Radical demonstrators have repeatedly used to dangerous weapons we see them to attack police officers. The police are also suspected she often cited on television frauds and framing the protesters for these acts. Its not just bad became the use of fakes because. Something might be good. Also on the day a slight easing of restrictions in india administered kashmir but Security Forces for the most part kept the dispute it reaches the biggest city center in a gar lockdown on the 2nd day of the islamic holy festival. That we among many using of emotion that one moment you might even have night with the next moment you will have to go you know i think it is not knowing what is going back home and when we meet you at home as you left. Your viewers on p. B. S. In the United States and all around the world a very warm welcome thousands and thousands of prodemocracy activists use their sheer numbers to show. Shutdown hong kongs busy commercial airport it was an Old Fashioned sit in and it halted all flights coming in and going out all part of the antigovernment protests that have swept the city over the past 2 months china which holds power over hong kong says the protests have begun to show quote sprouts of terrorism words that legal experts fear could lead to the use of anti terror laws and harsh crackdowns and say here is an idea of what frustrated airport passengers an angry protesters were saying at Hong Kong International i think. We didnt expect theyd go all the way inside but its ok because theyre well behaved theyre actually very nuts theyre not intimidating. Its just that our flight was cancelled but i think well be able to go home tomorrow and. Theres a kind of increase in campinas all selfishness to post a lot of people but. We can all boy just just somehow know im not bored of it because we fight for our final goal that is all freedom. And our correspondent she becomes spent the day the evening and night at Hong Kong International airport. Hotel International Airport is one of the p. C. s the airport even though was that over a 1000 of lifes depart and arrive at these aviation happen every day the aim of the post has this is not just to paralyze the airport itself they want to stress that the month and the ngo too was the Excessive Force used by the Police Police office says theyre now with pressing the demonstrations by taking a more hot line approach to the ploy all kinds of crowd control weapons more all the which results in more serious injuries despite the aspirate from the tension beijing is not making any compromise credit compromise to the public but instead they accuse some of the protest this as a terrorist was just not going to cool down the situation but more likely to embrace the public and oppose has this or even some of them they may resort to war balance act to achieve that goals. T. V. Kong there well as a civil unrest in hong kong continues just well what next for asias Financial Hub freelance journalist di kiersten tat low is from hong kong she has reported extensively from china and is currently based in berlin so happy to have you here with us in the studio d. D. One of the worlds busiest airports a ground to a halt today by this action 2 and a half months now of these protesters theyre more determined than ever but the authorities are also entrenched in their position which is this had it right well. What i hear from processes in hong kong is that theres a sense that they want to do what they call fright together rather than stop and give up on their fight because as the man said just in your report the goal is freedom its liberty in the classical sense of the word of real liberty and they feel that tape being taken away from them and will be increasingly taken away from them in the future so its really a fight to the end however they can fight to the end its existence will for them yes but its also existential for the government in beijing but also the authorities in the territory as well its existence for them in the sense that they dont want to give up they dont want to share power with the people i mean we must remember that the fight for democracy or for liberty if you like in hong kong for more liberty and will control over over their peoples own lives is decades old at this point it began before the british left in 1907 and its you know its deepening now the only way that it could possibly go away as i see is that it will be driven underground by state violence well lets talk about that because if beijing were to decide to send the Peoples Liberation army some of it hasnt done that yet but some people are expecting that might be the next move what implications would it have for the future of the one country 2 systems one country 2 systems is a strange. Beast or bird of whatever you want to call it when nobody really exactly knows what it means in its concept it was sort of dreamt up by the chinese leadership as a way to get hong kong back and concious i think that one country 2 systems is already mostly dead in the sense that there were promises made for growth of democratic system of direct elections of universal suffrage of being able to choose your own leader those promises if you like has been blocked since at least 2003 when hong kong people 6 years after the handover came out half a 1000000 of them to protest against anti to protests ago. Its National Security laws that china wanted or the Hong Kong Government and china wants to bring and that was really the beginning of this entire waves that were seeing now which is culminating in this fight that 16 years 16 years but how unique is this type of prolonged protest that were witnessing right now its unique i mean we are seeing protests in venezuela and moscow in georgia is extraordinary hong kong is a very self managed sophisticated intelligent place you see how polite the protesters are and generally of course as violence going on everyone sees and knows that again its a question of desperation i mean i think people really have that backs up against the wall what theyre looking for is compromise from the government compromise from the beijing government to essentially deliver what they promised they would deliver and now the fact that theyre not doing that tells us i think that the beijing government never intended one country 2 systems to mean what hong kong people thought it would and i dont think they ever intended for hong kong to have a different political system from china in the long run lets talk about the person who is so conspicuous by absence where is carrie lamb. Yeah good question where is carrie lamb she seems to think that she her presence her public presence would only inflame things further maybe thats true shes genuinely deeply disliked i dont know where she is i mean the Hong Kong Government should answer that question but could government have done more should the Hong Kong Government do more to you know find a settlement to this because it is coming to a head it absolutely is and you know you mentioned earlier about the military come again i think if Something Like that were to happen would probably see a combination of the p. L. O. Garrison and hong kong which is about 6000. 00 strong and the Peoples Armed police which is the militia which are in china who are supposed to deal with domestic disturbances. Working in combination like that i mean trying to control any amount of soldiers like this situation and it would be an absolute international catastrophe i mean the price china would pay is high optics of course not so optics are terrible and you know i why about the volatility of volatility of that situation perhaps even spreading to taiwan i think its overall regionally quite volatile journalist. Lower thank you so much thanks. Security forces in india administered kashmir allowed some muslims to walk to local mosques alone or in pairs to pray for the festival of this during an unprecedented lockdown that still forced most people in the disputed region to stay indoors on this islamic holy day. Was was. Well some of these Services Political overtones because of these surprise rebook ation of muslim majority kashmirs a special status last week after outdoor prayers at this mosque worshippers in the capital of syrian garb briefly protesters in the street on their way Home Communications and Internet Access were cut off for an 8th day by indian forces. Celebrating it in kashmir at a very uncertain time and what does the change of status of kashmir mean for the people in the valley like to welcome now to the program do a wall street journal columnist and a fellow at the think tank known as the American Enterprise institute a very good day sir good to have you on the show now many over fur to kashmir as the forgotten conflict should the world be paying more attention now now that india unilaterally removed kashmirs autonomy status. You know i think the world is already paying more attention there are a couple of reasons i mean one of the reasons is that are obviously this is. Disputed territory india is asserting its will by changing the constitutional arrangements that have essentially governed this territory for 70 years pakistan is a party to the dispute they have downgraded diplomatic relations and launched a diplomatic offensive so the whole sort of reader right now is you know in a state of flux and so obviously the world should Pay Attention is paying attention to what has changed for the kashmiris well a couple of things you know the the constitutional provision that was removed even though it had been whittled out over ready the decades it essentially gave the kashmiris at least in theory a certain amount of walk on me over which of the laws passed in the rest of india they could accept or reject that has been taken away and even more dramatically mary sent the shmoo statehood has been taken away the Indian Government has temporarily and the former state of them would push near in the indian union has now been divided into 2 Different Union territories which are essentially federally administered territories which will be run directly ready by someone at a point in by delhi. Do you think that this sudden move by india to revoke the autonomy status of a kashmir could backfire. You know we dont know right now it certainly could backfire right its been a week so far there are hundreds of thousands of troops there the valley is literally on Lockdown People have not been able to use their phones for a week people havent had access to the internet. So far things have been quite calm there hasnt been some but you know we havent we were really going to really see how the people feel about this and what this really entails once some of these restrictions are removed so i think in india the mood is often just optimism but i think those of us who are watching it from afar are very aware that things really could erupt at any moment right because i mean the kashmiris are kept in the dark and cut off so we dont really know whats going on there right now another major question now is how will pakistan respond to these events let me talk for a moment about a sign of just how emotions can be stirred up a bollywood actress said Priyanka Chopra found herself at an event in l. A. And was called a hypocrite over a pro Indian Military tweet now chopra tweeted this back in february earlier this year have a listen and well continue right after that. So it is kind of hard period he thought about humanity and 35 funny. Feet on feet on january 28th. As an Indian Armed Forces your age. In matter perky and hearing urging you to warn you. It is known when youre an adult body sunbeam illegal like he hasnt already feeling busy mom like you i hear you. Whenever youre done to. Many many friends from august. And i am from india and war is not something that im really want to but i am patriotic so im sorry if im going. To people who do love me and have no meat but i think all of us how disorder. Middle ground that we all have to wrong just like you probably do as well the way you came out metering around my dining out on here for. Our there was a little testy to say the least of course you can debate you know about how wise it is for any celebrity to weigh in on such sensitive topics the reason why we included this here is that kashmir is just such an emotive and stunningly emotional topic why. Well you know for both countries the board in the embargo is the only screen of says something about their self definition you know for india even though it has a hindu majority its dark to secularism its a secular state without any state religion and so the idea of having a muslim majority state carries great symbolic value because as you know in 1947 when the british left the subcontinent was divided between india and the creation of this new country going to pakistan which is an Islamic Republic for baucus than you know they see this as the sort of Unfinished Business of partition why is it that this part of you know of what was formerly British India why is it the this part of that land mass even though it has a muslim majority is with their hated enemy india and so for the pakistanis this is really going central to their not only in terms of terms of how they imagine themselves but to their diplomacy to the fact that the army plays a very large role in pakistan r. T. Because the fishmeal conflict is so important and now they see india tightening its grip and i think for them this is a sense that something that they have held so dear even though they havent been able to do that much about it may be slipping out of their grasp prominently and so there was a little bit im going to push a lot of it back on that mr de may because you know the kashmiris are also not very happy with what has happened are they havent been consulted by india about this latest move i mean they basically usurped their country without telling them anything and took away their autonomy so lets talk about the kashmiris theyre kept in the dark theyre cut off they dont know whats going to happen next who is helping them. Look i have no argument that your question was why is this something emotional for india and pakistan and i was attempting to answer that im not exactly sure what your pushback is about but yes absolutely there is no question and we talked about this earlier that the sri people have been i mean in a way that caught up between these 2 much larger countries and the indian state has used heavy handed tactics i think they have both india and pakistan has always seen this is a prize in their own terms and havent been really talking about the interest of the people so i look forward that said not to do many of the think tank the American Enterprise institute thank you sir for joining us. Thanks for having me. Turning to Central America now guatemalas conservative candidate has won the countrys president ial election it was forced time lucky for a 63 year old hunter and he is now tasked with taking on a u. S. President dollar trump over an immigration deal that few politicians in guatemala actually like. 100 jemma tale looks pleased and relieved i after 3 failed attempts he finally won blah tomorrows president ial election little girls know its been 12 long years 12 years of wanting to hold this position and not because im ambitious but because i have a mission. But it wont be an easy ride 2 thirds of all guatemalans live below the poverty line gang crime is rampant corruption even more so immediate employer believe people live here for the same reasons there are just no prospects here. Even with a University Degree and you cant find a job in the body that didnt want it at the death we want security most of all feel like criminals in the thugs we need to protect our family the media. Know its up to gemma tate to make good an isp. Thomas he won the election is a conservative law and order candidate with hardline positions hes pro Death Penalty for criminals and vehemently opposed to same sex marriage and abortion. The law but its greatest challenge looks set to be the controversial migration agreement with the u. S. Become a taste predecessor just agreed to it in july and only under great pressure from u. S. President donald trump. This deal declares guatemala a safe 3rd country which must take back all migrants whove passed through the country on their way to the u. S. The new president would like to avoid this agreement you see the boys get good stuff this is agreement is not good for us how are we supposed to take in foreign is when we dont have the capacity to take care of our own people. I think the u. S. Will have to modify the migrant deal if they had that committed to it. They would hit. 100 german victory is widely celebrated here in guatemala hell be put to a serious test when hes sworn in next january. And more on the importance of this election now for martin there i skate he is a journalist who covers Central America good to have you here in person the eternal candidate has finally what is he the game changer what does his election mean for guatemala and the region all of basically hes. Conservative politician hes part of the traditional Political Class so i dont think hes going to be a game changer at all i think the fight against corruption for chess been very important. But also for the region visit. Might actually come to a complete stop and. He has. Talked about how hes gonna tackle the main problems of the country i like the violence so you dont. About that and i guess in general its very bad news for the country and for the region because you wont see major changes coming right and what guatemala needs is change or at least predication of the Violent Crime that theyre seeing there is he the person who will implement the asylum deal that his predecessor signed with the trumpet ministration well i mean hes hes been saying during the campaign that hes against the deal that he wont implemented however he wont take office the till january 2020 so by the time he takes office the agreement might actually be in full swing however right now go to my. Mate till the Constitutional Court of the country the rule about the riemann. I guess we 1st have to wait for this step and then you can yeah he might especially what this deal entails just just broadly speaking well broadly speaking it means that Central Americans who try to. Get. In the United States they vill they can be sent back to guatemala and be talking about hundreds of people that is a substantial amount of people there but can guatemala really be considered a safe country well i think that thats been the discussion that has been going on and in my opinion its quite ironic to perceive got a model as a safe country because you have. You have snow on you have a dorians fleeing their conference but also go to moms by the thousands fleeing guatemala to look for a better life in the states theyre fleeing violence or fleeing. But leg off opportunities. To consider going to save the country in my opinion is. Very strange to do so journalist martin arrested thank you so much things.
