A u. S. House committee is meeting to finalize the rules for the Impeachment Vote against president dilma chum members of the House Rules Committee will decide on how much time to allow for the debates before the vote which is likely to happen a way to stay now the democratic controlled house is expected to vote in save all the impeachment that would then lead to a trial in the Republican Controlled Senate the next year well donald trump has been tweeting our White House Correspondent kimberly how it will give us more on that shortly but 1st lets go to Heidi Joe Castro on capitol hill to heidi what are we expecting it to happen where you are today. Which really the debate is already raging before the House Rules Committee here at the capitol and in a sense theyre debating the rules of the debate because they were all forward looking to tomorrow when we expect that historic vote on the full house floor where donald trump will likely be impeached. By congress only the 3rd sitting u. S. President to have an pietschmann to proceed to this stage that is expected to pass along party lines of democrats controlling that chamber they will be voting on these articles of impeachment which are abuse of power and obstruction of congress both tied to accusations that trump withheld vital security aides to ukraine and deny that countrys president a visit to the oval office all the leverage to gain political dirt from ukraine on trumps own political rivals here in the u. S. Now again that Impeachment Vote is expected tomorrow and because democrats control the house of representatives it is expected to pass which then sets the stage for a trial of impeachment of donald trump which will take place in the senate in january now that chamber is controlled by republicans the president s own party and the Top Republican in the Senate Mitch Mcconnell has just rejected the democrats plan calling more in more witnesses to the impeachment trial there had been an effort to get members of trumps innermost circle to testify these are people who may have information on the president s motives when he withheld that security aide from ukraine but they have been thus far blocks from testifying by the white house as part of this impeachment inquiry Mitch Mcconnell just said that he will not be calling those witnesses he says that it is the House Democrats fault for having done sloppy homework its the houses obligation to build an arm plug. If they lived. Thats got this done its job or leap into the breach and search desperately for was to get the guilty. That would hardly be impartial justice. Again its notable that it is the white house that is stopping that has stopped those witnesses from custer 5 before the house despite the efforts of House Democrats to compel those testimonies and in fact polling shows that the majority of americans want these witnesses to share their testimonies in a senate trial and in fact even 2 thirds of republicans have said they wish to hear from these witnesses who have been silenced thus far julie and is joe castor there live with the latest from capitol hill heidi thank you well President Trump was taken to twitter in the last hour he says and i called impeachment poll numbers are starting to drop like a rock now that people are understanding better what this whole democrat scam is all about lets go live to our White House Correspondent can be halted in washington d. C. Hi there kimberly so does President Trump believe the impeachment process maybe is even strengthening his base. It certainly is a mess as the president has been sending in light of the National Poll numbers that seem to show that despite the weeks of hearings despite the weeks of damning testimony give the president the Public Opinion remains divided in fact the president quoting republican senator in one of his latest tweets saying they the dems dont have anything the whole things a joke its time to get the president exonerated this is a reality t. V. Show president of course he has the business accu men in real estate but he also knows how to manipulate and massage a message and thats what weve seen this president doing throughout this process hes been his most vocal defender it seems to be working for him in fact there was a poll that came out yesterday a National Poll that indicated in fact that when the president was up against some of the top democratic rivals in the 2020 president ial election but there is the potential that he could win reelection weve also seen the case of one democrat who has supported the Republican Party in the midst of this impeachment inquiry so this is very unusual given the fact that when we had impeachment for bill clinton we did not see these types of defections this is certainly something that the president is seizing on but its also leaving Many Americans wondering whether or not the impeachment process is really working as it was intended democrats believe that theyve made a very strong case the Public Opinion has not moved republicans say that this has been a very strong case against the president said that the evidence was cherry picked what both sides seem to agree on is that the process may not be working as the Founding Fathers intended but certainly in terms of how they believe it should be working there is certainly disagreement and division in a very polarized america came in how could they live with the latest from washington d. C. The white house can really thank you.

On the ground there hasnt been any major change any advancement for neither side of the warring factions or the ground and i think unless those cities send the troops and weapons they vowed to send to the front lines but on the other hand this could be read in terms of the media war of their psychological war between the 2 warring factions because this declare ration of Mass Mobilization of the.

A media war to intimidate and test their enemies the latest declaration was on thursday by have to himself declaring the 0 hour war encouraging his forces to enter tripoli so this declaration by the citys tool for Mass Mobilization is a kind of counter declaration to also intimidate have to us forces who are now trying to push closer to the city center.

In order to find a sustainable and permanent solution to this issue we have to take global steps forward in cooperation but we havent yet reached the desired level of global ownership of the crisis our hope and pray that the Global Refugee Forum here in geneva. Mental in terms of implementing our previous commitments and the only solution to the outstanding problem of the refugee influx crisis coming out of syria is far from being confined but it is a political solution this is a burden that we have been bearing for the last 9 years we need to find a formula that allows the refugees to remain in their mother lands and the ones that have already come to turkey to be peacefully returned and resettled in their motherland hundreds of refugees essential michelle are protesting outside the offices of the Un Refugee Agency have been demonstrating for 2 days now demanding Better Living conditions of the camps and i get this the refugees have been deported from libya thats a common route into europe across the Mediterranean Sea an escalation in libyas conflict since april forced many of them to return to nation.

Last week fighters i lived with i still crossed the border from mali and killed 7 to one of their colleagues. Isnt it security conditions are deteriorating on the border with mali terrorists are attacking Common People and mostly tribal leaders kidnapping in executing them terrorist target Army Personnel with explosives. The border between egypt and mali stretches for hundreds of kilometers too long to be protected by the understaffed and ill equipped armies in the region. Say its a situation exploited repeatedly by armed groups with devastating results on one of the poorest countries in the world. Insecurity always has a heavy mental toll this is patrolled as a metaphor they know that a skilled person cannot be productive thats why education is their prime target. The u. S. Economy to live is taking a hit these days fewer customers come to the market here into liberia apart from the shortage of supplies people like to impoverish for the. Benefit of the lot is only lack of security in till a barrier has gravely affected businesses many of the shops have closed down as commercial areas are always targeted how can businesses function in a situation where security is deteriorating day by day. Apart from the 720 just saw just killed last week more attacks were recorded in brooklyn a fossil and molly. Money its our light armed groups have also been active in the region regional armies are struggling to prevent these attacks because off like enough manpower and equipment to cover vast territories the United Nations has a large presence of more than 15000. 00 troops in mali alone france also maintains thousands of troops in the region yet countries like mali and algeria continue to suffer from these attacks and thats not only coursing concerns from the local population but also on much of it aimed at french troops blaming them for not doing enough to protect civilians but he agrees aljazeera.

Hold some of his meetings here the senate and some government offices have relocated it will take a least 3 years before the move is complete. New funding the project is the last least idea is born we are paying for our own election so im sure our money will be found to be the infrastructure of the capital. Some critics suggest the decision to move the capital from bujumbura which remains the countrys commercial center could be linked to its seen as a stronghold of the opposition a general election is scheduled for next year and people still remember riots in the streets. Because of a disputed pauline 2015. Was a decision taken while they even there is no more premises for the offices to be there to be located there i think it may even be very clear water happened in.

Those who live in good tega expect big changes its headed home to less than 1000000 people both we talked to say they hope there will a patient of the capital will benefit them quickly one good job better house Running Water and so one economy its going to take a while to realize the expectation. These traders believes if more people move to get tega the more money shall make them that they are not that it would be good to get people to help us to build our businesses and im already making more sales than before because its in a Central Location strategy say mob rule indians would be able to Access Government Services easily but implementing this ambitious plan that could cost billions of dollars in a country with limited resources and so many priorities is likely to be a difficult task Catherine Sawyer aljazeera.
