including abuse of power and obstruction of the congression. and privately but trump and his white house team accused of withholding aid to ukraine to pressure it into investigating joe biden a potential democratic challenger at the 2020 presidential race. in service to our duty to the constitution and to our country the house committee on the judiciary is introducing 2 articles of impeachment charging the president of the united states donald j. trump with committing high crimes and misdemeanors the 1st article is for abuse of power it is an impeachable offense for the president to exercise the powers of his public office to obtain an improper personal benefit while ignoring or in injuring the national interest this gives rise to the 2nd article of impeachment for obstruction of congress here too we see a familiar pattern in president terms it's kind of

a president who declares himself above accountability. above the american people and above congress's power of impeachment which is meant to protect against threats to our democratic institutions is a president who sees himself as above the law we must be clear no one not even the president is above the law. well white house correspondent kimberly health is standing by for us but 1st let's go to her to show custer she's live for us on capitol hill and the house speaker nancy pelosi saying that she expects the charges to be brought to the house of representatives potentially next week heidi. that's why this is moving forward very quickly and already we have our hands on the writing the text of these articles of impeachment and of their 9 pages they start off with a very strongly worded accusations that trump the trade his nation and it remains

a threat to national security if he is allowed to remain in office breaking down those articles the 1st one abuse of power course this focusing on trump pressuring ukraine to intervene on his behalf in the 2020 u.s. presidential elections democrats say they he withheld u.s. security aid to ukraine and a white house a visit to ukraine's leader as leverage to have public announcements of investigations into trump's domestic political rivals now they say that he did this with the corrupt intent of putting his personal political interests ahead of that of national security on the 2nd article of impeachment obstruction of congress this goes to the cover up the democrats say that trying to do that they said this was an unprecedented effort for the chief executive in the white house to not cooperate with congress while it's seeking to fulfill its constitutional duty to oversee the

president democrats framing this as not only trump's presidency at stake. but also what message is sends to future presidents in this country and they are moving forward quickly elizabeth possibly with these articles being voted out of committee this thursday then the full house vote coming next week which would officially impeach president trump that is it expected to pass along party lines then with the new year is when we have the suspense kick in with the senate taking over the trial of president trump and of course as we know republicans hold the majority in that chamber and all signs are at this point there's little reason to believe that those that senators would convict and remove trump from office all right heidi thank you for that live on capitol hill where donald trump has once again been denouncing the whole process as a witch hunt on twitter let's bring in our white house correspondent kimberly how could and i'm not sure if you heard what heidi was saying which is the republicans

you know feeling pretty confident that they will not be removing president trump from office even though he's impeached and is that why the president you know sticks with his strategy and how he's engaged with the pietschmann process. yeah there's a pretty solid messaging that's coming out of this white house and from the press secretaries specifically as well as the president you're right unlike the impeachment back in 1980 that involved president bill clinton where we saw some movement from the other side joining republicans then to impeach president clinton we're not seeing that this time it's been so far pretty much straight down party lines we don't see any indications of any republicans joining democrats to vote for impeachment in the house of representatives when that comes about and so we see this white house really seizing on that the u.s. president not only tweeting well as he has consistently throughout the impeachment inquiry for at least 3 months or more that this is

a witch hunt but we've also heard from his press secretary stephanie grisham saying that this is a baseless and partisan attempt to undermine a sitting president to overturn the votes of 63000000 people she's referring to the 2016 u.s. election and calls these articles that have been released baseless now what we're seeing here is a real effort to take this now to the court of public opinion because of course there is a 2020 u.s. presidential election that's looming in the big calculation for democrats in all of this was will this actually benefit president can he portray himself as a victim a champion of the ordinary american voter it appears that there seems to be some traction as a result of the president characterizing himself in this way and it's happening in some key battleground states michigan wisconsin as well as pennsylvania and in fact this is really important because not only is the president getting some support in these key states this could help of winning 2020 but he's not wasting any time in

fact he's going to hold a rally in pennsylvania in the coming hours he'll be leaving the white house to take his message directly to voters committee thank you for that can really help it live in washington d.c. won't staying in washington and us house democrats have announced a revised north american free trade pact. house speaker nancy pelosi called it a victory for american workers following a year of negotiations democrats had been demanding mexico to strengthen the enforcement of labor laws a major obstacle in advancing the deal or president trump praised the revisions on twitter saying that it will be the best and most important trade deal ever made by the united states congress now has to formally approve the changes. now the u.s. has barred from entry the saudi diplomat who headed the kingdom's istanbul consulate when journalist was murdered mohamed el a thabiti who was the saudi consul general has been accused of human rights violations murder inside the consulate sparked global criticism against saudi

trump's request i made a trip to russia to meet with president putin and foreign minister lavrov the reason was pretty straightforward we should have a better relationship the united states and russia than we've had in the last few years and we've been working on that since that moment. our our bilateral ties are of course complicated we cooperate in some areas and other places we compete. over the course of my visit for mr labora lavrov and i agreed to continue the hard work the diplomats in gauge and we're agreed to keep our lines of communications open and keep our conversations candid as well. are talks today continued that we touched on counterterrorism counternarcotics our intelligence law enforcement professionals cooperate in these areas on a daily basis and will keep doing so and lame to make that cooperation even more refined and better on syria we are committed to working through u.n. security council resolution 2254 to find a political solution to the crisis there in syria i think we agree that there is no

military solution and we both want to assure the syrian never again becomes a safe haven for isis and other terrorist groups that same thing goes for afghanistan as well and we work talked about the cooperation that our 2 countries have had on half the issue that face us in afghanistan. today 2 we agreed on the final fully verified denuclearization north korea as our joint objective i raised the importance of sanctions and for an enforcement with foreign minister lavrov today these are all good positive areas where our 2 countries have cooperated and will continue to do so there are other places where there are greater challenges that as well as one of them the longer the nicolas maduro hangs on to power the deeper the misery of the venezuelan people. we've asked the russian government. to support the aspiration for democracy in legitimate and the legitimacy of enter and president won by though and the call that we have made for

free and fair presidential elections we also spent a fair amount of time talking about ukraine and i was a major part of our conversations for mr lavrov just returned from paris where president putin and president had substantive conversations i'm proud of what this administration has done in the defense of that country's sovereignty and security and i reiterated to foreign minister lavrov that crimea belongs to ukraine and that the resolution of the conflict in eastern ukraine begins with that here and to commitments made under the minsk agreements the president trying to is eager to pursue arms control with russia and with china we talked about that at great length today has to be. verifiable and force will include all the partners who have the ability to impact strategic security around the world and then too i had the chance to raise the issue of u.s.

citizens like paul whelan who had been detained in russia bringing home our citizens abroad as soon as possible as one of president trumps highest priorities we had a success this past weekend. and then on the question of interference in our domestic affairs i was clear it's unacceptable and i made our expectations of russia clear. the trump administration will always work to protect the integrity of our elections period should rush or already for an actor take steps to undermine our democratic processes we will take action in response if i want the russian people to know that the sanctions the united states is leveraged levied on russian individuals and entities are no way targeted the russian people we have no quarrel with law abiding citizens and we'll keep working on the diplomatic level to get this relationship right i want to thank you sergei for mr lavrov for coming to washington i look forward to our continuing conversations in the future thank you sir. as we move them on this but the point is the civil rights will move as it's not synced. with

michael but what he will praise my gratitude to those motions for the opportunity to meet here in washington. we accepted the invitation to visit the united states with a response visit after mike was in the russia in sochi in may of this year. where was a meeting with the president of russia and our quite detailed negotiations so we meet. on a regular basis but we over the phone we talk regularly when there's a need and today's meeting and that it is useful to communicate and with all the complexity of this current period our relations at the world arena are communication is always better that the absence of communication we in detail did discuss the situation but actually face changed views on the issues of the arms control on the regional conflicts and we spoke in a businesslike atmosphere candidly and trying not just to lis to

hear the other ones not to be said no matter that have different different views on different subject is nice may have to believe that overnight one can achieve a consensus on the key is serious problem was always the case to a big or small the extent of the small 100 percent coincidence or the positions of the task of democracy diplomacy is to find such solutions that without harming the basic in each part is. allowed to avoid conflicts and on the contrary will promote the constructive cooperation and of course we are green with our american partners mike has said that the situation he would call leading countries that contradictions differences it cannot be set acceptable is not doesn't benefit our countries nor the world community it creates additional damage and the world. and

in the world as a whole that's why we will contain the dialogue we have a mutual right and it's. all this and to find jointly but here it is to normalise they will lead to a little asia as we understand so that the joint work was hampered and continues to be hampered by the way or the suspicions towards russia which was all well washington. stress today it's all the speculation in respect to our. alleged interference in the internal processes are not as states they are groundless there are no facts would we would would be concerned we didn't see any facts of famine because nobody provided them to us because they don't exist i want to remind you that when started the 1st statements in this respect it was already on the evolve the elections of the president it how the system in the

united states. or over the channels which existed that between moscow and washington with administration or barack obama. requests that are many many times for american partners the opportunity to sort out this suspicious which were expressed in october of 2016 and the inauguration of mr trump there were no response has received no response as all our web question concerning that if you was suspicious let's talk about it and place the facts on the table there was a there was 0 reaction to this and when we when all this continued after the inauguration of the new administration of the president trump we proposed to our colleagues let's so that to dispel all the suspicions baseless suspicion let's publish the correspondence on this closed channel product talk about the other 60 or so step to deal november 2017 and it will become clear to many people and

fortunately the current administration refused to do it. sure but what i want to repeat where ready for that was just to make it public all these exchanges context which happened is over the channel many things will be called will occur if white still we expect that the arrows for nothing all this passions they will subside in 2050. fiftieth's back or take them subsided but here and to to return to constructive corporation a many candidates are proposed that today are we reminded about it. takes to lay down the mutual obligations on the noninterference entering internal affairs of each other according to the sample of the exchange of personal memoranda which happened in $933.00 when they were resumed ending the diplomatic. ties with united states and you're in soviet union and mr roosevelt proposed their american

party proposed a way agreed to exchange letters between rose well. and our minister of foreign affairs latrine of. the in the letters that will lay down the obligations of the not due to an interference into the internal affairs of each other it was then initiative of the american party where are ready to do some things similar at this current very very important stage in any event we agreed that it's not correct to pause the relations to interrupt or to push poll tool until later the corporations are banning its use of modern h. where ready to do to have this practical work of on all the specter all the issues of mutual interest and where ready with this but the degree of intensity which would be. suitable for partners one of the main topics is what the statistics the ability to draw their cash to the negative consequences of the

withdrawal of the us your say from the agreement on the liquidity. missiles we stress that as the current conditions after the agreement cease to exist we are interested so that they sphere of strategic stability here. doesn't go on its own and control as mr put in his statement still leading states according badasses states and other members of nato sad that the russia. has one sided meritorious on the side missiles. that they were the russia war on 2 of them in this originates. there appears an hour and a similar system of the american manufacture the proposal was made to our western partners accord in our eyes states so that it's a matter of terrio become some mutual. this proposal still on the table we spoke

today about the fate one more agreement of what. it is in february 20th 20 want. to start extended on the certificate offensive weapons russia country proposal even now trying to take solutions so their disagreement is expanded to rain you and mr putin a lately confirm this position in his public address. we also come for the proposal that again again according to this example of the soviet union or not is states take at the level of presidents the sadness of their not admissibility of the abolition of the nuclear war this proposal syria manes yes on the table a lot of the original affairs with spoke about about ukraine i detail briefed mr pompei and his delegation about the negotiations yesterday within the normal format

in paris about accepted decisions their body issues which they have to be settled so that 2 in fool in full in the direction of the fall the day before the fulfilment of the implementation of the miss agreements as important that the final document with the russian president or french and german and all the 4 parties agreed yesterday. of the mesa grimace and requires the full implementation of them it's a 100 percent position we spoke about. the necessity for those to continue. that is cautious on the way store overcome the crisis in iran iranian nuclear program you know our position with think that it's necessary to do everything possible to say save comprehensive plan on this securing of the peaceful nature of the iranian nuclear investigations research of course we're very much concerned about the sit around a situation which. taking shape in the profession are. straight and we

advocate so that all the countries who want to ensure security of shipping their consider their proposal which russia should be submitted 8 concerning this starting dialogue on the creation of the system of collective security in the area of the persian gulf we already conducted on that and the level of. expertise of the saturday community in september this year a special seminar in moscow many countries of the region including the arab countries or the persian gulf which took part in some european scientists probably pretty bad at the present is as a result of the united states i would hope next time they will take part in such an event as. that we also spoke of war the situation round venezuela russia. still said that the venezuelan people themselves should term in

their future. in told this shoots of. the us which was observed in the us law for much i thought shortly it was suspended and now they are but they observed at least so on iran. between the. moderate opposition i will produce a good result of the crisis will be. peaceful the result was a situation on the korean peninsula but we also stand for that. the korean peninsula and in this context we can see the very important the context between the united states and. korea of korea we hope that our position which we now also discuss with the say secretary position of russia and china with which a niece was called in 8 hour approaches to this is years will be useful. german

for the washington to determine it's for the line when the condition of this dead dead end of the day in the negotiation process recompensed so that overcome this dead that it's necessary to move on the basis of all the beneficial reciprocal actions when i should call it out their actions and. such in such a direction where ready to help in any possible way the current situation spoke about syria resolution 2254 s. what is the embraces all the frameworks which should determine their movements on the settlement in all this aspects we stress then. sure of the further operation of russian army states and out of place of the final eradication of terrorism in syria with all the need to resolve humanitarian issues and of course the need. a stable constructive political process which was started in geneva within the framework of

the committee i guess additional committee within when these syrian parties should agree on the future of their country we spoke or support other hotbeds of tension in the in the near east in the north of africa are quite a few of them there in the past also we have some joint interest or close dialogue on the libyan settlement regulations we cooperate in yemen also and of course it's very important to keep in view with a palestinian israeli israeli settlement which is really frankly is breaking a center critical. but about actual affairs with the presence of russia and its states even at the summit in helps in can 2008. and then at the meeting in our side in june of this year i agreed. on

a series of specific steps one of the results has been. a year ago an account carries. a few rounds were held it allows you to make it more effective the fighting of this. russian not as stated but whole community should we hold that this format will preserve its high in tacitly afters be. a change of the chairman of america mr sullivan is announced as about a stance tomorrow will be at the hearing since in 8 days on these show the appointment of there the better to russia we know him as a very professional an experienced diplomat will be glad to cooperate with him we assume that bassa to washington will receive this same level of support. on an economy in spite of the sanctions which as you know

everyone. trades under the book. has been growing from the level of $20000000000.00. which mr obama brought to this sort of level the president of the united states according to the results of this his year helped to arrange the level of $27.00 which valium is almost one to increase and it remains jobs in both countries growth of the profit your produces and if we impart additional impetus 1st their results would be even more. more beneficial for both sides where greed to find ways to will remove any irritants in. this situation. with their arrest of russian citizens abroad and this visa is serious both our delegations which take part in international events so we have been. indenture the russian

foreign minister. is visiting the u.s. secretary of state. washington d.c. both of them giving a news conference and talking about the number of issues outlining the issues that they have discussed in a meeting let's bring in our correspondent. who has been listening and she's also naive in washington d.c. and both sides saying that you know they spoke about key world issues patti's differences remain but they want to good relationship i thought the gracious difference perhaps was how they both spoke of surprisingly the russian interference in the u.s. election. so it was that was surprising and also the just the scope of what they say they talked about basically spin the globe stop it and it sounds like they talked about it in what wasn't the of a meeting but yes the most heated exchange there was about the interference in the u.s. election by russia that's a claim the u.s. intelligence community has made that is documents that special counsel robert

mueller has put forward giving evidence of that interference basically through use of the internet and he used to actually charged russians with that offense but to hear syria lover off say that if there are no facts show us the facts it didn't happen so that was really the most contentious issue between these 2 at least publicly right now so for the rest of the day they're going to answer a few questions we believe then they're going to have lunch and then it's going to go with secretary my comp aoe over to the white house we believe they're going have an oval office meeting with u.s. president donald trump which in itself is unusual presidents don't usually meet people below the level of heads of state the last time a president did that about 2 years ago it didn't go very well for the president it came out very quickly after that he had shared classified information with lover of about is really intelligence asset within i sold there was a lot of blowback against the president for that obviously this is all happening about the bigger. of that alleged interference in the election you saw secretary of

state pompeo come out and say we expect that to stop but this is all in the backdrop of the president being impeached facing impeachment because of alleged asking for alleged record interference in the political campaign in the next election so very convoluted scene here in washington right at this moment when circuit lover of chose to come back patty thank you for that for now that is patty call him with the latest live in washington d.c. thank you. now as a new president has promised to put domestic spending ahead of paying back loans to the international monetary fund. and as was sworn in a short while ago in the capital one inside ace. of the debt can't be paid back without growth and that he will be putting the people 1st fernandez's criticism research mocking face to public backlash over the $57000000000.00 loan human goshi ated with the i.m.f. last year. now the world trade organizations top court has been paralyzed it's no

longer able to hear cases that follows a campaign by the u.s. some say to undermine it or 2 of its remaining 3 judges of retiring the u.s. is blocking that replacement since 2017 president trump has blocked to the appointment of new judges he's accuse the court of going against american interests while almost all world trade is covered by w.t. overrules the organization was formed 24 years ago and built on the post world war 2 push to break down global trade barriers and curb protectionism one of the main functions is setting in and forcing rules for international trade so let's get more on this we're joined by data cheery ak a senior fellow at the global economy program at the center for international governance and he's joining us live from autumn in canada very good to have you with us on al-jazeera so the u.s. president donald trump says that the world trade organization is going against u.s.

interests but why do you think that the u.s. government has blocked the appointment of new judges. well it's not obvious that it is going against u.s. interests the u.s. has used to done very successfully to press a number of trade disputes who wins an awful lot of those cases it has lost some cases but that's certainly not an. excuse to state that this is a going against u.s. interests the specific elements that. procedural aspects of the dispute settlement in some that the u.s. has drawn out of these complaints about are not obviously you working for against the united states they are simply things that are ways that the body proceeds and. these may be or be not be within the understanding that was held by the parties when these provisions were originally put in place this is an

issue which is being discussed by veto members but why in large it is very difficult to draw a conclusion but this works against the commercial interests of the united states so there are the things of what i believe. what do you think that is the chariot. so in this is not happening in. sort of in a vacuum we are in a context where there's a need your global trade and technology conflict have been between the united states and china. for the united states trade policy is always subordinate to foreign policy and china is the big issue the w. me only not be helpful to the united states in its. campaign to get china to change is ways or to contain it or to decouple from it. that's an open

question but certainly using that. are at a time when things are moving very very fast it's difficult the deputy process is take a lot of time certainly most of the writing that we're seeing position papers etc in the united states are looking at using plural lateral agreements among slot like minded parties using bilateral u.s. agreements to to advance is treated genda the multilateral system is more or less on the backburner and not much loved on the moment china is the big issue from my perspective the problem of the wu has is that it includes china but does not include data which is the other big issue for the united states necessary at thank you very much for your expertise on this but do appreciate it for now that is that live in ottawa thank you. you're most welcome thank you. now campaigning for votes in the u.k. is that general election has entered the final stages ahead if the states poll it's

got a lot more from a european forecast and to died. yes that's right elizabeth the state of the national health service has been thrust to the forefront of the agenda after a photograph emerged of a 4 year old boy with suspected pneumonia he had to sleep on the floor of a hospital emergency department for brain reports. boris johnson's people know the power of a good photo of the styrofoam board for the front of the prime minister's breakfast metaphor on tuesday. using infrastructure education technology to bring the country together we have a vision of the united kingdom jerry corbin would divide our kingdom and i can tell you this we can do all of this as one nation conservatives was not putting up your taxes but it is this photo that's proved most politically powerful this week 4 year old jacqueline barr laid out on the floor of a hospital emergency ward for the lack of

a proper bed the prime minister's visible awkwardness when confronted with the picture has been seized upon by the labor party the story that was then yes those papers about. a crater on the floor in. may is not that an exceptional around the country the shortage of pads the shortage of nurses the shortage of doctors the shortage of radiologists and the shortage of funding. is an absolute scam. campaigning in the city of bath the liberal democrat leader reiterated her party's internationalist policies describing thursday's election as a fight for the soul of our country and what we all do for these last few hours will make that difference in terms of the type of country that we will be on friday and beyond because liberal democrats are in the position in so many parts of the country where we can stop for is just and we can win seats from the conservatives
