Security council unites fourteen against the u. S. Recognition of jerusalem as israels capital but washington vetoes the resolution. Veteran served on a post that wins the contest to lead his party putting him in line to be south africas next president plus. Protests in front of argentinas Congress Building turn violent while legislators inside debate sweeping changes in. U. S. President donald trump has outlined his National Security strategy identifying russia and china as competing great palace hes promising hundreds of billions of dollars to modernize the military u. S. Power abroad our White House Correspondent can really help get reports from washington populism has been a hallmark of his presidency and donald trump again struck that note as he announced his strategy for u. S. National security is an approach he says began when voters rejected the Security Policies of his predecessors on january twentieth two thousand and seventeen i stood on the steps of the capitol. To herald the day the people became the rulers of their nation again in a rambling and often disjointed address trump skimmed through the substance of his plan including highlighting a desire to pursue an almost cold war like mindset identifying china and russia as key u. S. Adversaries despite working with russia recently to avert an attack in St Petersburg area sieved a call from president putin of russia thanking our country for the intelligence that r. C. A. Was able to provide them there was no specific mention of the kremlins meddling in the twenty sixteen u. S. Election just allusions to china and russias use of technology to shape a world counter to u. S. Values. And only a vague mention of how trump intends to combat the Ongoing Nuclear threat to the United States by north korea america and its allies will take all necessary steps to achieve a denuclearization and ensure that this regime cannot threaten the world overall trumps message was thin on details hes laying out this case of you know the world is really bad it was really bad before i got here and now im going to fix it so its not really about the strategy itself so much as you know the person president from determined to fix these problems. And there was only one reference to the middle east in his remarks although his strategy specifically calls on countries to combat extremist groups like eisel locally it was a speech further highlighting one of the Biggest Challenges for the Top Administration since taking office cohesion and Foreign Policy success it is a challenge that appears likely to continue given the divergent positions of trans National Security plan kimberly hellcat al jazeera washington. Well china has responded to Donald Trumps statement adrian brown joins us live now from the Chinese Capital beijing adrian said donald trump warned of this Great Power Competition with russia and china in his speech so what are the chinese been saying well ahead of President Trumps address darren a Foreign Ministry spokeswoman spoke to the media on monday and she essentially defended trade between china and the United States defending those policies and also outlining what she saw as a win win scenario i dont think theres anything in President Trumps address thats going to give the chinese any sleepless nights they know that they are a strategic rival of the United States theyve heard that all before so yes i think in many ways they are going to be breathing a sigh of relief but on monday as i say the Foreign Ministry spoke spokeswoman who are churning outlined what she saw as the benefits of the Current Trading relationship and this is more of what she had to say or merely you may find that we are all willing to work with the u. S. To build a strong stable and sound bilateral economic relationship it is in line with the two countries interests and the expectation of the International Community and adrian there are signs that President Trumps words being tested by a decision affecting chinese steel exports. Thats right a short time ago in fact a few days ago Chinas Finance Ministry announced that it was going to reduce the taxes that chinese steel exporters had to pay on steel they sent overseas now that say some analysts is because the chinese are trying to get rid of excess capacity in other words they are dumping and this is just the sort of thing that really goes the United States and this is possibly going to be one of the battle lines i think in two thousand and eighteen but overall as i say i think the comments that china heard from President Trump their interpretation is that his speech was in many ways quite an a dine and nothing really for them to worry about too much and of course remember President Trump was here just last month in november praising president xi jinping for the work hed be doing on dealing with north korea he praised him quite a few severely and of course the chinese know that while hes praising them over north korea theyre not going to be squeezed over trade adrian thank you well trump also singled out north korea promising to take all necessary steps towards achieving denuclearization on the Korean Peninsula al jazeera is kathy novak has more from pyong channel. In the written statement the National Security strategy warned that north korea is developing Nuclear Weapons that threaten hundreds of millions of americans it also says the country is pursuing chemical and biological weapons that can be delivered by missile the United States says the north korean government is starving its own people while spending hundreds of millions of dollars on weapons and separately in an op ed in the wall street journal the National Security advisor Thomas Bosshard says north korea was behind the want to cry it cyber attack that affected more than two hundred thousand computers in oh about one hundred fifty countries earlier this year that attack used a virus that used ransomware that demanded money so that victims could access their own computers so now you have the United States saying that north korea is developing nuclear Chemical Biological and cyber warfare but when it comes to Donald Trumps remarks there was little new in terms of what the u. S. Intends to do about those threats of course last week Rex Tillerson the secretary of state caused some confusion when he seemed to suggest that the United States was open to negotiations with north korea without preconditions but he later seemed to walk back from those remarks and the white house and state Department Said that the u. S. Position on north korea has not changed the palestinian leadership is condemning the u. S. Veto of a u. N. Draft resolution on jerusalem the motion opposed President Trumps recognition of jerusalem as israels capital the u. S. Is on its own that the Security Council with the other fourteen members all supporting the resolution michaela reports from the u. N. Those against. The u. S. Exercises its veto when the resolution fails and then at some bastard a sharpie attacks the fourteen other members of your Security Council that voted in favor what we witnessed here today in the Security Council is an insult it wont be forgotten its one more example of the United Nations doing more harm than good in addressing the Israeli Palestinian conflict the palestinian representative is adamant that the veto is a final confirmation that the u. S. Cannot be regarded as an honest broker in the region. And this resolution affects the status of the United States as a peace broker and it actually stresses its bias and it undermines its role in any future Peace Process earlier ambassador after ambassador outlined why they would support the resolution the United Kingdom will vote in favor of the egyptian text on the islam because it is in line with our longstanding position on jerusalem it is in line with previous Security Council resolutions israel the only other nation that backed the u. S. Position they can vote on this issue again and again and again even a hundred more times but it will never change the fact that you lose a limb eve has been in or we will be the capital of israel but the matter is not going to end here even before the vote was taken palestinian leadership insisted that would take the matter to the u. N. General assembly where there is no veto such a resolution would be nonbinding but it would highlight the Massive Division between the u. S. And the vast majority of other nations on the issue of jerusalem and the possibility too that the palestinians may now push for the International Recognition of east jerusalem. As the capital of palestine. Mike hanna aljazeera United Nations mean on the white house has announced that Vice President mike pence has proposed a trip to the middle east it says pence needs to stay in washington for this weeks vote in a major tax reform bill but in the wake of trumps Jerusalem Decision the visit was also running into trouble Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas and one of egypts top religious leaders both announced they wouldnt meet him.

Has lost its way prisons in this tenure has been tarnished by controversy there was the rape charge he was acquitted of and hundreds of corruption charges related to a multimillion dollar deal it will take a lot to undo the damage to the party of Nelson Mandela so ramaphosa campaigned on an Anti Corruption message policy a fresh start and a clean up more trend. Behrendt style of governance and his business action to build a stronger economy to create millions of desperately needed jobs perhaps adama poses viable and causes honestly meanie zuma the current president s exwife was too tainted by association with zuma even her track record as a strong politician in her own right with a passion to promote the needs of the countrys poor wasnt enough but saddam opposes tosk is enormous unite a divided a.
