5:05 pm
now. well there live this is a very moving story of the focus today very much is on this continued effort by the democrats to push forward with their impeachment inquiry we heard from the speaker nancy pelosi and she had some very strong statements to make and she was referring to she said there was a sense of urgency in many respects in there they should try and wrap up their investigation by thanksgiving which of course is the end of november and she focused once again we heard it in the report there the cover up of the cover up she also had words to say about the president saying it goes beyond irresponsible but of course and they will decide the republicans have been scrambling to 'd say you know at this point inquiry is baseless and we've also been hearing from many you know members within the republican party and of course president trump who have
5:06 pm
essentially been trying to this is gratis the people at the center of these allegations now in a not public what is the case that democrats are trying to make. ok i'll try to break it down for you later because this is it's a big story with many elements to it essentially what the democrats are looking at is that president roh beleaguered he was seeking foreign help from in that conversation from the ukrainian president selenski he was also accused of using military aid is a bargaining tool with regards to the aid which the democrats are claiming he withheld in order for him. asking for a favor from president selenski and also with regards to how long it took for the complaint made by the whistleblower there focusing also on that why did it take so long and they're investigating that at length and you know they've been saying that you know focusing as well on the fact that you know it was a serious of flagrant abuse and violation of the law by president trump that's what
5:07 pm
the democrats are saying at the moment so what comes next what can we expect well like i said i mean the democrats are pushing forward they want this to take place swiftly this investigation nancy pelosi has also been saying that she would she's been she has been giving away too much but media here is reporting that behind closed doors 'd she says she wants this investigation to ruffle pretty quickly in the next couple of months up most so that it doesn't lose momentum and also they've been saying within the democrats you know the best way to deal with this is that it doesn't sort of take center stage considering that next year the presidential race is going to be in full swing and they don't want this dominating it. at all next year so essentially wrap it up as quickly as possible they don't want this to be a long drawn out process meanwhile pablo prison donald trump has pushed back how is
5:08 pm

5:15 pm
spaces in new zealand they've been joined by parents and grandparents in what's being billed as the country's 1st intergenerational strike of protests were also underway in south korea were hundreds of students boycott at their classes and rallied in the capital seoul to demand that world leaders take immediate action on climate change. and we stay with the topic of the environment because russia ranks as the world's 4th biggest polluter but last week's a huge climate change for just worldwide we're not match there only a few 100 demonstrators took to the streets in a handful of cities in the capital moscow one protester has been going out alone a reporter emily share when went to meet her. my he may be part of a global movement but in russia he's often on his own a shock my kid has been making his solo stands for climate awareness every friday since march his sign reads strike for climate the 25 year old wants more people to

5:17 pm
that's the same thing it's hard for me to understand when you will know people didn't used to be worried about an environmental issues but the new generation is more conscious and they want their children to grow up in a cleaner place. for the environment so that the planet doesn't drilling and garbage. every day issues like trash management have made more people concerned about the environment in russia even outside the capital there have been large protests across the country against garbage dumps including near the northern city of. russian president vladimir putin has recently changed his rhetoric on climate change and finally signed the paris agreement to limit global warming. you know that's when it comes to the environment of the climate things keep getting worse if we don't do anything then fast paced technological development will only intensify the whole range of environmental challenges we're facing including climate change in the depletion of natural
5:18 pm
resources. had a shock once more than just words from the russian government for global climate action week he has helped organize demonstrations around russia a handful of young people are taking turns striking in moscow thinks even small protests are worth it yeah. i know. now that i'm fighting for my future as well for example what's the point of having children if it's not clear what the state of the planet will be and the nature around disease being destroyed if we don't fight now we won't have a future we don't have a choice shock is convinced that the tide is turning in russia but until others join him he plans to keep up his lone protests for the planet. and staying with russia the country has been under international sanctions for 5 years but are they working the exiled dissidents and former all of our committee how hard a cough ski offers a perspective because 20 years ago he was the head of the oil giant you costs and

5:20 pm
self-confidence of civil society spread across the country and people will start to ask questions about not only how much there are but also about how the state is treating them if you could to speak dangerous for the regime leaders and. yeah. sure from 2014 until 2018 russian authorities have been living on credit. a credit. from the crimean onix ation but now it's over it's clear to me that the government is staying in power. but any critical event which is normal for any state could be dangerous for the government. it's. a parson just. the fact the western sanctions haven't russia.
5:21 pm
i mean. you know they influence the economic situation of the country no doubt and no doubt they influence the economic situation of russian society but they're relatively soft compared to the economic situation during soviet times. suppressing the technological development of the country. and the fact that government cannot solve the problem provokes tension in russian society. and then the pressure. to come back to russia. of took my mint yes my at the same time that i'll be able to talk about my criminal case as we will which started off to my extradition from russia with that with the normal and independent courts. scrutiny of i'm using some sort of. pakistan's prime minister in

5:24 pm
kind of got the kind of support from the us and trump that india desperately needed to destroy him and it leaves very little room for prime the circle to do maneuver india is a big. financial sources international community and listens to india more so grown this recon has a very difficult task at hand and the us beach is probably you know get drink to the domestic audience in my camera and well as you're reporting we're seeing at pictures of him on han addressing the u.n. general assembly what does mr han expect to achieve with his speech to the world leaders at the united nations because as you've outlined it is it's a p.r. exercise as well one that is very difficult for pakistan. it is a p.r. exercise the con has been doing for the past 5 or 6 days it has not yielded
5:25 pm
much result diplomatically we see that the international community has sided with india and the international community including the us they don't want to do want to a pakistani expects from our leaders so right now when he's is speaking to the world leaders as i said earlier i believe it's more for his supporters for his voters for the people in pakistan to see their due to convey to them that he has been leading the case of kashmir but i see very little impact. thank you so much for weighing greatly appreciate it thanks very much for having me . this is deja vu news these are top stories u.s. president donald trump has a lashed out at the democrats and democrats impeachment inquiry describing it as a disgrace it comes after the acting intelligence chief joseph mcguire testified to
