former preston, donald trump, will appear in court next week to face criminal charges. his lawyer vows to very aggressively challenge the legality of the case when a prosecutor couldn't use the law and the system to go west or political opponent. it's something that frightens me. ah, i'm a bug. this is al jazeera live from london, also coming up, the president of valerie says, russia can position long range nuclear weapons in his country while also calling for a cease fire in new crane plus. and the data breach that seen italy temporarily block the open source a i system chat g p t ah former pos, an donald trump will appear in
1:02 am
a new york court on tuesday. the 1st former president to face criminal charges the case against him involves a hush money payment to adult film star stormy daniels ahead of the 2016 election. trump who was formerly indicted on thursday, as expected to plead not guilty to the charges. it's expected that trump will voluntarily surrender, meaning he won't be arrested. will be processed as a defendant, meaning he'll be fingerprinted and have mug shots taken trumps. expected to appear in person for his arraignment on choose day. next week, you'll have the charges against him reading court center. please then be released with another court date. he won't have to post bail legal experts say he's still at least a year away from actually going to trial. meaning he could be in court during the 2024 presidential election. the u. s. doesn't bar people from running for office over legal cases. so trump will be allowed to stand. is also facing multiple other investigations by the justice department, district attorneys in manhattan and georgia. and
1:03 am
a new york attorney general as possible. we'll end up in court again in one of those cases. gabe alondo has more from new york. this is really going to be historic and unprecedented. and a lot of times that word unprecedented is over used. it really isn't when it comes to this situation, never before, as we've said before, and we'll continue to say over the coming days as a former or current us president ever in us history based criminal charges. while that has now all changed with his indictment against donald trump, i want to unpack this indictment just a little bit more. it is about this hush money payment, allegedly paid to this ex adult film star that trump had an affair with. he denies that she doesn't deny that at all, but that in of itself and paying her $130000.00 to keep quiet isn't necessarily a crime what the district attorney was investigating here. and what the grand jury
1:04 am
indicted trump on was. how that money was paid to her, allegedly it is, and they have been investigating. if trump, in the course of paying that money through an intermediary, if he falsified a business records, which would be a crime here in new york, but also even more seriously. if he intentionally misled in order to cover up another crime, which could be a campaign, a violation of campaign finance law. so it's not just about the alleged affair or the hush money payment now trumpet, denies all wrong doing whatsoever. his lawyer said that they will vigorously fight this in court and in the court of public opinion as well. listen to what one of trumps lawyers had to say. this is a historic case of monumental case cases that will have wide reaching ramifications
1:05 am
. and it really today, i feel very concerned about the rules on this country because it in danger, the rule of law, all americans, today's donald trump, tomorrow it's a democrat of the day after it, sir. and wrote your friend the day after that that you were me. and that's what concerns we when a prosecutor couldn't use the law and the system to go west or political opponent, it's something that frightens me. there are already sick secret service agents that were here last week, kind of scoping out the area in anticipation of a potential indictment. it's not only the secret service involved, but it's also the f b i as well as the new york police department, the biggest police department in the united states and the biggest in the world for any police department, by the way. and also the security personnel at the da's office behind me and at the court. incredible undertaking. whenever an ex president goes anywhere, there's a lot of security,
1:06 am
even an ex president because they have secret service. but in this situation where an ex president has to turn himself in to a court to the district attorney's office, it's just, there's so many an answered question, sir. will there be protests which trump has called for protests? would it be pro trump? protests, anti trump protest will they bring him in through an underground parking lot. so no one can see him. will he asked to go through the front door of the court and addressed the media as some have speculated. these are all of the security arrangements now for all of the eventualities that could unfold here on tuesday that are now being run through with security officials throughout new york to figure out how they will make this happen and make it happen safely. rome philip bowsky is a former federal prosecutor in the united states. he says, trump may find it difficult to stick to the bail conditions. i fully expect, given what we've seen so far, the judge to order him that if he's gonna remain out on pre trial release,
1:07 am
he cannot not try to attempt to harass, threaten or intimidate any of the witnesses, such as stormy daniels, michael cohen. any of the prosecutors, especially alvin brag or the judge. and that's going to be a pretty big mine field for him. not to be able to, to post on social media or to denigrate them and rally speeches. because that's his bread and butter. i would have said that the new york protest was going to be minor if anything at all, tracking them as i do i, i follow on social media, many of the rabble rousers in new york. but the announcement today of the georgia congresswoman green going there to spearhead this protest that's really energized the right on social media like i haven't really seen since prior to january 6th. so i think that she could draw a significant crowd and could bring in a number of people from outside the city of new york in there on tuesday. well,
