police are trying very hard friends. the scenario that happened last week when thousands were rioting and sitting across the ladder, after some protests and started throwing stones. and that's why your work police on horseback moved in to clear the area. ah, trinity is biggest political party urges protested to stay off the street. the call for talk to preserve a decade as democracy. ah . other kim developed this is their law from dover also coming up. what i witnessed inexperienced, on january 6th, 2021 was unlike anything i had ever seen. us police officers who were attacks

during january 6th, capital riots, testified before an investigation committee 1st person to be charged on the hong kong. strict national security law has been found guilty of inciting, secession, terrorism, 12000 years old, and almost untouched by humans. we look at the primeval peach for us that is seeking to preserve ah, unity is the biggest political party is calling for efforts to avoid civil rights civil rights after a day of upheaval. it's now urging supporters to stay off the streets and once a national dialogue of crisis, the country of powerful maybe union is now also calling on the president to establish a roadmap. it has accused kind of a crew for firing the prime minister and freezing parliament for 30 days or a burden mentally. has this report. happy bird gave

a avenue. in the heart of 2 nieces, diplomat, guerria has known the stage for protests and political change. and this week with no difference or security forces, lying the streets and the army, his setup, barricade locking people and politicians from accessing governments buildings. president kyle said sucked the prime minister of the prominence capital members and announce of fries and parliaments with 30 days when he says the decision was taken . after following the process laid out by the constitution. but the move was divided opinions. and i'm a local. if the people see that kind of said wants to become a dictator and work against the revolution, of course the people rise up against him and overthrow him so that you know no cause cause it is really a rescue operation because lately alternation have seen that the economic and social situation has deteriorated a lot under the government's policies,

the biggest political group, the another party is calling the president's move accrue, but says it's open and ready for dialog. we reject the unconstitutional announcements and we welcome all the rejections that have come from most of the political party as well as some of your . ready patients and we call in people to the com and vigilant and you ready to defend the democracy really, really, really must protest were held on sunday with many folks at the inactive party. a long struggle with cubic 19 and an economy in decline has become a perfect recipe for unrest. the then, on monday, a face off in tunis between those for and against the president. the same streets

were filled during the 2011 jasmine revolution that led with decades of democracy with the people now in power, a being accused of corruption and incompetence. and the president is accused of establishing an authoritarian governments. the many people here. so hard to read of a decade ago. for now, what is important is that the decision for all the political acts up to fit together, that we are no longer within to return and resume internees yet. but we're in democratic are you into an epic and has to happen within that democratic process and democratic framework for now to mrs. com. many don't know whether it's fragile democracy can be phased by dialogue or whether the streets will once again become a stage for nation demanding change. laur about a manly out there are around the shower is also there, a senior political analyst. he joins us now by skype from paris. 111 is likely to

happen next. the president has promised to protect the democratic past. all the checks in place to ensure that happens. well, it depends on what he has in mind. if he has the country's best interest in mind, you could assume that he's only doing this in order to shake the system and order to force the various politicians in the country and political parties to act more urgently in order to resolve the problems. if he has his own best interest in mind and wants to further empower the presidency and himself in order to take full control of the country, like for example, in neighboring egypt. but he has admired president cc, then he is looking for more of a dictatorship style gene. and that would mean that temporary meaning the month period will come 2 months, 3 months and more hoping that he will undermine democratic system in order

documented more power. and perhaps change the constitutions to fit his own whims. his record of the last couple of years show us that he's been criticizing demonizing, attacking every one and everything, the local parties, the local system, in order to advance he's on authorities. so if history is that it is any, is any proof, then we will see more of him accumulating more powers. if we can judge him to be well intentioned, then hopefully with more international pressure the political system will go back and be in order from what you're saying. it sounds like you think that this, this has been a long time coming. it's a long time coming and we've seen it in other parts of the world. the and i've been looking at the trumps phenomena and the united states and, and everything kind of show you there's been introduced the last couple of years

reminds me of donald trump, the way he demonized the tax, the way he does not take responsibility for anything. his populist instincts has shown me that at the right country he thinks he could win just like the trump thought he could win. and he does have a lot of support just like donald trump puddle. our support is a divided country just like the united states. why divide the country? what puzzled to me and all of this is why something like the bottom administration would not to take a position because that trump would not use the panoramic or could not use the pandemic and the economic crisis in the united states in order to shut down congress so why do you to be in capitals and on washington respect or accept that kind of does the same? and as you would say, this has been a long time coming and we've seen all the signs for that region president to be

acting the way he does. and that's why if it's not too late and hopefully it is not too late, he is young's and doing this is friend around the world must act fast in order to restore the constitutional democracy in the country. otherwise we are up to some major carriers. and ma'am, in tune, as i thank you very much for that model and the shower there, and you can find out much more about what morrow has to say on the vertical crisis internet on a website. and the address for that is al jazeera dot com. the january 6th attack on us capitol hill was a clear plan to disrupt democracy. police officers who worked day have been taking it in turns to testify in front of a select committee. they were living the verbal and physical abuse. they say they suffered during the insurrection. one describe the attack like a medieval battle, and said he feared he would die. the committee was set out by house speaking, nancy pelosi after efforts for

a bipartisan commission failed. former president donald trump was accused of inciting devices. one officer who was hospitalized after being attacked by the writers lashed out at republican lawmakers, accused of downplaying the attack on the capital. the indifference shown to my colleagues is disgraced by law enforcement. career prepared me to cope with some of the aspects of mixed experience. being an officer, you know, your life is at risk whenever you walk out the door, even if you don't expect otherwise, law abiding citizens to take up arms against you, but nothing truly. nothing is prepared. me to address those elected members of our government who continued to deny the events that day. 300 is live for us at capitol hill, john. so this is the 1st hearing of this special committee and it seems really some

emotional testimony. there's been a lot of anger and emotion over the past capital of ours. what we heard from is 4 police officers describing the attack on the u. s. capital in january 6. and the attack on them themselves. there was the iconic video that we've all seen of the war, one officer being crushed between 2 doors and he was beaten and then had his face master move. he talked about how afraid he was on that day. we had other officers talking about being blacked out. one officer said that he'd never been so afraid even as an army soldier in iraq. and he said at one point, he thought this is how i'm going to die. defending this capital entrance over and over, we heard the testimony and the, the emotion didn't just come from the 4 witnesses. it also came from the people who were asking the questions, including congressmen, adam kinsey,

or one of the 2 republicans who defied their party to participate in this process at the risk of losing their other positions in congress kinda broke down. and he, and he said, you guys for that day and you want democracy is not remembered for its failures. he said, but for its successes in the new you had to lose cheney the other republican on the panel who said that this was a cancer on the republican if it's not called to account. if the people responsible aren't called to account, then that would continue to happen every 4 years. and the officers were very careful to distribute people to the notion that there was anybody bought. trump supporters in that crowd, many publicans have suggested that there were n t for black lives matter. each of the officers detailed what these people looked like, the flags they held the fact that they were margaret flags and trump flags. and the fact that they were saying we want donald trump,

and that's important because it combats a notion many republicans have been talking about. it's important also to note that of the more than 500 people arrested. none of them has been associated with either an kiefer or black lives matter. so a lot of emotion and the officers trying to clarify exactly what happens and who did what john, as he said the attack was hugely devices the attack on capital hill. but even the formation of this very committee to investigation also became a partisan issue, didn't that's right. the republicans wanted this to go away and neither party wanted this to be the forum where they investigated what happened in january 6. originally, the democrats wanted a select an outside commission to look into it, just like the $911.00 commission did on that occasion. republicans voted that down . and so they formed this committee a select committee to look into this incident that has 2 republicans on it. they

are not supported by the rest of their party. the republican minority leader in the house, kevin mccarthy said this morning that this was a sham commission. that democrats would simply use it to make political hay. and he threatened to de mode the 2 republicans who were on the committee to strict them of their other committee position so that republicans definitely want this to go away . but that is not happening. and these officers have gone far to suggest that this really was an attack on democracy in to legitimize the inquiry so far, republicans will continue to try to do legitimize it. we'll see what happens over the coming days. thank you. john. henry, they're on capitol hill. the 1st person to be charged under hong kong that national security law has been found guilty wants being seen as a landmark ruling tongue in kit was convicted of inciting secession and terrorism of writing a motorcycle into a group of police officers and displaying

joe politics is at play. it's also doing it because their attention over taiwan and britain like the you and other major powers have an interest in not seeing that become an arm conflict. and so they have to demonstrate that their country is willing to stand up against the use of force against it. and i also feel it says that early signals of the biden administration that britain is a player, an ally, no longer trapped in europe, but able to act independently. the flotilla will sail through the south china sea, a large part of which china says, is its territory tonight, malaysia, the philippines, taiwan, and yet non contest that the u. s. which is not a claimant has consistently dismissed trying. his claim. regimes claim to the vast majority of the south china sea has no basis and international law that assertion treads on the sovereignty. other states in the region. we continue to support

the regions coastal states in upholding their rights under international law, a chinese government view, freedom of navigation operation, often conducted by the u. s. navy, as a provocation. in recent years, china has increased its military spending and grow more assertive in its claims over the south china sea entrance. i already have them seems to me when trying to begin island building activities in the south trying to see what i'm worried now is that we've the collection of so many military s as in this region. that's going to be the higher chance of miscalculation you call. recently announced a permanent be deployed to warships in asian waters after the flotilla, sales to japan. in september, the deployment is part of the british government tilt towards the endo pacific. much like the u. s. pivot to asia on the former us president brock obama. it's his
