goes for this boycott of the winter games in twenty eighteen that will be the direct result of the r.c. decision that we heard on tuesday but the i.o.c. probe has already resulted in more than two dozen russian winter olympians being banned for life and we understand that there is more to come and questions have been raised along the lines of why do athletes who test positive from different countries get bans for only a few years and then they're allowed to compete and then when it comes to the russian athletes they're supposed to be kept away from the olympics for good so you bring up these lifetime bans has the i.o.c. given any reason for these specific lifespans while it's been said that the russians are being disqualified because of the scratches on the doping test bottles and also the excessive amounts of salt and the clean doping test samples which according to the you see couldn't have been produced by a human body so these two elements of evidence but the question is is that enough to blame individuals for cheating while they could have been unaware of this kind of tampering is

an issue that will be choir the joint discussion by all of the r.c. member states in order to identify a new name. and if the occasion were to ask for it we should resort to the united nations in order to further assess this question because we need to sit down and lead such a process with the impartial players instead of players taking sides despite all of the united nations security council resolutions. that this decision was taken by the us administration and those resolutions have never been respected by the israel. when that was the case many repetition is were made. and. all of the. process he seemed to have always figured israel. i'm not sure if the members of the president see these maps but if i need to give you an example. he used that firm ninety four to seven o two today you can see the evolution of the palestinian. territory in the night before nine hundred forty seven of course we need to think about the one nine hundred thirty s. when. he. knew the british started. taking actions and this green area used to belong entirely to the state

thoughts of heartbreak at last night's attack on the united nations peacekeepers into the r.c. i offer my deepest condolences to the families and loved ones of the victims and to the government and people of times anea and i we should speedy recovery to all those in jude's i condemn visit take any critically and use the leave its attacks against you in peacekeepers and acceptable and constitute a war crime the former president of georgia mikhail saakashvili has been recaptured in the year craney and capital kiev authorities said put him on a wanted list after supporters helped break cameron free from police custody earlier this week is accused ever saving financial support from a group allegedly linked to former president they're trying to cope because potentially face up to five years in prison if found guilty have stripped the forty nine year old of his ukrainian citizenship in july. on sunday the international campaign to abolish nuclear weapons will be awarded the nobel peace prize in the lead up to the ceremony we've been looking at countries with nuclear capabilities that

there is no r.c. translation right now for us i mean we are a group of syrian and arabs so we don't speak first unfortunately. these activists are well intentioned but dealing with arab refugees is as new to them as dealing with german activists is for me on one side there was one of these stupid questions which came up always in the newspapers to get to discussions how much money does or if it you get already or if you're rich it gets more money. than i hope feel. that a good person hurts for receivers our welfare recipients. claims that the german government spends more money on the refugees than on the poor german the fact is refugees and hurts for recipients both get four hundred euros per person per month . he still has no money and he still can't move you can. either steve says the good news no they called. it's monday night in dresden near the beautiful square showcasing the cultural glory of germany's past each week thank you does the growing right wing movement claims a spark to protest again

they will have a slight problem as well because you've got party jones per catalonia you've got the r.c. party but these two big parties can't really agree on who will be the leader is an exile if he comes back he's likely to go to jail and that's that's quite sure considering what the whole is said today he said we can't have anybody violate our constitution and on the other hand you've got the sea party and the leader of that party hume kara's he is in jail in spain so who should lead this government and they have another problem a small coalition party they see you peace party has won four seats and they need these four mandates to form a majority however that party has said i'm only going to join you if you will push through independence the two big parties are a bit weak on that point they're not really sure if they really want to impose independence because they have seen that that can a lot of problems so it seems like that the coalition will be very very complicated in that respect complex situation there and dave lethal and meanwhile mariano rajoy he's not exactly in a position

absolutely no solution so we're very happy we'll see what happens thank you all very much because of r.c. is overshadowing what should have been a big win for trump and the republicans the senate giving the green light on the tax bill we'll get more on that in a moment with ins to park in washington d.c. first though tom ackerman has more on a long night in the senate and a republican one that's already proving controversial after last minute changes to appease some holdouts the tax bill passed by the narrowest of margins the yeas are fifty one in the nays are forty nine. all republicans with one exception voted for the bill which their leader hailed as a tonic for the u.s. economy we have an opportunity now to make america more competitive and to keep jobs from being shipped offshore and provide substantial relief to the middle class but democrats called it a bonanza for multinational corporations and the ultra rich while adding more than a trillion dollars to the u.s. debt there is a trail of broken promise broken promise to working families in a mad dash to pass this bill and the amer
