A remote region of afghanistan where local troops are trying to maintain security without the help of u. S. Forces.

President says he will leave the white house if the Electoral College confirms the victory of president elect joe biden. Speaking for the 1st time since the election, trump said it would be a mistake if biden was confirmed, adding it would be quite difficult to concede. Trump repeated his unfounded claims about the election being stolen from him because of fraudulent votes. Bidens inauguration of course the january 20th if this is what you just show you, certainly it will certainly will. And you know that, but i think that there will be a lot of things happening between now and the 20th of january, mike hanna, with more reporting on this from washington d. C. Certainly its the 1st time as well that President Trump has explicitly said that he will leave the white house should as this is expected, the Electoral College confirm the president elect biden as the countrys next president. Now, President Trump saying that hes still not going to concede, insisting that theres a lot of battles still to go continuing to insist with no evidence whatsoever that the, the election was for talent. But all of that ends affectively when the Electoral College votes in mid december, basically all the electors in their respective states will confirm the votes, which at the present stands for 306. 00 Electoral College votes for joe biden. 232. 00 for donald trump. Now at that point to President Trump saying he will accept the Electoral College is a decision, though if he considers it as a fraud. Well, thats not strictly true. He has got no option, but to accept that decision that is a constitutional point at which the next president is confirmed by the Electoral College. The next step is for congress to certify all of those votes, and then the inauguration on january the 20th one must point out as well. That in more than 30 cases brought by the Trump Campaign or other republican organizations, have been defeated in the countrys courts. So certainly he has no grounds whatsoever would appear to continue to cry, fraud, and to continue to cost any doubt whatsoever on the result of the selection. But hes going to continue to do so. It would appear now, thousands of farmers are marching towards the indian capital, new delhi, defying orders from police. They are protesting against new laws, which they say will affect their livelihoods. Some have marched as far as 200 kilometers to get to delhi. Others have been stopped by the border blockades. Are all calling for the government to roll back the laws that remove guaranteed minimum prices for their prodigies. On the line, weve got to run a child who is a reporter for the news.

They have created a layered body gating, so to speak. And on the opposite side we have the marching farmers. You know, they are from mostly from the state, from punjab. Then how do you are not done yet . As i stated, the National Capital. And if i give you the garden state does, they have decided to stage another which is a strip in this sort of thing in front of the Delhi Police Officers who have. d joined the national government, so there doesnt look like anything that will really stop the people there. And i mean, we look at pictures of the sheer numbers that have come out in force and who really dont know quite backing down. Yeah, i mean the number it is, it is really shit. I mean it is a swelling as the odd. 1 thing because we have more than motor groups of farmers joining who was left out, you know, behind. So they are joining. 2 over here and what is happening in the world is that they would actually teach border points for the farmers, which they have decided to enter the National Capital. Does not just this board or the other team of Fatah Organization are at the board of points and what they. d are similar you know, if i say being deployed by the delhi police to stop the farmers from marching into the national guard. d some of it also includes the fighting, be our guest just quickly run. What is the government response to any of that . Some not talking about the forces that are on the street, but does the government acknowledge that the farmers to have a concern here have valid concern . So the march to National Capital was a 2 day program. Yesterday on the day one, i mean, god really felt varies by the amount of this phone that the farmers were deceived. You know, some donation by it was also the gender strike by the central trade unions across the country over here. And there yesterday only the agriculture minister, mr. Knight in the think over the and mr. Dodd not seeing invited the form of bodies to hold a discussion with the Central Government. Also it is important to note that already touched the one Farming Organization of punjab who are protesting. They have said youll already a meeting with the Central Government should do it on december 3rd. Do you know to continue the talking points . So yes, stockings are there, but at the same time, you know, the farmers face. So we are not going to back off yet. And the purpose and the march continues. We have to enter the National Capital. And that is what we are here to do. Right . Chopra, great to talk to you. Thank you for all of that. More than a 1000000 cases of covert, 19 are now being recorded in germany. Since the pandemic began and said the government is imposing any stricter lockdown measures to curb the spread of the virus. From december, private gatherings will be restricted to 5 people, increasing to 10 during christmas. Johns angle america has warned that wider measures are likely to continue into january. Britains Health Minister has asked regulators to assess the safety of the Oxford University astra zeneca kovac 19 vaccine. Its looking to get approval for a temporary supply of doses by the end of the year. The u. K. s Health Minister says the move is an important step towards deploying a vaccine as quickly and as safely as possible. Astra zeneca expects 4000000 doses to be made available by the end of december. The u. K. s chief medical advisor says he remains confident in the trial was out so far. Really look at the whole thing though. See the top of the results to see sick and weve got a great leader in the u. K. Look at it. No, dont make decisions around it. So i think you get one result of this works and thats very exciting. And its the forward for approval rating, because we need to be truthful about it from all the world. Health organizations executive director says the vaccine will allow for greater control of 19, but microns also warned. It wont mean the end of the pandemic.

Phantom is a vaccine ill just and the Vice President of vaccine research, development of blue willow bio logic spoke to us earlier and says, even with a vaccine, people really need to keep following the rules. I think there is a big problem if we just you know, relax and say we have a vaccine and everything is ready. We can go out and start our life as it used to be. Thats really a kind of big mistake for everybody. Because having a vaccine is one thing and applying the vaccine to the community and to almost everybodys a really huge task that will take months. And therefore if we just relax today, because we have a good results from a clinical trial, thats something that should be managed well. And we should not really relax our behaviors and our practices and the vaccine itself for. Although its a very big success for the 3 vaccines, including the senate. There is still many open issues that we have to be answered before. We get to the point where we say, ok, we made it, giving the vaccine to 65 and older where we have a we continue in the immune system and therefore not having enough people in that category is a big problem. Because then that, that population will not benefit from a vaccine. Therefore, i lay out of the highest risk people around. So therefore its is an issue with regards to the 65. 00 and older.

Now, large social Media Companies are starting to pull out of pakistan because of new censorship measures. And if this week, the government decided to expand special powers to its telecommunications authorities, critics say the move will have a huge impact on freedom of expression. Has more from islamabad. August on government has announced tough new regulations on the social media. The government said the move more is necessary to contain hate speech and also criticism of the government. However, the asian Internet Technology ation, which also represents major platforms of the social media such as facebook, google and twitter complain that it will make it impossible for them to provide services to you didnt business say.

But the government had also come under getting criticism from Mainstream Media with their day were not allowed to tell or guard the images of the opposition rallies in pakistan.

And theres a lot of pressure on the Mainstream Media.
