delegation in the chamber and the enthusiastic welcome given to the palestinians. whose foreign minister addressed the assembly and insisted that jerusalem would be the capital of a palestinian state mr merrill young we need today not because of any animosity towards the u.s. but because of its decision which constitutes an aggression on the genuine and natural rights of the palestinian people to the city of jerusalem the israeli ambassador holding up a two thousand year old coin as evidence of israel's claim to the city it proves the ancient connection of the jews to jerusalem and togo one dearest sent guatemala to join the six nations that had voted against a similar resolution affirming jerusalem status last month and the number of abstentions increased from nine to thirty five the spec haps a result of the threats made by the us to retaliate financially against those who

voted in favor this is bullying and this jumble will not bow to the duck it is unethical who think that this works and dignity off member states are for sale let me put it in these three we will not be intimidated you can be strong but if this doesn't make you right dismissive us reaction during the turkish foreign minister speech and the ambassador once again adopted a threatening tone in her response the united states will remember the stay in which it was singled out for attack in the general assembly for the very act of exercising our right as a sovereign nation we will remember it when we are called upon to once again make the world's largest contribution to the united nations. what there are questions now about the future of u.s. led attempts to renew negotiations particularly as the palestinian leadership

insists it will not talk to u.s. representatives in the light of president trump's decision the u.s. ambassador claimed the vote could determine the way in which u.s. citizens view the united nations in reality though the result reflects a global condemnation of president trump his strategy and his policies mike hanna al-jazeera united nations. the palestinian chief negotiator has condemned the decision by the u.s. but says the u.n. vote shows respect for the rule of law. it's a day of shame to those who stood shoulder to shoulder with occupation settlements against international law and i do appreciate very much that the majority of the international community decided in spite of the threats and intimidation of the state to stand tall and to stand shoulder to shoulder with was the farsightedness international law and the rule of law another of the jungle. israel's prime

minister benjamin netanyahu has rejected the u.n. vote and find president trump israel completely reject posterous was a truce with them as our capital always was always will be but i do appreciate the fact that a growing number of countries refused to participate in this theater of the absurd so i appreciate that and especially i want to again express our thanks to president trump an investor group for their store difference of israel and there's a difference of the truth. we have malcolm webb standing by but first let's go live to paris where the person president is holding talks with president craw and. expects to have to quote a friendly way after france voted against the u.s. at the u.n. . so when. rival here

at the least say he was greeted by a man or michael and it was a very warm greeting between the two knots perhaps what you would expect because france was one of the countries the fact that the resolution passed at the u.n. general assembly on thursday evening now meant all my calls always made france's position very clear he himself said of the donald trump's decision on jerusalem he said that it was deeply regrettable and really worried him he was concerned about what it would mean for security in the region and a man who michael says process position has always been the same and that is that the status of jerusalem can only be decided in negotiations between the israelis and the palestinians now as for the palestinian leader he is he really trying to encourage the support that is already been shown by france he wants to see the backing of europe as he is on a diplomatic push here really off to this u.s. decision and there is no doubt that he has come here and this will be

a very warm meeting we are expecting to hear from the two leaders quite shortly we can see pictures of journalists gathering in the press conference the leaders get across that when they do show up as i say with the palestinians saying that the u.s. is no longer an honest broker in the peace process is this now an opportunity for france to step in. well there's no doubt the french president has been very active since the u.s. decision on jerusalem we have seen present michael very busy speaking to leaders in the region by phone he has hosted many right here at the least so in fact earlier this week we had the king of jordan earlier this month the israeli prime minister binyamin netanyahu and in fact it was during a meeting with netanyahu. said that he wanted the israeli prime minister to at least make a gesture for peace to the palestinians by freezing illegal settlement building in the occupied territory so we've seen michael extremely active on this in this arena

and what he says is he really wants to try and news france's historic traditional role it has a good relationship with many of those regional players to really try and help and possibly mediate he says the best case scenario would be to see the israelis and palestinians coming together and trying to trying to restart talks absolutely ok the tasso across back to as a when we have the leaders speaking in paris for a moment thanks very much as carried out to malcolm webb peace standing by for us live in gaza some of the most response been there also to this u.n. vote. well among the leaders of all of the political factions it's been widely welcomed here in gaza and in the west bank leader of hamas here in mail here said that they welcome the vote and said that the u.s. should have the international will to on the the u.s. to retract its recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel and the leader of the d.f.l. tea party said it was

a slap to american arrogance so universal welcoming of the resolution of the majority vote across the political leaders but for normal people in gaza the details of the diplomacy are really what's on their mind after decades of failed international processes to actually change their lives and make a difference to the situation on the ground this isn't their main focus but the the the u.s. statement that jerusalem will be recognized as the capital of israel in almost every on the mind there is a red line that's been crossed and that's why we've seen protests here most days since december the sixth when from first announced this and that's why we're expecting to see protests here later today no mother i want to ask you what we're expecting to see later today will be the third week day of rage has been called for how widespread do you think it will be. all of the factions have called

for what they call a third day of rage here today what will start as a street protest in previous weeks that started with thousands gathering in the streets normally ended with hundreds of those people heading towards the separation wall with israel where in previous weeks they've thrown stones and clashed with the israeli soldiers there who responded with tear gas and with some live bullets palestinian officials say seven people have been killed here and in the west bank in the last just over two weeks since this on rest began so we're waiting to see what will happen later today but political leaders a promising what they call a third day of rage ok also to keep a close eye on the region there and events going on especially during gasser malcolm live from amman thanks very much. protest against israel in the u.s. recognition of jerusalem as its capital have been taking place in malaysia thousands gathered at the preacher mosque in the country's minister of capital prime minister najib razak was also attending. peru's president petro public

a left wing party that had promoted the motion to impeach the president has changed . is changed around in the last few days and now they were saying that this was in fact second russian those who was against the president and the other reason i think for this unexpected outcome is that. part of the members of pussy more tea party of the popular force party led by people from community abstained from voting at least ten members of her party abstained from voting. their own special envoy for syria staffan de mistura is joining. in kazakhstan the eighth round of the so-called astonished process aimed at ending the conflict began on thursday meanwhile russia's parliament has approved the extension of moscow's lease of its naval base in syria for another five decades. united nations says at least sixteen people have died while waiting for a medical evacuation serious besieged eastern ghouta region head of the un's

central government. in another barcelona neighborhood another celebration. for the pro unionist citizens party which favors when main part of spain thank god i know yeah catalonia won the election for the cattle and parliament. citizens party won the most votes thank you it's a hollow victory this election was never about the biggest single party but much more about coalition building now this is what it's all about one hundred thirty five seats up for grabs in the chamber of the capital and parliament the magic number sixty eight that's what either the separatist bloc or the unionist block will need to take majority control election day began for the telly cabinet as family like millions of other cast lands. just a few steps to the polling station. the couple voted for

separatist candidates the ballot slips read more like a police most wanted list spanish prosecutors had arrested leading separatist candidates on charges of rebellion some remain in jail some pled abroad and others are out on bail pending trial across town brought somebody estrada headed to the polls it was her chance to cast a ballot for one of the parties vowing to stop the breakup of spain. it's been a lot of them in history i'm hopeful because we needed a change after all these months of so much of the independence cause and hoping for a change in the outcome was a defeat for the spanish prime minister mariano rajoy he dissolved the catalan parliament in the wake of that october referendum. called for the elections hoping that he would gather some support for his own policies and it has

completely backfired in the coming days process session parties will have to agree a joint strategy force madrid to negotiate or press ahead with plans for a breakaway republic. al-jazeera bosler. o'brien is live for us at the catalan parliament has not been a clear cut when so how the results being interpreted there. well several ways to interpret it i mean you look at the secessionist walk and they've largely maintained their support they've got seventy seats instead of the seventy two that they had previously but there are subtle changes within it i mean for example the c u p which is a small and i kissed communist type of party which was an essential part of the ruling ruling coalition they've gone from ten seats down to four and they were a really hard line independence party so you can see that their support has drifted away and the support for citizens' party which is

a sense of rights pro madrid party has gone up they are now the biggest party so you can see there has been to happen changes within the electorate as to their sentiments and now the question is how that's going to transmit itself into future policy will these to session as parties who will hold sway will have the majority in parliament are they going to continue with a hardline approach as they have done in previous months or are they going to realise that in order to have an accommodation with madrid that that's probably going to be the safest way of proceeding it's really down to how the procession parties choose to operate as they form a government and decide on their policies so what happens next. well. the car is pushing the person who's still in brussels is due to speak within the next hour at the press club in brussels so we're hoping to hear from him and

that would shed some light on what his intentions are if you comes back to spain he is going to be arrested and there are other process session political leaders who are currently in prison you know that the legal process will not stop just because they've done well in an election that said what they're going to do is try and build a coalition of the three parties that were in power before and then it will be down to name a president and actually decide on what policies they're going to pursue and how hard line those policies are going to be it's all a little bit cloudy but it will become clearer as the days go by ok so i will keep watching paul renne and thanks very much for joining us from barcelona. the greek government is making a concerted effort to take refugees out of overcrowded camps on the edge and islands before the deep winter sets in those camps were built to receive five and a half thousand people and the current has twice that number of last reports from

the island of some loss. osama has waited for this moment for five months but as he finally boards a ferry for athens and a future far from his native palestine he almost seems to regret it he's one of one hundred ten refugees sailing for the mainland many have been here longer. came here fourteen months ago after i saw the fighters destroyed his house in mosul it's like a dream for everyone here because they spent long time i learned they were allowed to leave until they finish their procedures so i takes time sometimes but you know they feel like they are really free when they got the audience under the e.u. turkey agreement refugees arriving on greece's eastern region islands have to stay there until their asylum case is a hood but the government may move people with disabilities families children and single women. that leaves

a lot of single men behind for them boredom and overcrowding create a toxic mix some us volunteers a self organizing group raised money to create a day center for them here refugees can feel human relax socialize learn languages and burnish their resumes in english and soon they'll be able to wash their clothes this face in the can be so very natural and there's no space where someone can do any anything physically any activity so having a place like this really takes their mind away from from all the tension and having it there the government has offered to build a second camp here but officials in sa most like on the other islands have refused so the existing camp built for seven hundred currently hosts fifteen hundred half of them are women and children there's a scarcity of medicine clothes water and hygiene but things were even worse before the evacuation until the beginning of december this terrorist all of grove was

a tent city. some seven hundred people lived trenches dug around the turns in an effort to divert rainwater are still visible the government's concerted push to shelter refugees ahead of the deep winter means that the most vulnerable populations have now been moved to the mainland more people arrive each week the difficulty of reaching athens sends them a message that europe is lifting the drawbridge to war torn loans and that this millennia old migration route across the region may in future have fewer happy endings jump. first farms actually boris johnson is in moscow for talks with his russian counterpart sergey lavrov it's the first visit by a u.k. foreign secretary in five years relations have been strained over ukraine and syria as well as the poisoning death of the former russian spy alexander litvinenko johnson stressed the need to cooperate on tackling international challenges such as

aleppo city these syrians now live in rebel controlled province their suffering isn't over. we always thought that aleppo was ours but we were forced to live they took it now we're living a very difficult life and no one is helping us. it's been two years since the battle for aleppo came to an end the opposition surrendered its last stronghold people were under siege for months and trapped in a war zone the choice they had was to die or leave their homes. one of the most difficult moment was when i stepped onto the bus and said goodbye to my city i've had that i lost a part of me or hated the world. all more hallowed be dead just lose his home but was the heart of their revolution young men like how to be were hopeful where the rebels captured the east of the city of two thousand and twelve. as a journalist who documented the conflict that followed now he says the years of

sacrifices amounted to nothing. they killed their families how can i return to an area under their control i would rather die elsewhere just as long as it is in liberated territory. pro-government forces always stressed the importance of the fight thousands of troops were used in the final push. and. that's. who. can take over. the unity of. aleppo wasn't just another battle it changed the balance of power in the governments favor and gave it political leverage. it was a strategic game for the syrian government has shown no sign that it is ready to compromise or share power with its opponents where the so-called moderate rebels

made their last stand in the north their defeat weakened their voice in any political settlement. losing aleppo was for many of the opposition the beginning of there and. it is the end of the revolution for me. to live in dignity i can never go back because i am wanted by the regime and they will kill me. or the government december twenty two marks liberation and the beginning of the end of the war the opposition doesn't see it that way for them just like much of their country no longer belongs to them. successfully de mind. just in time for christmas but no traditional services will be held. stronghold in two thousand and fourteen. planted all over the
