trump's ukraine pressure campaign grows ever wider 100 pages of newly released state department documents show that secretary of state mike pump aoe spoke to president trump's personal attorney rudy giuliani twice in march that was shortly before u.s. ambassador to ukraine maria vonn of h. was removed from office scott lucas says it's not hard to win for when they were talking about but the day before pompei 0 2nd call with giuliani there was a time line prepared which set out all of the material about biden his son hunter and maria on a bitch trying to set up in other words a paper trail for the secretary of state of these alleged alleged activities by biden and yavanna bitch that wouldn't have just wanted an investigation by ukraine the impeachment inquiry is looking into whether the white house engaged in a coordinated campaign to withhold nearly $400000000.00 in military aid to ukraine until the president of vacuum tree publicly announced that he would investigate

president trump's chief political rival former vice president joe biden president trump denies that accusation i want nothing. that's what i want for you that's what i said i want nothing the newly released documents support this damning statement from embassador gordon sunland was there a quid pro quo the answer is yes everyone was in the loop we kept the leadership. of the state department and the n.s.c. informed of our activities and that included communications with secretary of state pompei o. the state department had refused to give those documents they were obtained through a freedom of information lawsuit by the watchdog group american oversight now senate democrats are asking pompei oh in a letter to recuse himself from the state department's response to the impeachment inquiry pump aoe was quick to respond i'm not going to accuse myself from this i

know precisely what american policy was with respect to ukraine i was working on it and i'm incredibly proud of what we've accomplished also joining in the circle of those implicated in the presidential pressure campaign is the president's top defender in the impeachment inquiry republican devin nunez clearly these little chris accusations don't reflect committee members who are honestly searching for the truth on saturday reports emerge suggesting nunez met with a disgraced former ukrainian prosecutor to find dirt on biden that is according to a lawyer for a businessman live parness indicted for his role in working with giuliani to prompt a ukrainian investigation of biden and his son if true the circle of all the president's men in the ukraine campaign just got bigger john hendren washington gave his own to joins us now from washington or where do things stand now with impeachment trial proceedings in congress. well it's very complicated but things are going to be moving ahead very quickly in the next few weeks right now it is

with the house intelligence committee that's been the committee that's been looking at this testimony this over the past week that we've been reporting on for so long now and now it's going to be moving most likely to the house judiciary committee right now the house intelligence committee chairman adam shift will be writing a report he will then send that report to the judiciary committee here we think in the next coming days or weeks or so and then it will be up to the judiciary committee to decide if they will draft articles of impeachment against president donald trump essentially those would be the charges against the president if they do that then it would go to a house full vote of the house of representatives a full vote that would decide if the house decides to impeach the president or not now when can we expect this process all to play out it's a little unclear at all depends on the various different factors but democrats have

said and signaled at least that they're hoping to have this process and in a pitch in pietschmann vote against the president done by that in december so off till it's happened what are the chances now that could be removed from office. well it's looking like if the house votes to impeach him that they would probably have the votes the democrats have $233.00 seats in the house the republicans only have $197.00 so the democrats definitely have the votes to impeach him and that's the way that it is looking at now but then it goes to the senate and the senate is the one body that will then have the trial that could last about 2 weeks or so maybe a little longer and it's the senate that will ultimately decide if donald trump is taken out of power or not the republicans control the senate by 10 votes 10 lawmakers in the senate they have an advantage there so if it stays along party lines. the senate would would not vote donald trump out of power but again this is

all going to be coming out here in the next weeks and months really but chances are now that it probably will go to the senate and if it goes along party lines the chances of a donald trump being a voted out of office seem unlikely at this point but there's still a long way of the process for this to go there isn't a thank you very much. austin has is executive director of the watchdog group american oversight which is the group that obtained the release of these latest documents he joins us via skype from washington thanks very much indeed for being with us so. give us an idea of what you think is the most important element to come out of these documents. in terms of the link to my pompei a phrase opel. well if you look within the documents the most important evidence i think is the direct paper trail connecting not just rudy giuliani to mike pompei a multiple times but doing so via the oval office one of these calls was set up

by donald trump's personal secretary who has been referred to in the past past as his gate keeper that's new evidence we didn't have that before and it shows that donald trump was using the power of the presidency to further rudy giuliani scheme which at the time of these e-mails and call which was march of this year seems to focus on the smear campaign against the sitting united states and vaster necessary extraordinary thing to think about the president of the united states the secretary of state of the united states were castrating the smear campaign against a sitting u.s. and master but the other person was just that these documents have never gone to congress american oversight got them because we could go to court but the congress has not received them which just underscores how my company or any administration writ large has been obstructing congress is it right that you don't actually know what what the content of those polls are and in in that case isn't it at best

seconds doubtful and something that again will be able to that they had it to say well if you haven't you have got proof that you say we're not admitting to anything . if you 0 in on just the words on news pages sure you don't know what was said but if you zoom out just a little bit in the us and to the testimony that we've heard over the last few weeks we do know what they talked about rudy giuliani is going to television to brag that he talked to mike on payroll about how the ambassador was bad news for term peace sent her he sent secretary a dossier of conspiracy theories about her we do know roughly what these phone calls were about we didn't know that there were this many of them and we didn't know that they were routed through oval office so in totality the evidence is just getting worse for the president worse for my pompei you know and again more than that this is the 1st time they're blockade on documents is breaking down as it were you know yes and if you expect him to either do what he said he more information

and what's going to be the biggest headline from that well we don't know exactly what the biggest headline will be but i can promise you american oversight and other watchdogs are pursuing documents related to the new cream scandal abusing the freedom of information act american oversight of loan has several dozen pending open records request and i believe it is for lawsuits with more to come to drive things out in the open and it was just as a piece so i didn't understand it is that potential mccain is a potential of damage to trump and that and republicans from this impeachment inquiry isn't that also potential damage that the democrats in that but potentially people look at this and think this is all kind of granular detail about ukraine and that people think the democrats and he backwards at something in the pasta not looking forward to what they might achieve if they did get into office. i'm sure i can't stand the types of arguments that donald trump's our allies in congress will make but that would amount to blaming the police for entering a bank vault after was robbed american oversight is looking for evidence congress

is looking for evidence because the president and his allies did something very very wrong and they almost got away with it just very quickly did you run into fox and friends after 2 weeks of testimony and you think he's rattled. i don't know if i can speak for the president whether he's rattled whether he's watching impeachment i do know that if i if i were him i might have woken up on friday morning you know 60 well thank goodness the testimony is over i know what the evidence is and i would hoop this morning a little nervous because i'm saying groups like american oversight are starting to crack down stonewall in getting documents that he wants to keep secret austin of us thank you very much indeed for the time talk to us and i was there thank you thank you and he's 36 people have been killed by a landslide in western kenya heavy rains caused overnight flooding in several remote villages in the west pokot region and rescue efforts have been put on hold because bridges and roads have been washed away more than 30 people are missing

that will authorities say the disaster is unprecedented. is a local journalist covering the story he gave us this update but for the little people being and. or been there probably had to get a lot of what and we know that they give in the book quite a bit before put the phone in there with it but don't think we've not yet the relief that this be in because obeyed by the board we've been a bit down the patently we had about 1000000 year break we got thought and. i think it is obvious about playing up in a bit old that the area that is happening because one of the big heavy down for that it is big it is in the area. i see most of the head on news hour including protesters gather for a 3rd day in colombia after defying a government pet food. travel trouble in sudan's red sea state as

a curfew fails to calm tensions. and his supporters a marine year makes a winning start to life as the new top manager here will have details coming up in sport. yes vice president mike pence has made an unannounced visit to iraq where he's met the leader of the country's kurdish region president. a senior u.s. official says the trip bill is to reassure iraqi kurds they remain washington's allies last month check you know watched an offensive into kurdish territory in syria not long after the u.s. withdrew most of its forces from the region. and earlier pens landed at an aside base he says he addressed the ongoing protests in a call with iraq's prime minister regarding our conversations with prime minister ahmadi we we spoke about the under arrest that's been taking place in recent weeks

here in iraq. he assured me that they were working. to avoid violence where the kind of repression that we see taking place even as we speak in around the he pledged to me that the that they would work to. protect and respect peaceful protesters as is a part of the democratic process here in iraq i also encourage them to listen to those who are protesting and their calls for reform. you know one person has been killed in the capital baghdad after security forces trying to stop protesters from reaching the central bank. and the. security forces fired tear gas and rubber bullets at protesters for a number of people were injured some demonstrators threw molotov cocktails and stones at these 330 people have been killed since protests began in early october

sparked by anger at widespread corruption and mass unemployment. at least 10 people are being killed in a car bombing in the northern syrian border city of tel aviv several more were wounded in the attack in an industrial area of the city which is controlled by turkish backed fighters has seen some of the heaviest fighting since and current launched a military offensive against kurdish y.p. g. forces along the border last month israel's opposition leader benny gantz says once again called on prime minister benjamin netanyahu to resign over corruption charges it follows that on yahoo saying on friday that he would not step down over the 3 indictments calling that an attempted coup imran khan has more from television. well against time to statement perfectly for the evening news and this was very much a message not just to the israeli electorate but to the likud party he said itself he actually spoke in that building just behind me here in the television expo center where he had an offer for prime minister benjamin netanyahu to take

a look at what you had to. call for unity government is a lodge is possible i will be the prime minister for the fish as well netanyahu can deal with his legal issues if cleared he can come back as prime minister this is the only way to prevent an unnecessary election. so the idea is that the prime minister benjamin netanyahu will be appalled all of the government but he won't have any ministries and certainly won't be prime minister instead of any guns just thing is that he fights his court cases and then studies result that they can take a look at any idea of a power sharing agreement and anything that might take place in the future between the good and the blue and white party whether that's going to be acceptable to netanyahu remains to be seen but the entire game at the moment seems to be avoiding a 3rd election we're in a period of about 17 days left where any member of the knesset can try and form

a government if that doesn't happen then the country goes to the election which is what all the politicians seemingly are trying to avoid so this was not a generous offer to netanyahu but very practical one to try and avoid going to a 3rd election that see what the prime minister has to say about this he's also under a tremendous amount of pressure from within his own the group policy as well gideon saw is a pretender to the israeli throne and he says he wants the could party to have a primary election internal election and to choose a new leader and to move on with the process of forming a government so netanyahu under a tremendous amount of pressure right now. and to get an impressionistic continuing in colombia for a 3rd consecutive day on. hundreds of protesters were dispersed by tear gas for an overnight curfew and isolated looting in the capital bogota president even ordered the curfew but thousands gathered on friday night in defiance taking part in demonstrations asunder amputee joins us now from bogota so

a 3rd day of these protests what's been happening. well lauren once again as you were saying in your introduction for us consecutive day protesters took to the streets of. small groups of a few 100 in different parts of this year they were protesting demonstrating peacefully but every time they tried to start marching towards downtown they were confronted by the police in particularly the largest group or close to the center. one of the main parks in the city were attacked by the police as they were marching and we also were there gas canisters were flying on the crowd and also the police used to stun grenades and people start

running away towards hills and we've seen this happening over and over again throughout the afternoon it also happened once again in the center of town close to class a volley of our which has been the epicenter of these protests but people are telling us that they want to continue protesting and that they will continue them straight to this fight this continues confrontations with the police the mayor. didn't say if there will be a 2nd curfew after the one that was imposed on friday night so we're going to have to this to see what the decision is there but he did make a reference to some of the looting and vandalism that we've seen in past days and he said this has nothing to do with spontaneous protests but instead he's convinced he said that behind the. political who he said are orchestrating

a plan to create panic in the city and across colombia and president because not that he'll start a national dialogue next wednesday will this. help quell the demonstrations. probably not lauren we understand that people are unhappy with the way the president has responded to the president to really demonstrations in bogota colombia is not used to sustained demonstrations especially in the capital in the major cities as it has been happening now for for 3 days in a row and people think that the president has been focused focusing too much on the vandalism on on saying what a great job the police has been doing instead of responding to the many of the man's that the protesters have some of them have to do with economic reform spencer reforms of labor reforms that were hinted to or announced by the government

but also the fact that they feel that this government is not doing enough to defend the lives of social leaders indigenous leaders that have been killed at an alarming rate and defending the peace process so the most likely thing is that this will continue as 100 mpg thank you very much indeed in bolivia congress has passed a bill paving the way for new elections it's hoped the developments will be a political breakthrough after weeks of violent protests in the country over its contested october election brianna sanchez has this update from. well the bill to call the elections was approved unanimously in congress after a heated debate now the interim president will enact it to begin the process of selecting members 2 for the electoral tribunal and set a date for a new election. will give new look to nicholas has done for the next government cannot be abusive either with the rural or urban people it has to be neutral to

manage the country well but if it's favors one or the other it will be lost part of the demands made by members of the mass party that's it will more or less as party was to take the military off the streets in turn the government wanted no more protests now streets have been quieter here in the past few hours after this past week clashes between protesters and the police and the army left 8 people dead here now the government wants all road blocks to be lifted to allow passage of food and fuel around the country but there are still many roadblocks that need to be cleared many parts of the traffic is fluid food is slowly making its way into stores but here there are long queues of people waiting to get gas and many here say they're not happy. things are not well yet we're not getting gas the government doesn't care we're being discriminated against not only here in the. sun in other places

around the country there are cars long lines of cars and trucks queuing up to get gas however here many people are saying that the approval of this bill to call elections is giving them the confidence that now the country begins to move forward . and the 6 people have been killed in fighting between tribes in the sunni state of red sea violence has broken out sporadically over the last 6 months in the region before she's of imposed a curfew but many say they want action to end on rest it has more from port sudan in the state a red sea. a few days ago mohammed was cleaning in the restaurant where he works when men carrying swords and knives and raided it and attacked him mohammad is a member of the benny ahmed a tribe he says he was targeted because of his ethnicity what began as a normal day at work and did with him in hospital contemplating living the rest of

his life with a serious disability. they're going with this i was simply walking the tables when they entered the restaurant in large numbers they were from the head on the one tribe and they started attacking us one drew his sword and with one blow it cut off my hand ethnic violence broke out between the benny amad and the head then there were tribes in sudan's red sea state last week it was the latest incident in wave of outbreaks over the last 6 months health workers say more than 6 people were killed and more than a dozen injured it started after an opposition leader returned to the state which had been under a state of emergency for nearly 3 months witnesses say people from his tribe celebrated his return but that provoked tension and fighting. who's from the head then to a tribe was among those wounded he says he was stabbed with a knife all of them were that i was waiting for transportation and suddenly i was it's on the backward in life i did not know what some of the fighting of that sorry but everyone throughout their lives and source of fights. since june sporadic

violence here has killed nearly 100 people and left more than 250 wounded according to health workers 2 pac's have been fined in the past 2 months to try and contain the tribal tensions but people here say they are worried they are temporary solutions to problems that go back decades. the people live in eastern sudan and also parts of neighboring eritrea but for decades other tribes have viewed them as outsiders and they accuse them of backing sudan's former government ousted in april after months of anti-government protests and while that government may have gone the rivalry hasn't sudan's new transitional government says it's working to resolve the problem but it will take time. for now we are focusing on the security solution because of the regular outbreaks of fighting between the tribes but the solution to the long term solution has to be political and that would need all sides to sit down and dialogue so while we were working on the political solution

we were addressing this by securing an increase in forces in the state to contain the situation. how much says he hadn't expected to see such violence but he wasn't surprised it happened and he worries that have no political solution is found there will be more are bricks of violence and more lives lost people more going on just 0 or so down. elections there live from london still ahead the internet in iran is back online a week after the government shut down the service in response to a wave of protests. activists call for justice in the philippines 10 years after the country's west political massacre. and in sport us here in the kailash if and just play another world cup record and support for their.

escape her violent partner when she moved out of their home with their children she'd suffered years of abuse but then one day in september he killed or join his friends in the northern french city of love say her murder made them determined to help other victims of domestic violence so they teamed up and launched a telephone helpline they've been flooded with calls. when we saw how joanna had tried hard to get help her death made us think we have to do something we have to be heard there are some organizations that help but it's not enough. in our city join a story touched our shocked many people raise the awareness we hope our suspicion will get people talking. it was outside her local supermarket the joanna tilly was fatally stabbed by her former partner in front of her 3 young children just weeks before her murder she'd filed a complaint with police but they'd done little to help. a woman is killed by her

partner or ex partner every other day in france many others face daily physical sexual and emotional abuse campaigners say that even though violence against women is widespread police judges and prosecutors rarely take it seriously every woman know because she heard that she will not nobody's going to listen to her go there is already the culture that if you go to the police you're not going to be understood you're not going to be listened and your case is going to be closed. for months cesar activists in paris have been running an underground campaign after dark they put up anti violence feminist messages in the street as people realize that this is mass killing disguised as crimes of passion one of our messages says you will never kill because of love so by raising public awareness and often women who are suffering violent tell us these messages help them to. the french government is working on new legislation to tackle violence against women but

campaigners say the proposal so far failed to address the root causes of abuse they say what's needed is to change attitudes to women and better educate children and adults domestic abuse often thrives because it is hidden these striking messages of bringing the problem out into the open where it can't be ignored natasha partner al jazeera paris. and in russia a small rally was held against a new bill which targets domestic violence russia doesn't currently have a specific domestic violence vegetation but this new bill would crack down on harassment and get stricter penalties for violating restraining orders conservative critics say the law would represent state interference in family issues. well efforts to introduce or strengthen laws to protect women from domestic violence have met resistance in some countries often from conservative politicians and far right groups as well as those advocating for traditional family values this. month

the kremlin said russian men are more likely to be discouraged they did against domestic violence investigations it was in response to 4 domestic violence cases brought by russian women before the european court of human rights a report in australia has sparked a debate over whether domestic violence is a male problem or connected more closely to economic and social disadvantage that position is that media coverage of domestic violence is mostly lies some political leaders are coming under growing criticism for the use of such a mistake and sexist language that somebody for a hindering the fight against domestic violence. beth makes with the national network to end domestic violence she joins us by skype from washington thanks very much indeed for for talking to us so what would you say is the biggest problem with domestic violence members it's kind of a to do with underreporting was it to do with the system not taking it seriously. i mean i think there or you know sort of a number of things that are always problems getting the system to respond but we do

certainly see a rise at the moment in the number of there are speaking out about wanting to change domestic violence laws we have a number of people here who are part of the all right who masquerade as women's organizations bar of the language and then ask legislatures to introduce bills that are actually drawn back women's rights so that sort of a new frontier to have to fight against for us what about that issue of and we saw that in the statement to the european court of human rights the russian deputy justice minister. downplaying the gravity of domestic violence and saying the problem of non-family violence is far more topical is that distinction that the kind of distinction between what happens inside the home and outside part of the problem. yeah to some extent because a lot of violence that happens xterm only it is born out of teaching

violence internally right and so we've had surveys done here in various states that talk about 80 percent of the inmates that they're housing have experienced domestic violence in their lives as they were growing up so. downplaying one for the sake of the other means that you're not able to address either appropriately it's not an other it's not a it's not on one or the other it's a book. that needs to be addressed culturally how do you address the kind of the to busan of it the fact that people don't you know often don't want to talk about it. well it's interesting because you know we've had this need to movement in the united states which was largely about sexual assault but it's really encouraged and emboldened women to talk about what's happening to them there certainly is a growing who all of journalists especially women journalists who are writing about the issues in great detail we just have a journalist run

a very detailed look by alliance against me to american women in alaska and. we've got reporters looking at what happens to women when they're jailed and why cults are used appropriately and so to some extent this hoosh from these kind of all right groups has actually bought into people to raise the conversation and we're just now starting to kind of on earth all of these things in the public sphere that makes thank you very much need for to understand i was there thank you sir. after 10 years families of the victims of the philippines worst political massacre say they may get justice a verdict is expected next month in the trial of $100.00 suspects accused of killing $58.00 people including 32 journalists tomato and got reports from manila. it is the single deadliest attack against journalists in global history and one of
