president donald trump democrats are presenting their arguments for convicting champ and removing him from office democrat impeachment manages told the senate that trump's abuse of power was unprecedented and dangerous presenting videos and slides as evidence they accuse him of misusing his office to gain a political advantage over his rivals trunk's legal team will next have 24 hours to present their case trump himself has not attended the trial so far. was talk about all of this in more detail let's go straight to washington where the correspondent for the n.a.s. is standing by public what have we learned so far on day 3. i held that well 1st and foremost managers on thursdays of they focus very much on the 1st article of the peach mint and that's for abuse of power we heard from one of the senior democrats jerry nadler he said the alleged actions threaten the entire

system so once again we're seeing how there's a heavy focus on trump affecting or or threatening the constitution here in the united states the managers have been stressing the allegations against president trump. are based on the fact that he withheld military aid and a white house meeting in order to put pressure on the ukrainian president voted to meet selenski with the aim of investigating the former vice president joe biden and the aim of that was to discredit him head of the 2028 action the monitors have also been using you mention that a lot of video clips are also even being tweets as part of their case and they've been playing even old clips of those who support the president at the moan at the moment but who have also changed their opinions will say on the impeachment over the years especially since the bill clinton impeachment back in 1999 now we know

that the biggest dispute between the 2 parties so far has been the witnesses and the signs of movement there. well you said it there i mean there has been a dispute the democrats have been stressing that they really want to call witnesses they also want new evidence included in the trial but of course republicans are not going for it at the moment they haven't budged but there is a lot of emphasis on especially 3 republicans who have said that they would be willing to have witnesses and also further evidence included just to give you a few names there senator susan collins she's from maine there's lisa murkowski from alaska and a name which might be quite familiar to some that's mitt romney from utah he's been a big critic of president trump but saying that they've been fairly tight lipped for the moment helena but we'll wait and see how this all pans out the republicans will see the white house defense will take over on saturday and we'll see how it

pans out and see whether there is any movement within the republicans also it's interesting to note as well the president is in florida at the moment very far away from washington he's down there for the republican national committee's winter meeting but he hasn't been quiet because he's been tweeting quite a lot all right well watch this space you never know correspondent. washington thanks for that. well listen to the young that was the message today at the isolating the world economic forum and german chancellor angela merkel told the world's business elites you see young activists demanding action when it comes to climate change she warned of a rift between young people who see an uncertain future and an older generation that denies the dangerous of global warming. dodgy doors were not going to stop until americans from delivering today's warning to davos this is the 12th time the

german chancellor has spoken at the forum but never have the stakes been higher merkel appealed to the world to arjun li make good on the power of climate accords . the question of achieving the goals of the paris agreement could be a question of survival for the whole planet which is why we need to act or instead serve is an on stricter. it's also why environmental themes have played bigger than ever this year with activism royalty meeting actually to the future king welcomed greta to unburden the us president is not a fan the german chancellor try to mediate thank you. but that's up to doing good side time is of the essence when the older ones have to be careful.

i am 65 years old all the impatience of our young people is something we are to tap as a potential investor we are to understand that they obviously look at a far different horizon well beyond 2052nd also. the talk of intergenerational divisions jarred somewhat with the calm outside. perhaps why merkel seized her last with a call to arms for the business elite to work together to avoid apply make disaster . they called us for a cohesive and sustainable world doesn't. stakeholders for a sustainable world i would argue where all this talk politics sions or this you are this all of your we try to take this seriously there are a whole host of opportunities open to us but we cannot get it inward looking and going it alone that would be the completely wrong lesson to take all these years after the 2nd world war in the deciding that they. know what matters is whether the class was paying attention. right or surrender the top story that we're following

for you world leaders who pay tribute to survivors of the holocaust and those who died at the fashion memorial injurious that it is the story of commemorations marking the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the auschwitz the death count in a speech german president time to time i am underlined his country's historical responsibility so fight anti-semitism. for world news coming up at the top of the out thanks for the company see that. people are perched reality wait a 2nd we want to hold a shout out facts instead of vague ideas should deliver us. from the realities of cryptocurrency.
