It calls for a cease fire in ethiopia is a gray region where hundreds have died and thousands are fleeing into sudan. Hello u. S. President elect joe biden has called Donald Trumps refusal to concede the president ial election an embarrassment but biden says nothing will stop the transfer of power in january that will see him take on the worlds most powerful job thats despite the trumpet ministration reportedly refusing to assist the president elects Transition Team and blocking them from accessing vital resources biden himself has been calling some of americas biggest allies including the leaders of the u. K. Germany and france who all congratulated him on winning the election. I just think its an embarrassment. Quite frankly. The only thing that. How can i say this tactfully i think it will not. Help the president s legacy. I think that i know from my discussions with foreign leaders of us for that they are hopeful that the United StatesDemocratic Institutions are viewed once again as being strong and endure and what i think at the end of the day. You know its all going to come to fruition in january 20th bidens comments came after the u. S. Sector states joined the chorus of republican voices denying joe bidens election win by pompei i was asked if he would assist a smooth handover and he gave the sunset there will be a smooth transition to a 2nd trimester action right were ready that the world is watching whats taking place that were going to come of the votes when the process is complete theyll be electors selected theres a process the constitution lays it out pretty clearly the world should have every confidence that the transition necessary to make sure that the state department is functional today successful today and successful with the president whos in office on january 20th a minute after noon will also be successful meanwhile the u. S. Supreme court has begun hearing arguments in a case which could strip 20000000 people of medical insurance justices have already signaled that unlikely to strike down all of the Affordable Care act a key piece of president obamas legacy is known as obamacare President Trump and other republicans want the law struck down. And fisher joins us live from washington d. C. Alan lets start with the White House Trump is still refusing to concede but biden remains confident the transition to power will be smooth. Exactly i mean there are reports that suggest that they were trying white houses told various Government Agencies and departments they must not cooperate with any transition planning while the result in their view is still in doubt so that would slow things down and this goes back to 60 years when there has been transition planning but more particularly after 911 the 911 report Commission Said that because there was a delay in getting the transition up and running because of the legal actions in florida that me of hampered americas safety in the interim so that is why those on the democratic side a very keen to make sure that this process gets under way what might pompeo said some are saying it was a bit of a joke particularly as he laughed immediately afterwards but it certainly shows how trump loyalists and might compare with certainly current himself as one of those certainly view this process that its all about making sure that every legal vote is counted but there are legal actions to be taken my point here was also speaking with one eye on 2024 he would like to run for the presidency then even though he has openly declared that everyone seems to suggest that thats what he wants to do and to do that he also needs the trump base so to be seen to be a loyal to donald trump at the moment isnt a bad move but certainly those around donald trump keep saying that the whole process has to go forward just how long that process will take is slightly concerning to the democrats but joe biden says theyre pushing ahead and their determination is that theyll be ready to go on day one and i mean whats been happening with the challenge to the Affordable Care act in the Supreme Court. Of course you remember just over a week or so ago we were talking about equally buying and getting her on to the Supreme Court which was a big call of dont transfer for the election the reason was that a week after the election the Supreme Court would talk about the Affordable Health care that there would be a hearing about it now from what we have heard to over the last few hours it would seem to suggest that 2 of the conservative justices arent really keen to do much more to the outset only not to dismantle it which means that protections for people with preexisting conditions would stay in place so youre talking about millions of americans who are covered by that. It could be by herself she cannot play their cards close to the chest but the fact that 2 of the republican appointed justices people who consider the conservative wing of the court are saying that the we seem to be edging toward saving the act not taking action that congress itself didnt want to take suggests that could be if 54. 00 majority in favor of preserving the act as it is at the moment that will upset many republicans it will upset donald trump as well who thought he was going to get rid of it but of course its all up in the air until the justices make their final decision only people trying to read the tealeaves at the moment but it seems to be that joe biden will walk in to the white house in january and the Affordable Care act will still be in place although it could be june before the Supreme Court makes a ruling no one on the case that its been hearing today and fisher thank you very much. Russian peacekeeping troops have been deployed to now going to care about a deal to end 6 weeks of fighting the disputed region is internationally recognized as part of azerbaijan but is controlled by Ethnic Armenians as harrys who spent the day celebrating whats been seen as a win delivering swathes of territory to their country and in neighboring armenia its been described as a disaster hard to have me reports from here about. Like it or not. Its a nation in shock many baffled that their media has signed an agreement they see as humiliating and for some the anger was too much to contain by Early Morning protestors started to arrive in front of parliament. I dont know how this nation behaves this man says calling on people to rise up emotions were high and soon the anger turned into calls for a Prime Minister. To resign among the people here veterans of the 1st war thereby journey in the early 1990 s. Mothers of soldiers who recently died and displaced people from nagornokarabakh. Mina and her mother bear to are dismayed they left their hometown of stepan occurred. By jan at the beginning of the fighting her father stayed behind the other to watch hearts as many articles on the one he signed this agreement didnt ask our opinion he signed in secret its a crime i want to return there my trained general there im not having a normal education because of current virus and the war i will only go back if the children of the Prime Minister come and live there with me. Like everyone here nina and bert i want the agreement to be cancelled for dinner 1200 soldiers lost their lives order past 6 weeks has now also lost all 7 as every region surrounding the un clave it had occupied since 994 as well as a ton of shusha in the corner. Its hard to swallow this is a very difficult time for me and for Prime Minister and he called by now you was already under intense International Pressure just signed a cease fire agreement and now is having an even harder time at home explaining to people that this was the best option. In the Current Situation there was no chance of making another decision a plan to give more details such as why and what the reason was behind. Last months events i cant do it right now for one simple reason because stopping military actions is the main focus right now and if i Say Something i couldnt danger people but bush in the end hasnt managed to convince many people even among those who are calling for his resignation yes. Im an ordinary mother but what happened is horrible every day we were given good news and suddenly this happens good or bad i dont know but i dont want an agreement at the price of all those innocent children who died it should have been done earlier he needs to answer our questions some of the russian peacekeepers have already arrived in the media they will be deployed in the corner to guarantee to cease fire but for armenians this sense of loss that azerbaijan felt for nearly 3 decades is just beginning to seep in but at that hamid. As president says the file and what he calls a years long occupation as some have been reports from the capital. Of. Years in the making johnnys or jubilant after the announcement of a deal to end the conflict in the. Even physically stop some people from showing their joy 100 thousands of displaced people who wanted to return seems possible. To return to the place where my mother grandmother were born. From. And years to look to me i cant even describe this feeling. Expressed. After steady gains on the battlefield since september the deal has been made possible largely because of other by johns advanced military power the president acknowledged his forces as he declared the conflict over. Heroes as a result of their heroes and selfsacrifice we return to our learns. That soldiers can recover soon and return to normal life i live called it an armenian defeat agreed with russian relation to the deal hold on to the areas of. The feeling that hes fighting well i mean year has agreed to withdraw from several other nearby areas in the coming few weeks russian peacekeepers will remain in the region for an extended 5 years in return either by john will stop its advances and the guns on the front lines have fallen silent. As it would join the army that we are capable to liberate our we have liberated. Now we also showed that we have the political will to stop hostilities and to continue by negotiations many people in the very capital dont completely trust russian peacekeepers and wanted their forces to retake all of the disputed region the Turkish Foreign minister called the deal a secret success as the president hinted peacekeepers in addition to the russians but its not yet decided exactly how those troops will be deployed. Azerbaijani say a few weeks of war have achieved more than 2 decades of diplomacy but maintaining peace is not going to be easy as thousands of people have been killed in both sides and more than a 1000000 have been displaced in both armenia and azerbaijan some of the others they are packing.

Well as begun on building what could become one of the Worlds Largest urban parks the project will become a counterweight to mexico citys polluted air and sprawling footprint but its creation has still been controversial as John Heilemann reports. When its close government cancelled the 13000000000. 00 airport midway through its construction it caused immense controversy have a look at the now planning to put in its place one of the biggest urban parks in the world if it works out to be twice the size of manhattan architect and yet here to vote here is the man with the vision what a little out obama said a lot of where. We are going to recover bodies of water and that will help of recreate a bit of what the valley of mexico looked like before an experience that even though he shouldnt be will be almost new mexico citys inhabitants. 500 years ago vast areas of the capital were underwater to the extent that a prime mode of transport was the canoe the park aims to bring some of that prehistoric flavor back recovering 600 hectares of lakes and lagoons but theyll be more than just water on offer the plan is for basketball courts 5 a side football pitches gyms picnic and camping areas to the hope is that some of mexico citys poorest neighborhoods which partly surround the park will benefit with bus routes planned from those communities because we will not do it which is a story many of us think that its a bit of social justice bringing cultural support and Environmental Facilities to population to where traditionally abandon or very little care for.
