government that. the aim of any political practice is to secure a dignified life and the dignity of the people and dignity stems from the sentiment of independence and freedom how we've however dignity originates from the fact that people enjoy work jobs basic services education. and health care and since this government has been formed been telling my partners that we have taken positive steps yet we haven't achieved our goal for the past few days. the government has not been walking forward that's why our young men and women have given us many chances they have reached a state of despair and as a result of this despair they exploited it they took to the stream suppress their own anger and to demand all and each needs and every one. his or her will demand these demands and what are diverse and lawful however the only one demand the all call for is dignity and respect to their voice. before this. i spoke to my partners and gave them 72 hours to me to achieve certain measures and to be clear. this ultimatum was not sought from the protesting. young men and women on the contrary they are raising their demand and it is my duty to serve them. because of them we all have jobs. the ultimatum was given so my partners the government in order to take. measures that's been required for years. the measures moved forward some and the budget approved today others beyond the budget. i will mention some one more is. the budget. of deficit of 0.6 without any additional tax or duties on people. the banking sector. is contributing with $5210000000.00 including the profits on the banks 3050 percent of the residents ministers and lawmakers former and current will be half. of the contribution to the pension funds with 70 percent 5th of. 1000000000000. of the electricity sector deficit being cut off so about 7 months the pension surance will be endorsed before the end of this year to an additional $20000000000.00 lira to support the underprivileged families. $160000000.00 to. provide assistance to the housing loans and with respect to the underprivileged. families. alone were negotiating with banks for a 100000000. dollar loan from the bank which will be approved soon. the loan will be with a one percent the difference will be paid. borrowing $100000000.00 and will be paying them in 30 years. 10. draft law. drafted to recover. the embezzlement funds and i know that there are certain lawmakers and lawyers are working on this issue and we are asking them to step forward in order to recover all the money the national authority for combating corruption will be finalized before the end of the. scanners will be. entering an exit point to combat smuggling and to strengthen penalties again a smugglers. lay down a plan to merge. all the unnecessary state institutions when you. hear the word scrapping or repealing this does not necessarily mean people will lose their jobs we are going to restructure and they comply and institutions as necessary. but is governing civil aviation and communication and electricity will be appointed certain dates will be disclosed. the power plants are back to within 4 months. the 1st phase of $11000000000.00. projects will be completed within 3 weeks these are the key factors in order to keep the weight of the economy rolling . to provide jobs for young men and women. to complete the projects of the law at the earliest and i'd like to be clear that we have a totally different attitude with respect to the budget deficit is almost 0 this will give no room for any waste or corruption the government spending will be channeled and the investments will rely mainly on foreign investment simply for these and that foreign investment and foreign investors will not tolerate any corruption. in their investments that's why would he lied heavily on foreign investment as they said these are some of the. approved and endorsed handed down by the cabinet today others illusions will be an 8 hour to your by the secretary general i haven't finished yet. as to the private sector the cellular phone. will bring about our financial advisor who will consider all the possible solutions in terms of privatization the revenues the shares and then this advisor will present certain options to us. selling our 20 percent or 30 percent of the sector to the adviser will work on the plan and then. give us some options here i would like to address young men and women and all that have been nice citizens who are taking to the streets raising their demands and except pressing their anger. i love it. here i like to address young men and women my fellow lebanese. suppressing their anger calling for their dignity which is a lawful demand and the measures and solutions handed down today may not live up to your demands yet they may live up to what i've been calling for 2 years since the formation of this government was started with solution as a step one and we are about to achieve certain measures and these measures are not again not to ask you to go home or to stop demonstrating it is your say and no one will give you any time limit or ultimatum and i will not accept any threat to mediation to words you it is the duty of the state to safeguard your demand and to protect you so long as you are demonstrating peacefully you will have. the locomotive it was you that pushed the government to take the measures and hand down the resolutions you heard today out of my duties i have taken my steps you are calling for your dignity for us your patriotic and individual dignity basic services health care security and above all respect to your demands and you must make no mistake you heard your voice has been heard and it is you will be this size civilly based on my duty what i have taken today in the cabinet is the 1st step forward. any official should have done the same however it was you has broken all the barriers shaken all the political parties forces and leaders. and the above all this sick teddy and barrier to you is stalled the pennies per year to the national spirit this is the largest that season it we have and i hope this is beginning to word the end of 6 trillion ism and lebanon in may you live on and may lebanon live on. i'm not supposed to take questions however. there is a crisis of trust how the people believe or in what you said. let me tell you something i was clear in my message it's. all these measures are not meant to people to go home for people who are not that it is confidence over one day and if i were in their shoes they wouldn't have confidence in the government however the government has taken measures to combat corruption. waste we have taken giant steps you don't know exactly what we have done in order to achieve as 0.6 dificid in the budget and this is the largest at sea event ever and i defy i dare you none no president has been taken it is. very important step it also gives us an imperial opportunity in order to bring the economic deterioration and the economic decline to a halt and all that matters relating to private and public sectors will be addressed in future. this is without further thank you and god bless you. the young men and women that measures i am announcing may not live up to your demands but they live up to what i've been calling for the words there of lebanon's prime minister aziz unveiled a package of measures that are aimed at shoring up lebanon's economy and perhaps to address the concerns some of those protesters were looking at in the live pictures coming to us from beirut who've been out in the streets i think this is day 5. calling for change calling in for resignation of the government calling for a change in the electoral rolls or saddle how to really address those people out there in the streets saying these measures aren't meant to convince people to go home change will not come overnight if i was in their position i would continue. let's bring in if we can now so for she is live from beirut so zain i'm sure you heard the words of saddam how do you very 1st of all tell also as we look at the right side of all screen can see people in the square i think they were listening to what he was saying 1st of all before we dissect what he said tell us what the reaction is right now. his reform package it was leaked to the media from others from yesterday so people were aware of the decisions that his government are planning to take is planning to take. this bin it's too little too late why are you doing this now why were you going to impose more taxes on us if we did not take to the streets then you would have just imposed more taxes how were you able to come up with a solution that doesn't involve taxing the poor so people here are upset that it's not just that they have no faith in the political leadership even if they think that this reform package is the right way forward what guarantees is there for it to be implemented properly subtle how do you really trying to reach out to the people trying to call me the anger in the street handing them a victory if you like telling them it is because of you that we came up with this plan it is because of your sacrifices he's calling their demands legitimate and he also addressed their fears because people here are quite worried that the government may soon employ force to disperse the crowd that happened on friday night since then the security forces and the army have taken a step box but subtle how do you think telling them you can stay there for as long as you like you will not be intimidated i will not allow the security forces to force you from the streets so he's doing his best to reach out to them but right now there's still defiance in the streets. all right zain a whole lot of no doubt will come by. zain a lots more to talk about let's bring you some live pictures there as you can see people remain out in the streets of the capital in beirut as they do in many parts of the country from tripoli in the north all the way to the south we'll be back in a couple of minutes with another 4 shows to stay with us here on al-jazeera. hello there. sections of south america and heavy rain that's working its way north woods northeast really away from. a year ago that improving dennis monday there was quite heavy across into the southern sections or brazil out she woman up behind the system as we go through choose a 27 maybe to him but his hour is if you're high of 22 plenty of showers into central america and across the caribbean mostly just how the skies are really across much of the caribbean and the rains really becoming heavy if i choose day and that's when they extend through guatemala up into the yucatan peninsula and again impacting southern areas over mexico now the southern plains in the united states where we've seen some fairly strong. the warnings in place monday for the risk of tornadoes is where we have this clash of moist warm air across the east in the south and these cool coming in behind 23 and monday thought does come with the threat of these severe storms and then by choose day it really does care a way across much of the south in the southeast but you can see up tools the upper midwest how we have this area of low pressure and what we've got is this cold air on the western side bringing snow in and then this warm. subtlety choose day in new york with a high of 60 degrees. who sponsored. this is al jazeera. sam is a band this is the news hour live from coming up in the next 60 minutes lebanon's prime minister says the cabinet has agreed on a number of economic measures to come public anger protesters demand political reform. the u.s. withdraws from syria and its troops cross into the northern kurdish region of iraq . haitians are unleashed their frustration with calls for the president to step down growing louder. and a strain is newspapers like out their front pages accusing the government of a crackdown on press freedom. now levelers government has agreed on a range of reforms in the effort to calm the recent protests they include cutting in half the salaries of some current and former politicians getting banks to contribute over $3000000000.00 towards the deficit the cabinet is still discussing reforms in the power sector but protesters say that's not enough they want the government to resign and hand over power to a council of nonpolitical judges until elections can be held and they want new electoral laws that would prevent the same sectarian the those from holding on to power prime minister saad hariri addressed the nation a short while ago let's go to zona holder in beirut dana 1st of all take us through the sorts of measures which he's just unveiled. prime minister sagal how do you presenting a solution to the economic crisis in lebanon on the 2020 budgets of the government the revenues because it is high expenditures a very high budget a ballooning deficit they were planning to impose taxes on the people on friday when on thursday when there were reports that more taxes are going to be imposed it triggered the protest movement so now the government under pressure from the street is saying we have a new solution we will tax the banks we will tax the insurance companies we will get rid of ministries of institutions will slash the salaries of a government employee here solve a fish bowls but people here it's it's too late too little because they say these are just promises and promises that they've heard time and time again during the elections in 2018 during the garbage crisis back in 2015 when the government had no plan to deal with the waste in the streets of beirut so people here say even if this reform package is the right way forward how do we trust the phish shows that they will implement this properly we consider them they should be held to account people here knew what the reform package show was going to be approved in cabinet today because it was leaked to the media so we're also expecting protesters the protest organizers to hold a press conference at 15 g.m.t. and they're going to officially reject they're going to officially reject this but subtle how do you really trying very hard to reach out to the people trying to calm the anger on the streets even telling hanging with them a victory saying this is because of you because of your sacrifices because you took to the streets and this is your victory but i can tell you up till now people are just seeing this as empty promises and they are demanding that the government resigns and out a transitional council takes over a council that is going to be made up of judges with no political affiliation so. crisis is far from over. zuma at times hardly looks relaxed at times he was smiling partly joking and ultimately telling people you know that he recognizes this may not me they. just how hard is the government going to continue to work to meet the protesters the moms if they camp out in the street as they seem to be. well there's too much at stake for levanon this political elite if saddam heidi resigns that will not be good news for the hezbollah led alliance which controls the government which controls parliament in one way or another gives them political cover if he leaves office then they will have to appoint a son name who is allied to their count and then there is the possibility of the international community not providing aids not on blood not on blocking the $11000000000.00 in loans and grants because in many ways there is pressure there is pressure on the it has on the on hezbollah which is an iranian backed group the u.s. sanctions have been imposed on the group so it is to the benefits of the president michel aoun and the his allies the hezbollah alliance forces to stay in office and saddle if he leaves office it will be the end of his political career he has been weakened over the years he lost a lot of seats in the previous election back in 2018 feet so he has lost a lot of support in many ways though he still has the most seats in parliament that are designated to go to the muslim sunny's because we have to remember levanon there's a sectarian system of government and the seats are distributed. for the different sets so even though their rivals have come together they're facing an existential threat these people are saying. to get rid of the political elite they've been in power for decades they're exploiting this sectarian system they're using the state's resources to serve their own communities to maintain sort of support among their communities but what we're seeing that's very very new in lebanon is that their supporters some of them at least are now starting to rise up against that it's a 1st and it's a real challenge so right now they're fighting for i wouldn't say survival no because they're still in power they control the army they control the security forces they have the money this is a leaderless revolution they're up against powerful players players who've been in power for years so it's a it's a quite a difficult situation we've been speaking to protesters here and they say we know we know the risks we know what could happen but we want change we want to a new beginning so in many many many ways our revolution has already happened in this country all the young the old muslim christian rich poor left come together and they no longer listening to the narrative of their sectarian leaders who keep telling them that if you don't unite if you unite or if you live together things are not going to work out to we will lose power so some people are saying enough is enough a lot of the new leadership the leadership technocrats educated people but like i mentioned this crisis is far from over this country is paralyzed. right so i'm afraid of that long from beirut. the prime minister as you mentioned saw her address the nation is what he had to say. for the past few days. the government has not been walking fall and that's why our young men and women have given us many chances they have reached a state of despair and as a result of this despair they exploited it they took to the history. and to demand it all and each and each and every one of his or her. demand these demands are diverse and lawful however the only one demand the all call for is dignity and respect to their voice. let's take a closer look now at some of the challenges facing lebanon the high cost of living and poor economy means most lebanese struggle to get by crumbling infrastructure lack of jobs are the result of its enormous 80 $6000000000.00 of public debt more than a 3rd of young lebanese are unemployed but lebanon's politics rather long deep sectarian fault lines countries made up of christians sonny and cher muslims as well as other minorities they tend to vote based on religious affiliations that makes changing the political system difficult no group is large enough to command a majority in parliament so any new government be fragile and then alliance between the same religious factions. salim is a professor of international affairs and diplomacy a not so dame university in lebanon joins us live from beirut good to have you with us 1st of all what do you make of the sorts of measures the prime minister's just unveiled so they go far enough. well almost enough it was a minimum that the government could offer offer there was much anxiety yesterday and today going into this ministerial meeting today and there were some fears that the prime minister how did he may submit his resignation and the potential reverberations this may create in the country well the prime minister did not submit to the nation. several hours of meeting today resulted in a series of decision taken by the council of ministers headed by. the president of the republic and prime minister how did he. talk more than a dozen major reformists which are to be implemented immediately or over the next few weeks they started this reform is 1st of all with a reduction of 50 percent of the salaries of ministers of the president's prime minister the speaker of parliament deputies. in parliament and this is what. many moms that. people and that it was 3 stores were demanding particularly last year there was a decision by the concept of minister to increase the salaries of those official mentioned official now by sort of the 5 percent in a country which is broke and in a country which is in much debt so this was see it as a. go to step in the right direction number 2. but if i got back to. saying is that for a lot of the protesters the question at this point is not just what sort of economic reforms the government can embark on but the whole credibility and even legitimacy of the government they want another set of hands to run the country. well exactly and that's why the decision more than a half measure decision that's what they can buy the. content of
