A fresh path forward. Omarion evanston its good to have you with us thousands of migrants and refugees on the greek island of lesbos are demanding more permanent housing elsewhere after a fire destroyed the overcrowded morea camp a massive blaze on tuesday left more than 12000 camp residents homeless the greek army has begun building replacement shelter but many of the migrants are opposed to the construction of another camp they want permission to leave the island. Center phenomenon sends us this report. Maybe and i knew alice just 3 weeks old born in moria when they cam started burning clarence ran for their lives now and there are sleeping on the roadside. Im so disappointed because the European Union could have helped us after all this time its been 4 days no one is taking care of us what are they thinking how can they abandon us i dont know what theyre doing in europe will see us there because he live. The family fled the democratic republic of congo others came from afghanistan or syria now theyre all stranded here. A card leader of the greens in the German Parliament is one of the few politicians who visit the island. This is the last chance to say we urgently need to change our asylum policy it is all about law and humanity humanity and law both its the only way we can really live up to our european values. And a few kilometers away tents are being set up at an all shooting range but refugees gathered here tell us they dont want another camp like more yeah. We need the Government Support us to be of a question maybe on the other countries you know maybe out of. Germany. That is a going to be good but decided to be done maybe 2 days ago we went to see the fight. And there is how many here feel their frustration leads to hours long projects. They chant freedom and are not afraid to confront this week riot police. Here it is the force situation for did it fugit we dont have to follow the words or result of anything and when it does. People hear our. Patient care much in fact henceforth to demonstrate their anger they tell us we are working to stay here we have stepped up take care of us we have. The right. This time everything remains peaceful but the longer understand of continues the bigger the risk that the situation could get out of hand. In the spring and alexander phenomenon who filed that report. Shes standing by near the site of the morea refugee camp on lesbos hello to you alexander so weve heard its already been nearly 4 days since the fire destroyed the camp describe the situation there now. So at the moment its quite quiet here compared to yesterday people are getting ready for what is going to be another hot day here cleaning their make shifted tents and actually i was struck by by that that they were able to put them up so quickly while we are still waiting for the greek government to live up to its promise to provide housing for the refugees but of course the conditions here are grim sanitary conditions there is only little Running Water no toilets and people really think that they have been abandoned by by the European Union and they are getting increasingly frustrated as we saw in the reports we saw protestan yesterday and of course i can assume that we are going to see them today again now xander at what have you been hearing from the local authorities what is their plan to provide food and shelter to the refugees how are they going to do all of that. Well what we saw here on the ground were mainly n. G. O. S distributing food and water but many refugees told us that they dont have enough food that they are hungry that they dont have enough water or are really myself didnt see any local authorities here on the ground although we know that theyre also distributing food they started as we saw in the reports setting up those tents if you kilometers away from from here the greek government has sent 3 ships to provide housing to talk to the people but its going to take a while and many of the refugees here told us that they just dont want to stay here they want to move on they want to leave the island because they dont believe that the greek authorities can really take care of that and if you are here on the ground you see that thats really the case well what about the greek local residents i mean the residents of lesbos them sounds how are they reacting to whats going on well theyre very upset and angry they say they dont want an arbor a camp to be built here they say they have been facing this situation for 5 years now and someone else needs to burn this garden burden we ran actually yesterday a local blockade everything was peaceful we could pass through this blockade but that can change any day if the soroti is here will push through with their plans to. Build another camp in moria. Alexander phenomenon on the greek island of lesbos thank you so much for your reporting as. Well wildfires have forced Mass Evacuations across several western u. S.

Crazy 11 in the morning and its. Like the middle of the night. Historic fires are ripping through 3 western states in california almost 5 guys and square kilometer as have burned firefighters dont expect to bring the blazes under control until the middle of october or some villages have already been incinerated. The governor to herd one scorched forest making up a point about Climate Change as he surveyed the damage. This is a climate damn emergency this is real.

Historic peace talks between the Afghan Government and the taliban have begun today in a bid to and 2 decades of fighting and bloodshed the meeting in the gulf state of qatar is the 1st time the warring sides have met face to face theyre hoping to Reach Agreement on cease fires the rights of women and minorities and the disarming of tens of thousands of taliban fighters. Well for more on all this lets bring in journalist ali latif he who joins us from kabul hello to you ali so the talks have opened today with a ceremony and a number of speeches but what what was the main message at the start of these historic negotiations. So everyone has their own message dr up the law who is heading the peace portfolio for the Afghan Government made it very clear that they want to ceasefire an all around cease fire on humanitarian grounds and this was something very important this is something that theyre trying to stress from the very beginning of these talks where is the total audience that you know that they want to create an islamic system that brings all of the of on people together and that serves them all and that are right some of the wrongs of the past of course of us have on constitution since the founding has always been based on islamic law so you know what that means people still dont know and might pompei o the u. S. Secretary of state who people see as sort of the in force or there really is whole point in being there is to force these sides to actually come to some kind of an agreement you know he said that he wanted a sovereign of honest on a united artist on and i want to sit on that could decide for itself what its political system would be but key really urge them to take this seriously and i think that thats a very clear message from President Trump that you know that he wants this to and he wants to be able to say that he ended this war. And yet if the taleban won a sure islamic government in afghanistan ali are they likely to share power with a western backed Afghan Government i mean theyre very different visions of what afghanistan should be arent they. Well i think this is what the quote anytime that someone from the taliban or any sort of similarly minded people come and say that we you know we want in afghanistan based on. And islamic jurisprudence and things like that what everybody says is that the afghan constitution is already based on that that one legal system is already based on that so you have to tell us what that means to you you know you have to say exactly what that means does that mean you know women not going back to school and work and things like that which no woman of on his own except at this point again you know i was a brief 6 year period in history that people dont want to go back to so the onus is really on the toilet want to describe what that means to lay it all out there one thing for all.
