international observers as our diplomatic editor james bays explains now from the united nations. the un security council has started work drawing up a draft resolution that would indorse what was agreed in stockholm last week and give a mandate for a u.n. monitoring mission in yemen news that has been welcomed by the spokesman for the u.n. secretary general it will be. that it will send a strong signal from the international from the international community in support of the un's work of this where mr griffiths has done what mr cameron general camera . will lead the dutch general patrick who's leading the monitoring mission has been briefing the un secretary general antonio good terrorists on his plan i'm told the first members of the monitoring mission the assessment team will be on the ground in yemen on wednesday the watchwords i'm told or form follows function a look at the security situation to see what functions they need to perform and

then decide on the form the number of monitors they're going to need to come from member states the united nations people with military experience but people who operate on the ground in an unarmed capacity one of the problems the u.n. is facing here is that the talks in stockholm went much better than expected so the u.n. is having to pull together this monitoring mission at very short notice when i speak to someone nasser who is a yemen analyst she joins us on skype from new york thank you very much for being with us so how optimistic are you that the cease fire in her data will hold. the energy people are skeptical this agreement to hold true obviously the cease fire had a really started a couple of hours ago but unfortunately it has been already broken within the first half hour by reports on the ground that the militias have brought that seas are

or what are the issues as far as implementing the ceasefire the obstacles what seems to be a problem as far as you understand it yes so the problem really agreement when it comes to the. poor and the cease fire within that. the issue really is mainly that the language is very vague what are in the green and what are the security forces that they had signed up on who are the ones who are says another aspect is neck and isms are there committees going to be sent now we do know that the united nations has sent a committee that will be flying into yemen within the next week however shows that it is a sin example of the problem here in the monitor should be placed in yemen before the cease fire has been agreed upon well it seems like what they agreed on in sweden that a lot of people perhaps wasn't expecting an agreement or a ceasefire in sweden and that's perhaps why the u.n.

monitors were name place jest yet in the country how difficult will be their task once they arrive you think. very difficult the dynamics and headed are very i would say challenging and also. skeptical again that the situation as is so detailed that you know everyone's intent interrogated with and the society so militias are within the neighborhoods pro-government forces are also around the poor they have a very daunting task and you know what i commend them and we all commend them for this to this agreement however for yemenis we find that this may end up being this may end up fear and may end up killing regarding just as geneva one geneva two and in kuwait if it were to succeed peace fire the cease fire rather was to hold what about the prospects of extending it to other areas of yemen that are also you

know witnessing fighting right now do you think it could work for other areas. absolutely it can but there needs to be first accountability the issue again is that when a a side breaks in the cease fire or violates that cease fire there is no sense of accountability so what does that and how to deliver to look like it from the international community there needs to be a sense of respect to law on the ground and respect to the international community the yemeni people to is the kiss of terror is very important as well but the agreement will showcase the future of yemen if this agreement fails this means that yemen will prolong its conflict in the ground and then peace will be unfortunately . very far away thank you for speaking to us some a nasser yemen analyst joining us there from new york thank you for your time we appreciate you. i am any mother of a dying two year old is being prevented from traveling to the u.s.

armored vehicles to saudi arabia we are engaged with the export permits to try and see if there is a way of of no longer exporting these vehicles to saudi arabia u.s. airstrikes have killed more than sixty people in somalia the military says all of them were fighters from the. the pentagon says the attacks over the weekend in where in coordination with somalia's federal government is somali intelligence official told media that military vehicles and a camp were hit paddy kahane has this update from washington. there's military not giving out a ton of details but they do say that on december fifteenth air strikes were launched at about forty kilometers southwest of the capital mogadishu and that thirty four fighters were killed air strikes the following day on the sixteenth killed another twenty eight fighters for al shabaab the u.s. military says they don't believe any civilians were killed or injured in the

bombing campaign the associated press is reporting that sources inside the somali government say that the reason for the attack was they believed al shabaab was about to launch an attack on a somali government military facility so the airstrikes were called in we've seen a pretty sizable increase in the number of air strikes in somalia since u.s. president on trump came to office he's given the u.s. military pretty much across the globe more authority to launch air strikes this will be the most airstrikes in recent memory in somalia conducted by the u.s. in cooperation with the somali government this brings the total to forty six airstrikes for the year china is marking forty is since its economy opened up to the rest of the world by the anniversary coincides with a major trade dispute with the u.s. both sides agreed to a ninety day to say earlier this month to allow for negotiations aimed at ending the standoff beijing has already agreed to buy most soybeans and reduce tariffs on cars the u.s. accuses china of unfair trade practices

a charge beijing denies speak to our china correspondent adrian brown in beijing for us. given all that's happening in china's trade tussle with the u.s. this week is very timely do you think it could contain concessions for the trump administration and if so what are they likely to be. well there's no doubt the trumpet ministration will be hoping for some concessions i think though there may well be some misplaced expectations i think there will be concessions but i think there will be minor concessions what the trumpet ministration wants though is to hear a pledge from china's leader that it's going to win this system whereby american companies that do business here in china are forced to hand over their technology to their partners as a condition for doing business here there's also the issue of forced technology transfers and the feeling among corporate america that they simply do not find a level playing field here in china now those are big demands but i think the

president will try to go some way towards meeting them but we've heard pledges and promises made by china's leaders before and they simply haven't been met that the words haven't matched reality the history of relations between china and the united states over trade is really one marked by you know failed promises but this is nevertheless a very timely day as you say this is exactly forty years since dung sharping outlined the start of an experiment really that that no communist government had ever tried before that she would simply end the planned economy but keep the communist system a communist system managing effectively a capitalist system this is when china began to tiptoe into capitalism and of course the impact of what was begun here forty years ago is still being felt today i mean look behind me and you can see just how china has changed you know an

endless line of traffic new highways new skyscrapers it really is a country that has come a long way very quickly and this is one of those days when you sort of pause just to take in all that this place has achieved in such a relatively short space of time i mean you know this is a country now foley will be have six hundred billionaires but still around about eighty million people living on less than two dollars a day. so do chinese leaders really have something to celebrate for them i think they do i think they can say look we have managed to prove during the last four decades that you can grow an economy without democracy without a free internet without you know a free media and without being overly concerned about human rights so they will see that as a success and of course we will hear plenty of words today from president xi jinping

that the reforms begun by dunc shopping four decades ago are going to continue that reform is going to deepen yet really since shooting ping became president we have in many ways seen an almost opposite strategy thank you for that adrian brown live for us in beijing plenty more ahead on this news hour including sure lanka's prime minister celebrates his reinstatement with a promise of stability after a two month political crisis blasts. were in the in their refugee camp by the million borders find out next time this temporary shelter has become the fourth largest town in mauritania and in sports some of europe's biggest clubs are unable to avoid being drawn against each other in the champions league last sixteen details coming up later with peter.

in britain the leader of the opposition is submitting a motion of no confidence in the prime minister that's after theresa may push back a crucial vote on the country's deal to leave the european union to next month with exit day on march the twenty ninth fast approaching and with no deal officially in place some politicians say the deadlock can only be resolved with a second referendum already and reports from london. with prime minister theresa may adamant there would be no meaningful vote on bret's it until january parliament appeared almost pointless on monday but having failed to make any concrete progress in her talks with european leaders in brussels last week is may was judy bound to report back to the lawmakers in london she acknowledged the widespread hostility to have a plan but she warned bravely against holding another referendum another vote which would do irreparable damage to the integrity of our politics because it would say to millions who trusted intimate prosy that our democracy does not deliver. another vote which would likely leave us nose further forward than the last and another

vote which would further divide our country at the very moment we should be working to unite around the threat of a no confidence vote in the prime minister organized by the opposition labor party appear to have been neutralized and theresa may set the week of january fourteenth for the rearranged meaningful vote to justice proceedings drew to a close labor leader jeremy called and decided to go for it so mr speaker as the only way i can think of of ensuring a vote takes place this week i'm about to table a motion which says the following that this house has no confidence in the prime minister due. to our failure to allow the house of commons to have a meaningful vote straightaway on the withdrawal agreement and framework for future relationships during the u.k. and the european union and that will be tabled immediately mr speaker thank you to . the procedure now is that confidence motions tabled by the opposition will take

precedence over government business and its parliamentary convention that any such request be granted this week that seem to be winding down into a christmas holiday just warmed up again given paul brennan al jazeera. jonathan less is the deputy director of the e.u. think tank british influence he explains why no bracks it will be less harmful than no deal. it wouldn't be a referendum on the same lines as twenty sixteen it's not an arbitrary level remain it's do you want to have this deal or do you want no deal potentially and so people actually know what's the options are so it doesn't doesn't quite work in the same way and also there's just people one voting for no deal option when you say it's a compromise the integrity of politics what does a no do sonority which actually jeopardizes people's lives more and more people in the e.u. sorry to say openly that they think that might not happen i was a city our shamsi half an hour ago i mean to say in the web and if britain leaves on the right who to talk to journalists so this is actually being factored in see

process decision making because no breaks it is also going to be a lot less harmful than the deal is unacceptable to parliament for the same reason it's acceptable to the e.u. and the irish government that is because it has no unilateral breakthroughs and no end point and if you change that one way it would then be on except for the other side so there's really no middle ground on this. riot police in hungary have been trying to control thousands of anti-government protesters in the capital buter pests the crowds are angry about a new labor law passed in parliament last week that allows employers to request up to four hundred hours of overtime a year without paying out for up to three years prime minister viktor obama's right wing government says it's an attempt to fix a labor shortage in the growing manufacturing sector and allow workers to earn more but critics call it a slavery law and have been protesting since it was passed members of the u.n. security council have expressed concern over kosovo his decision to turn its security force into an army the announcement last friday angers said b.n. prompted this acuity council meeting on monday un peacekeeping chief john piano

videos and their own one hundred sixteen thousand instagram posts all together that translated into a potential of reaching more than one hundred forty million people one of the report's concluded what is clear all of the messaging clearly sought to benefit the republican party and specifically donald trump. but one expert says it's not clear if just pushing the message had any impact the russian certainly tried to interfere in american elections and continue to try and interfere in american politics are they actually making a difference it's not clear what they're doing legal in some of the more indictments of shown certainly not but it's really important thing to separate out affective mess from legality and morality right these are all survive different issues and difference of stakes a place reports say that the russians push conservatives on key issues like gun rights and immigration while sending misinformation to largely democratic supporting african-american voters are doing them to boycott elections and they support u.s. intelligence reports of russian interference and the action of special counsel

robert miller who's investigating possible russian collusion in the election to indict a number of russian hackers and officials president donald trump has both criticized possible russian interference and describe it also as a hoax president putin he just said it's not russian except our intelligence community his conclusion that russia's meddling in the two thousand and six election took place the report also criticized the tech firms who provided data to the investigators saying that they seem to provide no more than the minimum information required and will add to pressure on those firms to do more to prevent election interference the report does not cover any potential action in the recent mid-term elections the committee's leading democrat mark warner says it's time to get serious in addressing the challenge of interference and he hopes there could be legislative action to follow alan fischer al-jazeera washington. well i saw speaks

more best of both rothschild he's a republican strategist and founder of the consulting firm rothschild policy and politics is live from washington thank you so much for being with us so what do you make of this report and its conclusion that russia started meddling in u.s. politics two years ago and is still interfering today. well you know this is not anything new courting these reports but the one thing that we're trying to kind of what these reports are all about is trying to find a link between russia and evolvement and donald trump and they have not found that yet so i like senator byrd today came out and said you know this is very concerning and i think it's concerning for both republicans and democrats to have any kind of foreign government interfering with democracy i've have done that have republicans expressed that concern no i mean you you you

don't hear them we haven't heard the president did nonce add these reports as you say it's not the first one but this one is certainly a very damning one well it's you know republicans and democrats should be concerned and i think you will find like senator burr saying hey this is something that we knew about this is something that's concerning and this is something that we really should look into in because there's currently no laws. talking about interference in our elections from foreign companies for countries but also do you think this is something that can be done about this. you know that's something that you know as congress goes for they're going to have to look at what kind of legislation they can put forward to you know see if there's anything that they can do legally on this and this is social media we're talking

about we're talking about a million dollars worth of social media currently and we were it's a two billion dollar election so whether or not these social media platforms really and foot affect the campaign or not it's to to be determined yeah the reason i ask you this about you know whether or not you know they should be more a more forceful denunciation of this is because you know in other governments other western governments in france for instance when there's been reports of russian interference that the government and all political parties from all spectrums denounce it forcefully denounced it and this is not happening in the u.s. perhaps if it's if it was the from the trumpet ministration itself then this would undermine the social media actions don't you think well i think trump needs to see more evidence i think everybody needs to see more evidence and how much more evidence finally there's been several reports this is not the first report as you've said yourself well republicans have some republicans

have came out and denounced and some democrats of came out in denounced it so i mean they have to look at how they can enforce of social media in other countries that are in or interfere interfering in our elections and just because they're saying it doesn't mean they're doing something about it. a lot of republicans seem unbothered by the russian meddling perhaps because it benefits them. but but you know this misses the point about you know this is not just about targeting democrats or republicans i mean this is talking the democratic institutions in the united states aren't the republicans being shortsighted here by shrugging this off . but they're not shrugging it off senator byrd today said quote unquote he said that this is concerning to us he he knew they knew that this was going on

but they're not they're not coming out and saying oh we're supporting the russians getting involved in our elections they no one wants that that's not democracy it's pinus ok well thank you for speaking to us about this bull rush republican strategist joining us from washington thank you for a time former f.b.i. director james comey has called on us republicans to stand up for the values of the country answering questions in congress komi said president constant criticism of the f.b.i. was harmful to the rule of law trump claims investigations into alleged links between russia and his presidential campaign are illegitimate witch hunts the president of united states is lying about the f.b.i. attacking the f.b.i. and attacking the rule of law in this country. how does it make any sense at all at some point someone has to stand up in the face of fear of fox news fear of their base fear of being tweets stand up for the values of this country and not slink

away to retirement but stand up and speak the truth. only half of the central americans who were part of the so-called caravan of asylum seekers have entered the u.s. most are waiting to get in through the mexican border town of to juana u.s. authorities say that nearly three thousand people have now crossed in illegally they're being held in custody while their asylum claim is reviewed. reports on the mexico u.s. border. the border patrol has been in position since early morning. trying to discourage asylum seekers from taking the leap. instead in a matter of minutes to him and five teenagers and three children had to touch u.s. soil and quietly surrendered to the guards who seemed preoccupied with the presence of journalists operating on the mexico side a times using a threatening terms that some people say their reporters are helping and

punishments all of them just on us against the law. but also coming under pressure from american citizens you know separate children from their hair was brought up on a girl done last week border patrol care. with each day that passes more silent seekers are crossing illegally into the u.s. it's a scene that happens in many spots along mexico's northern border just a few days ago we witnessed several people crossing from this exact point in the meantime a second layer was added to the wall and it's nearly doubled the height making it more difficult to scale and riskier to jump off on the u.s. side. but a few kilometers away it's still possible and it follows a pattern get over the wall then look for the border patrol to take you away see federal law lead the way in my explained step months in custody in the u.s. is better than one day back at home in el salvador and safe she has already done

this once before in june and was deported back to her country she fed that game. under threat and now hopes to be accepted as a refugee. this time she's with eight months pregnant everyone who wants to get turmeric or before to be b.'s jute being born american will give the baby opportunities she never got in life it's a practice that president trump was to put an end to the herd honestly i'm not afraid now but i might get nervous at that very moment now i'm calm. for a brief moment to two sides stare at each other every one of these people and off they go there's a little hesitation and. a sense of urgency evidence father is worried about her. over there more to. come on darling you can make a t. says. doug. it looks like she's not feeling

too well she either hurt yourself while getting over the wall or maybe it was just too much stress for her pregnancy. we don't know but of linda's taking away the rest the question they will spend the night in custody one of the rare times where detention represents the possibility of a new life. but at the hammy urges iraq along mexico's corded border. staying in mexico where big changes are on the way for more than two million domestic workers supreme court judges say they will now have access to the social security system including health benefits and child care john heilemann reforms for mexico city. a frugal breakfast before isabel heads out to clean someone else's house more than two million mexicans almost all of the women start the day in the same way in this small army of domestic workers almost no one has health benefits job

security or a pension for isabel at fifty nine years old that weighs heavy but. the future is very uncertain i live day to day i don't know what will happen tomorrow. but things are changing and the claim new film roma dedicated to the domestic worker who helped raise the movie's director has helped make the more visible and more time to play the supreme court has just ruled that they now must be signed up to state social security that means benefits like child care housing loans and health care it's what the small but determined domestic workers union and its founder muscling about have been fighting for years fool she explains why it's desperately needed that i mean. our quality of life goes downhill while our employers just get better they get ill less but when we get ill we don't have any health benefits they don't have to pay for childcare or an old age home but we lock up our children or
