as successor. to a vote in the u.s. now brit democrats in the house of representatives have taken a major step in the efforts to impeach president donard from voting to proceed formally and publicly with their investigation the resolution sets out the ground rules lawmakers will use and believes the way for public hearings on brother trump misuse the power of his office. the weather on capitol hill couldn't have been more symbolic the vote in the house of representatives means an uncertain future to the trump presidency with 232 yes to 196 nays the democratic controlled house adopted a resolution allowing more transparency in the impeachment inquiry the vote came after a heated debate this is soviet style rules baby in the soviet union

you do things like this where only you make the rules there are no kings or queens in america that is what separates this country from so many other nations no one is above the law at the heart of the impeachment inquiry is president trump's july phone call with ukrainian president the lord emir zelinsky a whistleblower accuse trump of pressing ukraine to investigate against a political rival democrats see that as an act of abuse of power from now on there is no return for the democrats but the way forward is a risky one today's vote some are concerned that impeaching president trump might eventually backfire in excuse election those are some of the hopes of the republican party minority leader kevin mccarthy sees the inquiry as a partisan power battle they face doubt about the credibility of the whistleblower

and the motivation of the democrats ask me every single member of congress that now has a transcript of the phone call what is the impeachable offense so i'll make you this one promise. republicans believe in the constitution we believe in the rule of law and that's why we're standing here today. democrat congressman al green is an outspoken supporter of impeaching president trump he stresses the democrats have no other choice when it comes to impeachment and balance the power of the constitution protecting you know preserving the republic you have to put principle politics are you have to do that you do not allow your personal ambitions to become an impediment to protecting the country. the impeachment inquiry will now take place in the open despite the political risks involved in trying to remove

president trump from office the democrats clearly feel the time for caution is over . the german president has been marking the end of a year long celebration of german american friendship corps wounded bought together one different to get up front but this time my visit to the united states comes as a difficult time for us jaylen relations with tensions of the trade and defense spending. it was a glorious new england full welcome for the german president yes it's a tour of a park that commemorates the 18th century american revolutionary war was just one stop in a packed schedule right next president steinmeyer dropped by the former home turned museum of the founder of 5 high school photo copius where he was shown around by the granddaughter of the famous german architect emigrated to the united states and the 1930 minutes. in boston politics was on the agenda with the president

focusing on the positives of germany's relationship with the united states. the environment on the boundary is unheard of so with our presence here we want to show that despite the current big disagreements we are still working hard on our long standing relationship therefore we on besting in culture in science and off all in human relationships are going to go in dimension but soon and. so good to institute was behind the together initiatives in collaboration with germany's foreign office and the federation of german industries at a time when the political relationship between germany and the us has been fraught all 50 us states have hosted a number of different events to celebrate the 2 countries longstanding friendship. the media the media right to concentrate on peak politics so that's why sometimes people forget that the foundations on which all relationships stand is solid and

far reaching is something realized across the country come out. of the combined to top off the day president bush time i address the audience at the boston symphony hall where he stressed the need for germany and the u.s. to remain about together now and in the future. to south africa where more than 300 refugees and migrants have sought shelter in a church after police victim them from an encampment outside the un refugee office in cape town that what a few people were arrested for a time on wednesday for resisting police ordered us to leave the site the migrants are from different african countries and are demanding they be relocated by the un this is a reason rave of xenophobic violence and african refugees and migrants shows south africa is no longer safe for them. now they are now in a church and they have

a valid to stay there till a solution is fun. cleese said justice reporter cape town and the church where about 300 people are seeking shelter refugees you can see it is completely overcrowded so many people have the space it is not smelling very well of course of the stress levels very high the tensions are very high and people have experienced very terrible things on wednesday when there was a crackdown on their protests and the police was attacking them we just talked to sylvie one mother who was a witness of what happened and she actually got injured herself. i'm sorry i feel that thing because they had trades. because whether the thing is today is a 50 cent a 4 because in south africa because that's was done by the government. because that is a new money that i so wish my sister if a policeman can support him are the current there is no future for much in this

country i want to go out if you want to go anywhere as long as we are out of this country a place that we're going to be safe where we're going to feel that we've been victimized as a human being not like cockroaches or not like sheik because we're not going to be slaughtered every day if you think this is a really fine thank you there's no better place than home and then is because i was forced to leave my country i did not choose to come to something i did not wake up one day and say let me plan to go for only to south africa i was forced to leave my country and then to the u n c and this country knows that it's not peace yet but if there was a peace i did that but you could there's not peace that i told them to look for it this way i can have peace. outside the church as you can see a lot of people are gathering as well there is some south africans who are coming here to give foods help to bring diapers for the children who are trying to help because they. also embarrassed of what has happened one of the xenophobic attacks

in the past but also of the police brutality that everybody has witnessed yesterday and most people here don't really know what is going to happen next it is very unlikely that there were demands will be met because most of them want to be relocated to a 3rd country they don't want to go back to their home country because they say it is not safe but we have to recall that this 270000 refugees in south africa that's the official number it is likely that's even more and if this little group of people will be relocated to a 3rd country does likely that other people will be interested and also get this really cation offer right opposite the church there's a market for cheerios and most of the traders here our foreigners as well from african countries and many of them they don't agree that south africa is not a safe place for foreigners on my business but just to stop people here because the customers need to come inside now. this morning that it is.

because of those things it's not my business but. it's down even yesterday we didn't make it and today we didn't make anything of the protesters here are saying that they will be staying in this church as long as the church allows it and afterwards they will move to the streets to remain here until a solution is found. that was. reporting from cape town returning now to our top story german chancellor angela merkel is in the indian captain delhi where she's been talking to prime minister not in the mood the dabney's chief political editor and she joins me now on the line from the indian capital michelle and we heard earlier chancellor angela merkel encouraged india to do more for women's rights were there any other critical issues raised for example concern over india's increasingly nationalist policies or the situation in kashmir. or there was

no. word of criticism from the german chancellor as he was in the room in the press they've been there and remotely at the same time today there's a new paper interview with them foreman is kind of part of the government consultations his cabinet consultations between india and germany and the basic be restated pretty much what is the european concept is an internal matter but also appealing told by not to. the flames of the situation but towards the make sure that the people's individual by god is. rather modest criticism about the level with yet another statement from the german chancellor to come so for more things words to flock to leave the 2 countries a very keen to deepen and strengthen their relations to what extent is this a full nod from the us china trade dispute. well 1st of all if there is

no interest for germany the key for the whole of europe to be any such trade war take place because if there's one thing that germany because of privacy in course in the middle if there was a full blown trade for between china and the united states it's quite clear that it is seen as a potential of fairness if it's a country that according to many experts is under performing and he says potential and this is something that modi now voiced by his latest reelection victory wants to tackle to create a new india you says make it india is the slogan germany wants to have had will be at the core of that that if it can pushing for trade agreements between india and the european union for now they're reluctant to speak in the valley. we should have to finish covering the german chancellor angela merkel visits to india and talk to samson that intimacy thank you very much for this update from delhi.

after the tournament spread over 3 months england coach eddie jones will send his side out as clear favorites for the final against south africa we just want to imply the great thing for us is that we've done the preparation we know we've done the preparation we're ready for this occasion you know we have spent 4 years getting ready for this occasion so that's why the players can be relaxed can be relaxed because we now have done the work rugby can be a brutal business 2003 winners in the end have been forced to do it the hard way this time around and victory in your karma will therefore feel extra special according to one former player. if they were to. use it in the summer after the fall of anyone could. probably including new zealand's efforts for the last 8 years probably the best world cup. but south africa still have

a chance a team forged in the image of the rainbow nation have produced a series of doggy displays in japan. the springboks tilt at a 3rd world cup title has also been given a post by the return from injury of one of their top stars. always. go on the field. just being selfish i think. the stage is set for an intriguing final in one of the toughest schools on. the planets but only one team can reach their goal. and that report by mark mad is from dude obvious 49 joins me in the studio welcome our england beat or blacks from new zealand the defending champions have to be defeated brits in this final tomorrow maybe as easy as we think we'll give them a surprise last weekend they know another surprise could happen this weekend this

robi after role so they won't be taking anything for granted but yes england have been the team in form they have better players in south africa they should win the game but normally ruby world cup finals a very tight affairs might come down to want to keep here all day so they know they've still got a lot of work ahead of them and what you would be in the short in the meantime would be players managed to win because of course the cricket has won the cricket will go a few months ago so when the rupee woke up the cricket world cup in one year i made all these bricks bricks that chaos is pretty impressive from being the sportsman but will they go do it like is there any hope then for south africa given that england is in such good form but we have to remember that south africa did beat england for the world cup title back in 2007 indeed they did and the stats a kind of into the africa's favor because every time they've been in a world cup final they've won it well in the last 2 the free world cup finals they've been in so that gives south africa a bit of hope but yet i think even the most ardent south african rugby fan knows

that this team is nowhere near as good as the 2007 version of bryan habana tearing down the wing the best player in the tournament they've got to keep it tight said african can be a few points with an england coming to the end of the game maybe they can just nick it at the very end as they did against wales in the semifinal that south africa's best hope to try and win this trophy so south africa going that as underdogs what it means for the nation if they want to win this what cup title it would be massive for south africa i mean i think it's fair to say that ruby is the boss. sport in south africa that has brought the races together football is generally a sport for the blacks and cricket generally for the whites but ruby is different partly because of what nelson mandela did in 1905 when so that figure when the 1st world cup in south africa there was a white captain then francois pienaar there's a great photographs of him and mandela mandela wearing the springboks jersey a jersey that been the symbol of white south africa up until that point and not

lies of course in the film invictus well now south africa have their 1st male black captain so if he gets to lift the trophy tomorrow that will mean a massive thing for south africa is this is a guy see you because you see he's come from the time ships from a very humble background he was actually born a day before the apartheid laws were repealed in south africa in 1901 so according credible story from a fairy tale perspective maybe they could make a sequel to invictus then but actually if we're talking pure rugby and england is probably going to win but so many people in south africa are excited about this game the national broadcaster is going to show it to where the 1st game of the tournament is free to air so the whole can watch it and hope maybe against hope that they can do it you certainly got me very excited so i'm going to watch the final if i can. thank you so much. this is the news and these are our top stories german chancellor angela merkel is
