Come in says information from the cias help the Russian Security services for the terror plot in St Petersburg president has phone donald trump to thank him members of an eye silver cell were planning a Suicide Attack at the citys cathedral but the f. S. B. Security service says it was able to stop it a rest seven people and seize homemade bombs or to mattick rifles and extremist literature the kremlin says putin told trump he would repay the favor or the man leading the investigation into whether russia meddled in the u. S. Election is being accused of illegally obtaining emails the accusation against special counsel has been made by a lawyer from the trump team which was set up to help the president strands mission into the white house but a spokesperson for the says that he and his team have done nothing wrong and the claims are an attempt to discredit the whole investigation is looking into whether the russian government helped donald trump win last years president ial election so lets get more on this now from tom ackerman in washington what more do we know about the allegations leveled at lolla. Well those complained that the team had illegally accessed these letters or emails thousands of emails from a Government Agency was what were directed at a House Intelligence Committee republican Led Committee and that will presumably further stoke the fire in those committees among Congressional Republicans who want to apparently curtail the investigation not only at the at the level of the special counsels office but also within congress itself Many Democrats say they fear that the that the republicans are just looking for further excuses to curtail the investigation the white house response to this complaint which came from a lawyer from the Transition Team was to say that well we dont expect this investigation to go on any longer because theres nothing to it so theyre trying to minimize that but the white house lawyers will be. Lawyers rather will be meeting with mullers Team Next Week and well see how this develops further. And the other development out of washington is news that the cia tipped off the kremlin about an attack in the russian city of St Petersburg which than russian Security Forces were able to prevent what is the reaction that likely to be to this is this standard protocol or will people think there is something unusual. Well it is not standard for an open admission by one one one government to thank another Intelligence Service its also interesting that thats in juxtaposition to the time earlier in Trumps Administration where he welcomed the im the Russian Foreign minister and ambassador to say that and and conveyed to them some intelligence information that the United States had received from israel something that the russians were not happy about theyre not happy about sources and methods revealed but in this case the fact that putin and trump are displaying this these mutual displays of public affection i think only serve to help trump convey with his Political Base here in the United States that there really is nothing to this investigation of collusion as alleged by many people who suspect all of these ties amounting to a collusion during the Election Campaign so again well see the next development here the interesting thing is will the United States actually or will it will the russians actually announce the next time they provide information to the United States that will be interesting to see remember this is the eve of Trumps National security message as mandated by congress on monday in which he is expected to make some sharp claims or sharp criticisms of russia which his National Security advisor just laughs last week called a revisionist power which is abusing its its its power in this information and propaganda so its an interesting combination of circumstances and rhetoric it is thank you very much tom ackerman and washington d. C. And watching the news hour live from london much want to tell you about south africas Ruling Party Congress formally nominates two candidates to lead them jacob zuma exwife and his Deputy President also spains Prime Minister makes a rag Campaign Stop in catalonia ahead of thursdays crucial regional polls and then in sport n.

Now a state of emergency has been declared in the south and southern chile after a landslide devastated an entire village at least five people were killed and fifteen others a missing after dozens of homes were destroyed in via santa lucia and reports. Of devastation as far as the eye can see to original greed triggered a landslide that tore through the village. On saturday thousands remain without electricity rescue workers search for survivors. I had that uncles who went missing i have it on who died. Part of the valley was engulfed by a huge amount of mud from surrounding mountains the villages around one thousand kilometers south of the capital city jago local media reported a usually heavy rain during the previous twenty four hours president Michelle Bachelet declared a state of emergency in the area.

Well in all the news there is now around three hours of voting left in the president ial election that will determine if chile remains on its center left course or joins a tide of latin american nations turning to the right in recent years as a choosing between conservative billionaire and former president Sebastian Pinera and the center left candidate. Economy is expected to weigh heavily on the minds of voters with g. D. P. Forecast to expand just one point four percent this year this is the slowest pace in eight years. Well pinero who served as president from twenty two thousand ten to twenty fourteen is a conservative billionaire whos proposing to cut taxes on business it was seen as the frontrunner and took thirty six percent of the vote in last months first round poll but he faces a stronger than expected challenge from.

But its very interesting because stamping it out who is a conservative hes very much a man who believes in the free market and for competition to order to help citizens have what they need in Health Education and especially in Pension Funds but hes been forced to move now much more to the center to try to broaden his Political Base and win over some of those people who voted either for. Or for the even more to the left a group that voted for out for his competitor now the media on his part has to do two things hes got to try to prove to chileans that he really is able to govern that he has the ability to do so since he is a political outsider and he has very very little experience compared to india also has to try to convince the people on the left that he will make good on his promises to accelerate all these transformations all these social reforms that were started by president.
