Are expected to announce formal articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump later on tuesday. Im going to go with the sports the World Antidoping Agency find itself facing criticism from all sides of the hunting russia for you banned from all sports. Thank you for joining us we begin this news hour with a Nobel Peace Prize in oslo ethiopias Prime Minister abi ahmed has just received the prize for his efforts saying reaching peace with neighboring every trio made was recognized for his role in ending a decades long military standoff and reestablishing relation. Between the 2 countries receiving the prestigious award the Prime Minister said he was accepting it on behalf of all ethiopians and eritreans who made he said the ultimate sacrifice for peace. Is a level of love sustaining peace is the hard work yes were most childish and not achieve it it takes a few to make war but it takes a village and a nation to build peace for me nurturing peace is like planting and growing trees just like trees need water in good soil to grow peace requires unwavering commitment in finite patience and goodwill to cultivate in the heart of us its dividends. Well i speak to a diplomatic editor James Spaders who has been listening in to the Prime Ministers speech there in chains a very personal message a message of peace from the therapy and Prime Minister a very personal one yes and people talk about his humility and i think in some ways that is what the speech was about it was interesting when we heard from the chairperson of the Norwegian Nobel Committee that she made it clear that he was a just a recipient of this war a war even though hes only been in power for 20 months she also laid out though the situation with eritrea although he was the architect of the peace that perhaps that hadnt been reciprocated fully from the other side he though when he started his speech he said he was accepting it all bar for himself and his eritrean counterpart. Theme of humility continued to the speech as he talked about the philosophy that he lived by the village where he came from and his life as a young soldier on the battlefield in that war between eritrea and ethiopia. And the the fact that you know the Norwegian Nobel Committee chairperson tough about the work being at a standstill in her speech and the challenges that he faces what quite was quite also significant an interesting lesson it yeah absolutely because things are not going all that well since it was 1st announced that he was going to get the Nobel Peace Prize and you have a backdrop of regional political mastic tension in the country and a huge number of internally displaced people in ethiopia she made it quite clear that this was not the Nobel Committee said you are the man to run ethiopia for over a country thats had lots of strongman in the past or that is worth going back to the humility that we saw from the Prime Minister im remembering that when he came to power in april april 28th in the time he did not win an election his predecessor resigned and he was put in place in the job by parliament he faces a really big challenge coming up in may he faces an election i thank you for that james bays our diplomatic editor live here in doha and as james mentioned the Prime Minister being recognized for his efforts of course to resolve the conflict with every tree but the award as you saw was not shared with eritreas leader priyanka go take spains why in this report. It was a moment few eritreans and a few peons had expected to see in their lifetime soldiers once enemies entered their shared border open for the 1st time in 20 years last years formal peace deal initiated break here piers new leader are being hammered and it didnt decades long military standoff it also ended every 2 years years of diplomatic isolation. For his efforts to bring peace to the region. P. S. Leader was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize but that owner was not extended to eritrea as leader president is a us africa is one party state has been accused of continuing its crackdown on dissent and maintaining its grip on power. And eritrea has since shut its border the whole Peace Process in a way that has turned out in the way that the word is trying to tell. White washes or. Tries to rehabilitate the image of where it is that when it hasnt. Budged even the slightest reason africa is jades thousands of political activists journalists and rights campaigners some of them have been in prison for nearly 20 years their whereabouts are unknown we havent seen any signs whatsoever of openings whether its in terms of the release of high profile. Since since the. Former minister of finance was actually arrested all calling on the government to reform to implement the constitution so we are not seeing any steps whatsoever in precedence is i. S. F. Work is restrictive state young eritreans are forced to join the military often serving indefinitely and thats led to a generation of refugees desperate to escape a system described by activists as nothing short of modern day slavery a system has been in place since the order. With one of the excuses was that they needed to cheat country on a walk out in theory you know according to the government itself they have made a Peace Agreement with with the european governments and yet we havent seen any signs of willingness or interest of taking even small. Eritreas location. The red sea and swiss canal has made it a coveted ally for countries like the u. A. E. And russia countries that are seeking influence in the horn of africa for trade and political ambitions the u. A. E. Has built a military base with secret prisons in the port of a sub off editor Southern Coast as the world celebrates a peace deal between the african neighbors millions of eritreans are still waiting to see if life will change for the better Priyanka Gupta aljazeera. Well lets not speak to know who is a senior lecturer in law at Kiel University his life on the new south and you so much for being with us there are those who say that this award was too premature that it came too early in i. B. M. Its premiership what are your thoughts. I do i dont believe its too early or too premature and i think one of the reasons why it was important to recognize that we are met is the fact that he came to the political scene out of nowhere to be a sickly very quickly tried to change the tube in Political Landscape at least in terms of opening the political space but also made it dealing with it 3 of which required. I think some some cottage in a determination because theyre all of some Strong Political forces within a few bits of us that were not interested in making a deal with it each year so its not really the question of how long he has been in power but i think the determination that youre shown the commitment that he has dorman it demonstrated to give peace a chance not just with eritrea but also in the region internally in the 2 of us where weve heard about the changes that have happened in ethiopia since he came to power but what has the peace deal with each ethiopia eritrea rather achieved for eritrea and. I think the question that you whos really arises in these kinds of you know high profile recognition is whether this recognition actually generated the kind of outcome that you wanted to get it which is in the case of it here for example this is a highly repressive torito in a state people expect that the peace accord with you would be a would somehow. That side of the problem but unfortunately it is. Really difficult to change is 83. 00 and leaderships mindsets. And i think one thing that we hope this will do was because there wouldnt be the justification for its year to keep a huge number of soldiers and to keep the National Service out around them that would have created opportunities for people was in any sort of to ask questions and to demand political change in their own country and that i think thats one of the reason why you saw us into of quote the border with eritrea with you to a bit so i think there is it limits in terms of what one can expect of the peace accord. Democratic change with the details concerned. It is ethiopias 1st Prime Minister hailing from the aroma group which is ethiopias Largest Ethnic Group which spearheaded no mass on by government protests that forces predecessor i am dishonest to step down but hes coming to power hasnt really reduced yet the tensions in ethiopia as weve seen recently why is that you think. Youre absolutely right that b. I made a came to power on the call the struggle of 2 or more people particularly the or more use called the kate moss who paid very dearly to bring about this change since coming to power he tried to reach out to the Different Actors in the country but the divisions are just too deep house been around for all that this century and its very difficult for anyone to be able to bring these actors together in such a short period of time. So i think the country is going to struggle it is important the Prime Minister listens to all activists to all stakeholders on all sides but i think solving it europe is internal fractures mending the issues that were to depart exult of you know the terrible governance of the last several decades that is going to take a very long time thank you very much for speaking to us and sharing your thoughts our analysts a senior lecturer in not Key University thank you for your time lets turn our attention to other world news now on this news hour in a quarter nigeria has sentenced to former Prime Ministers to long prison terms for corruption minister ahmed or yaya was given 15 years in prison for corruption charges his predecessor. Also sentenced to 12 years former parliament speaker. Has been given 20 is the charges came from sweeping fraud investigations after the former president Abdelaziz Bouteflika stepped down in april. Is executive director of the Nordic Center for conflict transformation he says the sentencings are an important moment while jerry. In the 1st time in algeria Prime Ministers are tried since the independence of the country and what is important to mention also the trials. Are selective and the informal enforcement is also elective and this comes in haim when elections have already started outside of syria among the algerian obviously and in the context in which the process process continue for over 40 years and by this i would like to thank the young women and men who are in the streets in ontario in the last trading for more than 40 weeks and this is not what they expected from the system. It is not really about the the the census in itself but its about how the same system that created these judges who are pronouncing the sentences is the same system that created how these ministers were Holding Power allegedly and misusing allegedly the public funds so these are the main question that needs to be massive. Plenty more ahead on the news hour including indias nor house of Parliament Passes a controversial bill that sets religion as the criteria for granting citizenship to foreigners plus well have the latest from paris on how unions are increasing pressure on president marcos Pension Reforms and pakistan is open for test cricket as it prepares to host its 1st International Match in over a decade thats coming up with joe in sports.

This is a stain on our collective conscience and it drew be us one should win for any of us to simply look at the auto we and through 10 that it is not our business because it is our business. Aljazeera is wayne hale is at the hague he explains. Explains there is a high bar when it comes to prove proving genocide in court it goes without saying its going to be very difficult already we have heard from the gambian attorney general also the legal team that is speaking now inside the courtroom they have referenced many times already over the past hour or so that United NationsFact Finding Mission that found that there was a genocidal intent and gambian case is going to go a lot further than that and say that there were genocidal actions and continued to be genocidal actions inside the country not just because of the attacks on the ring of religious and the People Living there including murder and rape but also in some of the other actions like discriminatory laws and rules that are designed or targeted specifically at the ring of population also hate campaigns that were carried out by various groups inside me and with allegedly the support of the me and my government we know less about what the side will say when we hear from them on wednesday young son suchi herself is expected to make the Opening Statement on behalf of myanmar but it is expected they will focus largely on technical technicalities legal technicalities and with the main statement being that this court does not have the jurisdiction to rule in this particular case. Catch us Prime Minister is meeting gulf leaders and meet hopes of an easing of the regions diplomatic crisis he greeted saudi arabias king salmon after arriving at the 40th Gulf Cooperation Council in the saudi capital Riyadh Saudi Arabia the u. A. E. Bahrain any diplomatic and economic ties with qatar and 2017 they accuse the country of supporting terrorism in a charge which still has repeatedly tonight lets bring in our senior political analyst bashara for more on this marwan what are your expectations of this summit can there be some sort of a consolation after this well weve already heard the final communique and it sounds like theyve reached a number of understanding we dont have any clear sign about any specific of the gulf crisis for say with cutter but certainly theres a lot of seems to be theres a lot of goodwill out there talking about all sorts of unions and and unifications are a number of issues and the united on military financial and other affairs theres of course always the topic of how to manage some of this issues the fact that there was what looked like a warm reception for the 1st time in the last 2 or 3 years for the Prime Minister of qatar in an area that did board well for something more optimistic and the fact that there was a closed session called for by the king of saudi arabia thats also could be interpreted as a sign that they were getting down to business that this is not just simply for show but rather the leaders are sitting down and discussing seriously some of the issues at hand as i said the final communique in the german general sounds quite positive. So what are the obstacles then that still need to be overcome to resolve this crisis milan well theres been of course lots of lots of tension and distrust for the last 2 and a half years and clearly qatar is not going to go back to any of the previous understandings reached in riyadh because it was stabbed in the back and it was certainly more assurances and guarantees and those 40 will not happen in one event this is going to be a process short or long but definitely a process and today we had an important signpost where the qatari Prime Minister did attend d was well received thats a thats a good sign in the sense theres no reckless. Abstention or leaving or not attending and theyre also not of laws so of lets hug and kiss and everything would be ok kind of thing so it would be a number of events it would be a process and certainly within that process we will see what happened but clearly there are lots of signs today than there were 2 months ago in us fighters resolving the crisis thank you very much for that marwan bashar is a senior political analysts. By u. S. House democrats are expected to reveal 2 articles of impeachment against President Donald Trump in their bed to remove him from office that could see a possible vote on his impeachment as early as this week democrats are said to be unveiling articles and abuse of power and on obstruction of congress to case centers around allegations withheld military aid to ukraine in order to pressure ukraine into investigating his political rival joe biden thats right house correspondent kimberly how kate so kimberly what can we expect from the democrats today i think in an hour or so now. Thats right there is going to be a press conference 9 am local time here in washington so essentially starting the legislative day with the big announcement that people have been waiting for after watching these lengthy hearings we know that the Committee Chairs will be prez it expect that the front and center stage will likely be adam schiff the house intelligence chair who has been really spearheading this impeachment inquiry as you point out there will be 2 major charges abuse of power as well of is struction of congress we expect that this will happen in a sort of a wood paneled rayburn room up on capitol hill essentially steeped in history given the fact this is a momentous moment so what has been the reaction so far from the republicans and President Trump. Yes this is the only President Trump has not surprisingly been weighing in from the sidelines yet again in fact hes just tweeted in the last few moments he says to impeach a president who has proven through results including producing perhaps the strongest economy in our countrys history to have one of the most successful presidencies ever and most importantly who has done nothing wrong is sheer political madness so the president once again is saying i have committed no wrong doing in fact his press secretary has even said that this is weaponized thing the articles of impeachment in the u. S. Constitution for political purposes there is some irony in all of this and that is on the same day that House Democrats are announcing that they want to try and remove the president from office theyre also having him his biggest legislative victory what theyre doing is announcing as well today that theyve worked out a trade deal with the president on the u. S. M. C. A. That replaces nafta between canada the United States and mexico so its a little bit of irony this is one of President Trumps Major Campaign promises from 2016 very odd that theyre both coming down on the same day so the president trying to take advantage of that and that tweet highlighting that he says his presidency is successful even as there is going to be the announcement to remove him from office and also quite interesting kimberly. That the democrats want this to move rather quickly now they want to be done in dusted with this is to be over quickly. Yeah it is a little bit i usual but there is some sort of calculation in all of this because come january this is the president ial year in terms of the run up to the 2020 us election the following november this is legislative business that needs to be wrapped up because many of these democrats need to go out and campaign and say look at this is what we achieved we said that we would oppose the president s policies from day one when we came into office now they need to start the campaigning on all of that to say that they kept their promises this is a big opportunity in the Christmas Holiday week in december to try and do that so thats part of the reason why theyre quickly moving forward so that the senate takes over in january with its trial thank you very much for that Kimberly HockettWhite House Correspondent in washington lets speak some more about this not to joseph or who is an associate professor of Political Science at texas a and m. University he is a life in the news thank you so much for being with us so the democrats expected to draft 2 articles of impeachment against President Trump this is being described as a make or break moment for both sides both democrats and republicans what do you expect this strategy to be. Well i mean this is it this is the culmination of the months of investigation the hearings by the 2 house committees democrats are going to press forward with what they see as the strongest charges against the president the 2 points where they have the greatest body of evidence thats most easily explainable to the public and i think republicans will continue to insist that this is a politically motivated effort to remove a president with whom the democrats disagree about matters of Public Policy rather than sort of solemn execution of congresss responsibility to remove a president who has behaved inconsistent with his oath of office to rather than 3 articles of impeachment as many had expected at last weeks hearing in the House Judiciary Committee jerry nadler had put this in the context of the russian best occasion and yet theres no charges relating to that what do you make of that i think the leadership of the Judiciary Committee has focused on the articles where again they feel as though the evidence is most clear its most convincing and also where its most recently in the publics mind the hearings in the Intelligence Committee played to a wider audience in the United States the results of the investigation about collaboration between the Trump Campaign and russia were largely produced in writing and so focusing on these 2 articles that relate to a set of facts that are near the top of the publics mind im sure is both sort of a substantive strategy about where the evidence is is is greatest but also a political strategy about where they have the most momentum to convince americans that they have a solid case thank you for speaking to us joseph associate professor of Political Science at texas a and m. University thank you for your time thank you. Now the 49th us state continues its warm streak breaking another record time for the weather with rob they have specifically nonkosher all the high latitudes are actually warming in this boring globe at a greater rate than the midlatitudes so its very obvious in alaska and picking anchorage this storm system runs up theres a big southerly ahead of it suddenly winds or ways warm in the Northern Hemisphere so on monday 10. 00 degrees celsius far as i know its never been above 9 before and they have just minus 4 the whole of alaska has been warm this last year and produced just one funny example i was under it is cold is warm the rest of the us a contiguous states are about to get much colder its not this one here to watch is this cold front here this loop is bringing there was the head of really low temperatures the high temperatures today in places like minneapolis minus 50 would have taken care of the minus 20 and that set to get colder still overnight obviously it does drop to some degree a minus 20 is cold anyway for this time here in minneapolis modest 17 tomorrow it will warp a couple days time as the snow comes in but 1st of all the wind chill not wind does tend to ease and thats only a temporary warming by the weekend its cold again in winnipeg sitting in the heart of the code it stays subzero by some degree the average here is cold but still sunny mars 8 fully.

And myanmars leader on santucci has arrived at the uns top court in the netherlands to defend her country against genocide charges man last military is accused of mass graves killings and burnings during its crackdown on Rohingya Muslims in 2070. Well lets speak to antonia maulvi about this she is the executive director of legal action worldwide and shes at the hague thank you so much for being with us so the hearings have started its unprecedented i think for a top political leader like entente switchy to take a leading role in a legal case the International Court of justice do you think this will help or hinder myanmar stiffens. Absolutely it is im president and is unexpected in fact her role in this has gone and a great deal of support within me and our nerves barrenness everywhere saying we stand by answering suchi and within the court this morning indeed we were shown a message which had her with 3 generals saying we stand by you and suci at the i. C. J. So i think that from within me amar is going to gain support but x. Only if the International Community there quite shocked by what is happening and certainly those that we are representing 3 rangar survivors from the 2017 current separations were quite surprised and shocked to see how the court today un investigators have concluded that the crackdown on the road by myanmars military was carried out with genocidal intent what will prosecutors have to do to prove. That myanmars actions are indeed genocide. Well we have to remember that the International Court of justice is not a court that will have trials or prosecutions it is the state to state court and so here thats a very different level of evidence and this morning what theyre asking was for really preliminary measures which could have an immediate effect if they are granted by the court at the same time there is also an i. C. C. Have opened an investigation but not into the crime of genocide into the crime of fall. Civil deportation from me and into bangladesh when the need more than 700000 fled across the border following the 2017 Clearance Operations and in fact we are representing individuals in the victims mission for the International Criminal court so we have quite an interesting situation here in 2 years ago when i started on the independent Fact Finding Mission as a human investigator and i listened to hundreds of survivors talk about what happened to them these brutal crimes that in 20 years of any rights lawyer i have rarely heard we wondered where could justice come from and that is what they were asking for and yet today on International Human rights day we have the 1st one coming before the International Court of justice we have the i. C. C. Which has opened a full investigation and of course there is also universal jurisdiction cases from argentina as you said the gambia his legal team is asking i. C. J judges for provisional measures to protect the writing get before the case in full what is the best Case Scenario for the victims here what sort of relief can they expect when you consider that a final judgment i understand can take up to 5 years. Thats right a final judgment could take a long time but i think for the for the victims and for their communities its an incredible moment there hanger that were representing that are here today they have come from bangladesh from cox bazaar they have never been on a plane before theyve never been on a train before theyve never even seen a bus before and now they are here for an International Court in the same room as suchi and theyre going to hit hurts from ari trying to defend the actions of the chapman door this sends a very strong message to the International Community is watching and is listening to what happened to them and i think we cant underestimate the pull to its of this momentous occasion now in terms of the permission all measures that might be issued what impact could they have firstly 6 they are asking for this to stop the destruction of evidence this could have a huge impact and secondly they are asking them to stop any further genocidal acts to stop further violence in the Rakhine State that could impact many members of the community when 8600000 still residing thank you so much for speaking to us and tony among the executive director of legal action wont live live here from the heat thank you for your time. To iraq now where thousands of antigovernment protesters are once again gathering on the streets of baghdad to demand political change around 250 people have been killed in 2 months of demonstrations this weekend was particularly bloody 25 people died when an identified gunman opened fire on the crowd in baghdad simona fontanes in the iraqi capital forest joins us now live today. Iraq marks the 2nd anniversary of isis defeat but it seems that few people are actually celebrating that victory. Will people here are very much focused on the Current Issues rather than past victories they have turned out in great numbers today here in Tahrir Square continuing their demands for comprehensive change continue their demands for parliament to be dissolved and for the government to meet leave immediately we spoke to one protester who said that its all good at the well that we defeated eisel 2 years ago but in fact the current political establishment poses just as great of a threat he referred to last fridays attacks near Tahrir Square during which over 20 people were killed and Dozens Injured so people here are very much determined to keep going to keep protesting rather than celebrating past victories the president of iraq farm sally also issued a Statement Today commemorating the victory over commemorating those people who gave their lives during the war and. For their support and did also mention they got you called interest where basically writing history right now and all of them to continue this thing in a peaceful way until their legitimate demands are met. I understand that many different groups called for protests today tell us what its like where you are right now and whats been happening. Well it would seem growing numbers arrive here at Tahrir Square the numbers are quite large were only about the level d that we would see on the regular friday weve seen different kinds of groups from different walks of life. So its very most of what weve seen why the thing on president s from iraq south there are several people who have come from different cities from different offices to demonstrate specifically here in various parts because they say that this is where the government is they want to come to baghdad to make their most part of also seen several processions from different political organizations but all of them refused to really say that we are from a certain Political Party they said it was never here and iraq is voicing their shared demands and it also think quite a bit of a presence. From the side me woman which is led by shiite cleric the father of the woman president presence here throughout of that played a role especially last friday when there were different parts of the posters tonight but there again here is quite significant numbers of commitment because theyre wearing the red and they say that they will once again if necessary as you know it ever is needed to protect the focus for now the focus there are peaceful it remains to be seen whether this continues after nightfall which is when violence usually takes place simona felt in baghdad thank you. Have been protests across northeastern india after a controversial citizenship bill passed its 1st stage in Parliament Demonstrators glossaries with burning times and student groups organized and launched shut down across 8 different states the proposed law is geared towards granting citizenship to those fleeing religious persecution but either excludes muslims some say is the governing Hindu Nationalist Party is latest attempt at sidelining muslims in india indias opera house is set to vote on the bill on wednesday is in new delhi she says its likely the bill will pass the opera house too. While there are sharp divisions the government did pass the bill in the lower house with a thumping majority of 311 people watering for it and just about 80 watering against it so it was quite a success there for the Indian Government ruled by a Hindu Nationalist Party we believe its going to be discussed and tabled in the upper house tomorrow or there the government does not have the numbers but they do have allies that if all of the allies of this Party Support this bill in the in the upper house there it is likely to scream through how well one of its allies interesting leave from our astra has just formed a government in the state of maharashtra with the support of the Opposition Party the Congress Party now there is some news that this. 3 seats in the upper house may not support the government but it remains to be seen because it illogically this ally in maharashtra and the Hindu Nationalist Party see eye to eye. To france now where unions are ramping up pressure on the government spend ssion reform plans french airport workers and teachers have joined nationwide strike for a 6th day present a man in my courses is planning to modernize the National Retirement systems but union will force people to work longer at ash about maize in paris so natasha tell us about the situation today. Well this is the 2nd day of a nationwide strike in less than a week and thousands of people are gathering here again in central paris are going to march across the city in protest once again against the governments planned Pension Reforms what people are saying is that they are worried that these Pension Reforms will mean that their payouts in the future their pensions will be reduced and theyll have to work more years were seeing people from all sections of French SocietyHealth Workers transport workers law is all coming together with the same concern so of course theres been lots of disruptions many of these people have gone on strike across france with schools shot Hospital Services here and also the courts but it really is the transport which is becoming a real issue for many people here in france because were now in our 6 day of transport disruption because the transport workers have continued each day to cut services so very many many of the metro lines in paris on working many of the trains are simply at a standstill not going it is very hard to find a bus so people are getting used to it theyre finding other ways to get around bicycles and scooters all the simply working from home if they can but theres no doubt there is an increasing sense of frustration amongst many people in the public we were just talking to some people out a shop metro station who said they really fed up with time to work to work is to walk to work i should say is taking them more than an hour and how is the government responding then. Well the government has been very forward firm that these reforms are necessary because the present amount crawley made this one of his Campaign Promises saying that the Pension System is out of date is inefficient it is costing too much public money and also that is unfair because there are some people who retire special benefits of special schemes according to their profession such as rail workers and that allows them to retire earlier the government says that the this needs to change in the Pension System needs to become a lot fairer but one of the issues for the government is they havent detailed the exact plans for their pension reform yet not really fueling the protests because theres a lot of uncertainty and in fact are frauds as Main Business union has actually come out and called upon the government to try and clarify its plans as these strikes go on because they are causing so much disruption but we are expecting to hear from the Prime Minister ed wofully on wednesday he says he will lay out all the governments Pension Plans on the table thank you for that matter in paris.
