the latest. also coming up in cambodia, the are san summit wraps up with an agreement on a strategic partnership with the united states. will that strengthen us president biden? i had of his talks with a chinese premier at the g. 20 summit to go to our correspondent in town pen to find out. first, the warring parties and ethiopia take another step towards peace. with a cease fire holding a fresh deal allows humanitarian aid into the war torn t region. and then bonus league of football, arby leipzig, win for the night time and 10 outings. meeting. freeman ah, a marion evans dean. welcome to the program. you as democrats have defined expect,

sions and the country's mid term vote to win a crucial seat to control the senate. democrat, catherine court, as master has won reelection in the nevada senate race. victory gives her party control of the chamber for the next 2 years of jo biden's presidency court as master defeated, her republican challenger adam lac salt whose early lead dwindled after late counting balance came in. well, the wind breaks the historical trend of the president's party, typically losing seats and mid term elections. let's take a closer look at the numbers. now, these are the seeds that are not up for grabs in this election. and if you add all the newly decided races, you can see the democrats leading with 50 seats, while the republicans hold 49 seat. one seat is still open, that's georgia which will hold a run off ballad in december. but with vice president, commonly harris being able to cast time breaking votes, control of the senate is now out of reach for the republicans. while the nevada

senate race was among the tightest of the us mid terms, but it was a great result for the democrats. d w. washington correspondence him is. so misconduct had more certainly it's a great result for the democrats. i mean, this was very close and we knew heading into these elections that this race, in particular, would come down to the wire. i mean, what you need to know about nevada is that this was the senate race. the democrats were most worried about. they saw the democrat here, catherine cortez master. as being one of the most endangered senate democrats in the country. she was down in the polls ahead of the election to her republican opponent, adam lac salt will made a difference words those malan ballots that have been meticulously counted all week and we know that mail and balance tend to skew in the favor of the democrats. now i spend some time on the ground with the most powerful private sector union in nevada . that is the culinary workers union. and they really are a powerhouse for the democrats. they ran a massive canvassing campaign going door to door with working class voters with

voters of color in particular, trying to a stump for the democrats, essentially because they say the democrats are the ones that best reflect their policies that might have made a difference, but certain we'll have to wait and see who voted how, but yes, this is for the democrats, a really significant victory. now, assuming we can see it's still very late at night in washington where you are and this news broke rather late on saturday us. so our democrats reacting in how are they reacting to this victory wishes, some democrats, a, taking a twitter, for example. helena says a victory for democracy, for reproductive rights. and as a clear repudiation of republicans, i mean the democrats in the lead up to this vote worked hard to paint republicans as extremists that would put democracy at front. and remember that heading into these elections, we had expected this republican red wave that republicans would sweep through the

house of representatives and to possibly the senate that did not materialize. a president biden himself has been one of the loudest voices saying that voters are very clear that they trust the democrats and their policies. and he actually commented on this victory and at the audience summit in cambodia. take listen to what he said or terry work graduation with. sure. murray's got a majority again. we're focusing now on on ga. feel good. well we are and i know i'm a co code optimist. understand. i'm not surprised, but i'm incredibly, please get your reflection quality work candidates. so a pleased president there. he mentioned the state of georgia a. remember that georgia is headed towards a run off on december 6th between the democrat and the republican. they're running a for the senate. it does take a little pressure of course, off of georgia because it's not going to be the decisive voter. and it's perhaps

a relief for the state of georgia that it won't be the decisive vote, but it's important to know that if democrats could win georgia as well, it isn't just icing on the cake. and the democrats could have a majority on the committees in the senate, which would be a balloon for them as well. so all in all, nevada's been important and the democrats are hoping they can pick up georgia as well. all right, so obviously the president is quite pleased with the democratic control, the senate, but what concretely does it mean for his agenda in the next 2 years? it's a little too early to tell a conclusively, because we're still waiting for results from the house of representatives. some close races there were ballots, are still being counted. if it does end up happening that republicans gain control of the house of representatives. it would mean a divided government, so one chamber of congress would be in the hands of the democrats and the other, and the republicans. and that does still mean some trouble for president biden. and his agenda at the republicans have vowed that they will stop any spending plans

that the president might have if they have control of the house of representatives . they have also indicated that they want to launch investigations into, for example, president biden's border policies is immigration policy also to his family, his son hunter biden. and as a financial dealings, so things could still get tricky for the president. but even if the republicans get control of the house of representatives, it would be with a very small majority. and that makes it even harder for them to pursue all of those goals that they've announced that they have. so we'll have to wait and see where the chips fall in the house of representatives, but it's still too close to call in terms of who will take control of the house, dw, the semi them a scanner in washington for us. see me, thanks for your reporting. we appreciated you as president joe biden has forged an important strategic partnership with the association of southeast asian nations and their annual summit in cambodia. as that
