Here as Vice President bike paths has made a surprise visit to afghanistan he met afghan leaders as well as u. S. Troops stationed in the country has said the u. S. And its afghan partners have put the taliban on the defensive and that the trumpet ministration wants to take advantage of what he called new alignments in the region with with the rising threat of iran in the region you have many urban nations that are engaged in something that could be described as the beginning of a new alignment. And taking the opportunity this is stuart moment as the president did. At the summit but he attended that historic summit. To call on arab countries to partner with us in the war against terrorism but also to call all the countries israel and arab countries to come together to achieve. Peace thats been so its. Been you know between israel and the palestinians. Peruse the present. Since he has survived an Impeachment Vote in congress over corruption allegations that followed twelve hours of debate as a case of receiving illegal payments from the brazilian construction giant obreht he denies any wrongdoing abraxas being at the center of a massive bribery scandal thats caused political upheaval across latin america pious and says has more from lima. This was certainly not an expected outcome for four days now analysts have been saying all along that it was very possible that the precedents of two thousand would be removed from office but the main promoter of this impeachment of Popular Force party did not get was eight votes short of the eighty seven goals needed to impeach a president that of our local teens. In part i think is because one faction of the Left Wing Party that has promoted the motion to impeach the president had changed. Is changed the rounds in the last few days and now they were saying that this was in fact eccles rationals who was against a precedent and the other reason i think for this unexpected outcome is that to part of the members of pussy more tea party of the Popular Force party led by people for humanity abstained from voting at least ten members of her party abstained from voting. Spains worst political crisis in decades looks set to continue after separatists parties won the most seats in catalonia snappish an election it wasnt a resoundingly victory as a pro unity party became the biggest in the Catalan Parliament but the result is a blow to spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy who has called the vote who called the vote hoping to weaken the Independence Movement from barcelona call penholder reports.

To win by catalan separatist parties risks stoking the confrontation with spains central government. In another barcelona neighborhood another celebration. For the pros Unionist Citizens Party which favors remaining part of spain thank god. Catalonia we won the election for the Catalan Parliament. Citizens party won the most votes thank you its a hollow victory this election was never about the Biggest Single Party but much more about Coalition Building now this is what its all about one hundred thirty five seats up for grabs in the chamber of the capitol and parliament the magic number sixty eight thats what either the separatist bloc or the unionist bloc will need to take majority control election day began for the telly cabinet as family like millions of other cast lands. Just a few steps to the polling station. The couple voted for separatist candidates the ballot slips read more like a police most wanted list spanish prosecutors had a rested leading separatist candidates on charges of rebellion some remain in jail some pled abroad and others around on bail pending trial across town brought somebody estrada headed to the polls it was her chance to cast a ballot for one of the parties vowing to stop the breakup of spain has been followed as a minister i am hopeful because we need to change after all these months of so much of the independence cause and hoping for change the outcome was a defeat for the spanish Prime MinisterMariano Rajoy he dissolved the Catalan Parliament in the wake of that october referendum. Called for these elections hoping that he would gather some support for his own policies and it has completely backfired in the coming days process session parties will have to agree a joint strategy forced madrid to negotiate or press ahead with plans for a breakaway republic. Aljazeera bosler. Oppose catalan president cars put him on his own selfimposed exile said that the Succession Movement is now stronger than ever the last of the screen you know asked that the Spanish State has been defeated roy and his allies have lost and have got a slap in the face from the citizens of catalonia today royd has sunk the three parties that have no one are not in any way behind the Political Party the paper with these results in hand the situation needs to be rectified to be fixed we want you to rectify all those people you have her toy for brannan as live at the Catalan Parliament now so pull struggle continue. Indeed and the fractures within council on society and politics are there still laid bare nothing because been done to repair those certainly no repair made possible by the results that weve had from those elections on weapons day so i think the difficulty is what happens next and joining me to discuss that is georgia on tommys a political scientist a political analyst consultant from the university of buffalo and julie first of all what do you make of the of the results last night and the way that the Citizens Party. Became the Biggest Party and yet the independents his partys maintain their block this size first of all we must admit that Citizens Party overwhelmingly. Secondly. Independent this blog day richard majority. Government bad citizens in the streets in boxes said the gave a clear message. Independent this process can be done can be done but in a different way that it was implemented in the last period and we can see this message according to their seats that group there must the Extremist Party independent this blog richard yesterday in the parliament they had ten seats in the last period and now they only have four seats just to explain to the viewers cooper is essentially kingmaker that the they would be the smallest party in the coalition but theyre the party whose seats would not judge them into that majority field but lets talk about colors pushed him out hes selfimposed exile in brussels if he is selected to be president again he could be behind us yet there is a kind of early stick framework because we must think that. One is in brussels some of some members of their. Of the. Party. Who are candidates as well in brussels we have three members of the can do this is well. In jail and we will see we will see what is going on will happen if they can be back here to take the seat or not we will see well see and its fiendishly complicated so what exactly do you think minister mariano the whole you sitting in madrid is going to do in response to this result well the experience. That. The best what what he did what he did last years is doing nothing and let the things be happened. Now. Message is clear the results are very narrow we have a clear majority. But we dont have majority. Fifty percent of the boats but. We can. Get bogged down thank you thank you very much george he was saying that theyve won the parliament theyve got a majority there they didnt win the popular vote fifty percent of the actual votes into the ballot boxes and that means the dispute is just going to go on in the months to come. And we take a look at. Hello foggo barrons at the moment in the northwest of europe as this itll area of clyde represent war my being pushed over colder usually produces a lot of fog this is our captured cold its even food in the satellite that gracious low temperatures by day minus three plus one in warsaw and this then tucking in is what twelve degrees or so in london obviously it brings tired and rain eventually once the fall has gone so as vision incursion in the north if you have nothing to keep bringing a little bit of snow not much of anything but a little bit of germany and poland probably better was and of course the alps the north and slopes the alps once more to sayas weve got rain still hanging around the g.

Well again youre watching out of our top stories this hour the u. N. General assembly is overwhelmingly back to resolution rejecting the u. S. Recognition of jerusalem as the capital of israel one hundred twenty eight states voted for the nonbinding resolution with just nine against and thirty five. Perus president. Vives an Impeachment Vote in congress over corruption allegations. Of receiving illegal payments from the brazilian construction giant he denies any wrongdoing. And in catalonia Regional Elections separatist parties have won a majority. There wasnt a resoundingly victory as a pro unity party emerged as the single largest group. Here and special envoy for syria. Is joining ongoing talks in kazakstan the eighth round of the socalled stand up process aimed at ending the conflict began on thursday russias parliament has approved the extension of moscows lease of its naval base in syria for another five decades. The battle for the syrian city of aleppo began in two thousand and twelve ended one year ago when progovernment forces took control of the entire city the rebels in the east who under siege had to surrender and withdraw the government now has the upper hand on the ground but it didnt put syria on the road to peace said to her reports from neighboring lebanon. Thousands were made homeless civilians fighters activists opponents of the government who were forced to leave aleppo city these syrians now live in rebel controlled province their suffering isnt over. We always thought that aleppo was but we were forced to live they took it now were living a very difficult life and no one is helping us. Its been a year since the battle for aleppo came to an end the opposition surrendered its last stronghold people were under siege for months and trapped in a war zone the choice they had was to die or leave their homes. One of the most difficult moment was when i stepped onto the bus and said goodbye to my city ive had that i lost a part of me or hated the world and. Omar halliday didnt just lose his home aleppo was the heart of their revolution young men like the were hopeful when the rebels captured the east of the city of two thousand and twelve. As a journalist who documented the conflict that followed now he says the years of sacrifices amounted to nothing. They killed our families how can i return to an area under their control i would rather die elsewhere just as long as it is in liberated territory. Progovernment forces always stressed the importance of the fight thousands of troops were used in the final push. The capital damascus and. That young boy who ever and the regime can. Just another battle it change the balance of power of the government and gave it political leverage. For the Syrian Government has shown no sign that it is ready to compromise or share power with its opponents where the socalled moderate rebels made their last stand in their defeat that weakened their voice in any political settlement. Of the opposition the beginning of there and. It is the end of the revolution for me. To live in dignity. Because i am wanted by the regime and they will kill me. Or the government december twenty two marks liberation and the beginning of the end of the war the opposition doesnt see it that way for them just like much of their country no longer belongs to them. At least five people have died after a ferry with hundreds onboard capsized in the philippines it was traveling in rough seas from the town of. Rescued two hundred forty people some of them were injured seven others are still missing. The greek government is making a concerted effort to take refugees out of overcrowded camps before the winter sets in. Built to receive five and a half thousand people and they currently host twice that number. Osama has waited for this moment for five months but as he finally boards a ferry for athens and a future far from his native palestine he almost seems to regret it hes one of one hundred ten refugees sailing for the mainland many have been here longer. Came here fourteen months ago after i saw the fighters destroyed his house in mosul its like a dream for everyone here because they spent long time i learned they werent allowed to leave until they finish their procedures so i takes time sometimes but you know they feel like they are really free when they got the audience under the e. U. Turkey agreement refugees arriving on greeces Eastern Region islands have to stay there until their asylum case is a hood but the government may move people with disabilities families children and single women. That leaves a lot of single men behind for them boredom and overcrowding create a toxic mix some us volunteers a self organizing group raised money to create a day center for them here refugees can feel human relax socialize learn languages and burnish their resumes in english and soon theyll be able to wash their clothes this face in the can be so very natural and theres no space where someone can do any anything physically any activity so having a place like this really takes their mind away from from all the tension and having as there the government has offered to build a second camp here but officials inside most like on the other islands have refused so the existing camp built for seven hundred currently hosts fifteen hundred half of them are women and children theres a scarcity of medicine clothes water and hygiene but things were even worse before the evacuation until the beginning of december this terrorist all of grove was a tent city where some say. Seven hundred people lived trenches dug around the turns in an effort to divert rainwater are still visible the governments concerted push to shelter refugees ahead of the deep winter means that the most vulnerable populations have now been moved to the mainland more people arrive each week the difficulty of reaching athens sends them a message that europe is lifting the drawbridge to war torn lands and that this millennia old migration route across the aegean may in future have fewer happy endings.
