7:02 pm
the u.s. would never recognize the international criminal court trump also accused iran of sowing mayhem in the middle east and said all nations must work to stop iran from being able to develop nuclear weapons the u.s. president slammed conditions in venezuela under that country's socialist government he also demanded that global trade become fair towards the u.s. and warned that in the future washington would only get foreign aid to friendly nations. all right let's go over to our correspondent alexander phenomena who has been listening in to president trump speech at the united nations in new york alexander and not your usual run of the mill type of a speech that we heard from president trump let's play at the beginning of that speech. in less than two years my administration has accomplished more than almost any administration in the history of our country.
7:03 pm
america so true i. didn't expect the reaction but that's. all right some slight note of her relief there the u.n. general assembly bursting out in laughter quite remarkable on a serious note though how did his speech go down. well i think that it was quite unusual for the international audience here to listen to this opening and it was quite an unusual way to start a speech on the international stage with remarks like these. ones personal economic accomplishments for us reporters who cover the white house however i have to say that that's not unusual that's what we see on
7:04 pm
a daily basis that the president uses every occasion to talk about peace accomplishments but all did see it obviously on the usual therefore we so that it is opening remarks were met with laughter and alexander on the north korea which was so the focus of his speech last year he referred to the leader of that country as rocket man on a suicide mission this year he addressed him as honorable friend quite a change within just a year at least of rhetoric. yes indeed you're right last year i was here reporting on the president for us a speech and as you said he called can jump you in a rocket man on a suicide mission and now he is describing him as the honorable man so what it's. change was a shift from strands to flattery and we have to say that there is fresh hope that
7:05 pm
progress is being made in talks with north korea because the country has plants to dismantle one of its missile test sites and he's a major nuclear side however we also have to say that we haven't seen yet any evidence that the north korean regime is really committed to complete the new clothes they should. but then of course no warming of relations with four were on. yes and i would even say that president strom doubled down on iran accusing is it's of. accusing the iranian regime of sowing death destruction and care but he also made a very clear distinction in his speech and distinction between the randian regime and the ukrainian people he called upon all the nations out there to here to support speed iranian people so that seems to be a strategy here of course many critics of the trump administration will say that
7:06 pm
its goal is to bring about a regime change in iran but that is something that it's one of the nation has strongly deny it and alexander in the closing of president trumps america first policy there at the heart of his address at the u.n. who was the intended audience. well i think at the end this case he was addressing very clearly the american people and most of all his supporters as we know we are only a few weeks away from very important midterm elections in which the democrats are in the lead according to the latest polls so they have a good chance to win back the house and that is of course something that donald trump doesn't want to see and therefore he was addressing his domestic audience reassuring his supporters that he is sticking to his america first policy and that

election. all right let's get you more on these developments of that want to turn now to chief political correspondent melinda a crane melinda german chancellor angela merkel's main ally in the bundestag voted out of office unexpectedly why. because of rising dissatisfaction with in her party dissatisfaction about the first six months of this grand coalition in which we've seen repeated political crisis in which we've seen rising divisions within the conservative bloc in which we have also seen falling poll numbers for the conservatives by the way for the social democrats as well both coalition parties at this point would no longer get a majority if elections were to be held tomorrow tomorrow and ultimately rising dissatisfaction with the leadership of the chancellor herself that is what this vote means if you just look at the symbolism this parliamentary leader who was
7:10 pm
voted out today folk are cowed or is a very very close ally of the chancellor he's been in his position exactly as long as she has been chancellor this was the first contested election for the head of the conservative policy group and parliamentary group since one nine hundred seventy three so it amounts to a real earthquake within the party and i think for that reason certainly to be taken very very seriously as a sign of. a coming rebellion of the party itself how precarious is her situation currently. well she herself said this is democracy you win some and you lose some she has just been speaking to the press and she said yes this is a defeat but i can imagine working well together with mr brink house but what you need to know is that she had given a passionate speech during this meeting of the parliamentary group saying that she
7:11 pm
absolutely supports. that she wanted him to remain in his position and that this is not the time for a change and we saw hundred twenty five members of the parliamentary bloc saying no you're wrong it is time for a change and then of course one house to ask. how does that change look going forward we know that mr breakouts the new incoming leader has said that he wants in more confident servitor parliamentary group meaning confident both toward voters but also confident visibly the government itself so i think we are likely to see a real challenge to her authority in the future are right now in the crane thank you so much for your continued coverage. now rush hour in china's capital beijing used to mean streets crammed with bicycles but the nation's spectacular economic growth in the past three decades has seen people swap two wheels for forts and that
