president donald trump's former campaign manager has handed himself over to the f.b.i. a force on his former business associate rick gates have been charged by a grand jury with conspiring against the united states on conspiracy to lot of money can be held get reports from washington d.c. . trump do solemnly swear donald trump has been in office less than a year but this is perhaps the most significant day of his presidency so far on monday two of his former associates turned themselves into authorities paul mann a ford is the former chair of donald trump's presidential election campaign rick gates is a longtime business associate of matt of fort it worked with the white house until march both men have been indicted on a does. in charges by a federal grand jury the charges include conspiracy against the united states also to launder money acting as an agent for a foreign principal providing false statements to investigators and failure to
9:03 pm
report foreign bank accounts it has also emerged a third person tied to the truck campaign george papadopoulos has pled guilty to lying to federal investigators over his relationship with russia but the most significant of the three is paul man a fort in august f.b.i. investigators raided matta foretold looking for evidence and told him he was a target of the special counsel robert muller's investigation no collusion no obstruction trump has repeatedly called the investigation it ties between his twenty sixteen presidential campaign and russia a witch hunt by the media and political adversaries on twitter trouble reacted to the news of the arrests arguing the charges emanate from actions taken before metaphor chaired his presidential bid he again stated there was no collusion between his campaign and russia i think it makes things worse for him i think it
9:04 pm
becomes increasingly difficult for the president to say that he didn't know what the highest level operatives on his own campaign were doing from capitol hill top u.s. senators issued statements saying the indictments are proof the justice process is working but underscored the need for congress's four concurrent probe into russian interference in the u.s. election to continue on committee joins us live now from washington d.c. kimberly i know the white house press secretary has just been speaking at her daily briefing i guess she was also plenty of questions about these developments. it really dominated the briefing felicity and the white house i think would be fair to say is trying to distance itself from the indictments that have come forward today on monday that repeatedly sara sanders was asked questions about these indictments she seemed to repeatedly characterize that all of these activities involving paul
9:05 pm
matter fort took place prior to him joining the presidential campaign of donald trump that does seem to contradict some of what was in part in the indictment in fact that says that included activities up to twenty sixteen so there is a bit of overlap an inconsistency there however the overall feeling of the white house is essentially that this is just proof positive of this indictment that there is no evidence of russian collusion something the president echoed on twitter and this indictment proves that now when it comes to george papadopoulos a name that we haven't heard much about but that third associate in fact has pled guilty to lying to f.b.i. investigators the white house also saying that he really in their view played a very minor role in the campaign although it's been widely believed and reported that he was hired by the campaign the press secretary saying in fact that he had a volunteer role that the actions he took to try and set up meetings with russian
9:06 pm
nationals and members of the campaign were rebuffed these are actions sarah sender said that he took on his own and he played a very limited role so again the overarching message coming out of this white house is one of trying to distance itself the campaign and the president from any of these activities that now a federal grand jury has approved in terms of charges federal charges that will as we await these appearances by both paul mann afford and rick gates in a federal court will be the focus of significant media attention for some time sunny well also interesting that the president's personal autonomy is also being speaking what does he have to say about the lists. right jay sekulow making some appearances and in fact sort of again echoing the sentiments of the white house press secretary saying in fact that he as the president's personal advisor an attorney is a no way concerned about these indictments his argument has been repeatedly as we
9:07 pm
often see in washington that these charges have nothing to do with russia collusion but instead are go back to the age old saying in washington the cover up can be worse than the crime that what these men have essentially been charged with this is lying to investigators about their activities misrepresenting them what he believes is that in fact that this investigation by robert mueller is in his words good for the country good for the president and he also said that he continues to echo what we have heard previously that the president is not the focus of any formal investigation and that right now the white house is being transparent in nature and cooperating with the special counsel's investigation robert mueller much more on these developments in the coming hours no doubt from the u.s. but for the moment kimberly thank you. the u.s. court has blocked donald trump's administration from and forcing a ban on transgender people serving in the military made the announcement via

twitter in july citing the medical costs associated with allowing transgender servicemen and women but a group of transgender service members last month asked the court to block the planned ban all it considers that. spain's chief prosecutor has filed charges against catalan leaders as the region's deposed president called a speech tomorrow and other cabinet members are reported to have headed to brussels the charges include rebellion sedition and embezzlement if convicted the leaders could face up to thirty years in jail under cements reports from boss alone or. the police may be guarding its but the siege of regional government here no longer has a president as its head the spanish state is in charge its flag didn't get removed when says session was declared by parliament last friday only sign of carlos. is his portrayed his name is among twenty others on the charge sheet filed by spain's
9:09 pm
chief prosecutor they can. film in the studio the prosecution has filed several charges for rebellion addition and embezzlement against the main political leaders of the catalan regional government with their actions and decisions over the past two years have caused an institutional crisis that resulted in the unilateral declaration of independence this was carried out without observing and ignoring our constitution. these charges of the worst case for the sacked catalan leaders sedition carries a maximum of fifteen years in jail and rebellion a maximum of thirty years. some ministers braved it out by appearing folk work then being asked by police to leave one was defiant. we will continue later came separate meetings of both parties that were in the government coalition and they both agreed to take part in elections called by the spanish government for
9:10 pm
december more twists and turns in a crisis with so many dimensions and now the threat of jail hanging over politicians who declared a republic but now want to stand in the elections and do simmons al-jazeera pass a learner. let's go live now so out of there is how to. do we have any idea what exactly college and his colleagues are up to right now. well he certainly has been keeping everybody in suspense the day started with him posting on social media a picture of the building behind me here the headquarters of the cotton regional government saying good day and then there were reports started emerging about his whereabouts and that he was in brussels now over the past hour we heard from. the moans lawyer who says that he doesn't know how long it will be in brussels for
9:11 pm
and we also heard from need to or ministry in madrid said that actually they're not worried about being in belgium they were worried about him showing up in this building here and trying to access his office so one can fairly presume that he is actually in belgium and probably brussels we haven't heard any confirmation or denial from other members of his cabinet or his press secretary but certainly we haven't seen or heard of him and monday was of course the first working day with madrid in charge of the region of catalonia how's that been going i mean do people really notice any difference. well if you walk around barcelona you don't notice any difference whatsoever yesterday there was this big pro union march when fairly peaceful day there was a lot of attention on the square here people wondering whether the members of the
9:12 pm
cabinet will show up for work or not they didn't and there was a lot of tension because everybody knew that. the start of the week was when madrid was going to implement all these measures it has adopted under article one five five when things went more or less smoothly throughout the day even the change of guard at the chief of police that went also pretty smooth picture of the man was put down so things seem to be quite calm at the moment but when you speak to people specially those living here me worried they don't know what's going on you had this declaration of independence on friday and nothing happened actually the contrary happened in the sense that the government of madrid extended its powers to this region so you do get a feeling that you're a bit in a sort of a transitional period especially those living here do wonder what's going to happen
9:13 pm
next indeed and i thank you i'm joined now by raphael whole tone of all the associate professor in political science and public policy at the under school of economics one of the good to have you with us what do you think honest and his colleagues are doing right now in brussels or do you think they will actually return to catalonia to face those charges in court. it seems like they're caught on government government trying to outsmart each other so. called for these have to go one three five but at the end of the you can really apply the article one through five or he only applied to call an election by doing that he just. really he just absolved. called the parliament and the government to just stand down and then we're going to see what's going to happen on the twenty first of the same or at the same time now it seems that puts him on his outsmarting the spanish government by simply calling flying away and maybe seeking asylum in
9:14 pm
brussels or the house think there have been suggestions i've seen them online on twitter and other social media suggesting that reached him or might actually ask for asylum but his party is that they intend to contest the election don't they in december that is the ultimate thing or to hold a whole abolishes catalan institution to then called an election and forces these individuals that called independence last friday to solly have to run in an election that in theory a foreign power is calling into their republic do you think though you're i mean you're suggesting that possibly push them or might stay away might seek asylum somewhere else in europe. do you so how do you see then the elections that are taking place in in december and how is the public likely to vote on this matter been given the uncertainty that people in catalonia have suffered over the past month or so surely they going to be looking for some sort of stability and how is that in effect the way they see in those elections so i think that the election
9:15 pm
will it's the it's postponing the political problem no political solution is being offered yet hopefully maybe a whole will cling to the result of the election eve that is a majority against in the pendants them which of course is his desired result then he can just claim look there's no support now maybe hopefully there is support for independents within the next election maybe he can use these for the more extreme within his party to their offer a concession to the catalan people because the key here is that there's no police to go solution this political leaders are just playing this cotton mouse game and deep down the scars in society has just grown in deeper and deeper and people are starting not to talk about with each other about politics they just i have a lot of what have groups in which my friends are so i'm not talking any more about politics that is how spit and catalonia society is over this issue because it is
9:16 pm
important to remind people that although there be many pro independence protesters out on the streets there have been many people who are in favor of a union within spain being out on the street and this is dividing society right down the middle i would say so it doesn't to be honest in my opinion doesn't matter whether we're talking about the forty sixty or forty five steve fifty five or a fifty fifty or fifty five forty five the key here is that we're splitting the country into there's a lot of protests it seems like there's this running numbers where that one protests was bigger than the other the key here is we should have a referendum we should vote and this is the best way to count opinions or good to have you with us thanks for your own clearance thank you. so has all of this news hour a six month cease fire is expected to dominate the latest round of talks to try to end syria's. growing calls for justice in indonesia following a deadly factory fire which killed at least forty eight people. or houston texans

players react to comments made by the team owner who had them to invite. the kenyan president to her kenya has won the really run off the presidential election with ninety eight point two percent of the vote kenya's electoral commission says the poll was free fair and credible despite it being postponed in some areas but it was held without a strong opposition candidate on for many questions remain about the president's mandate reports from nairobi. the official announcement that who kenyatta had secured his second term in office was no surprise for millions of kenyans but a low voter turnout of thirty eight percent has raised questions around the legitimacy of the selection which was ordered by the supreme court after it an old august presidential vote saying the electoral commission had committed illegalities
9:18 pm
. ninety percent. or. ten. or so. trace. the rerun was marred by violent protests when opposition leader raila odinga and his national super alliance party boycotted the election preventing at least one point eight million kenyans in opposition strongholds from voting. in total at least twelve million kenyans stayed away from the polls observer mission say
9:19 pm
besides the impact of the boycott violence and intimidation kept many of the voters away from polling stations. described the vote as a sham with the electoral commission not making the reforms the opposition had demanded for it to participate in the vote virtually every other issue that we raised that last time is present in this election and more and what has happened is that this time around i think i was in a crisis over legitimacy a crisis of trying to shore up the numbers so that it appears that there is a legitimate mandate for president and in the course of they have done unimaginable things i can think of at least seventeen different grounds from the official even if the election is challenged at the supreme court there are concerns the courts may not act independently concerns around the independence of the judiciary was heightened when the court refused to hear
9:20 pm
a petition to perspire own last week's rerun saying there weren't enough judges present whether or not this election is challenge legally they are many kenyans that hope this final announcement will bring months of political tensions and uncertainty to an end but is kenya to address the nation asking for unity protests began fueling fears of both political and ethnic rivalries are far from over. the seventh round of talks aimed at ending syria's war have begun in the kazakh capital delegates are expected to call for a cease fire between government forces and raw. groups for at least six months the clearance of mines prisoner swaps and the release of hostages are also on the agenda two days of negotiations taking place behind closed doors the talks are sponsored by iran and russia which support the syrian government and turkey which backs the opposition imran khan is following events in a start. the talks here in
9:21 pm
a start to continue on monday and tuesday the main thrust has been a technical aspect of the talks this is in regards to the deescalation zones that were created the six hundred talks here in a stand in september it's the guarantors of those talks that have been speaking today have been talking to each other today trying to figure out what role the take and that's russia turkey and iran however the syrian opposition are here as well and they have a very definite idea of what they want to have happen at these talks and what they want to take away from these talks first is the issue of the detainees or the prisoners or the people or almost three hundred thousand people taken hostage actually. and such an issue is beyond negotiations the second thing is the escalation areas which are being breached by the regime and iran on almost daily basis and russia's are going to and it's supposed to do something about that now
9:22 pm
whether they get those prisoner exchanges and anything else they want is likely up to the russians the iranians and the turkish and the talks that they have with the syrian opposition as well the syrian regime will be involved also here are the u.n. and the united states and jordan as an observer member syrian government forces have stormed one of the last remaining neighborhoods held by eisel in the eastern city of heroes or hama dear is the most heavily populated area and this is he still under the odd groups control the syrian army broke arsenals for years siege on there as though in september they also facing small pockets of resistance. the u.k.'s foreign secretary boris johnson says he's proud of the balfour declaration which was signed one hundred years ago and led to the creation of israel speaking of parliament an hour ago also went on to acknowledge that parts of the document dealing with arab rights had not been fully realized and they called for a two state solution the balfour declaration paved the way for the birth of
9:23 pm
a great nation the state of israel has prevailed over every obstacle from the harshness of nature to this group hostility of its enemies to become a free society with a thriving and innovative economy and the same essential values that we in britain hold dear liberty democracy and the reel of law found a home in israel more so than anywhere else in the middle east most of all there is the incontestable moral purpose of israel to provide a persecuted people with a safe and secure environment. or more on his comments are u.k. course one of my philips is with me in the studio now bobbie you've been watching that debate play out in parliament how did it go when you saw boris johnson's very complimentary remarks about israel there but i think his overall message was slightly more nuanced he was saying that there was unfinished business that the
9:24 pm
balfour declaration had led to the creation of israel but it also in his words had led to injustice and tragedy for the palestinian people i think what's interesting was the marked difference in tactics when the main opposition party the labor party spoke their foreign affairs spokesman emily thornberry she's saying look britain has to recognize palestine now if not now then when boris johnson's reply you can only play that recognition card once by implication britain only has so much influence over the israelis and let's face it the americans you play that card all guess what the occupation does not end so for me i think the really interesting thing is one hundred years ago britain could rewrite for map and the history of the middle east today it looks on in futility and frustration it doesn't it's a very different world from that so bobby thank you. now tobar is breast cancer
