To india now where the ruling looks set to retain Prime Minister Narendra Modis home state of cruiser on overcoming a challenge from the Main Opposition Party after early poor showings that the j. P. Surged ahead in the election which was seen as a test for the Prime Minister Narendra Modi he has been the chief minister of iraq for three terms and the party has ruled the state for twenty two years. And the last latin American Country to shift to the political right by electing conservative billionaire Sebastian Pinera as president and easily overcame a center left opponent in the runoff vote its the second time hes been elected a lot america or lasy a new man of course from santiago. Chile is billionaire president elect to got what he wanted another crack at the presidency for the second time in twenty seven years chile has swung from the center left to the center right both times the civil stamping it out the markets favorite the former president a successful businessman promises better times ahead as he extends an olive branch to the uk if he does what are you committed to old chileans a commitment to unity and dialogue and so i invite all of the previous president s to share their experience and advice with me so that we can reach National Agreements to tackle the biggest problems. At the headquarters of center left candidate. There were long faces i had run on the promise of accelerating the social reforms started by the current government of president Michelle Bachelet but the former journalists inexperience and chilly sluggish Economic Growth ultimately gave the conservatives the upper hand bennetta has been linked to several shady business deals and political scandals but clearly it did not matter i think the general issues that politicians announce a discredited that people just assume that they are liars will be for whatever and then choose between the lesser of two evils chileans have made their decision joining the recent latin american swing towards the political right but in this country you know would not have an easy time of it not only because the electorate has proven itself to be more demanding but also because you will not enjoy a majority in the legislature. Which means i will have a hard time rolling back on still popular social reforms as is happening in brazil and new. Bring argentina being you know government is going to be more of an administrative go is going to going to be very similar to what we saw in his first term in power its going to be more short term oriented its going to be related to jobs but this time round of us stamping it out will have to be less accommodating to the Business Elite the election has shown that chileans have become far more demanding and are expecting results no matter how hard they may be to deliver. The sea and human sunday at. The Un Security Council will vote later on monday on a draft resolution regarding the status of jerusalem and follow decision to recognize true islam as israels capital the move a spark almost two weeks of protests around the world there was more anger across the palestinian territory overnight with protesters burning effigies of u. S. President donald trump and israels leader Benjamin Netanyahu and more countries around the world have joined in rallies to show their support for the Palestinian People the tossing a name of ports from the protests in the turkish capital ankara. The turks have always been passionate about the palestinian cause despite the anchor a chill protesters spent three hours listening to music and speeches they waved turkish and palestinian flags and a fair amount of antiamerican signs reasonable this is im going to take he is a majority Muslim Country that acts unified and to get should lead in the muslim world if muslims are united im hopeful that your recent improper mopey sources. Since u. S. President donald trump broke with decades of american policy and recognize jerusalem as the capital of israel the turkish street has been vocal and president read. And has emerged as a potent advocate for palestinians hes pushing for leaders to take their condemnation and transform it into action. Murder one is taking this case out of the heart and Security Council where he says he hopes to quote. An old transit decision its unlikely hell get much traction given that the United States holds veto power but he says barring success there hell move on to the Un General Assembly its clear turkey plans on going to new into persistent hard line is that you shouldnt have to go to the old age. I am actually very glad of the decision as it serves to unite the muslim world and get them into action. In the most populous Muslim Country an estimated eighty thousand indonesians marched to the American Embassy in jakarta muslim clerics are calling for a boycott of american and israeli products until truck reverses his decision saying its not going to happen i want all muslims to unite and to the president of america to reconsider his decision for the good of all of humanity. Thats unlikely considering that trump says this is a recognition of reality and its in the best interests of the us in the Israeli Palestinian Peace Process but protesters dont see it that way in karate thousands showed up for what was called the holy city million march almost two weeks after trumps announcement people continue to show their solidarity for palestinians and in doing so ive also revived global attention to their plight natasha going to aljazeera. Egypt is circulating a draft resolution calling for the u. S. Recognition of jerusalem to be withdrawn it states that any decisions and actions which purport to have altered the character status or demographic composition of the holy city of jerusalem have no legal effect or no one void unless they were ascended in compliance with the relevant resolutions of the Security Council i can a has a details from new york. The draft resolution being circulated in the United Nations has been drawn up by egypt with input from other parties it would appear now the resolution may change in form or shape before its actually voted upon probably in the scumming day however the resolution as it stands at the moment does not mention the us by name i understand that various parties such as the United Kingdom and indeed egypt wanted to try and keep the language as neutral as possible in an attempt possibly vain to keep the u. S. From exercising its veto within the Security Council the resolution as it stands at the moment is actually a restatement of the uns position on jerusalem as outlined through decades of Security Council and general assemblies a resolution the most recent being in november this year in which the General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to declare any unilateral acts in jerusalem as null and void that phrase null and void is contained in the current draft resolution the draft resolution calls on all states to refrain from establishing Diplomatic Missions within jerusalem i understand the palestinians somewhat angered they didnt want to single out the u. S. By name however it appears from this draft resolution that egypt and the u. K. Have had their way too in attempt to avoid the u. S. Veto however it would appear that that vetoes likely to happen with israels enthusiastic backing which describes the resolution as a palestinian attempt to reinvent history despite the fact that it is rooted on u. N. Resolutions as they stand at present but palestinians making very clear that should the u. S. Veto this resolution in the Security Council they will attend to have it introduced in the General Assembly where theres nobody to at play. Back now to india where the ruling looks set to retain Prime Minister Narendra Modis home state of critical call in his life for us and goes writes largest city a matter. To be i know its kind of difficult for you to hear theres a lot going on behind you but tell us more about whats expected from there these results and why the rest of the country is paying such close attention to these local elections. Where. People already are taking the b j p s. A lot thats why youre seeing this kind of election celebrations of a particularly worrying orange or saffron those are the colors of the j. P. The b j p has most likely retains power here but whats been interesting about this race is that this has been the closest race this century everyone has been watching this very closely here in the station shall be an interesting state if you bought it along very clear put political winds youre either t. J. P. Or your team good youre at the tory p. R. Team congress. Party which has not let a challenge here in two decades suddenly has risen up and lead a credible campaign led by raul gandhi the newly crowned president he has now been seen as a leading a successful movement here by bringing together disparate disenfranchised political groups so even if they dont win hes still seen as making some sort of a mark here what they have done is actually bring up more voters in numbers here for congress but the rest of the country is watching particularly closely because of whos leading the b j p and not the countrys Prime Minister Narendra Modi he was chief minister here for thirteen years he personally inserted himself into the Campaign Year coming in campaigning coming and quoting here himself and so this has been seen as basically a marker barometer of his popularity to give it a hall and live for us and to view thank you.

Theyre afraid of what he might come up with that he actually might make charges conceivably criminal charges against the president for obstruction of justice no one knows no one knows where this investigation is going but theyre trying to discredit him in order to preempt whatever he comes up with are you going to remember the Robert Miller is a special counsel hes not an independent counsel as a special counsel he can be fired by the president the president requested that the Justice Department appoint a special counsel and he really does serve at the pleasure of the president but if trump or to do that if he were to dismiss Robert Mueller which he can do legally there would be a political firestorm unbelievable in the United States he has president as to to unveil his National Security strategy and later on monday is expected to take aim at americas to a political rivals and identify important global challenges tom ackerman has more from washington d.

In his National Security message mandated by Congress Trump is expected to brand both russia and china as quote revisionist powers whom america must recognize as adversaries despite drums and willingness to say a bad word about Vladimir Putin i feel that having russia in a friendly posture as opposed to always fighting with them is an asset to the world hes grudgingly approved added sanctions against russia which obama launched to retaliate for the reported cyber intrusions into the american electoral process since taking office trump has softened his campaign language about china which he did cues to economically abusing the u.
