Yes, President Joe Biden has hailed the democrats performance in the mid term elections, calling it a good day for democracy. But hes also acknowledged that americans are frustrated with the political divide byes and says hes willing to work with the republicans as his party could still lose control of both the house and the senate. Mike hannah has more from washington. It was in pennsylvania that the predicted red wave was to reveal to be little more than a trickle in a Crucial Senate race. John pittman overcame both a stroke and stiff competition from the trumpet backed celebrity, doctor member at oz, giving the Democratic Party a fighting chance of keeping control of the senate. And President Joe Biden has welcome the preliminary results. While the press to the pundents were predicting a giant red wave, it didnt happen. And i know you were somewhat miffed by my my obsession optimism. But i felt good during the whole process. I thought were going to do fine in the 1994 terms. President bo clinton left 52. How seats in 2010 barack obama last 63 this year. The last could be in the region of 20 making joe biden. One of the most successful 1st term precedence in recent history. The Major Republican Party decree came in florida, which is now a merged as a fully republican stronghold and were in a strong showing governor run de santis easily held onto his position, confirming his status as the most likely challenger to any possible reelection bid by the states most prominent resident, former president , donald trump, would be fun, watch him take on each other. President biden also took note of a noticeable change in both her demographics. Both the registration figures and the results themselves indicate a huge increase. The number of voters between the ages of 18. 30 stood at would appear by the desire to combat Climate Change and an anger at attempts to stop a womans right to choose the money. It also reflects that the president of future generations, impatience and anger at the political rancor of the past. My cana sera, washington, ne, our kids, president of the center for American Progress action fund. He says, democrats had an impressive performance because Many Americans dont trust republicans make America Great again, ideology. People might not be happy with everything thats going on, but they feel good about the effort the president is making and some of the successes. And just as importantly, this selection is really a repudiation of republicans that you know that there was a choice in the selection. And when americans were presented with the alternative, they said were not interested in a very simple sense. Midterms are almost always a referendum on the president. And i think what President Biden and democrats in congress did right, is they put maga, republicans on the ballot this year. And so that this mid term election, it became a choice. And once mega republicans were on the ballot, people were turning out in really record numbers. You know, we saw historic turn out for a Midterm Election in the united states. That doesnt usually happen. And the reason it happened is, a lot of americans are very scared about what micro republicans would do from their power, whether its on abortion, whether its the attack, turn democracy, whether its privatizing or Social Security and medicare. And that was really a motivating factor. We saw people who dont, as you shop in a mid term, actually come out and it changed the outcome of the election. Well, lets take a look at the latest fake. As the Republican Party is in the lead for seats, they are in the house of representatives bought by a small a martin and had been full cost. The senate is still a tossup. Democrats have 48 seats. Republicans have 49 and need to pick up just 2 more to win that majority all eyes on the battleground states of arizona and nevada. Georgia will be holding a runoff in december. With russia says its withdrawing its troops from ukraines key Southern City of cas on the withdrawal is a setback for president Vladimir Putin for several weeks. Ukrainian forces have been advancing in the cause on region. Now. Russian defense minister has ordered forces to retreat from the western bank of the deep pro river near the city of cuts on the federal and the phone. You sent it to us having comprehensively assessed the situation. I propose that we take up defensive position along the left bank of the denay pro river. I understand this is a very difficult decision. At the same time, we will save most importantly, the lives of our troops and the overall combat effectiveness of our forces, whom it is futile to keep on the right bank in a restricted area. In addition, it will free up some forces and means they will be used for active operations, including offensive ones on other front. Ill keep as skeptical about moscow announced withdrawal warning. It may be a trap as that a bag is on the frontlines and cousin. This is how the battle for her song is being fought. Automobile lottery crews targeting Russian Forces just kilometers away. They have the coordinates, its a quick, 2 shots, and then they have to move go get and going good. We had to get out the way really quickly, because the russians can locate where the artillery was fired from. So we have to move away before they return, fire crews can run to their targets from small commercial drones lock back where they are hidden away from russian drones. They can take a moment to rest, thought us, most of the navi, dominate. They are slowly retreating. Russians used all reserves, so they can only reach our frontline, suppose one of us, he has a wife and child at home and says being away from them has been tough. Thrown them is the situation is drones is complicated. They are flying always every day and every hour of the day. It was scary only at the beginning of more hope. I would just do our job even. Whens a fire back at us we dont panic. Were used to war awful form of the weapons, sometimes twice as old as the men who used them. This crew writes a name of their fallen on missiles. We are told the majority of times, the russians fire back quickly. This crew has lost friends with me, faith as a commander. This curious thing is to lose people well ever. One, here he is in the infantry, artillery and engineering brigades is carried to be under the enemys artillery fire. Some russians use everything they got. The crew stays out of sight and awaits orders and coordinates to move and fire was brushed. Certainly this is a war of drones. In most cases, hardly fire adjustments are made from drones. Bo small commercial ones and larger ones have made the difference. Lank. Its just easier. The front lines have moved quickly of late. These trenches were once facing the enemy, but so horrible a bluish russians were close a few months before. But now the front line is moving jets and drones are always flying overheads. But for observation only, mostly its russian drones. We dont see them, but they keep flying. Life is basic in the trenches, but theyre waiting here. They believe in a matter of time, they were retake her son, and if they do, it will be the defining moment of this war. I said, beg, ill jazeera her son, have a falcon. Her is a russian defense, a military analyst. He has more on what the announcement of the withdrawal from cas on nina, for russias war and ukraine. The terrible blow actually makes no sense. And it made no sense before. No reports of russian generals were pressing the clam to do to withdraw from the care. Sunbridge had but politically, this is a disaster and its a developing guys, a disaster in the russian sale. So called patriot big internet chat and telegram channels. Another out words a so political, its very embarrassing Government Military and makes sense. And thats why most likely russian generals press through such a decision, this is not a russian defeat, since they apparently will be withdrawing in an organized manner. Ukrainians will be advancing very cautiously, are afraid of some kind of a rush and trickery. But the decisive moments may come when the winter will freeze the sea of dirt right now because in gulf the entire ukraine and russian regions around it. And when the sco cobras foot ends with the frost, turning this dirt into concrete kind of thing, and the tanks and trucks can move easily again through fields and dirt roads, then theres going to be the real action coming, which may be decisive in this war. I believe the ukrainians will be poised for massive offense if theyll try at least to do that and push the russians really hard out of your grade.
