Arrogance for fuelling may have in the middle east and repeats his call for all foreign troops to leave. Some filipinos to 5 accusations and despite more volcano warnings about an explosive eruption in. Russia what an eruption is story that when aims of those who will lead the prosecution of u. S. President donald trump during his impeachment trial in the senate have just come out House Speaker nancy pelosi made the announcement on capitol hill just under an hour ago the man who lead the charge is adam schiff the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee which held the 1st hearings. The trumpet allegedly threatened to withhold military aid to ukraine in exchange for an investigation into his political rival job by the trial is expected to begin on thursday when u. S. House democrat schiff says that the senate has an obligation to the American People to conduct a just trial with witnesses. Additional evidence continues to come to light that not only has bolstered an already overwhelming case but has also put in additional pressure i think on the senate to conduct a fair trial mr mcconnell has taken to saying that the senate should only consider the closed record that comes from the house and as if what the senate is is not a trial but an appeal from a trial but of course the senate the framers had in mind a real trial with witnesses and evidence and of mcconnell makes this the 1st trial in history without witnesses it will be exposed for what it is and that is an effort to cover up for the president the empathy is making a strong if possible case to protect and defend our constitution to seek the truth for the American People im very proud and honored that the 7 members is doing wish members have accepted the theory of responsibility again to protect and defend for the people defending our democracy where we live in the white house in just a few moments where ralph is there is kelly how could his standing by but 1st lets go to capitol hill where that announcement was made and is there is what is your castro is there so heidi we know now the names of these the 7 impeachment managers the emphasis House Speaker pelosi said is on litigators what happens next. Well they will be officially approved in a little while when the full house votes on a resolution that would name them officially as the prosecutors who would lead the case against trump in the trial which will take place in the senate before that this evening is when we expect a ceremony really a parade of these very managers carrying the printed articles of impeachment in and 2 by 2 crossing the floor of the u. S. Capitol from one side where the u. S. House of representatives meets to the other where the Senate Chambers are found and then delivering those articles to the senate which would officially kick off the trial phase of impeachment now from there that will be completely in the court of Mitch Mcconnell the Republican Senate leader who has said that the he his members should in short order receive instructions on exactly what will take place next as early as tomorrow perhaps we could see the chief Supreme Court justice come over to capitol hill from the u. S. Supreme court which is just across the street he could be sworn in as early as tomorrow as the presider of the impeachment trial as well of those 100. 00 u. S. Senator sworn in as the jurors it is important to know that the oath that the senators will be taking is to be impartial jurors however weve seen Mitch Mcconnell the leading republican again who has said that he plans to be in lockstep with the president and the white house in trying to clear trumps name now hes backed off a little bit of that within sunni backlash that came after he made those statements and now hes left open the question of whether or not new witnesses and new evidence may be presented at the trial that is what demo. Ratz want they need to convince at least 4 of their republican colleagues in the senate to agree with them in order to make that happen there are in fact 4 moderates who have said they are at least open to the idea and just one example of the new evidence the democrats say is absolutely important in this trial just last night we saw the house of representatives publicly release a new trove of unseen before evidence from one of the associates of the personal attorney of president trying to reach reality and among these documents are handwritten notes that specifically say get the lewinsky to announce investigations into joe biden and also democrats are zoning in on a letter from giuliani to the president of crane same that giuliani was operating with the knowledge and consent of the president in that campaign to get the announcement of the investigation into joe biden again that is at the very heart of this impeachment effort the accusation of trying to use the power of his office to get dirt on his political rival to help him trump when reelection adrian heidi many thanks indeed just down the road of the white house is our White House Correspondent kimberly how could kimberly the president uncharacteristically quiet on the on twitter this morning until just after 10 weeks had just the one tweet from him here we go again this is following the announcement of the the the 7 impeachment managers here we go again another cold job by the do nothing democrats all of this work was supposed to be done by the house not the senate is he rattled could bully. Well i dont know if hes rattled or if you just cant resist he cant help himself if you will i mean up until now youre right he had been relatively quiet the question became is the president going to weigh in and try and influence this trial or is he going to be quiet i think we got our answer because as the House Speaker nancy pelosi was announcing those impeachment managers the president was weighing in making sure that he was a part of that news cycle now its very important to understand the president has been impeached that happened in the house of representatives the senate trial is about removing him from office and so this trial the debate back and forth about calling witnesses the president why does he not what these witnesses to be called theyre members of his Administration National security adviser john bolton the former National Security adviser is one of them could potentially be called the president is already saying that hes going to try to exert influence and block that testimony as we saw him doing with other witnesses in the house and the house of representatives citing executive privilege that this could harm u. S. National security of this is something democrats weve already heard in the last hour are going to try and push back on they say that they are looking for these witnesses to come forward but thats a risky sort of calculation for them if you will also because there is this movement within the republicans are up on capitol hill in the senate to say if you get witnesses then we get witnesses and we want to call hunter biden the former Vice President joe bidens son why was he sitting on the board of an Energy Company in ukraine thats a big question mark 2 so in the midst of all of this this is still being sorted out its very clear that the president is going to exert what leverage he does have whether its on social media or with trying to withhold testimony in order to claim that he has committed no wrongdoing one more thing very quickly adrian were watching very carefully in this next hour the u. S. President is going to have a signing ceremony for the 1st phase of the china trade deal were watching very carefully to see if not only on twitter if he weighs in on this issue of the proceedings in the senate when he participates in that ceremony. Our White House Correspondent kimberly hallock at reporting live from washington kimberly many thanks indeed russias Prime MinisterDmitry Medvedev and his government have resigned it comes after president Vladimir Putin use his annual state of the nation address to announce a plan for political reform husin says the parliament should choose the countrys Prime Minister but the president should keep wide ranging powers protests calling for reform erupted last year after all position politicians were barred from running in local elections hootin said he would hold a referendum on any changes to the constitution. As far as our joint work is concerned with mr medvedev if its been 8 years since hes been leading the government which we have an agreement its clear what the Prime Ministers duties are and what the president s duties are i have asked him to be involved in Security Issues and that should be done in the near future. In this context it is clear that the government of the Russian Federation can give our country the possibility of making all the necessary decisions and in these conditions i suggest it would be correct according to articles one in 17 of the Russian Federation in the current composition to resign i thank all those who have participated in the work of the government and certainly to future decisions made by the president of the Russian Federation i was there as alexandra got for has more from moscow. This also the same time a means that the me to my that hes not going to be appointed a new Prime Minister there will be someone else and that a someone else might be also the person that is going to be a of law to me to put in success or because what he said in his speech to the federal assembly as well apart from shifting powers war towards the parliament is a dead there is not going to be 3 times running the of for a president of russia which excludes hume from a disarray saw he answer the question that was bothering a lot of people for years is he going to run for president did 2000 a 24. 00 soul most the possibly he is and not going to do dead at the sametime this doesnt need that hes going to be completely out of the picture with this a new constitutional reforms even though he says that theyre all of present will state very strong also give a some space for putting in staying in power or at least being in control of the things are going on in the russia and know a lot of people are speculating for years who might be the person and that put is going to in trust and support in in the next elections an acid to that question is malta ball and actually there is a no consensus someones to russian analyst of who this a person might be irans president has reiterated his call for all foreign troops to leave the middle east and some rouhani said that american troops are not safe in the region and for the 1st time hes also warned that european soldiers quote may be in danger to call little pommie stop making mistakes return to the jay c. P. O. Way we are ready return and choose a path that leads to the stability and security of the region an american trooper today is insecure and tomorrow the european soldier may face the same insecurity lets establish security we dont want insecurity in the world we want to get out of this region of course not by war but by wisdom lets walk a path that is to the interest of the world and the region. Well those comments come off germany france and britain call for action against iran for violating the 2050 nuclear deal but president rouhani accuses the signature is of failing to respect the Nuclear Agreement with calls for more protests at home irans president is urging National Unity demonstrates is angry the military admitted that it shot down a ukrainian aircraft off the days of the nile. Afshin shah is a sunni electorate International Relations and middle east politics at the university of Bryan Fischer he says that domestic pressure may force irans leaders to the negotiating table. We have seen the admission of defeat by the view that would get that over the last 2 or 3 years or 3 prisons for on and german before congress a blacksheep Foreign Policy be for one of the most important point the consensus made in the European Union and despite the defiant this was the resistance the offer of the United States thing from a truck into our you made it very clear despite the disagreement with the most important power in the globe they want to maintain their commitment for for the deal was the moment you want to bring basically a net Foreign Policy to move the moment you want to bring in a new Missile Program or Defense Program into the equation youre going to take some very serious impediment having said that if you look at the history of Islamic Republic over 40 years any time they faced with an existential crisis very quickly they seem to be willing to make some serious fundamental compromises and based on what is happening at the moment in iran iran seems to be 6 to 9 weeks and thirds of the people argue that you know never ever been over the last 40 years so given the internal political dynamics given the legitimacy crisis there are facing at the moment and the pressure from to with it if not completely fall mitch or you dont to go back to the negotiation well for everything that is the limits despite the fact that they would be willing to negotiate i very much doubt that they would like to be proper about Defense Programs.

Is the general director of the libyan think tank the subject institute he says that enforcing the libya arms embargo would be more effective than another peace conference. The fact isnt berlin a simple i think there are very very different measures and they are sticks for what it will really be progress of libya the 1st and and most glaring obvious one is that an arms embargo that has been violated every last one months or many many years before would really kind of take away the military means to continue this war and then that would be a better pretext to begin talks in berlin but if you allow for the proper stock macit i mean to really our regular supply lines to prune you drones online havent you you know that has given the superiority there on t
