a change in the ukrainian constitution and the adoption of a special law about the election. at least 13000 people have been killed in fighting over the last 5 years ukraine's with a day elected president polygamy is a lengthy wants to revive peace negotiations with russia but analysts say this stalemate consolidate demands by separatists the greater autonomy so you really. free and fair elections. under current conditions and that's exactly what moscow wants it wants to use this process with what it considers a weak ukrainian president who's growing more and more isolated from international partners in the west. manage at a very decisive moment and solidify the crime again from ground 0 as cases elections will be held only when ukraine regains control of all its borders with russia sale was niche i need well this means to journalists and members of the audience that there will be no election under the gun and they can't be any more

no b.-real if he carries full responsibility then i believe we should be able to ask these questions in that case mohamed bin so munch should give an answer. well geez case has sent ripples throughout u.s. politics and put washington and we are close relations in question i've had a has this report from washington. a gathering on capitol hill to remember. the event arranged by the project on middle east i'm ocracy the same organization that hosted the journalist's last public appearance in the u.s. before he traveled to turkey and his death. just over a year ago he was full of praise for the saudi crown prince crown prince thank you very much the day before muhammad when solomon had paid a visit to the white house a slight smile on his face as president trump outlined the financial importance of the saudi relationship some of the things that have been approved and are currently

under construction and will be delivered to certain area very soon but many in congress had a different view on the value of the relationship expressing deep concern about the saudi war in yemen there was always deep tension between congress and the white house on the issue of saudi arabia the war in yemen just one of the reasons stretching back to the involvement of saudi nationals in the $911.00 attacks the murder of u.s. resident jamal khashoggi added yet another layer to congressional theory this intensified even further after the cia chief briefed congress on the matter angering even the president's most loyal supporters i want to make sure that saudi arabia is put on notice that business as usual has come to an end for me the president though insisted the saudi relationship would be maintained dismissing questions about the crown prince's involvement as irrelevant maybe he did and maybe

he didn't writes a president this is a minute in the months that followed congress passed legislation opposing arms sales to saudi arabia demanding the withdrawal of u.s. forces supporting the war in yemen and insisting the administration a step to accountability for jamal khashoggi is murder. the bulls the smiths by presidential veto and a year after jamal khashoggi death congregational angus' still burns we're gaining bipartisan support here in congress for stronger and stronger action this is this issue is not going away the over rocking reality though that the executive will continue to defy congress from the solve the issue until it is changed either through the ballot box or by a successful impeachment trial of the president before the senate my kind of al-jazeera washington north korea's far 2 missiles off its east coast towards japan just hours after saying it would resume nuclear talks with the u.s.

be necessarily involves new infrastructure his comments have been met with concern in the anger in arlon which is against returning to a hard border or a challenge says this report from the conservative party conference in manchester. it's boris johnson thinking of bringing customs checkpoints back to the island of ireland it's what dublin fears after an irish broadcaster said it had seen leaks brecht's proposals sent by london to the e.u. and the british prime minister spent cheese day morning at the conservative conference in manchester denying it it's of course early days and we're working very hard to get a deal over the line i think the references that i've heard a plan over to papers don't actually relate to what we are going to table i think there's some. confusion about what's being what's being reported but yeah this is going to be. a difficult negotiation what breaks it means for the irish

border is still as foggy as the landscape itself to preserve northern islands delicate $998.00 peace deal its border with the republic of ireland must be kept open and free of physical infrastructure but after bret's it this will be the u.k.'s only land front here with the european union so hardening of the border seems inevitable solving this conundrum has eluded everyone so far boris johnson's predecessor to reason may and the e.u. agreed the backstop a fudge of sorts there would keep the whole of the u.k. inside the e.u. customs zone after bret's it until a proper solution could be worked out but boris johnson says he's ditching the backstop for hard it's never been a clean enough break. the government is about to send europe its final ideas for whatever will replace the backstop but brussels doesn't like what it's seen thus

far we have received by now and for documents from the u.k. as of last tuesday we have not received any proposals from the united kingdom that need or the object as a backstop as we have been retreating and demanding some analysts think the prime minister knows it's probably futile or since it has to square a circle get a deal the e.u. will approve of which will get through parliament at the moment that looks all but impossible so it's hard not to believe that actually in number 10 what they're gaming is a situation as to how best to fail to get a deal to go to the electorate to look convincingly as if you tried your best. parliament requires boris johnson to ask europe for a brakes if extension if he can't get a deal he says he'd rather be dead in a ditch than do so but he still won't explain in any detail how he can avoid it rory chalons manchester. experts say a section of a rapidly melting glacier on the italian side of blank could break off in the

section at risk is the equivalent in volume of $100.00 lympics swimming pools below it a valley popular with tourists if part of the glazier was to break away would cause a huge avalanche of snow ice and rock the wooden danger anyone using this road that is why the local mayor is taking no chances he has closed this road and walkers and hikers are not allowed to access any of the mountain huts in this area the mayor says the shrinking glazier shows how climate change is transforming the region. this is evidence of global warming we have higher temperatures in the summer and winter now so our mountains are in crisis our glass is a diminishing we must take responsibility and stop this as well chris and he lives in parts of our glasses with some tories staying away livelihoods are also it risk . and i really hope the outbreak so soon so it's over

because it's hard for me to work i make cheese but there's no want to buy it. how long the plough past you place you can remain intact is unclear but scientists say its case is far from unique nearly all of the ranges glaces all shrinking faster because of climate change what once seemed able to withstand the pressures of time is now very visibly fragile natasha al-jazeera italy. you're watching out is there and these are the top stories and hong kong hundreds have gathered outside the school attended by the teenager shot by police during protests on tuesday he was in a critical condition but tests and stabilised it was the 1st time a live bullet has been fired at a protester in this year's unrest mascot huyler's in hong kong with one that no
