S. Stop interfering in the citys internal affairs these rights are being protected by the basic law of hong kong article 4 basic law protect human rights and we have seen that all these rights including rights given to anybody working in hong kong reporting in hong kong so these are all self interest to do so i dont see that and the. Reason for changing that and thats that explain why in our statement we strongly sort of object to any attempt by any country try to. Introns hong kong interest district elections will be held in hong kong this weekend the government has not ruled out postponing that if there is more violence sarah clarke aljazeera hong kong. Britain someones chinas ambassador over allegations that a former employee at its consulate in hong kong was tortured simon chang says the Chinese Secret Police beat him deprive him of sleep and chained him up he says they were trying to get information about activists leading the protests in on kong he was detained for 15 days during a trip to the mainland in august of 0 Andrew Thomas thats the latest from beijing. In the Daily Briefing at the Foreign Ministry here in beijing a Spokes Person denied asylum in chains accusations of torture he said that while he was detained in august all his legal rights were guaranteed and it referred to a statement put out by the shans in place back in august when he was detained which essentially said that he was detained for soliciting a prostitute nothing to do with any activity he was or wasnt involved with in hong kong and the Spokes Person at the Foreign Ministry also said that the Chinese Ambassador in london will not be going and seeing britains foreign minister theyll be refusing that invitation if thats the right word at the same time earlier in the day the Foreign Ministry putting out a very strong statement condemning the u. S. Senate passing this act condemning whats going on in hong kong in beijing saying that this act by the u. S. Senates neglects facts and truth applies double standards and blatantly interferes in Hong Kong Affairs and chinas other internal affairs it goes on to say that the issue hong kong faces is not about human rights or democracy but about stopping violence and chaos and it says that the us senate has what it calls a hidden political agenda and passing this act paints criminal removes as the pursuit of human rights and democracy when the truth is a violent criminal rampantly smashing facilities again this statement aims with not so veiled threats that china will have to take strong countermeasures to defend our National Sovereignty security and Development Issues if the us insists on making the wrong decision no indication of what those countermeasures might be but the clearest signal possible really both in this statement by the Foreign Ministry and in what theyve said in response to simon chains accusations that these are all internal affairs within hong kong and china more broadly but nothing to do with foreigners. David sweet is managing director of Trans National china consulting he says that the u. S. Senate bill doesnt help the situation this is something that hong kong really feels the Hong Kong Government feels i mean i dont im not very supportive of the Hong Kong Government in terms of the way theyve handled this particularly for mrs lamb but but they really feel that this is something that they need to do they need to bring order to society theyve got some sense here that that wouldnt be a bad thing from the population of the protesters still have a significant level of support but i think theyre going to be damned if they law allow the United States to dictate to them how to resolve this so theres this crisis here in the city and if they decide you know if they cant get in for example your audience knows that theyve now surrounded the poly universe of the of a little while ago it looked like that could have been a really big pitched battle and if the winds up being a pitch for you know if the if the police cant get in and then have to eventually call in the Peoples Armed police i just think theyre not going to care what the United States government says and and sanctions against individuals you know im just. The citizen in a crisis and its going to resolve this crisis and i think in that sense from the beginning when you ask me is this interference by by the United States it certainly doesnt add i dont think it helps the situation in any significant way. The deadline for the main rival to israels Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu to form a government expires now in just a few hours benny gantz is negotiating with other parties his meeting with netanyahu as a last ditch attempt to form a unity government has made no progress last month netanyahu also failed to form a government if gantz cant do it israel could face a 3rd election in less than a year lets go live now to western zeros harry force can tell us more so lieberman has been talked about as a king maker harry how crucial will his decision be today. Well yes hes is already come out with a very consequential announcement he is the leader of the right wing secularist israel bit a new policy he used to be nessun you know whos ally in government defense minister but he was essentially a king breaker in may when he pulled his support from netanyahu just as he was trying to make a right Wing Coalition government then netanyahu responded by calling for this 2nd election in a row that elections were also inconclusive and now Avigdor Lieberman has dashed any slim hopes that benny gantz might have had to form a minority government with support from the outside of that government from the 10 palestinian israeli members of the Israeli Parliament who might have supported it that was always a slim chance now lieberman says that he will not back any such government and he wont back a right wing government led by netanyahu as long as it contains the parties of the ultra orthodox religious parties as well and so heres essential he said a plague on both your houses he said he was offered all sorts of things innumerable offers including a rotational Prime Ministership for a year but he would not sell his values he says for seats what he wants is a unity government what the president of the country also has called for is a unity government including both benny gantz and netanyahu but on one side benny gantz says he wont allow a Prime Minister facing indictment 2 to lead a government that he is involved in other charges on the way we think from the attorney general against netanyahu in a matter of days he also wants to go to to jettison his wider religious nationalist bloc as far as netanyahu is concerned he wont give up on either the block or the idea of remaining as Prime Minister and any prospects of a unity government remain out of reach as well so harry to what extent is a 3rd election in 12 months now and never born out of the electorate feel about that. Well the israeli electorate is certainly unhappy with the prospect of a 3rd election in 3 months because the polls suggest that exactly the same or very close to what we have now results would eventually 8 what happens after this deadline is that there is a free for all for 3 weeks if it is missed if counts as seems inevitable now come form a government any member of the knesset who could get the magic number of 61 recommendations of support could potentially put together a Coalition Government but it seems very difficult to see how the situation changes perhaps there are 2 possibilities one is that the very pressure of the 3rd election could focus minds even more and exert so much pressure that somebody somewhere compromises the other is if the charges do come in and they damage netanyahu sufficiently within his own party lee could then do we see the possibility of support splintering away from netanyahu within likud giving dance an opportunity to try to poach some people or even to see some kind of leadership upset within the ruling party so far there seems to be no appetite for that they know these charges are likely to come and yet they continue to support him so were stuck in this unprecedented deadlock in israeli politics it just goes on and on. I was there as harry for said reporting live from west to respond how many thanks this is that from aljazeera still to come on the program well tell you why police decided to target a Position Party members say symbolically. The deadly fall out from the political b. S. Operation to end the blockade of a major fuel plant and that in sport baradar waved goodbye to get another managers job raul will be here to explain a little later. A much awaited testimony will begin shortly in washington the Donald Trumps impeachment inquiry in just under one of the president s allies as you to be sworn in gold and soul and that is the u. S. Ambassador to the European Union now he cost control the see the 1st appearing before congress behind closed doors he altered his testimony to say that the president did withhold military aid to ukraine unless the ukrainians investigated joe biden and his son for corruption now the inquiry heard on tuesday from 3 of the witnesses they overheard the controversial phone call when trump pressured the president of ukraine to investigate the bidens well speak with our White House Correspondent kimberly hellcat in just a few moments but 1st lets join Heidi Joe Castro on capitol hill. What can we expect from this testimony today. Wagering court insaan land is a very important witness to this impeachment inquiry and thats for 2 reasons one is that he is the closest to the president among those witnesses who have agreed to testify and secondly hes really a wild card having him behind closed doors given the strongest defense of the president and arguably the most damning evidence against President Trump so how is he close to trump well some land is argued to have bought his way into the president s graces by being a mega donor wench. Was inaugurated someone was then awarded an ambassadorship appointment to the European Union and then solemn went on to brad to others in the administration about how he alone was controlling or a large part controlling u. S. Policy toward you crave notably ukraine isnt even part of the European Union and he also bragged about his access to the president saying he could reach trump at any time and that gets to the 2nd reason why solomon is so important at 1st he defended President Trump saying that the president s own words deny there being a quid pro quo later though gordon song reversed that testimony saying then that he recalled that he yes presume that the aid security a the 400000000. 00 from the u. S. To ukraine was being withheld contingent on ukraine opening an investigation into trumps political rivals and he says he recalled that not only did that exist but in fact he was the messenger who told that to ukrainian officials so the question today what were watching is which version of the facts are we going to get from saw will he default back to his defense of the president which may open up some wind to perjury or will he be more revealing and perhaps shed more light on the key phone conversations he had with trump which democrats are really hoping that will break open to shed light on exactly what the president s intent was when he on one hand withheld that security aide and on the other hand directed his subordinates to request the investigation into his political rivals all right heidi lets bring in our White House Correspondent kimberly how could also in washington so whats the mood like complete the white house with so many white house officials testifying. Well the u. S. President has just tweeted as he often does and tries to set the tone in the news narrative and the message that we seem to be getting is that there is a bit of confidence after the testimony particularly late on tuesday the feeling being that the testimony has underscored what the president has been maintaining all the time that there has been no wrongdoing in fact the president tweeting in just the last hour or so saying white house confidence grows as hearings were on this is an attempted takedown of republicans by democrats it will never work now the reason that the white house seems to be feeling rather confident or at least the u. S. President is because were seeing something a very we didnt see the last time this country was talking about impeachment of another president president bill clinton were not seeing members of the Republican Party going to the other side joining the democrats saying look i will join you for this vote for peace but what were seeing is a maintaining a split down party lines which we didnt see back in 1998 so the white house feeling as the strikes on that the American Public is viewing this is a political circus maybe wanting to focus more on what might affect them personally so the president is trying to set that agenda were going to see him going to austin texas today where hes going to be going to an apple plant where he is going to make the argument that this plant has created 20000 jobs as a result of his policies and were also watching very carefully as the president leaves the white house in about 2 and a half hours time what he might have to say are committed many thanks indeed on White House Correspondent kelly how could washington Michael Isikoff is the chief investigative correspondent of yahoo news he joins us now live from washington michael good to have you with us much anticipated really in his testimony has been described as pundits rubbing their hands with glee come here to wait what hes wait to hear what hes going to say well why is he so anticipated. Look theres no question that this is the most crucial witness so far. Is the one which this who had the most contact with President Trump on the whole ukraine matter hes already testified behind closed doors he had to amend his testimony already because he his memory was refreshed about yes he did in fact bring up the military aid saying that the best way for ukraine telling the ukrainians in warsaw the best way to get the you the military assistance hold lifted was to announce these investigations but now hes got a real problem because it david holmes before state Department Official and kid have has given a gripping very detailed account of a phone call that someone got from President Trump on july 26th the day after the july 25th phone call between President Trump and president s olinsky in which according to holmes sohn one said the president doesnt give an expletive about ukraine what he cares about is the investigations into the bidens silent did not testify about that when in his closed door deposition hes now going to be grilled about that why didnt you tell us that the 1st time he either will confirm a holmess count or disputed and raise serious questions about why he omitted such as a significant conversation when he 1st testified under oath could he michael face perjury. The commission and the fact that hes that hes already have to change his story. Sure thats thats the threat that hes facing right now whether he tells the full story or if he contradicts other witnesses theres the question of whos telling the truth here its hard you know holmess account which we now have which he gave in closed door deposition weve got a copy of it is very vivid very specific its supported by. The charge daffaires hales who learned about it from from homes that same day so you have 2 witnesses who have now recounted this conversation under oath to the committee and signed one who has not mentioned it at all hes going to be grilled very closely about that and all the anticipation is going to be about how he handles that very important line of questioning you heard when a White House Correspondent saying just a few moments ago about this error of confidence at the white house why would the white house be so upbeat given all that thats going on in this inquiry. Well to one extent they have to be thats what you want to tell the reporters when they call in the midst of this impeachment inquiry but it is true that the Public Opinion polls so far do not show a big shift in support for the impeachment of the president you have a divided country with Something Like 49 to 52 percent supporting him pietschmann depending on which poll it could be a little lower it could be a little higher but no dramatic move in the direction of impeachment now of course weve only had one week of. Testimony in public hearings this is the 2nd week i think a lot of people are going to be seeing what does the needle move after this week and as we go into the thanksgiving holiday here in the United States thats the big question because if this remains a divided country with divided parties democrats on one side republicans on another it does raise serious questions about whether when this impeachment the inevitable impeachment goes to the senate youre going to get Senate Republicans who will vote to convict and remove the president regards talk to michael many thanks indeed Michael Isikoff the from yahoo news. Israel says that its hit targets in syria belonging to the government and allied Iranian Forces but the syrians say that many of the incoming missiles were intercepted israel says that it was responding to rockets from syria into its territory on tuesday russia says the Israeli Military action was the wrong move to keep the Syrian Government. From beirut. And. Military acknowledging that its jets were responsible for targeting positions of the 4th which is an arm of the Iranian Revolutionary guard they do have a presence in syria and according to the Israeli Military they also targeted Syrian Military positions surface to air missiles in and around while it is rare for israel to target. Troops it is quite rare for them to target the Syrian Military in what is really being seen as a message to the Syrian Government that. For any attack emanating from oil israel is calling an act of retaliation they say. Was responsible for firing rockets towards the occupied Golan Heights on tuesday theres no independent confirmation on what exactly happened and whether or not that incident happened but has repeatedly said that it will continue to strike because they believe their presence there is a threat to its national security. To attack israel and basically create a new front along the occupied Golan Heights. Area so israel continuing with these strikes theyve been happening for years but the shadow war if you like between israel and iran is open because in previous months israel really has been more forthcoming in claiming responsibility for those strikes as we reported russia has condemned the israeli air strikes on a. Is a journalist and says that still wants a Good Relationship with iran and israel. Now russia called this israeli missile strikes are wrong to move to foreign minister mr grant says that it is contrary to the International Law and that it only needs to escalation of tensions in the region russia said theyre going to contact all of the sides involved to clarify the circumstances what is not known at this moment is whether israel informed russia before the strikes about what is to happen we know that since 2015 russia has its troops in syria and russia is involved both in the political and military militarily in syria at the same time iran is good and russia is even good relations with iran and russia also wants to be keep good relations with israel so for russia this is not an easy situation to be in in Zimbabwe Riot Police attacked opPosition Party supporters with batons tear gas and water Cannon Police called off the head halters of the movement for Democratic Change in harare supporters were there to hear Party Leader Nelson Chamisa highlights the ruling zanu p.

Where new president got a bye rajapaksa has named his elder brother mahinda a former president as Prime Minister had to replace his run in with from a singer whos stepped down after his partys poor showing in the election this week its going. To colombo and theyll flanders can tell us how does this work then in sri lankan politics how does the president appoint his brother Prime Minister. It is right now what. So far is that Prime Minister running. Has announced. Hes intention to resign as Prime Minister he basically said that given the people that this victory for president. That he has decided to step down giving the president the opportunity to set up the government that. The wave is that the private. Mr resigning the present has the authority and the leave way to call upon anyone that he feels commands the confidence of a majority or a significant power in parliament to set up a government and this is whats expected so victimise saying that he is stepping down he did say the formal resignation will basically be sent to the president tomorrow and that he has always respected democracy value democracy at this step is also in keeping with those ideas engine this is the end of the singer in politics. Well adrian its a case of never say never victor missing. Been down but not out again and again and again after this time round he has been Prime Minister a number of times in sri lanka is history he will get up just him sort of but there is an increasing sort of a sentiment about victor missing her not just within the public obviously the public spoke and that was the reason we didnt see him taking on go top it out to parts of because he knew he would not sort of command the public support however he Still Holding very strongly to the Party Leadership of the United National party and i believe the party is also now beginning to look in on its of to try and decide what where they go from here that it might be time for. Her to hang up the reins now this means that with his resignation as it stands hes still party leader which means he crosses over the floor of the house and takes on the Opposition Leadership but as to whether this is what the broader section of his party wants it remains to be seen there obviously have a lot of soul searching and some strong and key decisions to make as they go forward after this president ial election. The nominee thanks for that is reporting live from colombo a u. S. Military helicopter has crashed in afghanistan killing 2 crew on board u. S. Commandos in lago province and the Afghan Government are denying taliban claims that the aircraft was shot down. The pentagon is warning that eisel is getting stronger since the u. S. Withdrawal from syria and is offensive in a report it says that those developments have allowed eisel to rebuild its capabilities and resources and also warns that the death of isolated daddy wont slow the resurgence added says the group is likely to focus on freeing fighters being held by kurdish led forces in syria not a hashimi is director of the center for middle east studies at the university of denver he says that a stabilizing force is needed to fill the power vacuum in the region the short term challenge is to try and stabilize this area it was previously stabilized by american troop presence in alliance with Kurdish Forces so now that that arrangement has been. Changed i think thats the immediate i think the pressing challenge is to find some alternative security arrangement that prevents this area from further destabilizing allowing isis to you know insert itself and to reorganize but of course the longer term challenges still remain in these have to do with you know that the social economic and political conditions that produced isis to begin with to have to do with you know authoritarian regimes unemployed young people the lack of hope and also the ideological challenge that isis still poses as a as a movement that can still attract disgruntled young muslim men from around the world so i think those are the you know those are the 2. Immediate imperatives that i think need to be dealt with. Weeks of antigovernment protests in iraq are hurting business on many shop owners say theyre sympathetic to protesters to munge they also want to return to stability some other fulton reports from baghdad. As protesters digging their heels in downtown baghdad nearby businesses face a struggle of their own traders near Tahrir Square have found themselves on the front lines between Security Forces and demonstrators this Hardware Store and then other were burned down in recent unrest staff are still sorting through charred merchandise because the antiriot forces were on top of the buildings they targeted them the 2 shops that belong to us this one and that one were burned we were able to extinguish the fire as you can see it all turns to ash. Surveillance video from adjacent buildings shows protesters throwing petrol bombs the shop is insured but it will take time to rebuild in the meantime shop employees worry about how they will support their families when. We have daily labor is this is a livelihood work 2 or 3 days if. Its not just the businesses around Tahrir Square that are feeling the pinch port and road closures in southern iraq have stifled trade analysts fear the uncertainty stemming from the protests could have long term adverse effects on the economy. Political stability is an essential part of the Investment Climate i believe that these problems will lead businesses to think practically and to transfer their investment to other countries the partial internet shutdown has head butting Online Business community. Is iraqs main Online Food Delivery company but revenues have dropped more than half since the recent protests began. Batting application depends greatly on the internet if the situation continues like this we dont think we can continue for the next 2 or 3 months i dont believe well be able to cover the salaries. The lack of jobs is what started protests in the 1st place but now the economy appears even worse off demonstrators say that whatever the cost of the unrest its nothing compared to what has been lost to the corruption and a small price to pay in the interest of bringing about larger change.

K. They took a very different attitude towards the cigarettes and they ping dont. Yes thats right weve had a much more measured regulatory approach to the cigarettes in the u. K. Right from the word gay when they 1st started to become popular and we think that thats been very beneficial and that weve been able to promote a cigarettes as a Smoking Cessation age to adult smokers willing to quit smoking where we havent at the same time we havent seen the youth uptake of aping amongst never smokers so having a balanced approach to regulation seems to have enabled us to promote a paying for Smoking Cessation but prevent uptake of aping by young people whove never smoked tobacco so one of the health risks of being versus smoking tobacco cigarettes in the u. K. Have you seen. The kind of long illnesses that the the us is currently seeing. Well no we havent perhaps surprisingly that a cigarette uses become so much more popular we just havent seen the outbreak of acute lung injuries that have been seen in the u. S. What we do know about the u. S. Outbreak now that we have the lab reports of exactly what people were very paying is this seemed to be a very isolated outbreak connected to the vaporing of t. H. C. Illiquid containing vitamin a acetate and so for many of the cases there was a severe lung reaction and allergic reaction to the vitamin e. Acetate now thats a product thats actually banned for use in the u. K. So what weve seen in the u. S. Seems to be an acute outbreak connected to particular vite devices that havent been available in the general population in the u. K. In and amongst other European Countries so you know no ones saying that vaporing is completely safe clearly there will be the odd occasional reaction to paying but what we do know is it is certainly much safer than continuing to Smoke Tobacco so people who are current tobacco smokers who switch to merely replacing one habit for another are they going to become addicted to the nicotine thats in the vapors. Well clearly tobacco users smokers are addicted to the nicotine that they consume through cigarette smoking but actually we know that its not the nicotine that is the most harmful constituent it is the cost the jennet properties that are produced through the. Process of combustion that are most harmful to health and directly linked to cancer risk so although people thats quit smoking by switching to a paying will continue to have an addiction to nicotine they are continuing that addiction in a much less harmful form and we have to recognize that some people will choose to continue to use nicotine and are happy to have that level of addiction now if we can encourage them to do to continue that addiction in a much less harmful way that is clearly beneficial in terms of Public Health so encouraging people to switch from using nicotine in the most harmful for which slade tobacco smoking to using it in the least harmful form possible is is something that we want to encourage from a Public Health perspective can create a really good story too quickly not really there in the fine city of nourishment former home a fine city that is code for many things thank you.
