the, i'm afraid i'll never see him again. no way. oh, you lost under the stats december 18th on dw, the, this is data believe news live from violin protests wrapped in george's capital and across the country. that's up to the government said it was the spending talks to join the a you purchased as the keys, the government of seeking closer ties with russia. also coming up as people return to bump out buildings in southern living on these rel stays and carried out. and asked dry kind of weapons dip out one day to the fragile truce plus columbia spearhead to an international operation that seizes $1400.00 tons of ally, illegal drugs and on covers a previously on the on traffic in the

i'm anthony out. welcome to program police in the georgia and capital tbilisi clashed with protest is up to the government announced of, of suspending negotiations to join the european union. the government announcement followed a resolution adopted by the european parliament rejecting the results of george's election last month, alleging significant irregularities. george's prime minister accused the a you of black now. demonstrators assembled outside george's parliament building in tbilisi, as well as the governing parties. headquarters protests were also reported to north or georgia in cities, georgia, seeing several anti government protest this year, but they grew following an election in october. the opposition changed the kremlin interfered in the campaign in favor of the governing georgia dream party. critics, a,

this has been moving georgia and then also are tearing direction for months. but that thursday marked a watershed moment. i'm very devastated because we were not expecting the things to go so soon and for the government to make the statements that they say today. and i think that this makes us feel very hopeless, but at the same time i think that we're becoming stronger because of that sort of see just what sparks of protest was an announcement by george's prime minister. so he said he was suspending the bid to join to you on the grounds that brussels had disrespected george and values thomas were looking for the yeah, it is categorically unacceptable for us to view you integration as an active charity that the european union must ground to us separate course, they are asking from georgia not reforms. so this is not the steps that would mean the rejection of our dignity. most business outside parliament,

thorough barricades to prevent protesters from gaining entry. opinion polls indicates the vast majority of georgia and still want to join the b. u and georgia . dream says it intends to do that one day. but for the moment, the divide between the government and the georgian peoples aspirations looks set to grow wider. the update of the correspondent maria, cut them up as it is covering the protest in timberly c. c told my colleagues nicole for like if this was the end of the line for georgias, you ambitions as well. so it's important to mention that the elections more popularly recognized by space like hungry china, neighboring states, armenia as or by john. but it doesn't receive any west of recognition as for now, the us something in the fox finding mission and the definitely georgians and

government still wants to have this sort of less than a recognition. otherwise, it will be very isolated, which doesn't seem to be a popular idea with the, you know, among many george's so it depends whether the position on the president on civil society groups. and the protesters will be able to pressure the government small to challenge those election results and to, you know, to call for new elections, which at this point seems a bit unrealistic. if we look at the stance of the government, besides that, they will a fair and square that the victory is on contestable state deputies. now the cut them up to the into police force. right? is what else is it as conducted? and a struck on his blow out with an storage in southern living on the 5th, since the tourist agreed between the 2 sides coming to force 2 days ago. several people of also have been wounded, biased by the tank 5 in the area under the agreement, has bluff audits are supposed to withdrawal north of the latan

a river and is rarely forces. i mean, to return to the side of the board these where the army has announced the curfew. forbidding people from traveling south of the river of a nice now the safe spot was a great to last 60 days, but on the 2 dies in both sides. are accusing each other of my license on the christine oven. i lived on enlist at the london school of economics, told us how optimistic she is about the truce as well. let's say i'm still cautiously optimistic, but it has to be set. so even though the parties have agreed to cease for, they don't necessarily agree about the details of implementation that they, especially don't agree about what's happening on the ground right now. and this is something that will very likely cause friction. so sort of the coming weeks and the question is how people restrictions be, will they be so big that they threaten a piece by itself? outside of christine over in russia has launched

a new wife affair tax on your credits energy grid. the credit, let's say is it is in retaliation for keeps use of long range width and miss off the latest russian assault and with more than a 1000000 new ukrainians without pallet ross, as president vladimir putting us, threatening to more strikes using a new hot pacific missile fives, the 1st time. last week. these powered by generators after russia struck key energy infrastructure, leaving a 1000000 residents in western ukraine without power. while a generator keeps things running at this bar, there are concerns. moscow will once again ramp up the tax on key facilities as the winter sets in the codes. i don't think there will be any blackouts, but we'll see. life is complicated. anything could happen, and i hope they wouldn't be a situation like in previous use when powell was out for

a very long time. i think it will be easy and now power and water cuts also hit other parts of you cream. the salt also targeted odessa damaging several residential buildings. the sun you literally debris was falling on my head, but i threw it all on the floor. oh, dear one brick even hit me directly in the face. all this, the kremlin size is retaliation after you crane hit targets inside russian territory. with us, the new k made long range missiles president flooded. mir putin is now threatening to launch new hypersonic missiles at keys and elsewhere in ukraine. no, it's not you to imitate when you put in it for significant target and so we will use those means that are at our disposal. yeah. but from sort of because of the screen,

we do not reality use of our dish. nick missiles against the military, the military industrial facilities for the victim of a new promotion to city or decision making center, executive sure, including and key of if keystone keys is urging the international community to react to the threats. and we expect those countries that have fear it's everyone to i'm a very expanding of the war to react to the statements waste by putting today or it is very important if we, if we are treated fairly and these are the statements, these blackmail is the expense on the floor and the threats of extension or for unacceptable. ukraine says it's all the more reason for allies to ensure faster military aid. columbia navy has seized more than 1400 tons of

narcotics in a multi national operation offer on covering any cross pacific traffic in birds. the whole includes cocaine, marijuana, and methamphetamines. among the seized vessels used by the drug traffic is with 6. sammie said most symbols intercepted in the pacific ocean vessels were carrying 5 tons of cocaine, distance of the striving, black market. international operation to catch the traffic is included the united states spine and 60 other countries. speaking of the present, a columbia and naval officer described the scale of the drug station goodness to think of the seas. this has impacted the finance of transmission to the crime organizations to be preventing them from receiving $8.00 trillion dollars be joining. we also manage to prevent the potential of production of 29 tons of cocaine by destroying 475 laboratories. the quote was here thought that the single hour thought is internalised origin. mccolan bogota told me more about the

operation. thank you very much. 2 like you said, 62 nations involved in this uh, naval operation. it has to be an offer is cooperation or ryan. it has been in existence since 2017 and has been continually growing diesel operations of 6 weeks and left the captions have right lead to full 100 arrest. 6, uh, something marie, it is a series of muscles capture fast, huge hold of cocaine and other drugs. and of course it's, it's really so relevant in it and such, any passive intelligence sharing network coming together from a lease on the armed forces from all over the world. which is, do we know how far he's well able to pull off such a massive operation or?

well, it's been a good time. i may have obviously brought a non state actors as well. the royal institute has been in that they've been mapping where they captured naco sobs or send me some muscles before they'd be mastering where they're going. and what has been very, very evident, because obviously these, these vehicles, the 70s advisable, don't travel on the routine, the, please areas they go through areas of the ocean that are not in mainstream shipping routes. so i would say foss areas to cover, but over time, having the roots that these uh these uh where they quote these uh, so bicycles. and so like being able to put together a rates or plan of action. and of course, infiltrate groups across the region to find out how this is happening, where it's going on. and obviously how to capture it looks like the drug gigs involved. and richard were using drugs and small submarines to,

to smuggle to drugs. it makes the question how sophisticated they smugglers getting i was that somebody yes, and i know i'm so this one, the house become more sophisticated in the engineering and then the building of the . busy piece of muscles previously the, some use of muscles would only be able to say on website just below the surface and it would just be a tube pointing out of the oxygen. and of course, the, a gasoline or diesel would blow out the backend, and they would hook the coastline, going north up to central america, where the drugs would then be offloaded into sort of unmarked areas or onto the boat. so fast sites. but what we see now, of course, is the boat's, it's bigger, say i have a crew of around 3. there's usually an engineer, a captain and verify from the cops out to make sure that the drugs actually make their destination. and of course they, they do have gps,

they still stay only just the. busy the surface, but they are able to travel up to 10000 miles without refueling. but at the same time, there are other elements that have come in to allow this level of co operation between different criminal groups. let's say it's a reorganized crime if you like. since 2016, that's been a fragmentation of the drug stripe. i'm groups based in different countries, ecuador, peru, felicia. busy colombia and mexico have worked together on different segments of the transportation and facilitation of the movement of drugs. generalist richard mccaul in bogota. thanks so much. i now have you ever dreamed of visiting greenland pristine fjords? now it's even easier than ever. as the island has opened its 1st runaway suitable for lodge passenger planes,
