the u.n. security council overwhelmingly backs a resolution rejecting donald trump's decision to recognize to reduce limits the capital of israel but the resolution is vetoed by the us. there are multiple fatalities reported as an amtrak train derails from a bridge onto a highway in the state of washington. protesters take to the streets of the austrian capital vienna after a far right party takes key positions in the new coalition government.

midnight's here in moscow now my name is neil harvey this is art international u.s. ambassador to the u.n. has vetoed a draft resolution rejecting decision to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel all fourteen other members voted for the resolution details. u.n. security council was called to a meeting by egypt's now egypt to put forward a resolution that essentially intended to give legitimacy to all the outrage that has taken place around the world sense donald trump and the united states recognize jerusalem as israel's capital and move the u.s. embassy to that city and now says this is happened there have been protests all over the world against it there was a meeting of fifty seven different muslim countries that assembled to condemn the decision and we then heard from egypt on the floor of the u.n. security council condemning the actions that were taken by the united states because with of jerusalem is one of the issues there must be settled through

peaceful negotiation between the palestinians and the israelis and yet some to changing facts on the ground in jerusalem is considered an illegal unilateral measure and will have new legal impact since it goes against international law now what made the meeting unique was not only did we hear normal critics of the united states condemning the decision but we also heard you know western european allies of the u.s. nato states condemning this action by the united states and boldly disagreeing with the usa for what took place so this is actually the u.n. ambassador of france but only if you remove it from the region caused by the december sixth announcement and the way it can be interpreted these effects must be avoided we cool and all regional polluters to help calm the situation. now nikki haley the u.s. ambassador took to the floor and she defended the actions by the united states the

united states has been the primary supporter of israel and when she spoke she said that the united nations should be ashamed of this proposal that was put forward she was ashamed of the vote which had taken place she accused the united nations of not being supportive of israel of being anti israel and she was harshly critical of the international community for the proposed resolution what we witnessed here today in the security council is an insult it won't be forgotten it's one more example of the united nations doing more harm than good in addressing the israeli palestinian conflict now in response to the united states we have seen a statement from the palestinian authority the palestinian authority has accused the united states of essentially mocking the international community with their decision to move their embassy and recognize jerusalem as israel's capital and now at this point even though fourteen members of the u.n. security council supported this resolution this single vote from the united states caused it to be vetoed and prevented the resolution from passing the entire chamber

was united against a single member of the united states voting for a resolution following monday's session at the united nations these really president praised the american veto he says nikki haley quote little kumble of truth and dispel the doggedness. move to recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel continues to cause widespread anger in the middle east i i i i. palestinians have been involved in protests and clashes with israeli forces for almost two weeks that follows trucks decision to end u.s. neutrality on what is one of the most complex issues in the region both palestinians and israelis laying claim to the ancient city move as being followed by a wave of condemnation from european and muslim leaders. we spoke to experts based

in both israel and palestine about the u.s. fighter. i've been surprised that so many countries have decided that instead of taking the palestinians to the security council to discuss why they decided to react the troops announcement by firing rockets at israeli kindergartens instead they've decided to take israel to the security council what they should be doing is encouraging the palestinian leadership to return to the negotiating table where donald trump in his announcement did not rule out whatsoever there being a pastor in capital in east jerusalem he's just reflected the reality that for three thousand years jerusalem has been israel's capital it can still happen violence is not the way to bring it about though there's no surprises this is a very much expected the united states was expected to come up with this veto but none of that is it's very significant and assuring that the rest of the world. is asserting the fact that this american decision is illegal and that is a dramatic change that is happening there all of the united states views of the the

middle east and particularly the israeli palestinian conflict in the history of this process the americans were told by a. list since that of to the international legality which was a major structural defect in this peace process that isn't of this is that we are witnessing the end of the role of the united states as a sponsor of through this process which is i think a very dramatic and a very important setback for the american middle east policy. there are quote multiple fatalities incurred after an amtrak train derailed from a bridge over interstate five a major commuter highway in peace county washington state part of the train was left dangling from the bridge and passenger cars fell into the highway the details these artists mirror can't. an amtrak train has derailed from a bridge onto a major highway just forty miles south of seattle washington now the drill train

hit vehicles on the highway and multiple fatalities have been reported a spokesperson for local authorities commented and here's what he had to say right now we know that we have more. people that were able to undergo students being cared for by multiple groups damage to the bridge damage to multiple vehicles down. to the ground around it now amtrak confirmed that there were seventy eight passengers and five a crew members aboard and the train departed from tacoma shortly after eight am in the drill meant occurred during rush hour which is possibly the worst time that this could happen according to the washington transportation to new service that only launched a small new service that only launched a small pointed defiance bypass project was intended to quote improve passenger train reliability and reduce congestion by rerouting trains to an inland route prior to that trains were forced to slow down due to curves and single track

tunnels now the governor of washington said that it was a ongoing and serious situation and has even declared a state of emergency in the counties affected. protesters of come out in the austrian capital vienna after a far right party joined the new coalition government all the new government was being sworn in the historic palace. and the left wing activists protested outside police presence stopped the demonstrators from entering the building protesters demolishing through the streets carrying placards say don't let these govern a major concern for them is the key state positions have been given to the freedom party it will take on the former interior and defense ministries as well as the vice chancellor ship.

there's been widespread condemnation of this agreement across many european media outlets lots of fears that this will lead to the the far right side of that coalition having more and more say over politics in austria but we can look at what the well the coalition of put out themselves of what they say their policies will be we can expect that they'll be an increase in direct democracy along the switch small of putting big votes to the people in order to get their opinions on which direction the country goes in next but one decision that won't be put into the people's hands like that it's been confirmed that austria has no intention on holding in a brags that s.k.u. referendum any time soon we can also expect tougher immigration control we could also expect the austrian government to push for an end to turkey's accession to the

talks we can also expect to see this austrian government pushing more for an end to e.u. sanctions against moscow. regarding the sanctions against russia yes we would like for those to be lifted and we will try to play a part in this is a mediator to find a solution in the interests of yours so europe and russia can overcome the differences when you talk to people on the streets of vienna opinion still very split over the direction the country is headed in though i think things. i think we have sinned as before it was triumphant broxton england and i think that i was freshly taking it and i really don't think it's good when it went. throughout europe as a return to the far right as you can see this in germany. as world with the f.t. got a lot of votes and if someone speaks about the refugee crisis you get the impression that this could have been handled better. on the good norman i think the far right

are correct they're working for the people doing what people who wants them to do so i'm in favor i am happy with the situation well twenty seventeen hour see in the far right rise to prominence in european politics if we look right at the beginning of the year of course we saw builders pushing hard for the the dutch prime ministerial race and there are elections there we also saw a marine in the number one challenger to elections where is here in germany where i'm talking to you from the time in the bundestag in truck with the far right the fact that it had to go into coalition with the with the austrian freedom party has seen him heavily criticized. german political scientists believe the e.u. will have to reconcile itself to austria's new coalition. west european governments won't take any significant actions against this new or strong government because on

the one hand writing populism has been growing in all these countries in the self-confidence of europe centrist leftist government has been shattered by this rise of right wing populism and on the other hand the former coalition between the p. and the. did not hard to europe nor to austria nor were there any policies taken which are contradictions store humanitarian and rule of law standards in the european union fearful european governments don't see any reason for horse restrictions and even central to right now. russia and china are the main challenges the us global had germany that's according to the new national security strategy unveiled by president donald trump the document also presents the white house if you want everything from the economy to nuclear defense this

strategy recognizes that whether we like it or not we are engaged in a new era of competition we also face rival powers russia and china that seek to challenge american influence values and wealth. the document strongly criticizes moscow and its international policies in particular it claims that russia uses technology propaganda and coercion in an attempt to shape or will fundamentally opposed to america's interests. now in a speech announcing the new strategy to nevertheless said that the u.s. aims to build a partnership with russia and china as an example he cited recent intelligence cooperation between washington and moscow we've helped to prevent a series of terrorist attacks in russia and so noble of the emir putin called to thank him and the cia. u.s.

president said that he and the in tire american intelligence community were pleased that they could help to save lives and he does also agreed this was a positive example of the countries working together. we discussed on trump's new national security plan with strategy and this gregory copley he believes that political pressure is keeping russia among the perceived threats national security a paper reemphasize russia strategic threat well unfortunately yes it will largely because of the media and opposition pressure which which has always claimed that he did a deal with moscow in order to help his election campaign so he has to appear to be sure to even handedly against russia and to raise russia rosé potential adversary once again yes there are points of difference between the united states and russia

but the reality is that as i said the president trump will need to and does want to work with moscow on some global issues particularly the middle east but most importantly against the people's republic of china. russia is back to the cold war era hostility towards the west that's according to the british foreign secretary boris johnson and he's in speaking ahead of this week's meeting with his russian counterpart sergey lavrov in moscow with more his and see a chicken. the head of this first visit by a u.k. foreign minister to russia in five years johnson has certainly been making some curious comments in his typical manner for starters he has drawn some comparisons between russia and sparta i was reading few city's history of the political war it was obvious to me that athens and its democracy its openness its culture and civilization was the analog of united states and the west russia for me was closed

no militaristic and democratic like spots are well worth it johnson has also said that russia has not been so hostile to the u.k. or western interests since the end of the cold war and quote now was speaking to the sunday times on the oh so popular issue of russian meddling he said again that he see no evidence of russian influence when it comes to the bracks that referendum if you remember in the past has even used the words not a sausage of evidence but he has said that there is some evidence that there has been russian trolling on facebook this might be in reference to some of the numbers released by facebook that have said that only two hundred people in britain had seen any adverts which cost just over seventy p. these numbers are certainly quite curious given all the endless talk about this alleged russian meddling and facebook influence when it came to that referendum now also ahead of this visit it's curious that some apparently here toward end of

influence to not let boris johnson get enough sleep things like honey traps why beautiful kremlin agents as well as maybe his phones being hacked or bugged he's also been warning to stay away from any drinking games and has been letting boris johnson to be weary of being alone in an elevator and making faces so that this doesn't get used against by u.s. president on the travel can bring in political experts and gina lauder now coming from still on the line. how does this document than do you think square up with the troops claims he's not interested in meddling with the affairs of other countries. i think that that remains true i think that everything that the president has said regarding other countries has been pretty consistent through the course of his campaign and up until now he had her stance that when america is strong the rest of the nation and the rest of the world are more secure economically and also in terms

of national security for all countries and so so that's that's the goal here that's been his stated goal throughout the campaign and i don't believe that's changed now what about the cloning that's my russia and china trying to show the world that opposed to the interests of the u.s. students for. i think that the president doesn't have interest in telling other countries how to do their business he has interest in making sure that america is treated fairly on the world stage which in the past as you know it hasn't been when america is doing well america being the most charitable nation in the entire world then the rest of the country is automatically going to do well also and i think that's the point that he's trying to make through his sort of combining at least logistically economic and national security i mean is a point though isn't it indeed would you say the same with the u.s.

shouldn't every country be putting it you know its own interests first. i think every country does every other country that i know of has some sort of border security for example the united states has none we have illegal people pouring over our borders that want to kill us that is unlike any other country in the world i think that other countries do a much better job of making sure for example that they have fair trade for their country and that they don't give aid to countries that want to kill them america in the last eight years under the obama regime has had a completely different. approach to everything economic and national security and so most americans look at this and they're just glad to have a president back who does put his own country first yes i think it's normal for every president to put their own country first but this president at least obama didn't do that it seems to most americans and so most are glad that president trump is doing that. the key thing is how is this going to impart relations between

russia and the united states which would be sort of delicate delicate the bonus as well of late and could really go either way. it's about respect and i would say that the leaders that are strong leaders like that in russia and like that in china they respect another strong leader a lot more than they respect someone who can't even show up with the reset button spelled correctly to most americans this has been a joke over the last eight years to say that somehow america america's leader bowing to foreign leaders for example or aiding terrorists countries or you know not even having any relationship with other countries other than to tell them how bad america is that is not the job of the american president this president president understands that he wants to restore the strength of the international respect of leaders around the world that he also respects any wants to work with them respectfully i think that most people could go along with that plan jeanne

a pleasure to speak to appreciate you coming on our tree my guest political expert author jean a lot of things to always a pleasure. to talk going to work three people are almost thirty more injured after a car bomb attack twelve of the wounded soldiers one of those killed was a security officer as according to local officials no group has yet claimed responsibility for the attack with southwest of the country earlier on monday islamic states global instability for an attack on an afghan intelligence training center in kabul militants stormed a partially constructed building the complex triggering intense fighting with security forces journalist below also worry has more. one car bomb has exploded there's another wonder the attackers that brought in with them it's quite an embarrassment to say the least because these areas should be protected these are

areas where afghan intelligence trains its members in new recruits and next to it is another facility that starts with providing security to other installations in kabul in all across the country what we see these days is that militants or targeting kabul in other major cities which is almost new front line for them in the last few months we've also seen americans in other nato countries pounding board. as well as taliban positions and afghan special forces have been carrying out regular operations it could be a retaliation but certainly what we see more and more the afghan government in its international law is failed to prevent these attacks from taking place in kabul. was below mentioned islamic state recently carried out

a number of attacks in the region on sunday i saw militants killed nine people in neighboring pakistan last month two died after an islamic state attack on a car built t.v. station and later the seventy two people were killed by islamists in two separate afghan mosque attacks during friday prayers. the son of former libyan leader moammar gadhafi is planning a political comeback called into family spokesperson saif al islam gadhafi will run for president in the country's election next year the second of gadhafi ten children saif was one of the most powerful figures during the rule of his father who was brutally killed by western backed insurgents in two thousand and eleven so i faced the death penalty for crimes against humanity during the uprising but was released after six years in jail. the announcements are expected to kick start the presidential race in libya on sunday protesters came out in favor of another

potential candidate national army commander khalifa haftar and this comes in the wake of large scale turmoil witnessed in libya since the two thousand and eleven war and the arrest simply shows no sign of stopping.

or you can bust attitude libya oliver miles told us that with so many rival groups fighting inside the country elections could actually make the situation worse nobody knows whether there will be an election the u.n. representative gave an interview a couple of weeks ago in which he said he hoped that conditions would be suitable for an action but it's by no means clear what they will there are several different claims claimants to be government none of them has been absolutely clear claim because none of them has control over the whole territory and that situation means that an election are wouldn't really make any sense to make things work at afi and when his father was still. in charge in libya had some success in getting the attention and even admiration and support from the.
