the be. above. this news coming to live from but nature searches for unity in london after a deal divisions alliance leaders seek common ground at this 70th anniversary gathering agreement in one area that china presents new challenges for me till we get more from london also coming up. her. no

chance says donald trump despite a house report saying the evidence for impeachment is bobo's bad so what happens next. and the deaths also asserted k. pop star in 3 months spots an intense debate among the precious celebrities faced in south korea. a lot of able. leaders of nato countries has started talks on day 2 of her gathering that has exposed divisions within the organization the meeting is taking place just outside the british capital london and is expected to result in a joint statement or $29.00 member as china's growing economic and military strength and its rule as a potential adverse 3 of the alliance is expected to be discussed day one of the

gathering so friction a sharp differences emerge in public between the u.s. and france over a nato strategic goal coming. didn't become despondent and nato experts terry shoes is in london and joins me now from there kerry after a day with so much acrimony now the leaders of nato are closeted in a meeting which is expected to last some 3 hours do we know what's on the agenda yes i'm reader we do because the statement that is going to be approved by all $29.00 leaders has been worked on for weeks now so that basically all they're going to do is in dorset they will talk about china it will talk about hybrid threats it will talk about the importance of unity in these seeing these challenges coming from the outside but as you mentioned most of the threats to nato at the moment have been coming from disunity inside the differences of opinion between the u.s. and china the role reversal of presidents trumping mccraw on in critiquing nato and

of course you've got the other allies who are not paying their their 2 percent of g.d.p. whom president trump is focused on attacking so there's plenty of problems inside the alliance at the moment that almost is is distracting them from the external threats the traditional external threats like russia and the islamic state that you mentioned china that is one area which the need to leaders seem to agree is china emerging as a new potential threat for the military alliance. nato definitely does not want to classify china as a threat it says that china is an emerging power and it has not ever taken stock of its relationship with china it's been slow to do that and this meeting is in fact the 1st time that they will have brought together research from all over the inside the nato alliance to talk about both what they're calling the

opportunities and the challenges of the relationship with china while way in 5 g. technology is one of the big ones on the agenda we've seen disputes over that between the united states and its european allies and each country is going to have to decide for itself whether it thinks the risks of using chinese technology are worth it and so those are some of the issues that are being discussed but at the moment nato says it just wants to take stock of these definitely not classify china as a threat and despite all this intelligence divisions that you mentioned terry the nato secretary general against charlton but is really upbeat about the alliance saying it's active and it's adapting to new challenges it's agile how important is it for these $29.00 leaders to come out of that meeting and put on a convincing sure few 90. well let's be honest ari that that's his job he has to be upbeat about the alliance he's the one that has to bring all these $29.00 leaders together and show that the alliance is better together than divided and that's going to be the message that he wants to come out of this meeting at that's

what british prime minister boris johnson as the host said going into this meeting that everyone agrees that they are better off inside nato than outside nato and that they're going to very much push that message even as everyone is very worried about the wild card president trump he used photo opportunities yesterday to hold unilateral press conferences and he's got 3 more bilateral meetings scheduled today and nobody knows what he's going to do everyone's just hoping that by having a short meeting of just 3 hours they can minimize the opportunity for it to be hijacked for anything else they would like very much to come out and endorse this statement all 29 leaders and say we're going to address the challenges of the future together teri schultz in downtown thank you very much for that assessment of the nato leaders gathering that thank you. this may not bring you up to date with some of the stories making news around the want a renowned japanese doctor has died in the tank in afghanistan. devoted his life to

helping its poorest people he was killed with 5 others when gunmen attacked his vehicle in the city of jalalabad in of 2 of them was awarded an honorary of citizenship. right police have fired tear gas to disperse demonstrators in the lebanese capital beirut people had gathered to protest against outgoing prime minister saad hariri is backing for a prominent businessman to the place and anti-government demonstrations began 2 months ago. u.s. senator harris is ending a bid for the democratic presidential nomination she says she does not have the money to carry on campaigning the $15.00 contenders running for the democratic nomination voting on candidates begins in iowa in february. the democratic led house of representatives has approved a report by its intelligence committee that makes a case for impeaching u.s. president donald trump the document says the evidence for impeachment is

overwhelming republicans in the house did not back to report and the white house claims it's failed to produce any evidence of wrongdoing. the report concludes 2 weeks of public hearings into the president's alleged wrongdoings and the conclusion is damning donald trump placed his own personal and political interests above the national interest he sought to undermine the election process and endangered national security. the chairman of the house intelligence committee said the evidence was overwhelming. this report chronicles a scheme by the president night states to coerce an ally ukraine that is at war with an adversary russia into doing the pleasure of the president's political dirty work it involves a scheme in which donald trump withheld official acts of white house meeting as

well as hundreds of millions of dollars of needed military assistance in order to compel that power to deliver to investigations that he believed would assist his reelection campaign. the reports maps out a scheme to pressure ukraine into investigating democratic presidential hopeful joe biden and his family trump also allegedly pressured ukrainian president voted me the lenski to investigate to debunk conspiracy theory that it was ukraine and not russia this interfered in the 2016 us election the report also accuses trump of obstructing the investigation by refusing to provide documents and blocking government officials from testifying trump who is in london for the nato summit seemed unfazed by the reports saying he had the backing of his party. the. impeachment folks is going nowhere the republican party is that it is this is right now i have never seen it in. the house intelligence committee approved the report

on tuesday it's now up to the judiciary committee to consider the evidence and draft the articles of impeachment against the president democrat saying to hold a full house vote on impeachment before christmas. you're watching the news coming to you live from berlin coming up ahead. odd numbers on miami beach we get a preview of on its part of. the contemporary art. but 1st the u.s. house of representatives has passed a bill to impose sanctions on chinese officials over the crackdown on riga muslims more than a 1000000 readers and other muslim minorities are kept in one beijing course reeducation camps the legislation calls for an end to what it describes as arbitrary detention torture and harris meant of the minority community or china's foreign ministry has criticized the bill as

a smear and says the camps provide the kish to train. now let's head straight to beijing and to be correspondent christopher christopher there's been a very angry reaction from china to this legislation and the u.s. vision has warned that a price must be big what could this mean. well the bigger issue between the sides right now is the trade dispute and so far they've been able to isolate that from these these other disagreements that they're having that donald trump is looking at a slowing economy as he's going into an election year and beijing could use that as as leverage if it wanted to but there are other weapons at its disposal that could ban visits by u.s. officials who aren't identified with with this criticism with this policy could ban all u.s. diplomats from visiting mission john we also have to look at measures taken after

the congress passed this recent hong kong human rights and democracy law a few days ago trying to was equally enraged by that out and they have moved now to sanction human rights groups operating in hong kong we're not quite sure how yet and also to ban a ship as it's u.s. navy and military buildings it's almost a minority leaders in the education camps. one would have to think that would be very unlikely this is a policy that the government has backed consistently. from the 1st time that they admitted that the camps did exist it's closely identified with the communist party leader or president xi jinping sort of he has been. very much involved not clear if it was his idea in the 1st place but he has been very supportive of it. but again recent document weeks both from the new york times and

the international consortium of investigative journalists show that there are people within the system who are not happy with how it's being won and what the rest of the world knew what's really behind it they may be there may be people in the government also who are worried about it affecting their own lives their travel . if they come into magnitsky sanctions for example would could be could be make things very difficult for them and they're also local officials who are who think that the policies may be going too far that is having a very detrimental effect on the whole kannan even while it's supposedly achieving its goals of of of stopping terrorism and in stabilizing the region. disability in eighty's china correspondent in beijing thank you very much thank you . in south korea the death of a young center betty in recent months has highlighted the intense pressure is faced by key pop stars the latest is actor. who started out as

a kid pop before it seems likely that all 3 deaths in recent months were suicide they've exposed the dark end of the underbelly of south korea's lucrative entertainment industry with cyber bullying and video pornography. cool haro in happier times like a pop star a popular face of the band karo. but a few years later at just $28.00 she was dead suicide the only way out from the constant stream of vicious cyber bullying. normally when you were injured from physical violence you can go to a hospital to get treated and recover but online violence is a bigger problem because it can't be treated that way and sometimes it can even

lead to death or can we get on with and. this led to the death of sally one of 2 horace friends a vocal critic of south korea's rigid ideals on how women should behave the social media backlash was cruel member of parliament parks and soak wants to address the issue through legislation her bill aims to make it possible for anyone to ask web portals to take down malicious or false comments. i am proposing defines hate discrimination as illegal information and allows anyone not just the victim to request comments to be taken down celebrities who are engaged in pop culture especially those who are young are defenseless lee exposed to cyber violence now it is time for the law and society to protect. the laws. bill hasn't been passed meanwhile the crimes continue but there is some forward movement as former boyfriend and another man both k.

pop stars were recently handed in jail terms for raping a woman and sharing videos of the ordeal the case exposed to toxic culture of illicit video sharing industry. which i am very sorry. i committed an inexcusable crime i had made all my charges. but such admissions are rare meanwhile women are left to shoulder the burden of hate and vicious online attacks and for some it is too much. less franks and joins me now from seoul south korea friend what's been the reaction there to another tragic death in the country's entertainment industry. well certainly it is quite startling news to come out today of another actor it's unclear whether his death was suicide at this time and there have been reports that he was not necessarily the subject of of cyber bullying as was the case with gu

and solely that change in re just and in commenting on the package that you played me before i came on the name of that law is called the change in really laws and one of the things that came out of. suicide that was in october that was 42 days prior to google rise taking of of her own life one of the things that came out of that was a poll of south koreans not just regarding taking down those comments off of off of the internet off of these comment sites but also requiring those that post comments to use their real names this is something that we've seen in other subjects on the internet including those posting comments that would incite people to do violence racist comments and sexist comments being posted with the argument that those comments need to have people use their real names to prevent this type

of slander and and hateful behavior from going online and having you know quite disastrous consequences absolutely have these debts lost to spot a debate of on just how difficult it can be for these key fob stars get extended it's a bit more about the kind of pressure these face. yes in the case of silly she got into this business at a very young age as a toddler and actually a comedian a fellow named kwan young child he created a counseling service around the k. pop industry he points out that again they are they are groomed as you think they have a very intensive training schedules even as young people they are cloistered in terms of their social circles so that they avoid getting themselves into in some type of trouble they're usually in groups like a boy band or girl band and that group provides their social networking they get

into trouble often when their group has sort of. lost favor in the public become less popular and then they embark on a solo career and they they don't necessarily have that that group around them he also pointed out at a very young age in terms of their entertainment in terms of their talent their pursuing 2 things fame and money at the expense of perhaps why they got into performing in the 1st place which is enjoyment so is there any discussion then what should be done to protect and support the stars to prevent another tragedy from taking place this if you can fact. that's a that's a that's a very good point they also make this issue that this crosses into cyber bully in terms of what's going on in schools and again as i mentioned before this crosses over subject matter about how we deal with this on the internet after all we're only 15 years or so into the internet and we have yet to catch up legislatively but

certainly those around people need to become more involved only 5 percent of cyber bullying in in south korea is even reported to either parents teachers or the authorities in there needs to also be an address addressing of of the stigma of people coming forward and saying that they are the victims of of these types of crimes frank smith and so south korea thank you very much for that the u.n. climate conference now underway in madrid has shop on the focus on cutting global emissions of carbon dioxide a time season taiwan a stepping up efforts to clean up their energy sector c o 2 emissions are 10 times but person play here well above the european average of 7 here in taiwan electricity is very cheap but most of us is still generation in coal and gas powered plants that's despite the fact that the government office subsidies for solar panels. chan hooping is
