a 100 percent know what's going to happen next. so as you say, quite directly joke, which one that the federal circuit court battle, if you like. i'm really on a point of technicality based around the fact that beautiful officials, when they did to tie them a melvin. apple gave him a certain timeline where he could make presentations representations, contact other people to try and convince authorities why his, his fees are at that stage on the 6th of january, was okay to come in. that what happened was they actually canceled his visa about 15 minutes before that time had expired. and that was the main point that the judge throughout the case to die. and they think to blame reinstated. joking. which is these are on the grounds that he missed out on the opportunity to have those discussions with lawyers. but tennis is strictly with the government, whoever i'm put forward, a stronger case to stay in australia. so it was, it was on that basis that he is visa has now been if he like, reinstated. but the situation currently is the federal government has indicated through its law is that its immigration minister alex hall can still step in and re

canceled ciocca bitches visa and mc jibley chimera. country this evening it can still happen. they may again, be a challenge in the course of to, to that from joking, which is take, but that's where we stand at the moment. we got the threat of legal of further these a cancellation from the federal government and you got no back job between his legal team and you've got the serbian support is outside. it is a quite bizarre situation. a bizarre and very complex situation. steve, can you tell us where no back joke of edge is right now? yes, we understand he's in see with these lawyers inside which is fairly central to the the center of melbourne. he was able to leave the judge allowed joke image to leave that previous hotel that we've been talking about for the last few days, which was in college and a couple of films is outside of the city. so that he could take part in the court

proceedings. from old, comfortable environment and we understand that way he still is and there's a police presence out there. exactly. well that's why we don't know, but probably crowd control. but in this story it's very difficult to guess what's coming next. and you know, if, if the federal government did decide to cancel his visa, you can imagine when that proceeding took place in it, in a physical sense, that would be very volatile. and if he can stay, is it clear that he would actually compete in the, in the tournament? yes, we'll as, as we understand it, yes, because tennis is dalia had indicated that it wanted to know by tuesday. it's monday night in australia. so they wanted know by tuesday whether i joker, which was eligible to play. so as long as this is decided me can into the tournament and as it stands, he could now into the torment. he has a valid reason as it stands at the moment. so yes, he could, he could very much take his place in the field next monday or tuesday, depending on when he plays. okay, we'll leave it there, tennis commentator, steve,

tatters after the army suppressed. the countries were hinge, a muslims by thousands died and many more were displaced. known simply as the lady, she remains immensely popular with the countries buddhist majority. since the military pushed their way to power, civil society, me and more has been in disarray. clashes between the armed forces and militia groups have left scores dead and the regime has come down for solely on widespread protests. the hunter has not relented. they are dead said on preventing sushi and her supporters from returning to power. now to some other stories, making news around the world of fire ravaged a high rise bronx apartment building on sunday morning, killing 19 people including 9 children. the fire was spark by a malfunctioning space heater, firefighter. sound victims on every floor. many in cardiac and respiratory arrest

invasion of ukraine. moscow says it feels threatened by us the nato expansion. both sides have played down hopes of a breakthrough and our brussels bureau chief, alexander phenomena. following these talks for us in geneva, alexander, it's good to see you. so what expectations do the us and russia have a going into this meeting? all the talks are under way right behind me in the u. s. mission to geneva, and we have to say that we have to lower our expectations. the biden administration has said that there are not expecting any breakthroughs with you as secretary of state blinking, describing the russian security proposals as a list of absolutely non starter demands. they are saying that what is

happening today is just an opportunity to present positions not to resolve than and what we are hearing from the russian delegation doesn't sound very optimistic either with the had of the russian delegation with coffee saying that he is disappointed with regards to the signals that were coming out a hat of the meeting. and the key question here, at least for the west, is whether russia is entering those talks in good faith, or whether they are just looking for a chance to walk away from their negotiating table, creating a pretext for another incursion into ukraine. or these are talks about ukraine and they're taking place between us and russian. diplomats. why aren't the ukrainians themselves at the table? well, the ukrainians are not at the tables. neither are representatives of the european union. and critics said that to the kremlin,

that wanted to have those bilateral talks with the d. u, as is trying to divide the u as from its allies. however, washington is saying there are going to discuss just by a literal issues, a bill today in geneva with when be sherman the hat of the you as delegation here saying that nothing will be discussed about the european security without the u. s. allies. however, there has been a lot of criticism, and we also have to add that a representative of the ukrainian government is to day in brussels. it to holds talks with nature in a clear signal that ne, till is a supporting ukraine. at the same time, russian troops have been deployed because it's done in the past week to help put down protests there. what impact of any is that having on the talks this week? well, i think that it could have an impact, even though we of course,

have to stress that the situation in kazakhstan doesn't have anything to do directly with ukraine or with the threat that the russian troops of the ukraine border are posing to ukraine. but some critics are saying that the fact that there are now russian troops in kazakhstan, even though they are invited upon the request of the causes them government, is just yet another example how russia is trying to extend its footprint and its influence in former soviet republics now independent states and in the region that russia regards as, as here of its influence. alexander phenomena reporting from geneva, they're good to talk to you to sports now in football, cologne, cat, they're going to seek a status by the skin of their t t classes and as they survived, are allegation, play off. but things haven't proved this time around and they made light work of
