security but the resolution isn't. the us some to recognize it's one more example. collating the conflict and make fact that this veto is being done for us it should be an embarrassment to the remainder of this year the latest developments in the jerusalem crisis and how the draft resolution that essentially intended to give legitimacy to all the has 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 as one of the issues the must be settled through peaceful negotiation between the palace and the israelis and the changing facts on the ground in jerusalem is considered an illegal unilateral measure that will have no

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.s. ambassador of france also on that as you know there are negative effects on the region caused by the december sixth announcement and the way it can be interpreted these effects must be avoided we call on all regional players 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 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 sensually mocking the international community 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 the 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 all following monday's session at the u.n. the israeli president praised the american veto he says nikki haley quote a candle of truth and dispelled the darkness james may have to recognize to resign with israel's capital has provoked sustained and widespread outcry.

palestinians have been involved in protests clashes with israeli forces for almost two weeks the united states decision to end its neutrality on the status of the disputed city has also a trick of mass protests in other countries including indonesia and it is being met with condemnation from european and muslim leaders to we spoke to experts based in both israel and palestine about the u.s. veto. 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 were 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 there's no surprises this is very much expected the united states was expected to come up with this veto but none of that is it's very significant shorting that the rest of the world. is asserting the fact that this american decision is illegal that is a dramatic change that is happening there all of the united states of use of either middle east and particularly the israeli palestinian conflict in the history of this process the americans were too biased and less 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 through this process which is i think a very dramatic and

a very important setback for the american middle east policy. multiple fatalities have been reported after an amtrak train derailed from a bridge over interstate five and made to commute the highway in pierce county washington state part of the train has left it dangling from the bridge and passenger cars fell onto the highway samir khan has the details. 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. four. groups damaged the bridge. vehicles down. to the ground around amtrak confirmed that there were seventy eight passengers and five or crew members

aboard 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 department this was a new service that only launched this morning 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 truck 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 rally didn't vienna on monday as austria's new coalition government which includes a far right polity was sworn in by the five thousand back to. his historic health policies the ceremony took place among them what anti fascist students and the left wing groups they were confronted with

a heavy police presence protesters marched through the streets with plot cons bearing slogans such as don't let's not seize goven a major concern for them is that k. state positions have been given to the far right freedom party it will take on the foreign 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 there's some to look at that will slow india 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 cannot take things the. crisis you get the impression right to the beginning of the year of course we saw builders pushing hard for the dutch launch where is here in germany where i'm talking to you from. which of the political scientists verna pops out says 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 rajan populism has been growing in all these countries and the self-confidence of europe centrist and left this government has been shattered by this rise of right wing pop the contradictions. by too many clubs over the years so i know the game and so i got. the ball isn't

only about what happens on the pitch for the final school it's about the passion from the fans it's the age of the super manager billionaire owner to spend spend to get a twenty million fly a. full it's an experience like nothing else not to because i want to share what i think from what i know about the beautiful guy like great to want more chance with . the things he's going to. welcome back now russia and china are the main threats to america's global dominance with us according to president trump's new national security strategy document outlines the ways in which washington can advance its influence and preserve its prosperity. 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 well document strongly criticizes mosco on this international policy in particular it claims russia uses technology propaganda and coercion and attempts to shape a welt fundamentally opposed to america's interests they start with the wrong premise they start with the idea that we have an empire we have a responsibility and it isn't. they believe it's a moral responsibility and we are the decider and we should influence people because we are exceptional and they're all start with the wrong things so it's just a matter of degree because of our people america has been among the greatest forces for peace and justice in the history of the world when the american people speak all of us should listen i want to believe that trump card is with us who are

thinking that we should have more open relationships and talking he said it before but he has had to back off and i guess the pressure is too much we're them the deep state the people who control the media there is a different option and it doesn't have to be more militarism and more confrontation there is no need for that it's time we came into a modern world where we can actually talk with people speech announcing that he is strategy trump nevertheless that the usa needs to build a partnership with russia and china as recent intelligence cooperation between washington and prevent a series of terror attacks interesting called trying to thank him as the cia the u.s. president said hey on the whole american intelligence community we're pleased they could help to save lives the leaders also agree this was a positive example of the countries working together. i compliment the both presidents for doing this and it makes no sense on some of our policies because at the same time we have this signal that we can talk and work with each other and

help each other at the same time we just had a budget that was passed where the risk five billion dollars allotted to building up defenses and eastern europe to stop russian aggression there's something awfully weird about there at the same time if we can be civil and talking to each other why do we and i speak for our country why do we have to spend so much money pretending that we're going to be invaded and then we're threatened by russian aggression that makes no sense whatsoever but since foreign secretary says russia is back to cold war era hostility towards the west at boris johnson made the comment ahead of this week's meeting with his russian counterpart sergey lavrov in mosco unnecessary check in a hostile. 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 open this its culture and civilization was the end of united states and the wished russia for me was closed no militaristic and democratic like sponsor well boris 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 it referendum if you remember in the past he's 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 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 in westminster are nervous about what is going to happen when boris johnson finally gets to moscow for talks with his counterparts we have seen the chair of the parliamentary group on russia and labor m.p. chris bryant publish an open letter to boris johnson warning him of certain things that could come including things such as his food potentially being spiked some kind 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 worn. 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 him in the future but that said boris johnson has

made it clear by sort of repeating his mantra of beware but engage that he does plan to have serious talks when it comes to the situation in syria and specifically collaborating with russia to defeat isis terrorism so certainly lots to look ahead for when it comes to this visit later in the week. three people have been killed and almost thirty injured after a car bomb attack in the southwest of afghanistan twelve of the wounded were soldiers and one of those killed was a security officer according to local officials now the group has yet to claim responsibility early on monday islamic state claimed responsibility for an attack on an afghan intelligence training center in kabul armed militants stormed a building at the complex leading to intense fighting with security forces local journalists are lost are weary as the details. one car bomb has exploded there's another one the attackers that brought them what them it's quite an embarrassment

to say the least because these areas should be protected these are areas where afghan intelligence trained members and new recruits and. is another facility that task with providing security to other installations in kabul all across the country what we see in these days is that militants targeting kabul and other major cities which is almost a new front. taking place in kabul as below one crosses president a man will not however instead of congratulating. him.

my phone off. one of the most heavily mined regions in the world that's fallen decades of conflict with its neighbors it was a spanish colony from the late nineteenth century until nine hundred seventy five them both mauritania and morocco claimed sovereignty us from locals the establish the fronts and declared an armed struggle in one nine hundred seventy nine mauritania withdrew from the war even moral codes snatch more land and insurgency ensued and the ceasefire was the one nine hundred ninety one and independence referendum was promised for the following year but never happened. we have been
