court sentences a former congolese rebel leader for war crimes including murder rape and using child soldiers. in a prominent camp odeon opposition leader is frustrated in his efforts to go home to campaign. former national security advisor to the us president donald trump says he's willing to testify in the impeachment inquiry john bolton says that he'll defy the white house and appear in federal court to testify is reportedly going to talk about his alarm at the ukraine pressure campaign if a federal court clears the way for his appearance let's go live now to washington as alan fischer can tell us how significant is this allan. i would think the chances of john bolton giving evidence in front of an impeachment inquiry are still very slim that if you put in right in the end if a federal judge gives his approval now if there is going to be

a court battle over whether or not john bolton can speak to the impeachment inquiry it could well drag on into the new year that's not something that the democrats want to do and so they're not going to take it to the court which will then go to appeal and then expect the supreme court to weigh in this is going to be dealt with by many people on the committee saying this is just another example of the white house obstructing is therefore we will add that to the articles of impeachment that would please the white house to a degree of course they're going to get the obstruction charge but it's understood that john bolton could be very damaging if he did give evidence in public that is because he is on record of being very critical of the way the donald trump handled negotiations with ukraine at one point according to one media report he described as donald trump's drug deal so he is going to support a lot of what has been given in evidence which says there was a quid pro quo donald trump was using this to try and leverage the ukrainians to

investigate the $26000.00 election and the alleged use of 7 servers there which has been debunked and of course to investigate one of his political rivals which of course would be against the law still john bolton saying that he would do that will send a shiver through the white house but the prospect of i'm walking through the halls of congress in the next couple of weeks to sit down in front of a public hearing to give evidence i don't think it's going to happen anytime soon today's witnesses jennifer williams who is she what can she adds to the inquiry. well this is all about just building up. testimony after testimony after testimony which supports the important parts of what the democrats are saying which there was a quid pro quo that donald trump knew about it because the republicans are no trying a new defense in that donald trump wasn't behind any of this that's all related back to court and so on dylan's testimony where he said yes the may have been

a quid pro quo we may have put a hold on ukraine's military aid but i'm not entirely sure who made that decision actually rudy giuliani's already told is that it was donald trump that made that decision so this is all about building up that evidence of having testimony after testimony after testimony that points to the fact that donald trump was trying to use military aid u.s. money to try and lever an investigation by the ukrainians into his political opponents switching tek here allan to iran and its nuclear proliferation if you can call it that secretary of state might compare was issuing quite strong words earlier on twitter what did he say. well he says essentially that. the iranians it's time for the world to take action against iran he sees a very small window of opportunity here because the u.s.

withdrew from the iran deal and wanted to put pressure on iran to come back to the negotiating table he thinks that the iran deal was a bad deal that certainly were donald trump said and so when they pulled out they hope that other allies would follow there's been sanctions on iran in the financial sector and also in the energy sector but the european allies have really stood by the deal to this point because they see iran being in compliance however there is some concern in europe know that the way around is handling this and they are escalating their nuclear program still within the agreement but it is causing some concern so might pompeo sees this as a real possibility to push against that open door to try and convince his european allies that they should get on board with the full pressure campaign and try and get around back to the negotiating table both course around and said they're not going to renegotiate this deal out of reporting live from washington alan many

thanks indeed south sudan's leaders of agreed to delay forming a unity government to the bed to prevent violence and uganda a mediating emergency talks between south sudanese president salva kiir and opposition leader bashar to decide how they should kogo of and as part of a 2018 peace till the great to extend the november 12th deadline by 100 days giving both sides more time to resolve outstanding disputes live out a car to mount a serious habit morgan is there for us what are the outstanding issues here why do they need one more 100 more days. well adrian there are several out thudding issues between the 2 parties who signed a peace deal here in the sudanese capital heartsome in september last year now one of those outstanding issues are the number of states that are in south sudan when a peace deal was signed in 2015 south sudan had 10 states in october 25th seen

south sudan's president salva kiir up to those number of states to 52 that is something opposition leader regular char had strongly objected to and asked for the peace deal that was signed in 2018 it needed to be revised that revision did not happen but the major sticking point between the 2 parties were the security arrangements asked for the deal that was signed there should be 83000 security forces trained unified and then redistributed around the country with have all of that being done and completed before a transitional government is formed that hasn't happened and opposition the direct machar had said that he is not going to go back to cuba and form a government of national unity and less that happens so that $100.00 day extension which is already an addition to another extension may at the november 12th deadline was another extension from the initial print transitional period that 100 extension that has been granted today to the 2 parties is for them to try to resolve those issues and now what remains to be seen is if that will be enough period for those 2

sides to sort out those issues that have been outstanding for quite some time these 2 men ever going to be able to lead together another some of the issues between the 2 of the this just isn't going to happen with where is the sticking bloc here is with the president with bashar. well at the moment both sides are blaming each other opposition leader rick much ari saying that the security arrangements really has been from the south sudanese government and president kerry has said that he was ready to form that transitional government and he is willing to let 3rd parties step and protect the opposition leader and till those sorts of those security arrangements also to doubt now it's clear that that is a deal that is an offer that opposition leader rick major had strongly rejected and he wants to see his forces being the one responsible for his protection and for what he says is the stability of south sudan but more important than that adrian we have to remember that this conflict the 5 year conflict which this peace deal had

tried to end or is trying to end has resulted in humanitarian crisis hundreds of thousands in need of humanitarian aid millions actually in need of humanitarian aid millions displaced by the war and the economy that people are saying is getting worse by the day. of zeus who will in their reporting live from cut to many thanks to the. cambodian opposition leaders from a banned political party prevented from returning home they want to leave hundreds of supporters on saturday against prime minister hun sen. the reports. from his home in paris sam rainsy says he's determined to return to cambodia he's been in exile for much of the past decade raese says he wants to gather other opposition politicians from the band cambodian national rescue party to lead protests against prime minister. office to the middle class he says it's to

a new government after weeks of protests demonstrators want the next government to be elected on merit rather than along sectarian lines and many fear that these closed door political meetings money be used to push the politicians own interests so you know how to reports from beirut. week 4 and protestors focus now is to paralyze the state they're blocking entrances to government institutions and companies across lebanon and demanding a government independent of political parties they blame for the country's economic crisis but the governing alliance is not budging from their opinion a purely technocratic government won't function because everything is like 2 political parties governments in lebanon have always been a reflection of the parliaments composition the biggest block belongs to president michel ouds free patriotic movement and along with its allies hezbollah and amal are the majority in parliament and government but that government collapsed last

week when prime minister's title had resigned he says he bowed to pressure from the street but his action also damaged the governing alliance in particular the iranian backed hezbollah which benefited from how did. ties with the west. the u.s. sanctions and they are becoming tougher it's beautiful live in all of his outside power so we avoid the repercussions but if the majority of employees support their presence then hariri will decide if he wants to hit that kind of government politicians are holding closed door this role for government but many protesters feel they are pushing their own political agenda and they also feel opposition parties are trying to hijack they're using the street in the talks to try and treat the balance of power that is not why protesters took to the streets and there are some political parties like the progress of socialist party and the lebanese forces

that use their supporters to block roads in order to impose their agendas and put political pressure to gain seats in the new government by blackmailing their partners in power politicians from across the divide all claim to support the demands of the people but many protesters say their voices are being ignored and they are demanding the entire political class leave office. have begun to dismantle migrant camps as part of the new crackdown began in northeastern paris up to 3000 people have been living there for years without any sanitation critics say the move is political and in attempts to win over voters from the far right and. unfortunately these large scale operations have taken place before every time we're told it won't happen again but we need proper processing procedures when people arrive in france in order for them to have their rights respected in camps like these about 20 percent of people refugees who are here

legally but have not been offered any kind of housing there are also homeless families well there are many people living in often squalid conditions in migrant camps right across france 7. of those camps have been cleared including what was known as the jungle in cali as well as. cook and. normandy but once the camps are cleared people often return to the same side. reports from parish. to say about 1600 migrants refugees asylum seekers living here in northern paris under this network of roads and i can tell you that the conditions are extremely school that they were intense in cardboard boxes there's no sanitation there is of course no food people are really relying on the charity of strangers or just having to take in the streets a desperate situation the mayor of paris had called repeatedly for this makeshift

camp to be cleared and that is what happened on thursday morning as about 6 o'clock local time 600 police officers came move people along put them on to buses and we are told that they will be taken to several shelters in the paris region where they will be processed those who are illegal all supposed to be deported others who can perhaps apply for asylum or supposed to be helped to do so now of course as clearance columns just one day off to the french prime minister announced a series of immigration measures he says that the government wants to be tough on immigration and for the government this is perhaps this clearance is perhaps a sign that they want to be serious and take it very seriously when they say so but it has to be said that there are others who say that this is little more than a p.r. exercise because these camps are evacuated quite regularly and the problem is people are often taken away to shelters but then very often they end up being released and they end up back on the streets. police in the u.k.

of course this is something that will need some training. teachers the minister said of the teaching that the training will start as early as january and that the lessons will go will be more or less 33 hours every year or so it is not huge amount but it is something that is according to me a very very good idea because we know that kind of change is not only a scientific question is not only a political issue but is very very much consul. people continue to call on president ever morales to step down many that are angry over the results of last month's election which they say was for dylan so there's a bow reports what was in sumburgh. the heart of bolivia's agricultural industry a move is underway to disregard presidency with the walls of. government we are
