Hello. Im about this and this is obviously are life from dell hom, also coming up the end of the struggle, the failure of a 13 year fight for independence as, as a company and leaders does all not going to kind of box i made tiers demands for justice often any 100 people are killed in the rock as claims to sweep through a wedding, hold the im for me, the, and use what do you need ask because last absolute monarchy as elementary elections get underway, the so were going to be getting in the us president , job items lost a scathing attack on donald trump, the republican challenger, he could be facing in next years election. Bidens issued another warning about what he calls growing slides to american democracy, blaming trump and his supporters. Hes been speaking of the bottle gordon state of arizona. John hendrick begins our coverage from tempe to the white house build. It is a major redress on democracy. The President Joe Biden speech was also a shot across the battle of republican rival, donald trump, and his mac. A movement and a preview of the theme of the president s re Election Campaign to mark as a res roll the people. Nod, wrote a large, not room of money, not name a mighty, regardless of party. That means respected free and fair elections. Except in the outcome. When or a news, it means you can load your front tray only when you, where is the mark because it means rejecting the repudiated political violence. That was a clear reference to the january 6 2021 insurrection, fomented by trump, which led to a 2nd impeachment days ahead of a possible government shut down over the demands from trump sound lies in congress bite. And accused mag of republicans of destroying faith and american institutions, and biden said, every generation must protect democracy and he made clear what threats this generation faces or something dangerous happen in america. Theres an extraneous movement, does not share the basic belief in our democracy. The mag and move by may be addressed as he announced federal funding for the john Mccain National library, named after the late arizona senator and vietnam prisoner of war. He was both bidens political adversary and his close sprint bite and was introduced by mccains widow once a loyal republican wife. Later a member of bidens democratic administration, john would have hated if wed made this occasion just about him. But instead, he would have wanted to make it about what is most important. Johns constant mantra of service to a cause greater than ones self interest is in the home, serve the American People. Mccain died in 2018 in the year since the countries divisions have only sharpened. Its no accident divide and shows arizona for the speech. It is a key election state. The trump lost in 2020, and the fight in hopes to win again. In 2024 hours before biden spoke, House Republicans held a hearing on whether to impeach him another day of contrast and clashing political realities in a deeply divided america. John henry and l. G 0, tempe, arizona, or us House Republicans have run into problems at the 1st hearing of that impeachment inquiry into joe biden. They say the president s abuses, power. Im profited from his familys business dealings, but the republicans, 3 own expert witnesses have said that they dont have proof the bidens done anything wrong. Hearings also be modified arguments about procedure. It comes as the governments close to a shut down at least 10 times. Joe biden lied to the American People that he never spoke to his family about their business dealings. He live by telling the American People that there was an absolute wall between his official government duties and his personal art. Lets be clear. There was no wall. The committee is received 12000 pages of bank records. Here they are right in front of us, printed double sided and not a single page shows a dime. Going to president joe. But i think how many in San Francisco and theyre going to kind of bach a formerly declared, theyll despond their government. The break away region is gonna cease to exist from the 1st of january. Any hoff up is ethic. Armenians have left more than a week after, as a by john to control and a 24 hour military offensive. More than 80000 people are believed to have crossed into neighboring armenia or Prime Minister nichol pushing young is urging the International Community to act against what he calls ethnic cleansing 7 out of auto body. How 10 years in a few days, there will be no more armenians left. No go into the car, but theres an act of ethnic cleansing in depriving people of their homeland. Something had been warning the International Community about for a long time. So its for our media are proud to now is to receive our brothers and sisters, to put it from there going to cordova as careful as possible and provide the needs. Assessment brings everything as a by john, and he explains what dissolving theyre going to call. The box means for its people. Or this means this as the cleared republic of our stuff or newborn new caught above, will cease to exist from january. The 1st, this is the 1st time we are heading from Ethnic Armenian leadership, which sign this agreement. But other than dining need is, as it agreed, that people who are Ethnic Armenians living in the car box and place are going to be allowed to leave. That will be given safe passage and be facilitated if they choose to do so on this spot. The otherwise any government says that after all of the criticism that its hearing, that it is understandable that armenia had established this and state for decades. And now it is difficult for them to accept that it is now going to be dissolved. This is essentially going to be either by joining government taking administrative and Security Control off of this region from their tens of thousands have been leaving. In the last few days, weve seen more than half of the population of that kind of buffering move to armenia already, and it is a steady flow that people are continuing to leave in the future. Azerbaijan will admit its not just administrative, this area, but also according to its government, is going to give equal rights to ethnic, armenians who want to live as other badge on your citizens as citizens. Portal has been established for people to register themselves and buses are being sent to people who do not phone cars a to facilitate their movement from other by john into armenia. But it is a significant day for the people both were leaving. And both weve been waiting to go back to this area because its a decades gone. Conflict, people who are displaced decades ago want to go back to their homes. And people who be living there for decades have to start a new life and, and uncertain future. Because they are not having to approve themselves. So im a job with the elevator in the car about which what size is what people are leaving. Theyre going to call her buck despite also buys on giving assurances that their rights would be protected as balance with reports we get of on is very level of trust. And a lot of fear of this laundry will probably never be taken in by the women who hung get down to dry the self. The glad state of theyre going to kind of relax. Finally, so quickly its asked me to call meeting and population not only minutes to pack the rapid exit, just driven by sees of ethnic cleansing by as the by john. Few people accepted assurances from the government and back to that they would be safe. The problem is that my, my c desktop stuff to the ground. I dont know, but i guess hopefully i know that i have to, i know but we try to forget people who didnt bomb shelters. When, as about john launched, its lightning military offensive on the going to kind of back as russian peacekeepers stood aside, it didnt take long for the as a by john is to break through the ethnic on medians. Then defenses. 9 days later, most of the population of a 120000 has gone those still here trying to lead it is impossible to find 2 i and that to women, they are 90 to pay like 200 dollars for 5 right here i have some fuse flag is, i dont base our eyes, you know, in to, to met them over 30 years.

Because if you speak of that sort, then youll find yourself, find yourself king and swat to the 3rd as will this, what do you need for 57 years . Protest is accusing me of living lavishly while ignoring the poverty in the country of 1200000 people in may 2021. Thousands of people demonstrated peacefully quoting for democratic reform. Security forces responded swiftly and observe as accuse them of heavy handedness and cracking down on the protest. As Amnesty International says, more than 80 people were killed in more than 1000 arrested in a matter of months despite the bad on gatherings and petitions and an intimate blackout. Sporadic protest continued last year. Close 2600000 vote is eligible to choose 59 members of parliament. The king will appoint another 10, most opposition, according for a boycott. And once the kings power was diluted, but some ocean boat is to go to the polls, saying its the only way to be heard. Previously, kim swati has promised more dialogue with opposition parties, but little has changed. The government says these elections do represent the people. Several ups of groups, including one from the Southern African development community, are expected to monitor the vote. Results are expected over the weekend to meet them, bella, ill just, sarah. Well, if im, it is live from the Police Station in the capital m. Im on a, im from of the if Political Parties have been bind, its hard to know what people can actually vote for whats gonna happen. Of the, well, we do expect, um, at least, as we mentioned there possibly 600000 people coming out to porting stations. Like the sent regarding of the banning of Political Parties. Theyre voting directly for parliamentary members. And even then 10 additional members are appointed directly by the king. So this is essentially as far as people can go in terms of a representation. But the critics have said that not everybody who stands for election to be a member of parliament could possibly have the support of the king ultimately, who appoints additional members and could also dissolve parliament if you wanted. So this is part of the reason the critics have said that they wanted more democratic freedoms in the country, that this isnt a fee representation of peoples will. And they dont really get to say, because essentially people standing for these full parliament would have to be, i suppose, sanctioned by the king. Those critical of him wouldnt have his support and babs wouldnt stand a chance at the poles you were meant talking about in this, in your report that there had been protests previously was you being violent, they put down not Political Parties. And in fact, people in as retaining and still convinced that things for change as well. We have seen those protest, i dont in the last year or so the area with a non some do the uh, east of them, of bonnies with those protests started in around may. June 2021 of the University Student was killed. He was critical of the government so critical of the king, the monarchy, and he died in a road accident. But protesters alleged that police had something to do with his death. And thats when we saw those protests break out in an area like this with a is a very young population. We expect many of the use to come out to a potent station like this one to vote. But you know, its, im so to know how many people would devote, we know, 600000 all registered. The political block is a you, as you said, all bent one of the largest organizations and then thats the best you could call them and continue to be critical of because of the, the monarchy. They are saying people should stay away from the polls. Others are saying that this is an opportunity for them to have their say, even if limited, but its for peace even recent months. Is those process diag zone a significant come down on any protests at the time on the heights of some of the big approaches we saw the internet shut down. We saw a banding of petitions, we saw a banding of people congregating. So it is a difficult environment for people to get together and protest against some of the difficulties they say that they experience. Its going to be an interesting few hours and i know were going to be checking in with you during that time to find out whats been happening and ask for to me, find out from it and miller in and by me.
