service, something ultraorthodox parties would never agree to. the dashed result was a deadlock. fingeran pointed the right at netanyahu. the failurere to form a coalition of government, together we turn to the ultraorthodox. we bear full responsibility for the fact that israel is voting again. >> the reelection could be a real headache for the prime minister, who faces a pretrial hearing against charges of corruption in october. the party was drafting legislation for impunity. netanyahu vowed to win a second set of elections in september but even if he does, it will be too late to change the law. >> the opposition says that the two day strike to demand the ruling generals hand over power to a civilian authority has worked. protesters, including workers at tanks, government offices, and

of federal rules. take a listen. >> the order appointing we special counsel authorized us to investigate actions that could obstruct the investigation. we conducted that investigation and we kept the office of the acting attorney general appraised of the progress of our work. as set forth in the report, after that investigation, if we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so. >> the u.s. president was quick to react to the statement from robert mueller, putting out a tweet saying that the case is closed. for more on the wednesday statement, we have this report from washington. time inwas the f first two years, the first time during the whole russia investigation that we actually heard the voice of robert mueller. also the only time that we will probably see him speaking in public about the investigation. so, this was supposed to bring us a sense of closure, but it certainly did not.

still wildly differing views as to what the real conclusions are from this investigation. the conclusions from the special counsel are that yes, indeed ththere was no collusion between russia and the trump but the question remains open as to whether there was a obstruction of justice by the president, though, and the whwhite house, still believe in their initial conclusion that there was no collusion and that the president completely exonerated. certainly not something we heard from the special counsel robert mueller during his eight minute long appearance. now we move to a different scenario altogether, the possibility of an impeachment of a president. it still seems very unlikely that it might come to that, only just about over 50 democrats willing to go down that road. no where a majority in the house of representatives. certainly only there isn't a democratic majority that would like to do this in the u.s.

senate, the body that would decide the fate of the president . remember that the senate is controlled by republicans. that is why somebody like the speaker of the house of representatives nancy pelosi is very reluctant to go down that path. add to the story the following ingredient, the white house might actually want impmpeachmet proceengs s to happepen. it would g give the presididente possibility to further criticize democrats as a party that simply will not let go of the russia story as both democrats and republicans head towards the 2020 presidential election. so, no closure from the special counsel robert mueller. in fact, we are just moving on to the next stage in this story. >> we are going to go back to new delhi, next, trias is standing by. earlier we were talking>> we art
