investigation as a partisan political witch hunt six have already been charged during the course of the inquiry jordan has this update from washington. so far the only thing that is certain is that the special counsel robert mueller has issued his report on alleged collusion between russia and the trump two thousand and sixteen presidential campaign to the attorney general william barr what's also clear is that the attorney general has been reviewing the document and is trying to figure out what if any parts of the document should be released to the white house to congress and to the u.s. public what is not clear is one how long this report is to how much information it contains three whether there are any recommendations for action beyond the special counsel's decision not to indict any more people it is worth pointing out that during this investigation which took nearly two years robert muller's office

indicted or convicted thirty four people and three companies for their acts involved in alleged behavior that is considered illegal under u.s. law meantime the decision on whether to release information in this report is following along partisan lines congressional democrats say that all of the information as well as the supporting evidence should be made public so that the american people can decide whether or not the trial campaign and by extension whether u.s. president donald trump did anything illegal congressional republicans are arguing that with the in. of this investigation and with the fact that there will be no more indictments coming because of the special counsel work that the american public and congress should just let the matter be and move on it's a dispute that will not be resolved just because there is a decision on whether to release any of the information contained in this report it

people have been killed and iran twenty two million depend on aid to survive yemen's failing economy has shrunk by fifty percent since twenty fifteen more than two thirds of small and medium businesses have laid off half their employees and food prices have more than doubled priyanka gupta has our reports. the markets of sun are once at the crossroads of trade in the middle east. today the street is an all calm market one of the oldest of the city a silly whatever little local farmers can produce prices a steep and out of reach for most the few who can buy are often in debt. and with a smile has a family of eight he's among the millions of yemenis for whom the war has meant sleeping on an empty stomach. the war destroyed the gulf arabs and the saudis and the u.a.e. destroyed us food prices are ten times higher because the yemeni real has no value

at present in yemen central bank is split between government controlled aden and who the control center saudi arabia publicly pledged a lot of two billion dollars but only to the bank in aden to keep the currency afloat as of december it had received only three hundred forty million dollars the money from the bank of aden pay salaries of government workers most of yemen's workforce. but five hundred thousand civil servants and who the areas haven't been paid it three years. black markets like these are try being in summer and in aden it's beyond imagination that there's oil shortage here in aden can you believe that patrol is not available in the patrol stations but it's available in the black market i am astonished to see trucks carrying patrol from the. even oil refineries but no idea where these trucks go and where the patrol. profits from yemen's booming coffee industry and farms have plummeted because of high fuel prices yemen

depended on its all exports before the war production has almost stopped since the conflict began is under the control of emirati back fighters. but the main problem is this the porton who data to which eighty percent of food aid comes in and that is out of bounds for most. the impact of the war and the crumbly economy has forced within twenty four million yemenis to depend on aid just to survive and humanitarian aid is not enough you need a political solution that is going to allow the economy to revitalize that will allow restrictions on imports to be lifted that will allow sellers to be paid the jobs created markets to be revitalized. such sectors to come back to life again so that people. you know slowly can start to sort of resume a life that used to exist prior to the contract i hope that perhaps many yemenis

as twenty thousand people have come out of what is a beautiful autumn evening here in christchurch to remember the events of nine days ago and see commemorate the victims but also to appreciate what the last nine days been about as well the coming together of a country because this country really has unified in opposition to the horror of what happened nine days ago this event began with the imaam of the lynwood mosque the second of the teams have been attacked he gave some prayers and then read out the names of all fifty victims all lives who lost their lives. by christie embraced by a catholic bishop and then we had maori songs a minute's silence from the national anthem opera songs on stage music performed by one of the high school students who knew one of the victims to being killed in the al nor mosque another student wrote out some poetry i was talking to some of those

gathered about how they felt the loss we could go on is just a sharing of everyone coming to get a feeling of community and is being is why marriage is just pouring in london has been a terrific. and started feeling about friends and family within community so i think it's been very speaks to. the trend to be keenly at the moment to be honest maybe. everybody here was off the stand in the cold emergency service workers who rushed to the two mosques after they were attacked and the was spontaneous applause for the prime minister to send out and when someone on stage thanked most people here thinks he's handled the last nine days in one man's words brilliantly well on friday will be a national memorial event nationwide and then the prime minister is likely to announce some sort of full inquiry into how those events were able to happen nine days ago we can expect to hear about that you coming days too.
