He will morgan on his iran and the bar of state. Donald trump has suffered another legal setback in his bid to overturn the results of the us president ial election. A federal judge dismissed a trunk campaign lawsuit in the crucial state of pennsylvania. He said the claim to prevent state officials from certifying results was without merit. Boss, drums, legal team isnt giving up when the giuliani plans to appeal and says it actually helps speed up their strategy to get the case before the u. S. Supreme court. Meanwhile, twitter and facebook say they will transfer control of the official us president ial accounts to the Incoming Administration of joe biden. All of the 20th of january thats inauguration day. Well as elliot brennan, his Research Associate at United States, United States studies center at the university of sydney. Very good to have you with us. Rudy giuliani seems set to taking this case to the supreme court. The pennsylvania case. Can he get it if its already been thrown out by a federal judge . Look at it looks quite unlikely that going to be what plays out here. The court, the case itself was thrown out very, very quickly. Doesnt have much of a legal standing. The, the words of the judge actually it was almost as if he was insulted by, by having to, to hear the case at all. So it is not a very strong case if they bring in pennsylvania. And of course, the skies and this state is a crucial one in that electoral map. So its looking more and more unlikely, and its been on unlikely since the start that any of these legal avenues were going to bear fruit for the trump campaign. And were really just getting to the point now where theyre running out of options. Theres always been talk of the supreme court. President trump said on Election Night itself, that we will fight this in the supreme court. But its not clear that theres any pathway there for them now. Quite simply, theyre running out of time before the Electoral College has a safe harbor deadline on december. I and then mates on december 14th. If that is so, if it has always been. So why is it that republican lawmaker has a server luck to box on donald trump . So what happened this election while it was a rejection of donald trump . Its quite evident that he has lost the president ial election. It wasnt a rejection of trump ism, we can really say that there was an incredible mobilization behind donald trump, the candidate that brought out record numbers of voters for the republicans. The problem was that democrats brought out even more people. So right now, the republican institutions in this sort of status where they dont want to challenge president trump, because they can see how much power he whales in solving what was previously a demographic problem for republicans. He brought out really high turnout among latino voters, high rates of turnout among africanamericans, and really brought out people who werent involved in the political system previously. So republicans are looking at this situation, knowing that trump, the writing is, is on the wall for president trump. But they know that hes in a situation where for the next 4 years, he could carry an immense amount of power in the way that the Republican Party itself is wrong. So that, or that body, that songs at the moment, ok, yes. And given that hes got this huge support base in the United States health excess. But is he being in questioning the legitimacy of bidens when amongst these vices . Yeah, i wouldnt like to use the word successful because whats happening at the moment is so damaging the amount of turnout the United States had at this election should be a cause for celebration of democracy. Having that level of Voter Participation in a country that doesnt have mandatory voting should be a celebre, tory moment. By immediately calling into question the legitimacy, legitimacy of the democratic dr. It is quite approaching areas moment in the United States. Now where you have so many people who time out for donald trump, who are being told that the elections being taken away from them by going to various forces. So then how much more said joe biden be doing to these claims . I mean, hes saying a bit here and that, but he will be getting out on the front foot. Its a tough question for biden, and the campaign because they know that eventually this will come to them. They know that there is a bureaucracy that has stopped apps to stop this, but at the same time, what they are not getting at the moment is really important from a National Security perspective. As far as on where that joe biden still isnt getting his intelligence briefing, they are working on transitions on things like pandemic control, which is obviously an immensely important issue at the moment. So its really interrupting the administrations start right now. Come what may they will be starting from behind compared to the way that other president s have been able to assume the office on, on inauguration day. The other side of that is that joe biden knows the white house insider. He spent 8 years, there is the Vice President , so he has that sort of advantage behind him. But in terms of National Security terms of the pandemic and the integrity of that Health Care System in the United States. This is quite worrying, but he doesnt want it to devolve into a, into a civil disturbance by coming out too hard against trumps claims while he still is going through his legal mechanisms. Ok eliot browning, great speak to, thanks for taking time to join us there from slipping. Thank you. Theres been a trace says its deployed new pick a full ball as to the middle east. The bay 52 h. Bomb as took off from north dakota on friday. It was not specified where they went, but the planes have been based in castle in the past. Comes days off the pentagon said troops numbers would be reduced in both afghanistan and iraq. U. S. Lots of play. The planes in january join heightened tensions with attack iran. Eisel says it was behind a rocket attacks in afghanistans capital kabul at least 8 people were killed and dozens injured. When more than 20 rockets landed in residential areas near the green zone. Many embassies a base. Their attack happened hours before u. S. Actually was due to hold talks with Afghan Government and taliban negotiators in kaesong 70 deca has more on those talks in doha. My pompei are wrapped up saturday with meeting the taliban delegation involved in intra afghan talks. See, it met an hour earlier with the Afghan Government delegation. These are talks that were integrated back in september, the u. S. Secretary of state where he was here for that as well. But its been a difficult process, moving forward to hold, still stuck on the technicalities of what kind of islamic rule will govern the govern the framework of these tools. I think the message certainly for my pompei will be that they are keen to get the 2 sides to sit down to really get to the difficult issues when it comes to a long lasting cease fire and a power sharing agreement between the 2 sides. Of course you also met the path or is it me or he had a lunch with him and also met with the deputy Prime Minister to be discussed issues like iran. This is a ministration thats been very much an anti iran in a country as a country that has very good relations with iran. Its also one of the issues when it comes to the gulf, blockade the blockade in countries demanding that qatar cuts ties with iran, something they have so far, refused to do. This is also an administration that has said it wanted to perhaps get some movement on the lifting of the blockade that certainly at the moment hasnt happened, not to the full extent anyway. And of course, also in a way pump a oh, of course, and u. S. President donald trump not having conceded defeat but patters. Amir has already called the president joe biden, to congratulate him on his way as bunty most still ahead on this news hour, including held without trial processes in china, is a detention is being used as a political weapon. And opposition demonstrators gathering in pakistan accusing the minutes of stealing the last election also in sports. This football star has put the italian champions back on track. Far away here with the details. Millions of voters in became a faster all costing their ballots in the election. Taking place under the shadow of violence and allegations of voter fraud, president christian cub or a is seeking a 2nd 5 year term in office 2 of his challenges have accused him of trying to rig the vote. Hundreds of thousands of people in the north and east will be unable to vote in sundays elections polling stations. There are closed for fear of attacks by armed groups. That it just is following these elections from the nigerian capital, a blue chip festival at meters of the voting is going there today. When laura, for the past 5 hours, there has been no Major Incident in terms of violence in areas weve monitored so far, especially in the capital were going to go. But there are genuine concerns that armed groups that have been that have wrecked havoc and damage to this poor west african country for in the past 5 years will attempt to disrupt the voting today. However, things appear to be going on smoothly in many parts of the country will still have some hours before polling ends, but so far so good president , couple reams of voted and we expect the 2 main opposition challengers to couple. His presidency will also vote in the next few minutes or so in his speech shortly after the voting. So this is a democratic process cannot be, it should not, and must not allow of the kind of situation to discourage them from voting. Its their civic responsibility. Its about democracy, so east encouraging them to vote in the election. So the voting process is being monitored by international observers, including the echo of the African Union and representatives from europe and other parts of the world who are watching this election closely. And many people in iowa in booking a fossil expect mr. Kapoor to do well. Ok, and what are the main issues that are on vacations minds . The most important issue, of course, is security for the last 5 years. Groups including local militias, have killed more than 2000 people, and now forced more than a 1000000 people out of their homes in the north and east of the country. Now the issue is, is ivory is in a position to deal with the situation for the last 5 years. That was not the case despite the presence of 20000. 00 International Forces in the cell, which of course. d include a break in a fossil. These attacks still continue from local militias to armed groups like affiliated to al qaida in iso who are based either in britain of us or across the border in mali, have been carrying a caring out a tyrants. And recently as recent as 10 days ago, the Security Forces in that country. So a lot of broken up, its are worried about the security situation. This is what the opposition, by the way is campaigning on. They want putting up a street judge president or his failure to rein in these attacks. However, it looks like the opposition is not clearly is clearly not in a position to challenge him unless of course this voting goes to a 2nd row. They failed to agree among themselves to present a formidable opposition to mr. Candidacy by presenting a single candidate to challenge him in this elections. So security basically is the most important thing on the mind of every voting today. And theyre just that many thanks for joining us. There from a page on the kenya. Fast as polling day. Well, its the countrys 2nd democratic elections since the 2014 uprising that ended former president plays campari is 27 year rule. Has been in power ever since hes been campaigning for reelection on his programs of Free Health Care and better roads. His challenges include former finance minister seth are in and can be a go and leader of companies passe. The run up to elections has been marred by attacks by armed groups linked to alqaeda and eisel. These 2000 people have been killed this year and more than 1000000 displaced by violence. Well, lets bring in mecca as a. Hes the executive director of the west Africa Network for peace building. Thanks very much for being with us. 1st of all, just just tell us why were seeing such extreme levels of violence in a country that before cowboy took power. 5 years ago was, was relatively safe and stable. Well, you will also up to share the fact that in the long regina of president les compound, really had been a lot of its growth to militants among the citizens. And these issues that we are bottle of throughout the 27 years of single rule that a lot of people describe us and they are for like every minute from autocratic regime to consolidate that democracy. You know, that is that citizens expressions because the and not well money its, we always go in the form of violence. And then of course we cannot possible is also in the sahara region, which is already xposed to a lot of fun and extremists. And that is why, in this instance, he said election. Each of these candidates will have you soon lose 2 teeth. And of course, need at the start a force if very this and, and john that their electorates. And so when youre looking at the north and the eastern regions of the kenya, fast places where its being declared too violent to actually hold the vote today. How concerned are you that people in this area again, feel even more disenfranchised when disconnected from the Central Government . If hes a very big concern, not just because impact on the credibility of the election on one 5th of the conferees, not going to be able to vote on one part is that they will continue to feel alienated from the missing government. And then on your part is also the one of the extremists that they have actually succeeded. Because if they are on to some foods, then it means that the, the, they are winning the war as it were. Because the state machinery is not in not to allow the citizens to pull, which is what they have been minutes. And that means spreading propaganda, that one 5th of the country is actually in their kids. And they can now begin to develop mechanisms through which they can. He cites not expound control of their attitudes. How likely is it that could for a while now win a 2nd term . Well i think that if its it and the election, if we stick around, if it does, then there is always defend before the opposition to come to get on stand behind one candidate. But its also given the, the precision of the incumbent president , he caught sight cross, he comes across like somebody who more of ive actually seen symbolic uncles of the country with that he signed the level of ethnicity or also i do level of deep in political bytes. And then of course, anything that is an opposition to the former president s, most of the book, you never seem to like that, but is going to be above contests. The fact that it was done have locums get out to be behind one candidates will make it much, much easier for president cup, or it would probably change the 2nd round. Ok mr. Has a great speech. He thanks for joining us there from aca. Thank you. Protesters, employees of 14 guatemalas capital of 100, stormed the Congress Building and set it on fire tear gas was fired to clear the crowds.

His Vice President says the budget should be vetoed, but in the end it is in the countrys interests that we both tender a resignation. Him as president and i as Vice President of the republic. You know, let me say what a moments complained the budget was passed when the country was busy dealing with the devastation caused by 2. Hurricanes. Alongside the pandemic, the World Food Program says guatemala is already one of the most unequal countries in latin america. And on the streets of the capsule, guatemala city, police cracked down hard on protesters. I was walking and they grabbed me. I didnt do anything. I had my constitutional right to strike.

I trued by the opposition party, but they are adamant they have been gathering here for the last several hours. The leaders have not yet said i, but theyre going to be a big show of dollars.

Unargued resigns, he may not budge, come out, but just how much pressure is there on the Prime Minister . Because as you say, this is just the latest in the long line of opposition rallies. Where the government at the moment of fierce gone for a day and their degree to be able to hold on to paul where despite a poor show on the economic front. The opposition, of course, on the other hand, will be trying to use that as a rallying point and saying that the government has failed to deliver on its promises failed to control the spiraling prices of essential got more good days.

Centers for Disease Control is a people not to travel for the thanksgiving holiday on thursday for fear of further spreading the coronavirus. There are millions of people are expected to ignore those warnings. California has imposed a state wide curfew, requiring people to stay at home during the night. The United States is the worst affected country with more than 2000000 infections, and a quarter of a 1000000 deaths is a professor of epidemiology and medicine at columbia university. She says a curfew isnt enough to stop the rise and infections. Putting in place a curfew demonstrates the concern. So we were concerned by the governor of california. I think the curfew in of itself is not sufficient. I think its one piece of the puzzle. I think its important that curfew will hopefully decrease the numbers of people who congregate to gether. It will probably lead to more people staying at home, staying put, not travelling and meeting up with other people outside their home. So i think it will be of value certainly, but i think it needs to be combined with the other measures that we know work, for example, Wearing Masks all the time as well as congregating and socializing with people in ones own house, although not beyond that. So i think its a one more measure that the governor and i felt compelled to go in place because of the concern about whats going on. Now, in this country regarding go with 1000. 00, what would be ideal is theres a, its north transition and that there is an ability between individuals who are now overseeing the covert response to be able to meet with the new administration to put together a smooth transition. And to allow for mobilization and to put in place, hopefully the new and more effective measures to control the problem. Again, this country and Drug Administration has issued imagine see approval for generals. Antibody therapy used to treat president trunk.

The global coronavirus pandemic is dominating the virtual g 20 summit, which is being hosted by saudi arabia. Leaders of the worlds 20 biggest economies are expected to pledge support to poor countries to help pay for the distribution of vaccines medicines and tests. James bays has more this was very different from the normal g 20 summit World Leaders meeting virtually because of covert 19, with the pandemic and the economic fallout from it at the center of all their discussions. This has been an extraordinary year. The covert, 19 and demick has been an unprecedented shock that affected the entire world within a short period of time, causing Global Economic and social losses. Our peoples in economies are still suffering from this shock. Back in 20082009, the g 20 led efforts to get out of the last global recession. Some say they havent shown the same leadership this time. And the u. N. Secretary general antonio good terrace, has been calling for them to extend the Debt Relief Program they passed earlier. This year and to increase funding so that vaccines can reach the poorest people on earth for saudi arabia, the host of the summit. This will probably be seen as a missed opportunity to improve their tarnished reputation. They put on a fly past over riyadh, but the normal pomp, formal dinners and face to face meetings, havent taken place because of the virtual and truncated nature of this years event.

Saying if you say one more word, youre going to regret it. Even than any us citizen and living in the United States, that was still receiving threats. And i was also threatened that im going to be thrown in the sewer system with my brother. This is likely to be president trumps last ever international summit. His 1st foreign visit in 2017 was to saudi arabia, and hes never criticized the kingdoms human rights record. The royal family will know that its likely to be very different when President Biden takes office jamesburg days out.
