syria's deputy prime minister has used his address at the united nations general assembly to demand the immediate withdrawal of all foreign forces while it told world leaders his country is open to international dialogue but never at the expense of its national integrity supreme atic i just said james space has more from the u.n. . syria's deputy prime minister walid muallem again representing his country at the u.n. general assembly hit out at 2 nato members for their military presence in syria. and were to the united states in turkey maintain an illegal military presence inside northern syria they have been so arrogant to the point of holding discussions and reaching agreements on the creation of a so-called safe zone inside syria as if they were planning to establish the zone on american or turkish soil the u.n. believes this is an important moment for syria after 8 and

a half years of war at the end of october 150 delegates comprised of 3 groups nominated by the assad government the opposition and representing civil society will meet here at u.n. headquarters in geneva under these terms of reference the committee will come up with a new constitution for syria the authority for the new committee is a u.n. security council resolution from 2015 it also calls for free and fair elections something that hasn't happened in the country since half as a last sad the current president bashar is father sees power in 1972 can you guarantee to us now will be as that resolution says free and fair elections can i guarantee that this will take place no but as the right to stated this is part of my mandate it's very clear to stamp that stated and it's also in for national consensus that's the truth take place some diplomats on the u.n.

security council are extremely cynical about the assad regime's decision to support the constitutional committee at this stage they believe that their main focus is still the military operation in it and they're trying to keep the constitutional committee busy until they can declare a military victory james pays out his era at the united nations. flash floods in northern india have killed dozens of people and left thousands homeless have a monsoon rains flooded large parts of india's northern states of pradesh bihar forcing found houses to seek higher ground and evacuate their homes at least $44.00 people are purported to have done this week across the tuesday as a result of the rain and heavy rain is forecast to continue in northern and western india until monday the u.s. special envoy to ukraine kurt volker has quit after being named in a whistleblower complaint volcker is one of several officials accused of trying to cover up an incriminating phone call between president donald trump and ukrainian

president vladimir the landscape the whistleblower accuse chump of pressurising his opposite number to investigate his political rival joe biden has been asked to give evidence to politicians about the call earlier we were joined by matthew cook for from the kiev post newspaper he says kurt volker will be missed in ukraine. i think this will be a very negative event will be perceived quite negatively in ukraine volcker was highly respected both in ukraine and on both sides of the aisle in the u.s. he was seen as a positive big year a lot of people in ukraine say that he was very sensitive to the issues he listened a lot and he also from the point of view of the u.s. he was someone who could push negotiations and and approaches to the pretention resolving this conflict even sometimes when they weren't necessarily entirely palatable and ukraine in general this a very highly respected individual and it will be a big loss or i think u.s.

foreign policy in ukraine as well as for attempts to regulate this conflict in eastern ukraine well if we look at the whistleblower complaint we don't be honest i don't think it is extremely damaging to her whole career we see that he was trying to help the craniums navigate this very complicated and unpleasant situation with donald trump and rudy giuliani and the gala has more from washington d.c. . or president trump tweeted do nothing democrat savages but this investigation seems to be widening out there are now reports that the president or his staff may have put other conversations into the same secure server as the one between him and the ukraine president selenski these are conversations between president trump and the saudi royal family and putin of russia so while the democrats really want to focus on the ukraine and that's been made clear by nancy pelosi the leader of the house that the investigation is getting wider all the time there's also questions

about the attorney general's role in this and rudolph giuliani the former mayor of new york and personal lawyer to president trump so the net is somewhat tightening and if you watch president trump over the last few days when he's talked about this he seems to paraphrase him to be fairly low energy about this because the essential thing to remember is this is an issue that is far more understandable to the american public it's an issue of quid pro quo did president trump withhold funds in return for dirt on his political rival that is the question that is now being addressed but as i said the investigation is getting wider and staff at the white house seem to be getting more nervous. plenty most all to come in this news hour including chaos in the streets of haiti as a police station is targeted anti-government demonstrations planned. on dominic cain in the austrian parliament on sunday voters will elect new members to this

a no confidence vote down when it came reports from. his people's party is riding high in the polls and his message is simple only he is fit to lead his country where a majority of the previous parliament had no confidence in him sebastien court says he has confidence in the voters let's more recently the amount of support for us across austria has been amazing so many people told us they wanted to continue working for austria but just as many people say you're going to win it it's already decided my friends this election is not yet over. analysts cortes is attitude has been to try to pit the people against parliament always hovering around a bit because on the on one hand. we have got a new movement out of an old party on the other hand he's telling everybody that he has the most experience most senior most long standing member of the government the party that used to work with him and then combined with others to oust him is

struggling in the polls the far right freedom party was forced from office when video emerged of some of its leaders appearing to advise russians how they could gain influence over austrian politics and the media now its new party leader says he and his colleagues must learn from their mistakes and fight hard for every vote this is riyadh it is worth it to continue this fight and do everything to get a government again with us in it which is so active so much liked and which does a lot for our country. the center left social democrats face a different fight having voted with the freedom party to remove sebastian cortes they must reckon with voters angry at being forced into an early election this is enough i learned is that every vote for sebastian cuts makes a rerun of the ip the coalition more likely after september the 29th and therefore there is only one way to prevent that by voting for us dear friends the social

democrats in austria surveys suggest the resurgent green party may do well on sunday and perhaps become a factor in coalition forming but as the clock ticks down to when voting starts it's clear who's out in front in the old parliament mr courts and his party occupied all of these benches in this part of the chamber if the opinion polls are right after sunday's general election they might find themselves spinning further over into these benches but will he and his party gain enough seats to put them back into government will find that out on sunday evening dominic cain al-jazeera in the austrian parliament. well protests planned in haiti next week as the political unrest over food and fuel shortages shows no sign of abating at least 4 people have been killed in recent days during violent anti-government rallies demonstrators accuse presidential juvenile way say of corruption on the all

demanding his resignation munroe regular reports from the capital port au prince. chaos has taken over the streets of port au prince. what started as demonstrations over an ongoing fuel shortage has grown into a nationwide protests calling on haitian president just now to resign no diplomat the president promised the haitian people to lift them from poverty to pull them out of the dirt and when he became president he made everything work. on friday thousands took to the streets authorities in the haitian capital tried to control the crowd but with little effect mobs of angry demonstrators broke into buildings and looted businesses. already. several people have died. one police station was vandalized by looters and nearly set on fire people could be seen running off with police skiers things like riot shields body armor and anything else they could carry or thank you but those years if the president really

loves haiti he should resign he should wait for there to be more looting in the streets for him to resign. with nightfall the streets of the haitian capital have quieted down and the city is now under a sort of self-imposed lockdown. well let's go live now to manuel who is still in port au prince you've been out on the streets of the capital today i would say fair like is it tense. absolutely today is a much different scene than what we saw things like yesterday of course if you and i don't know if you can actually see behind me you're no longer seeing those clouds of smoke billowing from the roadblocks and from the tires some are set on fire to block streets all the problems or differences with icons the violent scenes as i mentioned thousands of people that were dispersed by police as that with the little effect religious police used tear gas a time to use live ammunition but angry mobs are still able to do it to loot

buildings if you're able to see the images and swearing that that we said over yesterday that with the police stations that was almost it on fire they were actually 2 police stations that were looted here in the city of port au prince what we're seeing today is people taking up the pieces trying to return to normal life a really what we're seeing are people standing in line waiting for waiting for water getting in line trying to get fuel the fuel shortage here if we're different than the rest of haiti is really would support these roads in the 1st place without without fuel people are unable to go and get water or have water to live in their house so some of the folks that we've been speaking to are having to walk 1520 or 30 minutes just to get back to their homes with water that their collections of water stations across the city and the sense that we think the calls that we're hearing from the opposition are for people to continue protesting how do you get the sense that this is an uneasy calm at the moment and it will spark off again on

well are we looking at people still willing to escalate this. it's. absolutely the stench of the tension still palpable in port au prince the president presents of boundaries as calls for a national dialogue and opposition are not taking if there is absolutely no dialogue the. place in the country people are not only are sad about the fuel shortage but people are are saying when we asked them what they're so angry about the reference line placed in the reference that devaluation of their currency is a reference to the high import tax of the country things that all coincide with the administration in the beginning of the presidency there are always so there is a sense as i mentioned there's cause for more protests in fact there's another large protest we don't know if it's going to be as large as the one that we saw over the course of last week and i write it all another road just being all of them one day they obvious question manuel is is the government listening to these protesters and is there anything they can do to respond to these demands.

that that might be the $1000000.00 question here for many people the only true solution the only possible solution would be a political one since there is no dialogue taking place between the president's party endeavors of the opposition if you ask the average person here in port au prince what they'd like to see how do you like to see this play out you're likely to get the answer that the only peaceful solution out of all of this family is for the president to resign many thanks none of our fellow there speaking to us live on those protests in 18. students have once again been marching through the streets of the colombian capital bogota they're angry over allegations of corruption and misuse of public funds at a university as well as the place was sponsored to. asunder m.p.'s was at a march. what started the last monday as a single and take corruption protest on part of the students of the district public university here in boca has grown into
