The kenyan government bans protests as it decides what will happen next to its president ial rerun. Also spain celebrates its national day as the political crisis deepens over the future of the region of catalonia. Out of the u. S. And the United States has sent a notice to unesco saying it will withdraw from the key u. N. Cultural agency says americas decision to end its. The ship is a loss to the u. N. Family and multilateralism and the u. S. State Department Says washington is concerned with mounting costs lack of reforms that has accused the organization of anti israel bias the paris based cultural scientific and Educational Organization was established after World War Two for more on this lets go straight over to mike hanna whos in new york how much of a blow is this to your nest go and do the United States really care about it. Well on one level here what weve got is a formality to the u. S. Membership of unesco was suspended it has not paid any dues or any membership fees since two thousand and eleven when the a freeze was imposed by the Obama Administration on the funding of the u. S. Go so in a way it is a formality the u. S. Had not effectively been part of the organization but on another level there as we heard from the director general unesco irina bokova this is very much a blow to multilateralism its being perceived within the u. N. As just yet another step in the us under the Tramp Administration withdrawing from the rest of the world becoming a National Center country and losing interest in any form of International Engagement this is the way this is being interpreted though as was mentioned the u. S. Has given specific reasons saying that they are issues of reform not being carried through and that of course that is they allege an anti israel bias within unesco this has been an ongoing claim by the United States and indeed by israel itself mongst some of the issues that have been brought up as unescos decision to declare the west bank city of hebron a World Heritage site last year this was rejected by israel seen by the u. S. As an anti against an act against israel and one must note too that there are more than twenty sites within the us itself which are unesco heritage sites sites ranging from the statue of liberty to the grand canyon to all sorts of areas in between this is an important factor in terms of raising tourist revenue on these sites so there are many many problems emerging out of this us decision but as i said ultimately given the lack of us and gauge when since two thousand and eleven this is very much a formality of course work you are seeing the u. S. As you say withdraw from unesco withdraw from the Climate Change agreement made in paris and it one wonders how americans on the ground will actually feel knowing that they are becoming more insular old or again do they really care. Well critics of the trumpet ministration and particularly democrats in congress have argued very strongly that there is a process of it de internationalization under way they are deeply concerned about this issue of losing or fracturing relationships with traditional allies and on that to know that weve just heard from the french ambassador here at the u. N. He says he deeply regrets his decision and says that unesco is all about ideals and values and deep within the d. N. A. Of france and the u. S. Is a striving to better these ideals and values he says that america the world needs the u. S. Now more than ever before and importantly to the u. S. Needs the world but this is part of a process according to many at the u. N. And also many it within the u. S. As i mentioned there have to be nice type of statements made by democrats on the hill that this is part of a process of us walking away from International Engagement this is something that is a seminal matter in terms of the u. S. Position on the global stage remembering to we may be having coming up within the next day or so a decision on iran which will further fracture relations with traditional allies which will further drive the u. S. From any central position on the world stage that it once held while for the moment thank you. Palestines rival factions have signed a deal on political reconciliation. Have agreed for the Palestinian Authority to take full of minister to have control of gaza by december the first theyve been meeting in the egyptian capital cairo to discuss the formation of a National Unity government. Brokered by egypt started on choose day palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas has welcomed the outcome of the cairo talks and has asked his government to implement the agreement. Be completely agreed to the concept of supporting the government which will work normally according to law and of the systems to administer the authorities and ministries without exception and to supervise all the crossings whether with the israeli side or the egyptian side which is the rafah crossing. Despite the fact that we have some different views of different political points we have different disputes but this will never change the fact that we are brothers we are brothers in religion we are brothers in nationality we are brothers in the National Interest we suffer the same we have the same future we need to find a way for a unity of our people to secure the ambitions of our people. Well are a force that sent this update from ramallah in the occupied west bank. Well in a recorded statement it has been played on Egyptian Television weve heard from the two delegation heads and what appears to be the case is a disagreement among other things will center on the rafa crossing between egypt and gaza the Palestinian Authority delegation head saying that the p. A. Would assume full control of that of that of running that by november the first at the latest other things weve been hearing that thousands of hamas officials have been providing Government Services in the ten years but they or at least some of them will be brought under the p. A. Or forty within the next four months and that some three thousand Palestinian Authority Security Officers they will be merged with the security that has been provided by hamas in gaza in the last ten years as for people in gaza theyre just desperate for this to work. When we used to hear about any reconciliation efforts we would think immediately of the failure of it but we hope this time is different unity could at least solve the power crisis and bring happiness to the gazan people. Weve had enough eleven years of suffering without electricity no medicine for people no travelling we want to live like other nations one question that remains open so far is the future of hamas military wing before these talks said that its fate was entirely off the table in these discussions but the palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas said that he wouldnt accept any lebanon style situation where theres a hezbollah equivalent providing an alternative center of political and any military power in gaza or it may be that there is some less formal agreement in the works on that front those are the indications that was sent in the run up to these talks whereby they would remain quiet underground and that if there were to be any use of military force in the future that would have to be the subject of National Consensus as far as the egyptians are concerned this is a success and they want the palestinian factions all of them to meet again in cairo on the van the twenty first. Turkeys president says its unacceptable for the u. S. To sacrifice its Strategic Partnership for an ambassador west at their birth the one blames john boehner is for the diplomatic visa or with the u. S. The u. S. Ambassador to turkey had criticized the turkish government over the arrest of a u. S. Consular Staff Members the detention last week of a Turkish National working for the u. S. Consular office sparked a sudden deterioration in relations between the two countries last week both countries suspended on immigrant Visa Services for each other.
