Company welcome to the news hour now there are reports that turkey has issued a detention warrant for a second u. S. Consular worker last week another american consular employee he was arrested in istanbul over allegations of links to last years failed coup in turkey the u. S. And turkey have also suspended Visa Services for each others nationals lanse a diplomatic dispute escalates. As the latest. In the latest sign of fraying diplomatic relations between two nato allies the u. S. Say that was suspending the issuing of visas to Turkish Nationals twenty four hours later turkey retaliated through its embassy in washington with a statement that effectively mirrors the want released by the United States with some exceptions the move effectively blocked from traveling to the United States and americans to turkey and differently. From the americans. Or or it means theyre warning. At all with. Regard to the American Interest the dispute comes just days after u. S. Consulate employee was arrested on charges of espionage and alleged attempts to damage the Constitutional Order in turkey. Attack each national is also accused of having links with the cleric for. The u. S. Denies those charges turkey has also expressed a depressed traditional by its fruitless calls for the United States to extradite guillen hes accused of planning the failed july twenty six thousand coup but denies any involvement in the world as others have also indicated the coup was a scheme but who planned it who was involved in it. Thousands of people have been detained in a cock down since the famed coup including u. S. Citizens the attack here remains a valuable nato ally it is home to the indian peace a Strategic Military facility for the u. S. In the war against isel turkey is also part of the u. S. Led coalition against isis but uncrossed ties with washington are strained over u. S. Support to the city in kurdish fighters the y. P. Theyre viewed by turkey as an extension of the outlawed kurdish workers pertti b k k to the us though the white p. D. Is the most effective fighting force against i saw mohammed oh ill just. Tensions between the u. S. And turkey started when the u. S. Began backing kurdish fighters in their fight against i still in syria and that was under the Obama Administration turkey considers those forces an extension of the Kurdistan Workers Party or the p. K. K. Which has waged an insurgency within turkey for over three decades more recently us a grand jury indicted fifteen Turkish Security officials for a brawl with protesters during president earlier ones trip to washington d. C. In may two under scribed indictment scandalous now not even a letter by Seventy Eight members of the u. S. Congress signed a personal appeal from President Trump has convinced president other one to release any of the dozen or so americans detained currently in turkey edgar said skinners a turkey specialist at the Risk Consultancy group i. H. S. Market joins me now from london good to have you with us on aljazeera but lets just begin with the fact that this issue of detaining a severe Turkish National who happens to work in the American Embassy is actually part of a much larger broader issue about the way turkey and the u. S. Seem to be on different sides of the fence when it comes to issues of syria relationships with iran or even neighboring countries in the region. Very much so this is but the latest episode of what has been a series of disagreements between the two nato allies. We have seen the two countries disagree about the u. S. Support for syrian kurds in the past several years in the Syrian Civil War they have disagreed about various other issues and another important aspect we cant forget is the continued residence of the islamic cleric fit a lot better than in the us which is leading a lot of people in the turkish government and the wider turkish population for that matter to perceive the us as having had a finger in the two thousand and sixteen coup attempts and there is no evidence necessarily pointing in that direction but this is the perception nonetheless and thats what matters. And this is really weighing down on the relations between the two countries and if it is weighing down on the relation between the two countries and you have you might say both sides trying to find a way forward how do you see that actually do you might see a crack in the stalemate that were seeing because all we see is a ratcheting up of tension and in this case diplomatic an activity. I mean what we have seen this morning i think is very important the Justice Minister in turkey announced that or he denied rather that there had to be in yet another arrest warrant issued in the aftermath of the emergence of the crisis yesterday i think thats a very important indicator pointing that turkey is probably unwilling to escalate further there will want to see attempts from the u. S. Probably to initiate some dialogue but importantly i think its turkey recognizing the red line that the u. S. Has now drawn and that right red line is ok we have seen all that has happened in turkey since the last year but if this is going to extend to our own employees in turkey whether or not theyre turkish citizens were not going to let that happen and i think statements by president the one about the matter will be crucial to show as which direction theyre willing to take would have to be chosen very carefully certainly by the respective president s of the administrations but is this one really more so for the diplomats to work you might say behind the scenes now because as you say red lines have been drawn turkey of the United States our nato allies they Work Together when it comes to issues in syria that they in fact have been backing different sides in the scenario its hard to find a way forward perhaps if you are drawing red lines and youre trying to find a way forward at the same time. Let me try to describe the relationship like this the two countries are so entrenched in so many ways economically also in terms of turkeys security infrastructure its membership in the nato its reliance on us the Nuclear Umbrella sort of speak all of these factors that entrenched the two countries into this alliance however as we see more and more often these various spots occurring these disagreements these. Sentimental crevices and merging between the two countries that will contribute to a longer term shift of turkey away from the United States. And we will see probably the country seek to rekindle its ties with various other are turning to as we have definitely seen president do on voice such intentions but again this is not something to you can do overnight and any speculation about turkey having now become a russian ally as opposed to its alliance with the u. S. These are exaggerated these things take much longer time and then than that indeed will have to and see what does happen certainly in the coming weeks for the moment and i said can thanks very much for joining us from our london studio. At least twelve people have drowned after a boat carrying ranger refugees from bangladesh capsized ten of them were children mohammed is following developments in coxs bazaar in southern bangladesh. With the news that yet another boat full of refugees capsized while it was attempting to cross from me and more to bangladesh comes another reminder of the magnitude of this refugee crisis and the fact that our hands are refugees are still trying to flee and come into bangladesh this area you see behind me these people that are here they all crossed by foot into bangladesh just earlier today weve heard horrific tales from them about what happened to them was a woman over there who told us that her husband was executed in the past week by me and mars military theres a young boy over here showed us a wound on his legs that he got that when the mean more army shot at the group that he was with very sad stories more reminders that this exodus doesnt seem as though it will in anytime soon thats one reason why aid groups humanitarian organizations are so concerned about the plight of these people while saying in the region the International Committee of the red cross says it will reduce its operations in afghanistan Seven Members of its staff of being killed the six died in an attack on an aid convoy in february and last month a physiotherapist was shot dead by one of her own patients another four workers have been abducted but the i. C. R. C. Says that a lot be leaving the country altogether. Exposure to release has become. Our greatest challenge. We know that there is no zero risk in afghanistan and we are not aiming at that we dont want to build. Differently our security than we have always done our security is built on acceptance and dialogue and that. Meaningful service is that get and be provided to people the u. N. Says a peacekeeper has been killed and twelve others injured in an attack on a military base in the democratic republic of congo the attack took place near the northeastern city of ben i theres been a fresh outbreak of violence in the region where ethnic tensions are high and soldiers have been battling the allied Democratic Forces a group dominated by hardline Ugandan Muslims spains deputy Prime Minister is warning that the madrid government will act on any catalan declaration of independence so rare say as has labeled the castle and president a fanatic she supported by spains socialist leader Petro Sanchez who says his party will back the government if it takes action. You know yes but you know. If the cattle on president declares you know actually independence we will have to take measures and that decision will be made by the government of spain we will try to have other political groups join us but as im saying that declaration will have a response is that convincing enough. Or lets join join the whole now whos a life for us in boston of course the focus of attention is on the court where you are the significance obviously is bringing in the National Police to god that quarter of one wonders why thats been done. Yes this is news today the building behind me there the superior. Tribunals of justice of catalonia its the highest court here in catalonia subject to the Supreme Court in madrid alone as autonomy doesnt extend to do judiciary and what seems to have happened here is that the president of this court made a request to the Supreme Court asking for units of the Guardia Seville the National Police to be brought in to stand alongside them or sourced squad rather let alone his police force to guard this building in anticipation of what may happen tomorrow tuesday when carlos preached to mark the regional president s address parliament some believe he may unilaterally declare independence now why does that matter here well because there is a transition nor passed by a couple of Years Parliament in september before the referendum setting out what would happen if catalonia declared independence as it went about setting up a sort of infrastructure the fabric of state and one of those things is that this court would immediately no longer be considered a National Court it would become a catalonian court catalonians highest court again and of course there are worries about what may happen to the people who were there so the Supreme Court complied quote in order to preserve the integrity of the current tribunals and all who were there so a move here certainly in and to ship it to separation of what happens tomorrow but not as some people have been suggesting part of a process of triggering section one five five that clause of the constitution that you heard the deputy Prime Minister talking about there by which catalonia is autonomy would be revoked and replaced by direct rule although the threat of that remains very much on the table but the pressure to use article one five five seems to be mounting so if there is such a declaration in real terms jonah what could we see on the streets or in the political circle. Both madrid and barcelona in terms of reacting to article one five five. Well in a sense so while nobody knows this is not a clause thats ever been used before there is a procedure in place a procedure that may take some time it requires the government in madrid to forewarn the government here that it is intending to use section one five five because to give the government here time to comply to return to the rule of law or to put right the things that are seem to be wrong and then the government has to go to the senate in madrid where it has a majority it has to be said but go to the senate and the senate then has to look at the way that the process has unfolded to see that compliance has has been correctly done check whether catalonia has made right the things that are wrong and only then does section one five five effectively come into force so the question of what happens in the minutes and days after a declaration of independence were to happen suppose tomorrow evening i think its pretty unclear exactly what that would entail although looking at the rising tensions in the last two weeks here in catalonia anything is possible both of them will leave it there of course follow events coming out of barcelona and madrid for the moment jonah thanks so much. Plenty more ahead here on the aljazeera news hour including britains office of communications rules and aljazeera is favor after we exposed israels campaign to smear critics of their Foreign Policy plus one of the middle easts internal issues water becomes a factor in the kurds push for independence. And a very Public Statement from the Vice President as mike pence walks the house often an et al game over dealing players those details coming up with joe and sports. At least ten people have been killed in airstrikes in syrias itll a province despite it being part of a deescalation zone there were chaotic scenes in the popular market town of a woman in in the aftermath of the bombing sources on the ground believe the strikes were launched by Syrian Government warplanes most of the victims are believed to have been civilians. And it looks increasingly likely that syrian president bashar assad will stay in power following the six and a half years of a brutal civil war focus is already shifting to reconstruction of towns and cities reduced to rubble in the conflict many countries are already preparing to cash in especially neighboring lebanon in just a report from the port city of tripoli tripoli port has been running below capacity for years but operators arent is the painting that will soon change the huge terminal is just twenty eight kilometers from the Syrian Border and the lebanese government is positioning itself as a major player in the reconstruction of syria when the giant task of rebuilding the country destroyed by war will begin is anyones guess fighting continues in northern and Eastern Syria as well as in small areas around the capital damascus. But after a series of major victories president Bashar Al Assad and the Syrian Government is looking increasingly likely to retain power over large areas of the country introducing an element of stability into economic forecasts not protected by economists since the war started six years ago then the close struction all said he had to mention has been so much in the news lately this has given a lot of hype if you want to get on that lebanon and that to put it can play and this hopefully will. Serve our interests tripoli port is nearing the completion of the first phase of an expansion project first drawn up in two thousand and nine then revised last year with an eye on syrias reconstruction regeneration of the port hasnt gone unnoticed by allies of the Assad Government including russias and bassett or to lebanon b. A. P. Visitor on a recent government organized tour the World Bank Estimates it will cost around two hundred billion dollars to rebuild syria for lebanon that could be just the economic stimulus that it needs for the past five years its Economic Growth rate has hovered at around one and a half percent and its hoped that this port will lead the way and bring it goes numbers up the lebanese government estimate syrias construction boom will create a demand for thirty million tons of Cargo Capacity annually which has already led to around four hundred Million Dollars of Capital Investment in the port i thought that was the market tripoli pullet is one of the most important ports in the Mediterranean Sea so this pole will attract a lot of workers from this area and it will also attract a lot of investors. Tripolis widely associated with poverty and that blacked the ports revival could bring in thousands of you jobs and millions in revenue to the area as well as stimulate lebanons overall Economic Growth but that hinges on a peaceful settlement in syria that will pave the way for reconstruction and despite president Bashar Al Assads gains in recent months peace still seems a long way off if the us time ill just your tripoli in northern lebanon. Because in sarajevo has cleared a former Bosnian Muslim commander of war crimes serbia had alleged that men or chicks commandment adult prisoners in the srebrenica area in one nine hundred ninety two or a child previously been sentenced to two years in jail by the International Criminal court at the hague but was acquitted on appeal just made a cost possible from saudi arabia former commander of wars in amin said bennet sent us an auditor is not guilty of killing three captive serbs all jurors in one thousand nine hundred two this is the first instance verdict delivered by the Bosnian State Court in sarajevo it is possible to appeal on the subject in june two thousand and six so it was sentenced by the court in hague two years in prison for failing to prevent the murder and Inhumane Treatment of prisoners he was immediately released because he had already served the time but the un courts appeal chamber overturned the verdict and cleared him in june two thousand and fifteen he traveled to switzerland where he was arrested on a warrant issued by serbia claiming that he committed war crimes but his base authorities extradited him to bosnia and herzegovina where he was also under investigation for war crimes which he denies the trial started in january two thousand and sixteen many bosniaks see origin as a hero for his role in defending civil and its before the mystic or in one thousand nine hundred five but many Bosnian Serbs see him as the man responsible for killing soldiers who surrendered to aboard an army unit under his command. Im glad merkel has announced a cap on germanys refugee intake in an attempt to get knight her Coalition Partners following last months election the german chancellor agreed to limit the number of new arrivals to two hundred thousand a year it appears to be a concession to her partys Bavarian Coalition partner which has been one of the strongest critics of merkels refugee policies. Journalism has been vindicated in a landmark Ruling Issued by britains broadcasting regulator the office of communications known as off com the decision addressed complaints made against al jazeera is Investigative Unit which produced the undercover series the lobby the series broadcast in january expose the israeli embassies Covert Campaign to smear british citizens critical of israel and its policies Clayton Swisher has this report in a four part series broadcast in january aljazeera is investigating expose the israeli governments attempts to influence british democracy i think you said you. Think. The headlines at Eleven Oclock israels ambassador to the u. K. Has apologized after a senior diplomat was caught on camera saying he wanted to take down the Foreign Office ministers Alan Duncan Alan balcony was a strong critic of jewish. And israeli senior political officer and a british Civil Servant were forced to resign the diplomat in question no longer seems to be a functionary of the embassy in london. But whatever whatever he may have been doing here hes come there can be said to be well and truly. Following that the pro israel media began to attack aljazeera complaints were made to after britains office of communications. The regulatory body is charged with ensuring broadcasters are fair and balanced aljazeera english is required to uphold its standards the films were accused of being antisemitic that they infringe the privacy of pro israeli advocates that they were unfair and biased off com launched an investigation that after nine months fully vindicated the work of aljazeera as investigative year it rejected every complaint Clayton Swisher aljazeera doha. They said with stanley as an investigative journalist of the electronic intifada and love them he says the accusations against aljazeera were baseless israel and its role in a zation this lobbying organizations and its apologists in the west and around the world that if opposition is very much to smear its critics and anti semites and this is being shown time and time again to be entirely without basis then complains in this case allege that aljazeera is on the cover filming in its documentary in january was anti semitic. Confounds that was completely untrue that it was focused on good citizens of the state of israel and the result praising the u. K. And now is really subverts a process of british democracy by undermining people who were arguing for the human rights of the palestinians and keeping them back to semitism so. Its critics argue that antisemitism and then the evolution right to expose this falls Malicious Campaign then also criticised as being semitic so unfortunately just a sign of the vacuum at the heart of the for israel lobby argument. Countries across latin america have been marking the Fiftieth Anniversary of the death of Shane Guevara but controversy has broken out after ireland issued a stand featuring the revolutionary of our it became known for his role in the cuban revolution of nine hundred fifty nine fighting alongside fidel and raul castro prominent cuban american knew not scupper as has described him as a mass murderer and should not be honored the one euro stand features the famous image of shea by dublin artist Jim Fitzpatrick which appears on t.

And to see the president criticism you have to remember the old race with the election of trump especially whats happening in europe very vocal these days we have social media so the flag and im getting is pretty heavy we have a lot of prominent. Politicians on the right in ireland who are going but. Surely thats the purpose of the image. To discomfort the comfortable if that is the case i mean have you ever say sed criticism of this sort of depth and breadth before even from not just politicians in your own country but as were hearing from Civil Society in the United States and politicians there to. Nope never experience Something Like that you have to remember it is a black Propaganda Campaign being run incessantly on she over the past twenty nine years hes been labeled as a homophobe someone who hated blacks despite the fact that he set up roadblocks americans on the black panthers and people like that in the Civil Rights Movement in the u. N. Party made a very impassioned speech about black civil rights and its all nonsense mass murder more people die in america rolls in a month than died in the cuban revolution and ireland we had a bloody revolution in one nine hundred sixteen to one thousand twenty one and our government executed seventy seven rebels in a very short period so.

S. Where were looking at nate and the remains of it still giving some heavy rain across parts of north america in fact although it was a very small storm when it made landfall it did manage to make it into the record books because it was moving at around seventy five Kilometers Per Hour that was just before landfall and that means it had the fastest Forward Motion of a hurricane in the gulf of mexico because it was moving very fast at that brought something of a relief because it meant that the heavy rain couldnt stick around for too long so that certainly helped to keep all damage to to its minimal now you can see theres a little bit of damage there few bits of trees down a few branches there on the roads and a little bit of flooding but it could have been far worse now that system is now running up towards the northeast and as it does so its continuing to disintegrate and skidded you into bridges some pretty heavy rain so new york there is expecting to very very heavy downpours throughout the day today thats also working up into the eastern parts of canada too so also a can expect to see some heavy downpours as well and formally known from that lots of cloud a few very sharp downpours so do expect yet more very heavy showers even towards the south after the west supporting denver four degrees will be our maximum and thats a story because just two days ago we got to twenty six so a real drought for us theres also some rather significant areas of snow in the whole the weather is just edging its way eastwards over the next few days so.

Absolutely. Remember. Emerged from a conflict less than fifteen years ago so its been a very difficult moment for liberia with the help of the internet. Community some progress have been bad but also the challenges of basic infrastructure in terms of development the Election Commission he has walked to to to to to bring sanity in the democratic space remember when and justice on the boat and the subsequent elections that followed weve seen some. Negative campaigning some issues relating to electioneering compared but what is impressive for a country that is emerging from a brutal civil war is that the company.

Iraq has taken measures against kurdish region for last months a session vote but kurdish farmers in iraq being punished by neighboring iran to. Stem the flow of water to border towns. Been a tough season for many kurdish farmers and there is concern that this is just the beginning of a series of bad ones. Usually produces watermelon string beans and. Now he has to make choices as a quality of his crops has declined. If there was enough plant this land but now we only work on two out of ten. We need to estimate how much water there is before working the land and we have to make a choice if they continue like this we will have to abandon the land. The problem started a few months ago went across the border closed the dam on the river which is shared by both. Some here say it all started when the kurdish referendum was first announced but iran says it needs the water for its own domestic consumption. Here it meant that during the Summer Season farmers couldnt get their land and most of the harvest went to waste farming here depends on shallow wells and normally. But. Well. Underground water is becoming scarce faced with this problem but hahn. Deeper well to save his fish farming business. The lack of water. On the fish the size also depends on the quality of water. Continuous floor of fresh and clean water we dont do that anymore from the first and it goes out from the last. But this is not sustainable for much longer many subscribers have also gone dry. The water is trickling back again but the flow remains at less than eighty percent of what it used to those living in the area say they only get three hours of water and. You can see where the water level used to be we build these dams they hand made its primary emergency reactions so we can stock some water that can feed the city and the areas the pumps need a certain level of pressure to function water is not something to be neglected and its not replaceable i think the crisis will grow. The Little Zab River also feeds into karen lake one of two deborah duces hydroelectricity and occurred ish region here to the level is going down so far negotiations between iran and iraqs kurds havent gone anywhere and kurdish authorities have now been threatening to cut off Water Supplies to central and southern iraq to provide for their own.

Well staying in the u. S. Of the u. S. Rifle association or the n. R. A. Says it will oppose an outright ban on stock devices the powerful gun lobby says its open to regulation but against any legislation banning the modification last weeks in las vegas government is said to have used a bug stock device it converts seven automatic rifles into fully automatic weapons allowing a rifle to fire four hundred to eight hundred rounds in a single minute would you be ok with banning bomb stocks but we dont believe that bans have ever worked on anything what weve said has been very clear that if something transfers a similar magic to function like fully automatic then it ought to be regulated differently fully automatic a regulated differently in this country if something copies a similar magic into a fully automatic then those should be regulated as well but australia now where its highest court is to decide this week whether Seven Members of parliament should be thrown out of parliament they had jule citizenship when they were elected something that the australians constitution if the court rules against the m. P. s australias already fragile government could fall as Andrew Thomas explains. As a senator for australias green party there is so walters spent as much time in the Capital Canberra as a home in queensland thats changed waters resigned in july after finding out that she held Canadian Citizenship as well as australian the clause in australias constitution balls citizens of foreign powers from parliament that implicitly includes those with. Both waters parents or australian and they brought her to australia as a baby but she was born in canada and canada automatically gives citizenship to anyone born in the country waters hadnt known so she hadnt renounced it so. When i found that i was canadian i was really sad because my works not finished and i want to keep going. Since attention focused on the clause seven m. P. s have been found to be jule citizens not all have resigned some think not knowing another country consider them citizens but the clause shouldnt apply this week australias high school its will decide if their right really did take the constitution strictly in saying simply that you have the status of national is enough to have you disqualified or is it going to say well so long as you didnt know once you found out you immediately took steps to renounce thats enough and well let you stay parliament. The case could bring down the government body joyces Australias DeputyPrime Minister he was born in australia but his father was born in new zealand and his nationality also passed automatically to his son australias government has a parliamentary majority of one if the court finds Barnaby Joyce election was unconstitutional then either the candidate who came second to him would be elected in his place or the be a by election which choice would lose if either happens Australian Government would. Australias Prime Minister says his legal advice is that not knowing is excuse enough but his deputy and the other dual nationality m. P. s but the recent waters disagrees she expects the high court will find her election was unconstitutional having now announced her Canadian Citizenship waters aims to be legally elected at the next federal election in two years time her absence until then means for her a political career break joyces absence could break the government after thomas aljazeera britain.
