in just a few hours from now but with the pandemic and storming of the capitol 2 weeks ago this really will be a very different inauguration tell us what to expect it really will be soon we usually as you know more than a 1000000 visitors come here to the national mall to celebrate and cheer for their new president of course this time around will be very different 1st and foremost washington d.c. is under locked on the whole capital area shut down essentially if you look behind me you can see the roadblock perhaps this is close as you us and general public can get to the u.s. capitol all a result of course of that violent in so rection that took place at the capitol today 2 weeks ago of course so it will be different to that extent usually a 1000000 or more are here about nevertheless there will be a lot of americans and viewers around the world following this important day in history live on television you know president elect biden does face huge challenges

as he gets sworn in today and he has many to face it tell us more about what it takes fact of his 1st day in office. yeah it's a very ambitious agenda as he takes office today of course he will start off a signing several. orders to get started right away number one and that will be signed today after the inauguration ceremony you see announce that he will return to the paris climate agreement so climate change of course being one of his priorities and then he wants to undo that so-called travel ban for muslim countries that will also happens happen very quickly swiftly he inherits a very complicated political situation with several overlying crises of the cold with pen demick of course is one of them yesterday marked 400000 victims here in the united states alone the economy is reeling unemployment and and of course

politically the country is a divided as it hasn't been since the end of the civil war and oliver tell us what you expect to see from the outgoing president donald trump i mean he is not going to be after an operation today that's right he's about to depart to a florida skipping the inauguration really breaking there with a long standing tradition of course last night he issued a farewells. addressing his followers largely it with a surprising change in rhetoric really wishing his successor good luck so he hasn't done that before no mention also of his baseless claims of voter fraud in that message but he reiterated that he believes this is just the beginning for his movement there there were reports that he mentioned that he would like to found his own party that would go by the name of the patriot party so no matter what he does though it is likely that he will stick around at least as a disruptive force for joe biden and his of ministration views oliver south

reporting there from washington where the inauguration is set to get underway in a few hours time thank you very much. well don't trump has arguably been the most divisive president in living u.s. memory he leaves office in disgrace the only ever president to be impeached twice and he is up ended america's position in the world as well breaking longstanding alliances while building an unprecedented wave of support back home with his america 1st message so how will history remember donald trump we take a look at his legacy i am officially running. for president of the united states. and we are going to make our country great again. it was this campaign slogan and became his mantra but once an office did donald trump make america great again ask a trump supporter and they'll say yes and point above all to job creation and tax

cuts as major achievements. ask an opponent and they'll disagree likely citing trans handling of the coronavirus pandemic as proof of his failure of the hospital to throw her out an article 30 birthday there would. have to forge is in the white house there's a range of issues that define trumps legacy and divide opinion some of them will continue to shape the american society long after he's gone such as the new makeup of the us supreme court his appointment of 3 new judges has ensured a conservative majority 2 years to come. on the streets police brutality continues to enrage people and racial tensions are running high the recent study by the f.b.i. found that hate crime is at its highest level for more than a decade and critics say trump has done nothing to bring people together give me what is a protester who i really can do outgrow her son right proud of my boys stand back

and stand by but i'll tell you what i'll tell you what somebody has got to do something about anti for and the left because this is not a right as we. trump also leaves the controversial legacy when it comes to the environment he's reversed more than $100.00 protective regulations and left the paris climate accord environmentalists say it's cause damage that will be difficult to reverse. as the sun sets on his time in the white house the united states is a deeply divided nation and donald trump stands accused of having undermined dialogue and democracy itself his distrust of science and journalism and his complicated relationship with the trees have not only polarized us society but been connected to the spread of conspiracy theories around the world. or look at look at all of the failed. and that may end up being donald trump's most profound and engineering legacy based in and outside of the united states.

while donald trump will also be iraq irrevocably linked to some of the most shocking images seen in recent political history the january 6th storming of the u.s. capitol now the f.b.i. has arrested more than 125 people in connection with the insurrection and social media is playing an important role many protesters openly broadcast their crimes on the internet but with an avalanche of material to get through the f.b.i. is now asking the public to help identify the perpetrators and matthew moore is looking into the story for us hi matthew how has the f.b.i. handled this investigation well this is one of the biggest investigations in the department of justice's history so they had to come on a very broad scope and they've had lots and lots of material to get through and these are like anything that we've seen before the crimes were captured in real time by the perpetrators and there are potentially hundreds of suspects from all

over the united states so it's a huge challenge and the f.b.i. has and kind of the can be no surprise is that they've asked the public for help to try to kind of identify the end of it. tools at their most came to speak to on social media they wanted posters that that last basically can can people identify the individuals who they think were connected to some of the more extreme violence that occurred on that day and these are people from across the united states a lot of them are older men not surprisingly. and that's just a sample this is really a sample of the 140000 or saw images that the f.b.i. is having to scour to try to work who was where when what crimes that they may they have committed and it's such a huge task that obviously and it's no surprise really that they're asking the public to kind of help out with up and what kind of response are they getting well can the one hand as a say this was broadcast that people broadcast themselves the live stream they

tweeted selfies they sent posts they shared their videos all over multiples and social media accounts on the other under so much that they really have had to use the help of the public and then the response has been kind of overwhelming with a so. 500 hours or so of material was deleted from par and 500 hours of live footage but not before a program or off his own back archives and that material was then used by public on a u.s. investigation of best bits of body group of journalists and they've managed to kind of make sense of what happened on that day with a timeline of people are able to watch the clips as they happened where they where they happened and then kind of send in tests that they identify people who are in the videos and that's just one example but another example which i've kind of noticed on the social media is individuals. turning themselves into kind of like an army of digital sleuth really kind of using their experience to try to identify ok distinction distinctive clothing on individuals that maybe then can canaveral the

serifs and whether it's military paraphernalia or badges or just kind of. unusual sporting brand. and that's been kind of i've seen not happening and that's led to arrests already. bob on with this has been. the police in the authorities are kind of careful to stress that people shouldn't publish names before the arrests have been made in case they kind of. the lead to potentially harming the reputations of innocent people or he said arrests i mean how successful has this been how many arrests have been actually linked to some of these social media posts we know that there's been kind of $125.00 arrests so far at least he's perhaps the most recognizable would be. chancellor who was seen in all the pictures wearing a clue skin with horns. carrying a 6 foot spear and he became almost the face of the insurrection and.

there's another man adam johnson his image went viral when he was seen carrying the electron out of the capitol building and then he later posted a photo on his facebook account and the f.b.i. were able to use that in an affidavit and say that look he was there himself posted on his facebook channel to say he was there and so that's just one example of people social media. uploads kind of coming back to haunt them but then there was another example of 2 police officers or rather and there a lawmaker from virginia broadcast from custom cell 5 go into the capital and that was deleted but not before someone had saved and he's been arrested so there's been lots and lots of examples of this so far very interesting to get these matthew more forests thank you. ok let's take a look now at some other stories making headlines around the world a telly in the prime minister to set the country has narrowly won a crucial confidence vote to stay in power that comes after former premier matteo

renzi pulled his party out of the coalition government but country failed to secure an absolute majority meaning he now has a minority government that will struggle to implement its policies. ali baba founder jack ma has made his 1st public appearance since october china's most high profile tech billionaire hadn't been seen since he publicly criticised chinese regulators stoking speculation that he was missing chinese state media reported the businessman met with 100 rural teachers via a video meeting on wednesday. rescuers in eastern china are stepping up efforts to try to reach 22 miners trapped in a gold mine authorities have established contact with 12 of the men who have been stuck underground since an explosion damaged the entrance to the mine 10 days ago but fears for their survival are growing and in tunisia police have clashed with protesters for a 5th night in several cities including arianna the unrest has been sparked by mounting anger over the country's economic crisis worse than by the pandemic police

used tear gas while protesters set barricades on fire and threw objects at security forces. here in germany the government has extended the current coronavirus lock down to mid february although the country has been reporting a drop in new infections german leaders hope that further restrictions can slow the spread of more transmissible coronavirus variants that have emerged new rules will also come into effect including the wearing of higher quality masks and more people working from home. just as infection numbers were starting to decline in germany variant strains of covert 19 believed to be more contagious could undo all the hard work they've been isolated cases of some strains and all thora t's want to get on top of the threat. isn't so if those are the ones that the scientists tell us that it's not yet dominant. there's still some time to contain the danger.

of course it would be wrong to conclude from that that we still have all the time in the world to act and then so just over a month into germany's latest lockdown the chancellor in the 16 state premiers agreed to extend existing measures until mid february large parts of public life will remain closed mike schools and daycare centers but also shops museums theaters and restaurants. they'll be a lot more of these to be seen medical masks will be compulsory on public transport and in shops the so-called f p 2 masks offer greater protection but common surgical masks will also be allowed. and there's to be much more working from home the government's imposing stricter rules to stop office workers from commuting as much reducing the infection risk on public transport. germany's latest once again

appealing for patients is the salt what we are asking of people is hard. but the priority must be protection that is what we have to take into account and that is what we have taken into account today. for now the public is mostly on side recent polling shows 40 percent happy with stricter measures while just over 20 percent would prefer things to stay as they are but around a 3rd want restrictions to be eased or to end completely before that happens there's likely to be some hard weeks ahead infection rates are still nearly 3 times the preferred level. but with patience persistence and sticking to the rules both origins hope the pandemic will start to loosen its grip on germany. let's take a look at some other developments in a pandemic zimbabwe's foreign minister. has died

a day after testing positive for coke at 19 he is the 3rd government minister to succumb to the disease since the pandemic hits and by the way last march authorities in beijing have imposed a lockdown on 5 neighborhoods after the city reported a handful of new cases china reported 103 new cases countrywide the number of cases linked to the australian open tennis tournament in australia has risen to 10 after 2 players and a support person tested positive for the virus a total of $72.00 players remain under strict quarantine and the world health organization says the more contagious u.k. variant has now been detected in at least 60 countries 10 more than a week ago. we have now to the black sea and to a sprawling palace complex with its own ampitheater a tea house and a hello pad who owns it while kremlin critic alexina volley has released a 2 hour video investigation into the complex saying the palace was built for

russian president vladimir putin using taxpayer money the kremlin has denied those allegations the video was posted by of all these team 2 days after he was jailed upon returning to russia. they calling it's the new best buy in the 2 hour video only explains how his anticorruption foundation had been able to film the property from above for the 1st time using a drone he says is nothing like it anywhere in the country. without exaggeration it is the most secretive unguarded facility in russia it isn't a country house or a residence it's an entire city or rather a kingdom it has impregnable fences its own harbor guards or churches own checkpoints no fly zone and even its own border point it is a separate state inside russia. details of the past were leaked by construction workers said to be shocked at its opulence among its many features this green mountain reported to house an underground ice hockey rink. this is an m.p.

theatre. never only points out the exits of a tunnel used by putin to access the beach. he also emphasizes not just the size of the palace but also the vastness of the area its occupies which is 3 and a half times the size of the nearest city. the kremlin rejects all the claims calling them nonsensical. these are ground us allegations they are norms units and a compilation of complications nothing else that's a pretty simple goal of such documents such pseudo investigations it's a scam we want all the people taken into account the big number of. been a valley insists that not only does this property belong to putin but that it was financed through corruption and the misuse of public phones calling it the biggest

bribe in history to which the russian president must be held to account for. our correspondent you're standing by for us in moscow hi yuri what about the timing of this why did a lesson of all they decide to release this film now also in the long experience right at the beginning go through video why he's only coming out with this now he says he didn't want to be accused of taking a shot at the putin from abroad where he was safe. clearly wants to go on the offensive he wants to show that he is not afraid of anything already showed that by coming back to russia of course he didn't know for sure he would be arrested but if the deeds seem likely he has been accused in the past to me by the kremlin of being an instrument of the west and secret service which has always denied it by releasing this video while he is in a russian prison now he is presenting himself as a russian politician with no plans of leaving the country someone who beats prepared to go through thick and thin with people here we saw in the report that

the kremlin says this is an old record tell us more about the reactions from authorities. well the official reaction is of course nor surprised mention the press secretary off but to put in a bit of a scoff sad it's and of a blade recalled something that not only has been saying over and over again they had of the duma the russian parliament gets just laughable audion insisted not only is being used as a tool by the western secret services and the us to state department all that not only das usat is backed by foreign states and russia would be to prevent such foreign interference as what people see reactions here as in a volley investigation is the top video on russian you tube it has gotten nearly 20000000 views since it was published last night and it's a hot topic on social media of course as well enough ali people have even created a filter on instagram with which you can use or you can see yourself in a 3 d. model in the rooms of the palace and take a selfie so it's getting

a lot of attention what impact do you think this is going to actually have for the kremlin. well it may sound very strange to western ears but the answer is nothing noir impact probably a western politician would to resign immediately and any case it would be a political earthquake but not here soon not in russia we have to keep in mind that although it's the most spectacular video by not only or if not only so far it's not the 1st mine one this is a typical video one of only in 2017 he published a similar investigation about to the event prime minister that means for me the if which prompted the protests in the country but the didn't change anything everyone here already knew that putin was rachel is rich and despite social media discussions right now state backed media media will of course not accuse putin but rather present novelli as someone who has betrayed his country and wants to weaken russia yuri rachet a reporting for us in moscow thank you. in
