democrats the 50 seats they needed to keep control of the senate. president joe biden received the news at a summit in cambodia and sent this message to the senate majority leader or terry worked. congratulations of some new schumer's. not a majority. again. we're focusing now on i'm ga. feel good, lower. and oh, i know i'm a cockeyed optimist. i understand you. i'm not surprised what i'm incredibly please . i think it's a reflection quality. we're kenley's. a bitter defeat for adam like salt the republican candidate in the swing state of nevada. he was endorsed by former u. s. president donald trump, but the so called red wave, the republicans hoped for failed to materialize. instead, the democrats had their best mid term election results in 2 decades,

despite president biden's approval rating, hovering around 40 percent. historically, the party of the sitting president loses seats in mid terms. democrats are hoping victory in the runoff vote in georgia in december. we'll hand them an outright majority in the u. s. senate. earlier i talked to matthew cornish. it was the chief your correspond for political magazine, and i asked him what this all means from a european perspective. well, thanks for having me. i think from a european perspective, one has to rejoice because it's becoming clear that the biden positions towards ukraine, the united states support of ukraine is likely to continue. there will probably be more scrutiny of the military aid and other 8 that is going into ukraine. but it doesn't look like the republicans, even if they want it to would be able to do much to stuff. now the house is still

undecided, but republicans are still favored to when they're, if they do what is that likely to mean for prison? biden's foreign policy agenda. well, i think it really comes down to this important question of ukraine, as i said. and i think what, what it would mean is that there would be more scrutiny of a lot of the spending that biden has pushed and support for ukraine. and for the republicans, you really have to remember here that they are also divided on this question. there are some people who want no support for ukraine, some people want less support. but ultimately, i think, you know, they are not going to be able to help the path that biden has, has plowed here when it comes to ukraine and really, really, to other issues. because it's also worth remembering that foreign policy is really in the hands, primarily of the president in the united states. and it's only when he needs money for something that he has to go to congress. right. that was political magazines matter partnership. thank you for your insights. thank you. after russia's

withdrawal from her son, ukraine's presence zalinski has bound to keep pushing the invasion for the invasion forces out of his country. russia has left her son in devastation and danger with booby traps bombs and destroyed infrastructure. posing a challenge for returning residence. alone yellow on the street. the song of the more than 8 months on the russian occupation the day residents dreamed of has finally arrived under the hood, chicago. we've been waiting for this for so long. feel like we've been without water and electricity for months, but we're happy today, unless it's incredible. i. wow. russian forces have now withdrawn from the only regional capital they captured since the war began. it is a massive city to close to the kremlin war effort, and a stunning morale boost for ukraine. but even as the country celebrates president,

zalinski has told residence to stay vigilant, hewed as healing everywhere in the liberation territory. album disposal experts have a lot of work to do to lucian. almost 2000 explosive items have already been removed at mines trip wires, an unexploded ammunition that he wanted to do. as these 1st pictures coming out of the region showed the scars of the russian occupation are everywhere. residents have endured months without power or basic services. many recount harrowing experiences at the hands of russian occupiers. it'll gazesberg in little gives us when i had my land yuletide behind my boy geyser. delighted, then lay tied up my legs rather took a walk in or hid then as well one pulled up her nail didn't vishal. they told me that he would put the grenade under better judgment, so i couldn't run away. dick regiment elizabeth, run out of them. among the survivors, there is a recognition that things simply cannot go back to the way they were before. the

most difficult thing is that many of our neighbors became tracers. they said that russia's here forever, ukrainian authorities say russian forces are regrouping on the other side of the dinner for a river. they wandered, her song may soon be the target of retaliatory strikes from russian artillery. but despite the danger, the streets of her son, a once again alive with celebration and relief. let's take a look now at some of the other stories making headlines around the world. benjamin netanyahu has met israel's president, is our council who officially asked him to form a government there? the veteran, former prime minister, it is on track to form a stable, rightly coalition after humans for right allies, one of the majority of seats elections earlier this month. that yahoo had vowed to return to power after being hosted less than 2 years ago. he was president joe biden as promised to deepen ties with ozzy and announcing

a strategic partnership with the 10 member block. the initiative comes as the us seeks to contain the growing influence of an increasingly assertive china widening scheduled to meet the chinese leadership pena at the g. 20 summit in indonesia, on monday, warring parties and ethiopia have signed a deal allowing humanitarian supplies into the war. 20 gray region. it comes after a recent peace deal was reached between the sides with the focus now shifting to 8 and disarmament. hen shanks and hug signal another hopeful day for a theo pier. leaders from the government and to guy and rebels coming to give the to in the brutal conflicts which has displaced millions of people with a pe steel signed to live in days ago. and for toria, both sides have now decided to open up humanitarian car doors. oh, who will be and who?

b. o. the hulu. and the conflict began in november 2020 less than a year after ethiopian prime minister abbey archman won the nobel peace prize for making peace with eritrea. eritrea and fighters have since been fighting alongside ethiopian federal troops and to grind saturdays agreement commits to grind forces to give up the heavy weapons and foreign forces to withdraw from the region one. 000-0000

. oh. the agreement allows for immediate humanitarian access to all in need and t cry and its neighboring regions. a crucial step towards a more peaceful future were now joined by samuel. gotcha. who is a journalist in the field in capital? addis ababa? so samuel, does this mean that the conflict is over or could there be stumbling blocks ahead? well, it, it means it's over especially on a piece of paper on a document. but it's an open question whether the people will actually accepted on the ground, their husband, misgivings, even from the t p. left side sam saying that the pay left needed to fight more sam saying that they needed to compromise. so this conflict has been a wedge issue among ethiopians, and that's what we're seeing at the moment. so what pitfalls exactly, do you see in the agreement?

well, erm, you know, some of the agreed and, and term. so for dis army t p left, which is overwhelmingly supported by a majority of your bents, isn't accepted by people into gray. the people into dry have said they have suffered enough. they wanted the t p a left even quite more. and it's really, really a wedge issue, even if you speak to the people in the cafes and the restaurants in ethiopia, they will tell you different versions of it saying that the japan government either needed to go all the way to mckelly and defeat t p left in which they have declared the organization as a terrorist organizations. some of the to grounds are saying that their t p left needed to fight needed to be supported. perhaps the un has been accused of supporting t p. i left including the bite and administration. so again, it's a real like l all conflicts in the world. this conflict is no exception. it's a wedge issue among europeans. a girl right now the lack of humanitarian actually

has been a huge problem. the region has anything there changed since the warring parties agreed on the ceasefire. 11 days ago was the shop and government has insisted that they've opened a humanitarian corridor and aid is being allowed to go to the said gray and they're un agencies are saying that's not what's happening on the ground. they still don't have the kind of you my turn corridor that the need to really save lives. once again, famine is coming back to this country, a famine that define this country in the 1980s has become and it's reality. now. many people are still facing fam and millions are looking for some kind of support that the u. n. has been saying they don't even have the resources to help them, but they really want to try go in and save lives, but this is no exception to, to gray. it's also happening in amara and are far and according to the un, about 13000000 ethiopians are facing famine as

a direct result of this conflict. right, that was summer graduate journals, reporting for us from us out about. thank you for bringing this up to date. thank you. thank you. ah, turning to sports now and in the bonus league, happy leipzig has climbed to 2nd place in the table with the 21 victory had better blame and under a silver scored one and set up another for leipzig. the team is on a strong winning streak, having now 19 of their past 10 league games that the most inform team in the buddhist league are right now. i'll be like 6 fortunes have been transformed under coach mock. a rosa rose as pressing style was in evidence for the opening goal. any a force back surged forward with options the size, the pump for andre silva and silver did the rest. it was just his 2nd go with the season, the portuguese strike his scott. every time he's played against veda,
