or you're a sweet thing for us. and then when generation industry is kind of fun, it feels like there is a w e news life from land. syrian rebels push south towards the key city of homes. couple of forces scrambling to slow with the advance of the insurgents capture of both towns and territory in their quest to talk with prizes as a site also. and the program for maybe is top quote. and those the results of the 1st round of the countries presidential election. the governments accused his moscow of netflix after a surprise when for a pro crumb and confident european union seals, a historic south american trade deal, commission president, i should've a funds in line and calls that hopefully. and when

a french farmers think they're losing the, i'm feel welcome to the program. is miss rebels in syria heading for the central city of homes. as i sees more territory from government forces footage circulating on social media appears to show them advancing on serious the largest city having taken a less and how much since the one thing that surprised defensive. basically, taking homes would bring them a step closer to seizing the capital, damascus. just a fly. the man and william bell drives for the curtis done chronicle in at bill. i asked him how close rebel forces to taking homes as well, according to the latest report as they are the syndicates and also the syrian

government, the forces they have to choose from the city. so it seems that it's a matter of time before to take it off. on the other hand, soon, the machine has also resumed forces from other provinces, through strength, or during the fast isn't the most cars and also in goals. so we have to see how to go about it most likely. is that the gonna take the time? so as far as homes is concerned, as far as we know, they states that meeting no resistance. exactly. according to the reports, the syrian government army is crumbling. they were drawing from are drawing from many points not only from last, but also from other thousands like forces that result and it seems the gun at some point the rebel is going to be to the most because it's what the, the rebels won't be on over throwing president a side, i mean, well, they want the rebels. i mean at the bottom it says best when we talk about we

travels about if you talk about the rentals, like there was an interview by the leader of the h. d, as in july the it was seen as where he talked about doubling the government, but also establishing local causes and a new administration system. so what the rebels want this line to establish a new system. but i'm not sure if it's going to be a democratic system lucky or for the elections and everything so far as stop. there's no clarity on that. so we have to see how it's going to work. because in practice, the rebels that have been watching on damascus and other cities in their own areas that they control. they have their own local administration, but it's like an as long as the rules. so you can sort of compare as maybe to the thought about are other groups somebody's backgrounds. like now you, you mentioned the safety of data out was all about a different fight in a separate pots of syria. that's assuming encouraging rebels. who about taken about 60, just explain to us that why they're l 0 a strategically important so what happens is that the sewing machine

forces intervention back in the show, withdrew from there. so they're pretty slots here and democratic forces they move into that as are, that is always very important because it's sort of a language for a reading and back malicious to go from iraq to syria and just support us here in government. so if they lose this important province, they will not have access anymore. and also the soon democratic forces are backed by us. so it's on lot, okay, that they all of those munitions to use this programs to support us in resumes. so it will be another blow against us here and redeem control and syria. ok, thanks. that's all this or that, that's not an assignment. i found a building back from the car this time chronicle. it's a to romania where the constitutional court has a know the results of last month's presidential elections. citing version of interference of this comes just days after romanian or fire safety classified documents that alleged

a co ordinated online russian campaign to promote the 5 right confident calling georgia ask if one of the 1st round of voting an upcoming run of votes has been cancelled and the court has ordered the election to be bring run, and remaining is current to present the class you have is assessed, the country will remain southerly. pro data approach in here is to him, ends on the 21st of december, but he'll now stay on until a new president is elect on there. got it. so let's get more from the john unless the matcher bob the who's in the remaining capital, bucharest of welcome to the w. so let's start with the court's decision. tell us more about that slow. see a court decision was 1st and foremost shocking. if i there to states for most romanians and then confusing for a lot of the people or actually voting in the diaspora as we speak, the boat just ended the abrupt of leaf abruptly,

but they were voting when the news hit, the wireless. the decision comes off the previous decision when the constitutional court actually validated the results were the 1st store of presidential elections in romania. but given the lights of the intelligence service documents that were declassified by president your hobbies, just a couple of days ago, these judges of custom of court decided today that there was enough evidence to cancel the election and ordered the electoral bureau to re do the whole process and that might take a while according to our sources, and the earliest that he will be possible according to the legislation, but also to the process that this needs to go through would possibly be march next spring. ok. so the rub off was due to happen this weekend on

sunday. the other candidates in the runoff is elena last go need from the centrist save romania union party will hear her reaction to the court's decision. and then come back to you after this, the moment this is the moment when the romanian state trampled on democracy, who miss god? truth was she the romanian people and the law will prevail as it is stupid at them? it's not about me. the economy is collapsing, you are destroying democracy. you are leading the country into anarchy. butcher sought out. we should have gone ahead with a vote. i think that we so many should have respected the will of the romanian people. respect them during a micha. why is elena alaska any objection to base the election being re run after she was beaten? it was a p as not to have being a firefight as well because the loss has change filled in romania in the past week. now let's go. he has conducted a campaign where she was her electorate,

that russia might be a middling interfering in our election, sienna mirand, romania, and a lot of boulders that were on the site, especially the social democrats, both as a much of sherlock loss. the elections of the a, just the natural for about 2000, both 2400 boats up beside the to actually support the and i'll ask on you. so she had a fair chance with these elect shows, based on the genuine concerns of romanians who thought that the georgia calling georgia school the candidate to death trigger old this uh, breaking news story, and romania to day might of last the elections based on this genuine concern and fear, all of of people and again of the declassified documents from the romanian, intelligent service, alleged that a state sponsored a campaign online, especially on tick tock for callings. okay. school,

we're talking millions of euros that were put into this. okay, so basically from what you said, it sounds like these allegations actually benefited to politically, i'd quit what then on, on the public reaction to these obligations of foreign interference. so i'm actually sunday in the middle, bucharest, the on my right, there's a christmas mark and i just spoke with a few people. most of them said that they're concerned about the allegations and the rocks using their peers in election. but i also say that the process, the voting should have went ahead and we should have had a vote on sunday. so that way we can almost the russian place, you know, don't democratic, wait. okay, thank you for that very interesting turn list. i'm not bothered in bucharest. let's take a look now. it's the most doors making headlines. this off in india, police of use t, a gas to break up a protest. bice tom is attempting to most of the capital new data. they've been

pressurizing of a government to guarantee minimum prices for that crowd zone to provide grace of state simple suited russia and by the rules of cyber security impact that brings by the recent moscow is new to grow us. and we said for allowing rushed to deploy the tactical nuclear weapons that russian president vladimir putin on beller assembly. that alexander looked to shank, signed the treaty at the meeting in minsk. i'm still looking for that goal so asked that present project to deploy intermediate ranged ballistic myself in his country to put arthritis. 5 ministers blamed anti semitism for an awesome attack at a melvin synagogue. and the album, a society was aimed at closing fia, the 5 course extensive damage in police, searching for the 2 suspects has been an increase in targeted attacks in australia since the will in cost of the soft career where i present you. and so

p o will face on the page, but if it's on the side today follow in case of failed attempt to impose marshall opposition. lawmakers have called for the votes as even the president's party lead to the classroom to be dangerous and culture and restrictive office. east age of correspondent james checked their reports from so he may be don't sing for this. incessantly, no policies for presidents and so killed outside south korea's developments on fridays move fury as the crisis engulfing deep men visit the president's own policy and now cooling for him to be suspended. and made room is he could impose motional for a 2nd time. the president's office to no idea on negations, as the acting defense. many says, trying to reassure citizens owner or don't. you guys are claimants regarding the possibility of a 2nd period of marshal raised earlier this morning,

are completely false. even if at all, demands for a declaration of marshal the ministry of defense and the joint chiefs of staff will absolutely reject them. despite the fallout from the bulk is spreading. so those we didn't even set periods to find the ministry of now been suspended as a result of it. so would be for the national assembly involving in size and then making today the cable installed until june. so he went to and came to the national assembly. the nights motioning was imposed and every day since she cooled on using policy to remove him inside today's impeachment vote. they need to think, watch whites, and i think they know what, what they have to do the cause huge scale and that affected

all, all the korean citizens. so he needs to need to all can use to pay for what he did . the full need are south korea's main opposition policy address to protest is counseling we hope that you will join us in protecting democracy and presenting the global crisis of democracy in korea to his belly, been seen in public since imposing motion for doug. one stop these processes from making sure that every, since i took a show and international mediators in a sample have reported late resume talks aimed at achieving a cx, 5 between israel and the medicine group, hamas in gaza, gaza civil defense agency says 29 people. that's been killed strangely strikes the

major hospital. the northern city did not hear her, says val reactivating efforts to end the fighting and a pushing for a deal that would save the release if it's ready. hostages from casa, and palestinian prisoners in israel. meanwhile, and israel, a prime minister benjamin netanyahu, whose under increasing pressure to find the way to end the 14 month conflict and bring the remaining hostages home in silence by protest for the hostages without some voice. 101 still held captive in gulf. don't play how many of them often alive and time is running out ever since the terror attack on october 7th, last year. these protesters have the same demand and the hondo seem a smaller demand has been the same it since day one. and that has to work toward a deal to make a deal that will bring all the hostages home, or the hostage deal comes with the price for as row. and the last negotiations that

sold a most amount at the release of a large number of palestinians health and is ready, prisons, history shows. israel has been prepared to pay a high price to get hostages back in 2000. and 11. 1 is randy salyers are called you not sure. he was released of to 5 years in captivity, and garza in return for over a 1000 palestinians, held in prison, including him off leader jeffrey austin. war 2 went on to upon the october 7 turbo tax pointing back to deals like these. some of the governments, the prize this time is too high. including fall, right? national security minister to come up and be made as stones clear and an interview with the army radio issues come, i believe that a reckless deal that will release a 1000 seems more like terrorist and the war is a serious blow to the state of israel. even the survey suggest the

majority of his room is one to hostage steel now. and his own convent resonates with many of the most of the respondents to you, the day that he's being pulled on the table. but by from us is the, the risky from the point of view of the says, the strategic positioning of the price that the is demanded is much too high to, to pay, taking into consideration the, it's, the security is not going to, we will pay with more lives in the future. but for those whose loved ones are still held hostage and golf or whatever it takes to reach a deal is worth it, the village we will have to pay a price. there is no choice and deliver in no price is too high for those innocent souls that have been garza simply no price is too high until the deal has reached

the pain of not knowing when or if they'll ever see the hostages released drugs on here in germany, john, so that all i've shown say is facing a confidence vote in 10 days time. if you lose it, as he's expected to then jump, they will hold elections in february to choose a new parliament. political parties are getting ready and studying the opinion polls. so he has a look at the latest survey from a all the info test i think makes depressing reading for the chancellor, the opposition, a conservative cd. you see a few blocks on 32 percent far i've asked the policy would likely achieve 18 percent. chancellor schultz is the social democrats, a 3rd of them, but they only went around 16 percent of the vote on present showing coalition upon the greens there on 14 percent a new policy, the b s. w would make it into parliament. it's pulling at 5 percent with

a blend of left leading economic policy is conservative migration and russia friendly foreign policy initiatives. and the business of friendly and liberal f d paint, which is also currently in government wouldn't get enough votes to be represented should say, which was in government, wouldn't get enough votes to be represented in the book to stop at the left posit would have failed to reach the 5 percent huddled to score a place and parliament, but could still be represented by 3 directly elected candidates based remains unclear for now. someone who can clarify so much of this is a political correspondence assignment the young welcome simon. just this is just one poll, but chancellor shelves, a social democrats do seem to be doing a very badly as you already lost this election. a sale. uh, yeah, this pole is in line with all the polls and uh, you know, the numbers are pretty bad for, uh, the, the chance of the social democrats,

a way behind the conservatives. and it's not surprising, given how unpopular i've sold this government has been, you know, he's got to make up 16 points to, to come level with the conservatives at the moment on 32 points. so it's a long way to go. but the poems do show that around a 3rd of bunk does have yet made up their mind. so that could be good news. and there's also have been a slight uptake for shots, his social democrats, since he effectively took the decision to sort of, uh, dissolve that unpopular a 3 policy coalition government. the policy is s b d say, you know, shows is a great campaign to the part the machine is really strong and effective. and don't forget, it isn't all about the leader in german politics is about the policies and what coalitions can ultimately may be made. it's still, it's possible i feel it's cool to end up as the leader of some kind of left leading coalition. but at the moment it looks like a big reach. okay. feeling that of the c d. you see the, you,

i the moment looking like community to be that the biggest punch in the book, just talk a, tell us more about this man who could be germany's next. johnson a a fitness match is a very well known figure. range of the politics. he's been around since the 19 ninety's. he had high ambitions even back then, but he was sort of blogs and now states from east paul 5 at one angle, a miracle. and he went off into business, became a very wealthy in the financial industry. and that would be if it comes down to the probably the richest person to have it. so hold that office. what does the stand for? well, you know, he's a, somebody who thinks that the big changes in the, to free up a business. that's what he keeps talking about is a bit vague, but he wants to change the laws that he's a fan of jim is debt, right? the limits on, on borrowing part of one of the reasons that to pop the previous government. i

think on foreign policy, he'll be wanting to be close to the u. s. cycle mainstream jim and politicians. but he also wants to show donald trump. he says that europe can have its own ideas and have its own strong positions in the world on time. it will take a look now at some of the figures from this pull them and come back to a post as i've asked people what they see as the biggest challenges facing germany . 45 percent c, v. economy is the biggest problem. so the 8 percent points move in just a month ago. migration is next week, 23 percent and the fear of what is it? 18 percent. the big news is in this environmental protection and climate change. only 12 percent of german focus still see environmental protection. and climate change as the most pressing problem when it used to be the main issue. so simon, go the economy clearly the most important, the issue for the germans in these coming elections as yeah, i is really

a striking change compared to the last election in 2021. when climate was the top issue of concern for many voters. now it's the economy, the reason is pretty clear. the german economy is filtering ever more clearly at a particular it's, it's hot, really the car industry which has got problems and i call and make cause even jeremy, a talking about laying off workers about closing down plots. there are problems more widely ways the investment, both public and private, the o e. c. d is saying that the germany has the weakest growth of any industrialized economy and is predicting a very low growth for the coming year. and germans know that, you know, if the manufacturing and engineering industries owns is profitable is by once. well, that will have effect an effect total areas of policy, whether it's defense,

whether it's transport, whether it's education and so on, that it will it what it means, difficult decisions for any government issues over the budget. one of the big things that caused headaches for the previous previous government caused it to fall apart. that will still be true. those problems will still be there. whoever comes in, often february's election, verifying the assignment date of the political correspondence. i'm in. yeah. a video to fan union and south america's america. so a block has concluded a large scale free trade agreement task more than 20 years of negotiations. they will call us for 90 percent of existing tyrus between the 2 sides to be dropped. the pharmacy in front of poland fit, but they couldn't read habits out on the industry with cheaper products from south america on the cutting prices. that law being a games, but the which needs to be ratified by at least 50 nothing used 27 countries
