a u involvement. the united nations has welcome the development and said it is ready to support the a you with the process. the announcement coincides with ethiopia new year. the usa department is. busy called on e p o, p, as leaders to try and put the country back on a path of peace. rosalind jordan has more well, the u. s. has been very concerned about of the resumption of hostilities between the ethiopian military, the t p l. life of the rebels in the northern part of ethiopia has to gripe region and era t reinforce is coming across the border to basically amp up the violence. and so there has been a this a renewed concern. the special envoy for the horn of africa, michael hammer, has been in addis ababa since september 5th, meeting with officials. not just in the ethiopian government, but also with the leadership of the t p l f. the main rebel for saw in the northern part of ethiopia trying to lay the groundwork for some sort of piece talked. he's

also, i've been meeting with a you officials. the process is such that the u. s. wants to see. all parties lay down their arms and try to get into peace talks as quickly as possible. on sunday, the u. s. secretary of state antony blank and released a statement. i'm urging all parties to engage in peace talks, and you try to seize the opportunity. in the name of the ethiopian people try to basically restore stability, restore. com, and also deal with a growing humanitarian crisis. william laurence from the american university is a former u. s. diplomat in charge of u. s. african engagement. he says the ceasefire proposal is an important development. it's very significant. it's not an, it's not sufficient. it doesn't solve all the upstanding issues, but it does take one obstacle off the table and it's notable that they didn't agree to be a mediator. they agreed to the

a you. so that opens the door to any number of possibilities and one that's been proposed is that the a you mediate, but perhaps a team of officials and not the particular official to which the t p i left has been objecting. why they both sides have realized, you know, one way or another and leaving hardliners a little bit to the side to make this point that they can't win the big war. and so the only question is, you know, what gains do you make that both influenced the final lines of any agreements and influence the tenor of the negotiations. and i think the, the large mobilization to the north and to the south to great wasn't enough to, you know, lead that to grant to believe they were going to be defeated or that mckelly was going to be taken again or anything like that. but it was a concern, and i don't think they felt like they were gaining much on the battlefield as much as they could gained at this point. i'm going to go, she ation table. grants have been putting down preconditions,

addison rejecting those. but a lot of it has to do with the restoration of services. and of course the humanitarian corridors, which was the reason for the march truce in the 1st place. and you know, it would be whether or not that the precondition or not it be great if addis ababa could start making some can concession area marks and makes it moves in terms of humanitarian assistance and, and, and services to move things in the direction of a proper negotiations, a right wing alliance looked set to win the swedish election taking power from magdalena anderson, just 10 months into her reign as prime minister. it could give the far right sweden, democrats, a place in government for the 1st time, for race reports from stockholm. hey swedish prime minister magdalena on the shawn cast. so vote in stock home. her last contribution and a campaign to stop by right wing coalition taking power. i will always find is there other emotional to go voting and this is really an fantastic day for

democracy today. where every vote counts the exit polls suggested those votes would count in favor of and the sions left wing alliance. but as the count went on, the opposition led by oath krista, son of the moderate party, went into the lead herself. as on the sean tried to keep her supporters spirits up the social democrats giving a rapturous reception to that leda deployment of magdalena on the phone. but the conference has been away. i made increasingly foils and speeches from the right wing opposition. the most triumphant of all would come from jimmy orcus and leader of the sweden democrats, a pariah party, with 5 percent of the vote just a few elections ago. they now looked like topping 20 percent and overtaking their allies. the moderates as the 2nd biggest in sweden, their policies assented on battling sweden's record high levels of crime, linking it with the mass immigration of the past decade. but they've also succeeded

in reaching immigrant voters themselves. allen, ducky gemini, born in rwanda, has voted for orchestra in the selection you read all tossed up or you mckesson. i voted for the sweden democrats because they've been serious about migration politics, crime and gang shootings. i don't see them as racist. they prioritize sweden. i'm of immigrant background myself, i see sweden as my country and if i thought they were racist, i wouldn't vote for them yourself. but the policies extreme right routes are not easy to shake off. though may i get in the i saw them call the slay. they are founded on a nazi and racist ideology. i will absolutely not vote for the it's not even and christian, and i will not vote in a party that works with them. either be a thumb in a well christensen's willingness to work with the suite and democrats has brought a misstep closer to a part in sweden's next government. by the end of sunday, their coalition led by a $176.00 seats, $273.00. but final counting isn't due to finish until wednesday. since the pull

rece aldi's era stock, i ukraine's army says its armed forces are pushing further into the ne harkey region as it make significant gains in a counter offensive. since early september, their advance has been fast with ukraine taking back in day's ground that it took the russians months to control. that's the area you see and shaded light, orange there. keeps forces have entered the key towns of is ume and coupons, both located on real light advances have also been made by ukraine in the south near her san, but at a slower pace. ukraine has accused russia of attacking critical infrastructure in response to their counter offensive in the northeast triggering widespread blackouts across the country. ukrainian official say the strikes hit a thermal power station in harkey. the 2nd biggest city towns in the regions of the pro petrovic. don't yeske and so me have been affected. an estimated 9000000 people

over the summer. there was this war of attrition between the 2 sides and all of a sudden things turned i went, ukrainians got more weapons, found their western allies that gave them an edge. and all of a sudden they were able to hit the russians behind the defensive lines. and then push through the defensive lines. now, out the question many have is, what will happen next? what will the russians do? people don't expect that they would just pull down, having no planned, the russians are saying they're regrouping so suited a lot of questions up in the year. but if the ukrainians managed to hold their ground, this will certainly be a turn in this war. they have the momentum at the moment. now their challenge is to keep that momentum. franklin, which is a senior lecturer and military strategy and law at the university of portsmouth. he says the gains made by the ukrainians in recent days are significant. is this is

a strategic victory for you. questions of a similar significance? probably greater significance actually, dom that defeated to russia. here in march, a strategic a couple of reasons. first of all, it demonstrates highest levels in the international community, wavering international community in a doubting community. ukrainians kind of serious losses on the russians. it's a turning point in hunting or demonstrating ukrainian initiative. but it's also a demonstration of that acumen of their skills incumbent on bringing all the training out over the last few months. yes. all together now to take a far greater than the russians have taken since since april. it's very significant

and it demonstrates you're also a deception and it's an intelligent school and it's a remarkable display of russian and up to you as president joe biden has marked 21 years since the $911.00 attacks the deadliest attack on american soil in u. s. history, he took part in a reef laying ceremony at the pentagon, remembering the nearly 3000 people who died by them spoke of the recent killing of a man. and so why? the man who little farther after the death of osama bin laden in 2011, saying the threat of another attack in the us is never really because we will not rest. we'll never forget. we'll never give up. and now our harry can never again threatening the american people and 20 years at dr. dennis dan is over, but are committed to ready another attack united stages without ad our intelligence, the fans,

we begin in scotland where the coffin of queen elizabeth the 2nd has arrived in edinburgh after a more than 6 hour drive from balmoral castle where she passed away on thursday. well wishers queued up along the route for a final opportunity to pay their respects. for monday, she will lie at rest at saint giles cathedral and edinburgh before her casket is flown to london. allan fisher reports from edinburgh. the beginning of the final journey, the coffin of the late queen, carried by the gardens keepers of her ball moral estate, a place she loved the place. she died initially through the streets. she knew well past the stores and houses of the nearby village and out on to the main roads and the cities beyond. that is your son is unhappy. i received a faith from concise. it was an absolute pleasure to serve her majesty. i know she

will rob ross and am we held rob broaden? first to aberdeen in the northeast of scotland were local officials paid their respects. farmers and horse riders formed their own special gar devona. then on slowly to dundee and path heading for scotlands capital title. oh, it's the path. it's who has david, is it a whole life to say thank us. and i just felt that there's no way out of wanted to be here. 8 to came, i lost the space as the coffin, continued it, sad, slow procession. a reminder. the country is moving on. good. okay. the proclamation of the new king met by some disapproval in edinburgh. a reminder that while the crime passes automatically from the queen to her eldest son, the affection the country held for her does not. the cortege passed famous landmarks before arriving in edinburgh coats had gathered since just after dawn to

mark the arrival at hollywood palace, the monarch's official residence in scotland. the queen came home the journey from ball moral took 6 and a half hours, much longer than normal. but this was an opportunity for the people of scotland to share a collective moment of grief, of celebration and of history. her body will lie here in the throne room before being moved for a special service of thanksgiving at saint giles cathedral. the mourners led by her son, king charles the 3rd, and then the public will be given their chance to see their fair wells, to figure largely loved, widely respected, and no sadly missed by the people of scotland. island fisher, al jazeera, hollywood, palace, edinburgh. the prime minister of antigua and bar buddha says he will hold a referendum on the country becoming a republic. within 3 years, gaston brown made the remark after he signed

a document confirming king charles the 3rd as the country's new head of state. brown had also voice voiced his intention earlier this year. when queen elizabeth's youngest son, the earl of wessex, came for a visit. the country is one of 14 nations to have the british monarch as its head of state. chris mage, opera is a professor of history who specializes in colonialism and empire. he says, it is understandable that people will mourn the queen, but there are chapters in british colonial history we shouldn't forget. in discussing and talking about the glorification of the queen as we're seeing in her passing, what aren't you talking about now? that's kind of the question that i'm left with. specifically the violence that has been committed in the name of this queen really over the course of her whole rank. that's what really worries me that that story is not being told and it's not a media. there are many people in our world, and that's the majority of the world who understand at a family level, at national level. why inferior violence matters when we look at how the

colonization ended? yes, it ended in the time in which queen elizabeth came to the throne and the 1900 began the 915 when she came to the throne. we've been in a period of the colonization from the 1950s onwards, but during the same period, we've seen ongoing injustice. we've seen under the rule of queen elizabeth, we've seen the violence and the plunder and the massacres. that took place in malaya. in yemen and aiden in kenya, the mile uprising we've seen under development that has been made systemic in places like the caribbean and africa, and even south asia. and you know, in my own research, i just determined, i discovered that it took until 2015 for the british government to in fact stop paying its debt that it took out about a 100 years ago for slave owner. reparations. and this was being carried on again

in the name of the queen. so the pastor colonialism continues to live on today. and partly it's because we continue to tell the story of the empire and not appreciate the pain in the suffering and the plunder of those who have been colonized by that empire. that, that, that's something that we need to make some space for. i think chili's president is vowing to find out what happened to some 1200 people who disappeared during military rule. in the 19 seventy's and eighty's protests marked the 49th anniversary of the military coup by general august to penetrate. he stayed in power until 1990. our latin america editor lucio newman reports from santiago o. long before the attack on the twin towers in new york, there was another september 11th that made history. thousands of demonstrators marched past the presidential palace on the 49th anniversary of chilis, 1973,

who deter it, overthrew socialist president salvador allende, and ushered in 17 years of military dictatorship. that has left deep scars to this day. in front of the presidential palace, riot police used water cannon and tear gas to disperse protest, hers who threw stones and incendiary bombs and security forces. this was just the beginning. excuse for one hair. we've just been drenched by the warner cannon, but the market is continuing. it's moving at this hour towards the general cemetery to pay tribute to former president i in there. that's where he is buried. but we are expecting a lot more confrontations along the way. ah, while violin protest is clashed with police, scores of others paid their respects to the thousands who were executed or were detained and disappeared after the military coup led by general lago stopping oshea

a series of triumphs by the soviet union. first came sputnik, the 1st satellite in orbit. then the little dog leica the 1st earth creature in space. and then you are a gar, and the 1st man in space. the soviets were winning, and the u. s. was embarrassed. the soviet union was doing the things in space for the 1st time in the united states, and did not have operable mission schedule. i created a widespread feeling among the media and among public that at the united states some hours falling behind over. ready all this year spaced much a month after good gardens flight president john f. kennedy. committed the us to put a man on the moon by the end of the 19th sixty's, the following year in houston, he gave a speech that galvanized the country around a common purpose. here is to go to them own and if they can do the other thing,
