palestinian conflict. israel long ago declared jerusalem as its eternal capital but the rest of the world never recognized the move and to date no major countries have an embassy in the ancient city donald trump's decision would change that and could have an explosive effect on the region not least because the palestinians insist that east jerusalem must be their capital if a two state solution to the israeli palestinian conflict is to become a reality. and. the position of. the vatican and if. this is going to move. this is again. this is this would be acceptable. if this. would complicate things. maybe it would be the end

of the peace process other leaders promptly echoed that warning. mr truck drew is the red line for muslims in cairo the head of the arab league said moving the u.s. embassy would be an unnecessary provocation to the arab world the kings of saudi arabia and jordan both criticize the move as did iraqi prime minister i dare a body that. had better be sure the iraqi government warns of the consequences of this decision on the stability of the area and of the world it ignores the rights of palestinians and arabs and muslims alike. what. the united states appears to recognize that trumps announcement may trigger unrest in the mideast the state department has ordered its consulate personnel in israel not to conduct personal travel in jerusalem's old city or the west bank. earlier we

spoke to did he is correspondent in washington and for nominee he gave us some of the background behind the trump administration's new basically all presidents and bill clinton have been kicking this can down the road every six months because twenty two years ago the u.s. congress passed a law the jerusalem embassy act which says that jerusalem is the capital of israel and that the u.s. embassy should move there now that law gives the president of united states the chance to postpone the implementation of that law by a six months at a time if it is in the national interest of the security of the united states and that has happened again and again bill clinton and george w. bush and then barack obama have all postponed the implementation of this again and again donald trump also did it one in the summer this year but only grudgingly

after he was. supported in this by his advisors and allies of the united states but now he seems to have changed his mind it could be that he declares he wants to the embassy in jerusalem but still postponed the move for six months so legally not much would change but it would still be a game changer politically and diplomatically let's bring in our correspondent in jerusalem tanya kramer standing by for us hi tania in our report a little earlier that we heard the palestinian authority saying that this move could see the end of the peace process how damaging could this really be for that process. well i think first of all you have to say there is no real peace process at the moment has been staggering for years and for months but there is the assumption that some kind of push for peace is being currently discussed by own a middle east peace a majority cush know his team was here on the ground for many months but it's not

it clear where this peace plan will go nobody knows anything about of the details and i've known the palestinians and as you said also as we've been hearing in the report and other leaders have met mary clear that you know this announced move by the u.s. president to basically kill or could potentially kill any attempt to push for new talks this was a good many leaders here also in the arab world and now time has apparently decided to go it alone to reimburse longstanding u.s. policy and ignore those warnings but i think it's also important. to wait and see and he will make a give a statement it's expected to give a statement later today what he will actually say how we really were to his statement and if you will leave some kind of opportunity. for the palestinians to claim their idea and or their aim to have a their own capital in east jerusalem tenure the actual process of moving the

embassy could actually take years that could we see a reversal of this decision of the future. i mean but from what we understand this came out of the white house last night that this thing that might. take two or three years i mean that is it was consulate on the western side of town and western reserve and but from what we understand they might build a new a consulate so this will take years and we also understand that's why according to the white house they will have to sign a raise of just again but you know if they reverse it i mean as a third in this provision in this manner of nine to ninety five that my colleague talked about if it's in the national. interest of national security interest of us i mean whether they will change or get it again or not dr we don't know because at the moment it's not quite clear what mr trump has mine what you will do next and how this will play out. cramer speaking to us

a little bit earlier now at some other stories making news around the world british police have reportedly for oiled and allege a plot to assassinate the country's prime minister theresa may the extremist islamist plot is understood to have involved a bomb attack on the prime minister's residence two men arrested last week have been charged with plans to carry out terrorism security officials believe it is the ninth plot that police have thwarted this year a state of emergency has been declared in southern california where firefighters are battling severe wildfires these pictures you're seeing are from ventura county just north of los angeles where thousands have fled their homes nobody is believed to have died in the fires but local media report that one person was killed in a car crash while fleeing the area hundreds of nigerians were flown home from libya on tuesday as the u.n. stepped up efforts to fly migrants out of the country the move follows an outcry over reports that migrants there were hoping to get to europe are instead being sold into slavery it is estimated more than four hundred thousand african migrants

are stranded inside libyan detention camps. and the international olympic committee has banned russia from competing in the two thousand and eighteen winter olympics some clean athletes however will be able to compete as neutrals under strict conditions what just ten weeks to go before the games begin in south korea the i.o.c. said there was enough evidence of state sponsored doping to justify the back. after poring over several reports detailing evidence of systematic doping in russia the i.o.c. is executive board finally came to a conclusion on the countries in the big future thomas but the i.o.c. president made the announcement to the russian olympic committee is suspended with immediate effect individual clean russian obsoletes will be able to participate under strict conditions at the olympic winter games you have

a chance two thousand and eighteen. these in righted astley will participate be it in individual or team competitions under the name olympic athlete from russia with the acronym. seen such as these from the sochi winter games in twenty fourteen will not be repeated in pyongyang by refusing to allow a russian flag a national anthem at the twenty eighteen games the i.o.c. has gone beyond any previous doping sanctions it's also handed a lifelong binds to russian officials including vitaly moat co the former sports minister and current deputy prime minister of russia. no official of the russian ministry of sport will be accredited for the olympic winter games two thousand and eighteen.

then deputy minister you're even going nick will be excluded from any poll from any participation in all future olympic games although tuesday's decision is far from the complete ban many had hoped for it does show that the i.o.c. will stand up to russia whether it means an end to this doping scandal depends on how russia reacts to the decision. earlier i asked a correspondent in moscow emily sure when how the kremlin has reacted while there's been no real official reaction yet president putin is expected to speak today and another public event and he probably will comment there earlier he said that competing under. a neutral fly would be a humiliation for russia so it'll be interesting to see what he says now if he does comment but many officials and politicians have already commented the opinions there have been rather divided on the one hand people are saying this is

a humiliation for russia and on the other hand people are saying you know at least people are clean athletes will be allowed to take part and people are pointing out that in fact they will be under be able to compete under the name of you know olympic athletes from russia so there will be some indication of where they're from so apparently a decision about whether and in what form russian athletes will will be taking part from the russian side will be made on the twelfth of december by the russian olympic committee but of course it'll be interesting to see what putin has to say today if he does comment. did over used emily sure win in moscow there to sports in this week's the final round of the champions league group stage the best place teams of all eight groups move on to the knockout stage manchester united you ventus roma and basel all went through with victories on tuesday evening but i'd let it go much for it who reached the champions league final in two thousand and fourteen and two thousand and sixteen are out after drawing with chelsea in group
