that they'd receive diplomatic assurances he could serve any jail sentence in australia as well. and now the judges here have said that those assurances basically override the other arguments. and so as it stands, the case is now being sent back to the lower court. what happens is basically that ultimately this will go to the home secretary to push forward the extradition process. but there's also the possibility that julian assigns can appeal this decision to the supreme court, the highest court here in the united kingdom. it's taken years to get here, and we still don't know exactly what's going to happen for the time. being julian assange who followed these proceedings via video link from bell much prison in south london, is back in prison. we know that he's been given permission to marry his partner

called for other democratic countries to expand their engagement with taiwan. after nicaraguans government decided to cut diplomatic ties with the island nation, the chinese foreign ministry welcome to the move in a statement and praise nicaragua, his commitment to the communist parties, one china policy, taiwan expressed pain and regret at the decision. only 14 countries in the world recognized i one as a country that wants president has responded vowing to safeguard democracy in your data organ. got the more successful taiwanda democracy and the greater the international support than the greater the pressure from the authoritarian camp. whether it's diplomatic pressure or military intimidation, we will not change our determination to we're dear to democracy and freedom to go on the international stage and to participate in the international democratic community. brian, here is the founder of new blue magazine and a writer for the diplomat. he downplayed nicaragua, move and says taiwan,

unofficial ally, such as the u. s. hold more weight. so the time in spite interesting because of the summit for democracy that it could be in by the, by the ministration town and invited despite not being a member of the us. and so this is a sign of the us strength of amendments towards taiwan. ivr, china has reacted quite angrily to that it is not invited. and so this is included hang back at the us. i'll think of this show that it is not actually final anything significant, but the same time when you see this with no progress breaking relationships, i want at this time if it does seem rather suspicious. so what is interesting, i think, is how this will play out domestically in that the approach china opposition, the k m t will use us to attack the ruling tide ministration. and so the diplomatic allies that towel on has are smaller than it in terms of the size of a population or economy. they're probably a role is to speak up or taiwan in international relations from which it is excluded. and if occurred with nicaragua as recently as september, so it does somewhat of

a surprise that there is the switch now over in terms of the substantive impact does not have a lot of impact on taiwan directly in that way. china would like to see how long have fewer and fewer for our lives. and in this way is a way to diplomatically humiliate taiwan on the world stage at a time in which there is increasing support from taiwan internationally. whether that be from the us, from european union countries or a cetera. and so this is a way to work against the trent. and so this is a way to attack the administration that is currently in our potentially affect elections. because sometimes how many is do perceive the stinking of international space when they do lose the amount of allies over in most cases, how on an official ties with other countries such as what the us food does not actually have formulation that taiwan are more important than d is different allies who do not actually do much except the speak up for taiwan once in awhile. and these were joshua organizations. but i think china was trying to continue with an activity. u. s. president joe biden has reaffirmed his commitment to ukraine's sovereignty and

a phone call with president lat uminski. the ukrainian leader says the pair also discussed possible options for ending the conflict in easton ukraine. when they spoke on thursday. it follows tuesdays virtual summit between president biden and russian president vladimir putin by the us warned of heavy sanctions. if russia invades ukraine pretty by dish, give that honor now with the support of nato countries. ukraine is being pumped full of weapons and kia is building up its contingent on the line of contact in don bass. the number of sci fi violations which have happened since it was signed. and july 2020 is coming close 290000. the spatial monitoring mission to ukraine has registered the re deployment of heavy weapons, including high caliber artillery and armored vehicles to the east of the country with, without accounts being disputed by the white house. it places the blame squarely on russia. the russians are known for their rhetorical escalations, as they are also known for their ah, ways of providing misinformation around the world are and within eastern flank

countries. so i think we have to take their own efforts to communicate to their public with a grain of salt. what we know is that, oh, the aggression here is on the russian side. the military buildup is on the russian side. there is a path, a diplomatic path forward. oh, the part of the president's object of our president's objective and having the call was to convey that clearly that certainly is our preference. but also to convey clearly that there would be consequences. they would be significant and severe and we're going to coordinate with our european partners on that. charles rafa has more from cason in southern ukraine. well, presidents and hence gay's office has put out some statements about the contents of that conversation. i'll read out some of the salient points to you that being said, according to lindsey's office, during that conversation, that was said that the u. s. has decided to become an active participant in the settlement process in dawn by us in parallel with the normandy format. now this is

interesting because normally for math that is made up of france, germany, russia, and ukraine has by all accounts. according to most stanley's been and on l. tracy failure since it was initiated 7 years ago. so, and a lot of analysts have been trying to, trying to, to, to, to, to force the point that is absolutely vital to get the us a bigger role in, in trying to forge a lasting piece piece process and settlement to this conflict. so that's very interesting that there seems to be certainly some sort of agreement that there will be an increase role for the us in this office. also saying that the decision on ukraine's sentient and nato depends on the decision of ukraine and nato members . that's what biden said in that conversation was zalinski. obviously, this may not go down very well. it's whole with moscow. we know that obviously,

nato nato membership for ukraine is one of the main big red lines for moscow. the white house saying that biden supports the aspiration of ukraine to be a nato member, and says that the aggression is on russia's side regarding ukraine. it's going to be very interesting to see what kind of response comes from moscow. in the coming hours and days. the international criminal court has opened an investigation into the venezuelan government handling gold opposition protest in 2017. more than $100.00 people were killed during months of unrest. the 1st time the icpc has launch an inquiry against the south american nation. there is a boat report from coca a thing of calling you. it's been for years since he read an aussie baron i lead this son was killed during protesting venezuela. one bowel was

feel like we've been without a trial at the international criminal court includes the possibility of a detention order, something the other reports do not have. and the fact that it's a shame to be the only latin american government to be tried at the i c. c, the whole alley daniels, he's trying to assist a victims in their search for justice. that gives it buffer i with the actual elementary thought. in fact that there is an official investigation is historic. it never happened. india america's. we have to consider that before there was a case in honduras and columbia, and this is the 1st time there was an investigation. the government says the crime should be investigated and tried in the country. it also says abuses are being committed by the united states and other countries against venezuela, through economic sanctions. but victim say, the violations committed against government critics are brutal and should be punished in an international court that he said, well, i'll just cedar carrack us. donald trump, herself at another,

said back to his attempts to block the release of official records of the capitol hill riots last january. a federal appeals court rejected his plea to keep documents and phone records secret because of presidential privilege. johnson expected to appeal to the supreme court to stop the documents being handed over to a panel of politicians who are reviewing whether he incited the storming of congress. libya electro commission has yet to announce the final list of candidates less than 2 weeks out from the presidential election. and advisory council is called for the vote to be delayed until february with growing differences of a voting regulations. the poll is seen as a key step to ending a decade of instability. farm, as in india, have officially ended a year long protest after the government abandoned agricultural reforms. protest is said the laws that would have seen them lose the right to have a guaranteed minimum price. they produce criminal charges against a protest. this will also be dropped based on the pharmacy,

a tree between communities and the fee for the kind of centralizing for us to be concentrating, our needs to be and depriving of of their right. so i think it success is something that people in india and across the continent and around the world are celebrating because it opens up new possibilities for different future governments are invincible until they're not. so movie has kind of built up an image as somebody who never backtrack. somebody who wants to make a decision final. and what we've seen over the years long protest through the bitter cold, through the blistering summer, with all sorts of efforts to is credit and be legitimize. this protest is that people when organized and determine can challenge authoritarian governments and can succeed. the u. s. has expanded, it's covered 19 booster campaign, offering jobs to 16 and 17 year olds. move close the way for millions of teenagers
