Make it to the knockout stages for the 1st time in history. The model, brazil, and superstar more to crash out at the turn. Plus the heavy metal lug fast fuck in germanys massive metal Music Festival closes, escapes the new arrivals as while those inside tries to enjoy the song. The hello, im terry martin. Thanks for joining us. We begin in the us where for present donald trump is due in court in washington east charged with flossing, to subvert the will of us voters in the 2020 election. Security is being wrapped up ahead of the hearing where trump is expected to plead not guilty. He said the charges against him showed the corruption of the bite and administration. This trumps the 3rd set of criminal charges is seen as the most serious as he campaigns for next years election. Radical left, the democrats, which is definitely clearer. Ashbrook is a political analyst at executive Vice President at the baptist one pound patient here in berlin. I asked her if these new charges posed a genuine threat to trumps, efforts to regain the presidency. Well, not on the basis of the american constitution, terry. Oh, you have plenty of constitutional experts right now trying to figure out whether or not a president s or someone whos running for the highest office in the nation could in fact, will the country from a prison. So the constitution does not meet that crystal clear. But these are very, very serious allegations. Its donald trump effectively against his own country. Thats effectively the summary of a jack smith presented to the public when he announced his indictment. Um, so its going to be difficult a year ahead. Certainly for donald trump, but its a highly polarized country and still 54 percent of the republican based believe this to be the man for the white house. So the legal aspect of this is still unclear, but trump does have rivals for the republican nomination. Will they not be trying to exploit the former president s political troubles for their own advantage as well . We saw something extraordinary yesterday, which is to say that the Vice President for Vice President mike pins on the campaign trail side. The donald trump had attempted to put himself above the constitution and that no man should be elected president , whose role in that way. And that was the 1st public pronouncement that weve heard from my parents who is now running for the presidency. You remember that he had a hard time being, quote, unquote dragged in front of these type of tribunals and the Congressional Committee that was looking into january 6th. So for the Vice President to come out with those strong words, yes, he is trying to compare. Hes trying to capitalize on this latest environment, but i dont think well see a Ronda Sanchez or anybody whos much closer to being in the running for that kind of candidacy and make those kind of comments so split feel there. Now trope remains extremely popular with a large chunk of the electorate. Despite what prosecutors say was an attempt by him, does a bird american democracy, culminating in a january 6th attack on the capital. How do you explain this continued support for trump, despite what happened . A local, were now calling the big lie, which is to say the donald trump, and thats effectively the, you know, understand or the cornerstone of this indictment. I came up with this big lie that he had in fact one to 2020 election. That was incredibly persuasive. To his base, if you recall the people who stormed the capital on january 6, thought that they were legitimately defending their vision in their version of their own democracy. And i think that makes this moment so dangerous. Because if for whatever reason donald trump gets off with a lesser sentence doesnt go to prison. So much of the future of american democracy hinges on this indictment, hinges on what were going to see play out over the next year. Because we also know that donald trump has, and now it was a big piece and then your time that he is re elected to the highest office in the land. He will begin dismantling the bureaucracy and the systems of the state even further caused by attempting to turn the United States even more into a lead slash dictatorship of the country. This is a very dangerous moment, a very dangerous precipice for american democracy. So all eyes in the world should rightly be on what happens over the next couple of months precisely, on this federal indictment. And just briefly, catherine, the prosecutors have called for a speedy trial. How could, how soon could that trial have so well, they are trying to use every legal tool that they have to actually speed this procedure up. But we also her job tomorrow, the defense lawyer for, or one of the lawyers for the Donald Trump Team saying that they in fact we try to slow this process down. They want a very close reading of the documentation and of the quote unquote evidence. So there will be a battle of those 2 camps in terms of how this actually ends up playing out on the the trump team will play for time because there was a moment of immunity ahead of a president ial election wins or legal procedures cannot continue or cannot be brought in, that is what the trump team will be playing for. But all in all this will be a difficult process and procedure. I expect it to take, at least from start to finish at 66 months, 9 months. And whether or not that ends up pointing out fully over the election cycle will depend on how quickly the prosecution can begin their actual testimony, proceedings, jury selection and everything that goes with such a process. Catherine, thank you so much. That was catherine clear ashbrook from the purchased one foundation. Now to new share in the new self declared liter. Theres a said he was given to outside pressure to reinstate civilian rule. In a televised address, be rough muncie on the also condemned sanctions imposed by the west African Regional group decal was the block has threatened to intervene militarily to restore president mohammed by sue to office neighboring nigeria has also pushed up the pressure by cutting off power supply western countries have evacuated embassy stuff, and other citizens due to the turmoil with protests expected today as news your marks its independence day. Issue is just the latest country in africa is unstable. So, hell region to see its government overthrown. A user status as one of the few democracies and this a how appears to be going up in smoke. The west african nation adds its name to a list of countries in the region that have witness cruise in recent years. New share joins neighboring molly, which saw the military stage. A mutiny in 20202021. A 2nd crew took place there that same year, gimme chad and sudan also witnessed their leaders being overthrown. And burkina faso. There were 2 crews in 2022. The instability cost in large part by militant islam is groups has cause particular concern to democracies across the region and especially to those and the block of countries that form part of the Economic Community of west african states. Or equal was anchored by africas most populated country. Nigeria. Equal was also serves as a peacekeeping force. During times of political instability and unrest, Member States send joint military forces to intervene. But the most potent tool in the eco was arsenal is its ability to suspend Member States from its economic grouping. Molly guinea, burkina, faso, a know new share, have all been suspended following cruise. These years one to has been given an ultimatum or by equal us to it has threatens the possible use of force. And there are fears that any military intervention in these or by equal laws could descend into a full scale war in the region. With molly and burkina faso both warning those they would defend their fellow crew leaders and effectiveness of an equal loss force has been questioned by experts who say Adequate Funding is required if it were to have a chance of succeeding. Plus it could be to a worsening of an already dire humanitarian crisis in the region as well as we just saw that report military strong men are now in charge in new cher molly burkina, faso, and other countries in the region. I asked our west african correspondent, elisa diploma in lagos. Why this a hill . So barble to cruise .

And with the reasons be not corruptions, instability, and also aspects of, uh, you know, do you, how does induce i, how do we, that governments being unable to tackle this is judges in the region. And thats why it is. My names in general, so to speak. I just toppling governments, you know, left franklin sense uh, offensive to turn in the west. I think im locked into the crew cab with the stereo. West africa is regional bach eco los has impose sanctions on the chair. Its threatening to intervene. Perhaps militarily, nigeria has cut electricity supplies to the country, etc, etc. Can the qu leaders withstand this kind of pressure as well . Do you have to look at the latest .
