pushed for his resignation. back for a 4th time lebanon named sadly even as prime minister again as the country battles a political and economic crisis and. the 2nd and final debate between president donald trump and democratic nominee joe biden was a less chaotic affair than the previous encounter they had lively exchanges ranging from the economy and health care to corruption and election interference the pandemic kicked things off trump promised a vaccine against the coronavirus very soon in his opening statement well biden told him to the president over the more than 200000 americans who have died so far . it will be by the end of the year but i think it has a good chance or 2 companies i think within a matter of weeks and it will be distributed very quickly to tell us which

companies johnson and johnson is doing very well mode earner's doing very well pfizer is doing very well and we have numerous others then we also have others that we're working on very closely with other countries and particularly europe let me follow up with you because this is new information you have said a vaccine is coming soon within weeks now your own officials say it could take well into 2021 at the earliest for enough americans to get vaccinated and even then they say the country will be wearing masks and distancing into 2022 is your timeline realistic do i think my timeline is going to be more accurate i don't know that they're counting on the military the way i do but we have our generals lined up one in particular that's the head of logistics and this is a very easy distribution for him he's ready to go as soon as we have the vaccine and we expect to have 100000000 viles as soon as we have the vaccine he's ready to go 220000 americans did you hear nothing else i say tonight to this anyone who's responsible for not taking control in

fact not saying i'm i take no responsibility initially anyone is responsible for that many deaths should not remain as president of the united states of america. well joe biden says he'll take action against any foreign powers who interfere in the election. any country no matter who it is that interferes in american elections will pay a price they will pay a price and it's been overwhelmingly clear this election won't game get into the last $1.00 this election that russia has been involved china's been involved to some degree and now we learned that that iran is involved they will pay a price if i'm elected they're interfering with american sovereignty that's what's going on right now they're interfering with american sovereignty and to the best of my knowledge i don't think the president said anything to putin about it joe got 3 and a half 1000000 dollars from russia and it came through putin because he was very friendly

with the former mayor of moscow and it was the mayor of moscow's wife and you've got 3 and a half $1000000.00 your family got 3 and a half $1000000.00 and you know someday you don't have to explain why did you get 3 to have i never got any money from where because there has been nobody tougher to russia with between the sanctions nobody tougher than me and russia between the sanctions between all of what i've done with nato you know i've got the nato countries to put up an extra $130000000000.00 going to $420000000000.00 a year that stood against russia while the 2 also clashed over the u.s. relationship with north korea biden says he would meet kim gentleman but only if he promises to reduce his nuclear capability north korea is a problem and we're going to continue to do it so we can control them we're going to make sure we can control them and make sure they can not hurt us and so if you want to do something about it step up and help if not it's going to continue what

has he done he's legitimize north korea he's talked about his good buddy who's a thug a thug and he talks about how we're better off and they are have much more capable missiles able to reach us territory much more easily than ever to be flown. he indicated we would be in a war with north korea guess what it would be a nuclear war and he does have plenty of nuclear capability in the meantime i have a very good relationship with a different kind of a guy but he probably thinks the same thing about me we have a different kind of relationship we have a very good relationship and there's no war and you know about 2 months ago he broke into a certain area they said oh there's going to be trouble or such no then because he's not going to do that and i was right look instead of being in a war where millions of people soul you know is 25 miles away millions and millions 32000000 people and still millions of people would be ok right now president we don't have is not even that a good thing i should you know white house correspondent kimberly how it is in

nashville she has more on how the count that it's performed they both support some points they both made some mistakes and i think the winner from that and from the substantive discussion is the american public that really didn't get to see much any sort of policy discussion in that 1st presidential debate all they saw was a lot of what they don't like about washington that is fighting partisan fighting bickering in dysfunction so this was an opportunity is both men laid out their closing arguments to really make a case that i think what american voters got was a clearer sense of what each man would do should they become president in the case of a real action and there was there was sort of measured discussions and what this did was give the undecided voter of which there are many in the united states the opportunity to know where each man stands on our bridey of different issues that

are making headlines right now barbara perry is the director of presidential studies at the university of virginia center she says biden didn't capitalize fully on some of trump's comments. things have obviously not been going well in employment for african-americans in this country certainly since the code epidemic hit so that's one issue and for the president to tell these tall tales that he's the least racist person in that room of 200 or so people and that he's the greatest president for half an american since abraham lincoln i do wonder why rice president biden didn't say could we talk a little bit about a fellow democrat lyndon johnson and the civil rights act of $64.00 on the voting rights act of $65.00 i do wish he would bring those things up but it was also one of those unfortunate misspeaks for vice president biden he mentioned the poor boys that's a sandwich in the united states instead of the crowd noise but i think most people and really want communities of color know that there is systemic racism in the

united states and they they won't be persuaded most of them by the president's words tonight but assoon as someone says the s word and by that we need socialism so it's a little bit like in the 1950 s. and this country calling someone a communist or their policies communistic i guess that does scare americans except for the fact that that is what republicans and conservatives called social security in the 1930 s. when it passed under franklin roosevelt and that is what republicans and conservatives call what came to be known as medicare when it passed in 1965 also under lyndon johnson and so i do again wish sometimes that joe biden and democrats would look back a little bit in history and say who would give up their social security benefits now who would give up their medicare now remember republicans and conservatives call that socialism and the other thing about the president saying oh yes we're going to have a he uses that strange term beautiful beautiful health care plan he has been saying

that for 4 years and there has not been repeal and replacement by his plan of obamacare and with his supreme court nomination of a macone bear and it's very clear that within a few months it's possible that all of obamacare will. the united states has imposed sanctions on 5 iranian groups accusing them of attempting to interfere in next month's election on wednesday u.s. intelligence agency said iran and russia had obtained information on the us voters they accuse them of trying to influence public opinion on the sanctions applied to iran's revolutionary guard and t.v. and media companies like a u.s. drone strike targeting al qaeda leaders in syria has killed 14 members of the group they were hit near that syria's last rebel held province the united states army says the strike on al qaeda fighters hit them while they were meeting for dinner a roadside bomb has killed a senior cleric in the syrian capital it happened in the town of qusayr near

sovereignty security and development interest is undermined will never allow anyone or any force to invade or separate land and when such thing occurs to chinese people you'll meet the challenge head on. adrian brown has been following the story from hong kong he says the speech was a deliberate show of strength from china's leader i think the message that president xi jinping was sending out on friday was essentially this china resisted u.s. aggression 70 years ago and it's quite prepared to resist u.s. aggression today whether it be on the trade front or over taiwan or hong kong and also what's important was the context in the setting of what the president had to say on friday because he delivered his speech in the great hall of the people and that's where all important speeches by chinese leaders are delivered amongst those
