The.

And refugees on the greek islands of less posts are being moved to a new site after their camp burnt down last week refugees are demanding humanitarian assistance and are resisting attempts to relocate them. And more than a 1000000 people have been displaced by severe flooding in western and Central Africa in the share at least 65 people have died and large parts of the capital remain under water the share is one of the worlds driest countries but the rainy season has intensified in recent years which has been linked to Climate Change the suburbs of senegals capital dakar are still under water earlier this month there was more rain in a single day what the country usually experiences in the entire rainy season since president markey saw has launched an emergency aid plan to help people in the aids and in sudan hundreds of thousands of people displaced by heavy flooding are calling for more help their homes were destroyed by the worst flooding in a century tens of thousands of students are among those whose lives are being disrupted have a morgan reports from khartoum on home many are struggling to keep up with their studies. Just hours left before ryann jaffer and her colleagues sit for sudans general High School Certificate examination in the capital how to its a requirement to be able to get into university but after she and her family lost their home in the floods that prospect seemed almost impossible. Because my only concern was to get my books out so that i can study and sit in my examinations its hard weve lost everything weve lost a house and that is hard we were inside and the river just flooded and we lost everything. Her colleague had also lost her family home in the floods that had village in the northern part of a week ago said its unfair that im too soon homesick that the floods came in and took away everything that homes were destroyed and we ended up on the streets near the main road the government gave us tents and people from the area gave us a place to stay and study and so we can prepare for examinations the examinations which are usually held in march every year have been postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic so then the government sets up demba 13 as the new date more than 150000. 00 students will take part in the capital alone a rise in the river to levels not seen in more than a century caused devastating floods in many parts of sudan its led the government to declare a state of emergency and announced the country as a Natural Disaster zone more than 100. 00 people were killed and hundreds of thousands displaced schools in several towns and villages were among the damaged properties tens of thousands of those displaced by the floods are School Students and many are due to sit for their high school general certificate this year but for those students sitting for the examination to guarantee seats in universities in the future is hard when their families have lost most or all of their belongings. So dan has set up a committee to deal with the impacts of the floods the head of the Committee Says the government is working to ensure that students around the country take the exam as scheduled every day theres theyre basically checking on on all the ministries of education in the different states to check on whats to ration is the center that people need to go and have exams form of what is the situation were talking about the people the affected the numbers of the people who are going to for exams and they said theyre assessing the situation on daily basis so hopefully were hoping that you know its going to be something that fits the needs of the people the levels of the mile have started to drop but those affected see what theyve been through already is enough. I didnt want the exams to be held at a time like this its hard she and her colleagues see theyll have to sit for the exams and hope for the best despite their very difficult circumstances people morgan aljazeera hearts on mollies main opposition groups is the military who enters drawings according to power after last months crew on saturday the military and political groups agreed on a plan for the countrys future which included an 18 month long Transitional Government but the opposition is distancing itself from that announcement. The m. 5 r. Of p. Denounces be intimidation antidemocratic and unfair practices worthy of another era against which the fight for change and Re Foundation has been waged by the desire to grab and confiscate power for the benefit of the jointer cannot justify the methods used which weaken the transition process. Millions of russians are casting their ballots in a number of local elections there voting for members of regional parliaments municipalities and governors sunday is the 3rd and final day of voting held over several days because of the pandemic the poisoning of the main Opposition Leader alexina vall me and the corona virus pandemic of cast a shadow on the votes well the elections are being held a year ahead of parliamentary polls and are being seen as a referendum on president Vladimir Putins popularity the poisoning of alexina vaal me has cast a shadow his supporters have been campaigning for candidates who will challenge the governments in the elections this is the 2nd time russians are voting in a major election the pandemic economy is struggling and millions of people are unemployed where protests in the far Eastern Region of khabarovsk have been happening for 2 months now i and some suggest the unrest in belarus may have an impact or bend the will is a lecturer in russian politics at the University College london he says Opposition Leader alexina volley supporters have organized tactical voting to challenge kremlin backed candidates. Well what theyre trying to do is to chip away at the kremlins image of invincibility that the kremlin completely controls elections if through smart voting the vani and his team can demonstrate that there is scope for competition that there is scope for opposition success then that might lead to a Snowball Effect and thats something that the kremlin is incredibly worried about this is a real a dress rehearsal for next year is elections for the state duma those absolutely crucial and we have to bat one thing in mind united russia which is the party supported by the kremlin at the beginning of 2018 has an Approval Rating above 50 percent now that Approval Rating is just about 30 and thats really worrying for the crime then because they really want to receive a constitutional or some type of majority in the federal parliament because without that we might see a very different type of politics in russia hussein has been able to command the country partly because he has been able to rely on a majority of united russia within the parliament if they lose that majority then things could be different and said the kremlin is trying to see what happens in these local and Regional Elections to calibrate maybe what they might have to change what they might need to do differently Going Forward for the 2021 federal parliamentary elections.
