a great day for germany at the winter olympics with the team winning another battle at the biathlon wasn't enough for gold. been deported from ukraine to poland after accusing the country's president of corruption kiev said that saakashvili citizenship have been revoked and that he no longer had the right to stay in ukraine saakashvili described the deportation as an abduction and vowed to quote fight to the at. i the sudden interruption of the usually come lunchtime at a georgian restaurant in kiev this start filming the scene with their phones as a number of message men and come a flood enter and detain one of the guests his name because saakashvili the former president of georgia was it when it's a kidnapping and not a detention because detention should be based on either a court decision or some other proceeding document that was not the case. it looks like someone is trying to illegally send mikheil out of ukraine with you know my heart it was very. i really was indeed taken into custody and transported to the airport the ukrainian border guard service says he was illegally in the country. really moved to ukraine in two thousand and fourteen as an advisor to his student friend and the country's president petro poroshenko back then he traded his georgian citizenship for a ukrainian one but soon the two allies had a fall out when saakashvili started criticizing poroshenko government and launched a nationwide anti corruption campaign he lost his office and became a stateless person after his passport was rescinded last september he returned to kiev despite being far from welcomed. his deportation now comes as no surprise only last week a ukrainian court rejected his appeal to be given special protection against a possible extradition. really is now in poland the country from which he left crossed the border into ukraine forced or agreed to take him because he is married to an e.u. citizen. and for more let's bring in correspondent nicholas connelly who is standing by with the latest from kiev so nicholas this sounds like a pretty mysterious case what's the latest. good evening sarah well he is now in warsaw he says this isn't the end of the road he says that his thoughts in ukraine and also in his own country georgia will go on the potent is not the his last destination but this definitely has been a pretty dramatic day here in kiev mid-afternoon we got the first reports of him his detention in a restaurant just a couple of meters behind us those people were not wearing any uniforms they were in camouflage they turned out to be agents of ukraine's border guard service and he's supporters tried to stop this they rushed to airports to roads leading west and thought they could stop him being taken out the country as they did back in december but it turns out to be too late he was on a private plane as it turned out heading to also where he is now what's likely to happen to him now that he's in poland. well as our report points out he's a difficult position he's a stateless person he's lost his georgian citizenship he had his ukrainian citizenship taken off him by president bush in co last year that's why he was forced to push the border as it were to come through illegally with a big crowd supporters last autumn he hopes the free to do politics there. at a distance it's over the city could be weakened position for him to be in than he was before equally there was also the option the table of him sending him back to georgia where he faces three years in jail he was sentenced earlier this year you know absentia to jail term there so the ukrainian government of c. we have be cautious of risking such a big confrontation with seconds from these western allies the big test i think will be this sunday second should really had cooled nationwide protests on the anniversary of the deaths on the mud on four years ago against poroshenko calling for pushing because impeachment if he's able to bring people out in street just by being out of the country that will really be the test of his ability to keep involved in ukrainian politics nicholas tell us a little bit more about his cause and about his supporters because they know that he is on this anti corruption campaign right now accusing ukrainian government petro poroshenko of corruption. is valid claims or is this a power grab on the part of saakashvili. this is very much been his line since he fell out with president poroshenko after you know he was brought to the country to reform one of ukraine's most important regions address and he said that he wasn't being given the power in the freedoms to really make real change there this is definitely a consistent line of his obviously he is a very ambitious politician he's someone who probably isn't going to be happy with being just a governor or a you know a middle ranking law even high a civil servant forever. his supporters the as they have come out regularly although in all the numbers in recent months i think the important thing is not just people who support him directly but he could prove to be a christological at someone around to people who maybe aren't usually in favor of him but are against the government of pro petro poroshenko might come on rally around to see him as a figure to unite around nicolas connelly with the latest from kiev thank you nicolas the leaders of south africa's ruling party the african national congress are meeting to decide the future of the country's embattled president pressure on jacob zuma has been growing since december when he was replaced as a party leader by the country's deputy president c. will run a post. seventy five world zuma has been dogged by scandals since coming to power back in two thousand and nine he is currently fighting the reinstatement of seven hundred and eighty three corruption charges if he refuses to step down the president could face another no vote of confidence in parliament or impeachment. for more let's bring in journalist alan van gelder who is joining us from cape town and this meeting has been going on for quite a while what do you think that it says about the discussions and what are you expecting to come out of them. they have been going on off almost seven hours a meeting so did we actually have four sets tonight was the message would come to conclusion that's also what dainty leaders vice presidents real warm up also had said yesterday that the message would be kind of sorted out today and said africa is still waiting still nothing happens to can mean several things well we know that's being c. and c. so that can be one of the reasons another reason can be that it takes so long that zuma putting conditions on on his duties that he's saying there are certain things that have to mean that for me to step down is there any chance that he could be refusing to step down yes he can yes yes although it's party can recall him in this meeting he can refuse to step down and then as you said then you only way is for the parliament actually to to impeach him or to fire him and that's also why the opposition today has been very vocal about the. emotion in parliament that was going to be tabled only in one of the off weeks but they want to want to discuss this motion of no confidence already dissuasion parliament so from all sides from the a.n.c. side and also from the opposition side just trying to basically get rid of them why get him out of office ellis how is this being viewed by south africans in the meantime i mean is this just being seen as an internal an a.n.c. struggle or is this really a battle for the soul of the country there. oh you know definitely it is definitely a battle for the soul of a country and people are fed up with do my being corruption scandal office corruption scandals and they want spent sitting there and see exactly and see of nelson mandela that was there for the people that was there for them the party has been rough and then a new leader surreal from a close he actually. got to power in december of the party saying that he's anti corruption that he wants transparency that he wants people to be counted yet that he wants accountability so there is hope instead of a kind of he will really bring that's all those going to be difficult because you know the a.n.c. is a divided party but the hope and south africa is that he will be able to create a better future again for south africans can you tell us a little bit more about the mood in the country and the mood in the party specifically because we know that you know jacob zuma he has had many scandals he has survived all of them so far quite quite amazingly some might say what has changed now. yeah i think a lot of truthful now at this current moments varied every impatiens they want some two to go now and also i think people are getting very anxious because it is taking time day they say oh maybe eve got another trick up on his sleeves issue said he survived already so many scandals maybe you have a way out of this as well maybe he has so much dirt on other people within the a.n.c. that you can't hold onto power it is important though for the a.n.c. as a party to move forward without zuma in two thousand and nineteen zuma has to step down because that's the last term of the president and we'll have new elections here but to be and see to kind of get back the trust of the people in south africa they should have a new leader and fill them so that moving forward that they can win back folks they want a lot of days in the house a lot of votes two years ago journal action so they have to either have to kind of tidy up and make sure that they win back the south africans journalist alison gilder joining us with the very latest from south africa where as we mentioned the ruling party the african national congress are meeting to decide the future of the country's embattled president jacob zuma thank you ellice for your reporting. let's get a quick check now of some other stories that have been making news around the world former u.s. president barack obama has unveiled a portrait of himself at the national portrait gallery in washington and on earth given to all u.s. presidents the former first lady michelle obama also unveiled a portrait of the former president joked that he had tried to get the artist to give him less gray hair and smaller ears but to no avail. liberia's x. president ellen johnson sirleaf has won the most ybor him prize for african leadership the five million dollar award recognizes her efforts to rebuild the country following two civil wars the continent first elected female leader left office last month after serving two terms. and a train crash in the central austrian town of nicolas storm has killed one person and injured more than twenty others police say that one train hit the side of the other near the station the cause is being investigated. a top executive of the british charity oxfam has resigned over allegations of sexual misconduct by some of its staff in haiti deputy chief executive penny lawrence said that she was taking responsibility for the organization's failure to react to internally raised concerns the allegations center on seven oxfam employees said to have used prostitutes including some who are under age while working in haiti after the twenty ten earthquake concerns about some of the staff members were raised even before they started working in haiti oxfam has denied covering up the allegations. the fact that these allegations are standing are really quite severe you have to imagine that after the devastating earthquake and haiti for people as it is alleged for aid workers to go in and in a village that was rented for them by oxfam employ prostitutes and the allegations are under age prostitutes you know that is something that's quite severe and as it's being discussed it was known that some of these workers were already investigated internally there were already allegations that they had misbehaved in a similar way in and so the allegations as it stands is that the information was not fully disclosed for example not to the haitian or thirty's the police and also not fully to in the u.k. for example the charity commission who oversees charities like like oxfam said that they had there were there were reports that there were these internal investigations and but they didn't know the full extent of what had really gone on or else they would have acted differently so at the moment it's still unclear but the allegations are really quite severe and that was our correspondent burgomaster in with us a short while ago meantime in her first interview since clinching a deal for a new government germany's chancellor has squashed rumors that she will step down early to make way for a new generation of leaders angela merkel has faced growing dissent from her own party as she struggle to form a new coalition government. macko defied her critics and prime time t.v. vowing to see the coming legislative period through. the four years what a help promised and i am one of those people who keeps their promises. merkel has come under criticism from within have party funding key ministerial positions to the social democrats and for disregarding young talent. there is frustration among the rank and file i've been hearing that every day for the past three days nonstop. and i think we need a big team of younger people but also older ones a mix of new minds and experience ones and if we can manage to present ourselves as a team at this party conference then it will be a successful party conference. it should be clear who the ministers will be by the cd use upcoming party conference on february twenty sixth the chancellor has promised that they will include two young up and coming politicians russian investigators are searching for clues about the cause of sunday's airplane crash outside of moscow all seventy one people on board died when the saratov airlines regional jet came down after disappearing from radar screens about four minutes after takeoff russia's president vladimir putin had ordered a special commission to lead the investigation. they're battling the biting cold to find answers to want to brush his worst ever plane crashes but what the sight covered in six snow is like looking for a needle in a haystack. nearly one thousand people as well as drones and snowmobiles have been deployed to comb through the icy fields. goods which we plan to continue the main stage of search and rescue operations for seven die use. the wreckage is scattered across a very large area the snow is heavy and the to run is difficult it was very nearly a year for. the plane came down just outside moscow minutes after taking off for the southeastern city of course all sixty five passengers and six crew members were killed three children were among the dead. what exactly caused the crash about weather technical failure or human error c.c.t.v. footage caught the fatal last moments. of something like a firework and then it fell and there was a big explosion. but authorities say they received no distress signals as the search operation continues investigators believe one of the black i think it's fair to say that if you're an investor in the u.s. at the moment sorry you need a rather strong stomach now the last couple of weeks of course so when you look stocks down ten percent and that's the definition of entering a correction so amidst all that wild volatility you know this week but on the way that with the dow jones you think by three hundred points that they started the five hundred off of what was it was wheat in it is now the uncertainty sparked by fears of growing inflation which could force faster than expected rate rises on the federal reserve all eyes this week will be on the u.s. inflation figures out on wednesday night if the rate tops one point seven percent it's. could be a case of and on to your hats once again. meanwhile european shares rally today taking a cue from asia which saw calm a come to the stock markets there and driven by those early gains that we just saw on wall street now all major european benchmarks closed in positive territory in the euro was a managed to gain about a quarter of a percent since friday's close. equity markets in frankfurt ended their string of last week's losses and are now suddenly back in positive territory blue chips in the dax index jumped up by nearly one and a half percent at the end of trading. but on friday the dax closed at its lowest level since september shares had lost over ten percent since highs last month something most experts in frankfurt could simply not forget. readers here are just as worried as elsewhere not very many smiles here on the floor and to be honest actually none because people are seeing it went down with a lot of volume and it's recovering now with less volume partly with very little volume or that's a bad sign. but speaking at a weekend conference in dubai i.m.f. managing director christine legarde told investors not to worry those markets movements where clearly in our view necessary market corrections the markets hot function well there is plenty of financing that's still available to finance the economy analysts are now waiting for the next u.s. inflation report due on wednesday if that fans inflationary fears it could very well start another roller coaster ride on equity markets. now global demand for oil will grow faster than expected this year that's according to the organization of petroleum exporting countries opec the group expects demand for crude oil to rise by over one and a half million barrels a day sixty thousand barrels per day from its previous month any market report now you might be wondering what is actually driving the increase when so many countries have signed up to move away from the black stuff but opec says an expanding global economy is the main driver as austudy vehicle sales in the u.s. china and india and crude prices inched up on monday following the updated and pet cool coxed. chinese new year is just around the corner fall out for warning on a friday the sixteenth day here but new lunar new year celebrations may not be as bright or noisy this time around in china as that's to cut pollution the government has banned fireworks in forty four hundred forty four cities last year a victory that the bands are taking the bang for millennium business. it's known as the pyrotechnics capital of china here in the southern city of new young there's even a stop to to honor the man locals believe invented fireworks more than a thousand years ago. who can produce is two thirds of china's fireworks much of that production still takes place by hand but now in an attempt to curb pollution the government's banned fireworks in hundreds of cities including in the capital beijing as lunar new year approaches shopkeepers are of freddie feeling the hit. if you look around the markers you can see only a few shops remain open. probably don't see many customers previously at this time of the year we used to have customers stocking up on supplies. and fireworks are traditionally believed to drive away bad spirits and to bring good luck but the year of the dog isn't looking like it will bring much good fortune to china's fireworks industry even if it isn't quite ready to give up the ghost yes. well chinese new year is big business for florists right across asia like these street vendors in cambodia but the year of the dog approaching people are flocking to purchase yellow flowers now that's supposed to bring business owners good luck the idea is that bad companies will grow to like flowers whether or not it was a certainty bring growth good bullshit. it was a great day fourteen germany on day three of the olympics and to tell me more about that turning us here in the studio is jonathan crane from sports that's welcome to you jonathan and then we have to talk about this day i mean because apparently germany finishing day three at the top of the medal table and a lot of it had to do with the by awful lot right yes biathlon and specifically lara dahl maya now one goals in the sprints event on saturday and she repeated her trick she won the the suits event today a fantastic performance from her loss she just was shooting really she was under pressure from survive is and the start of the cruise mean a better. performance on the skis was just about enough time to grab the frog at the end she won by nearly thirty seconds and she becomes the first woman ever to compete in the olympic biathlon sprints and pursuit began perhaps you could go to mass start race on saturday no that would be no mean feat because biathlon is such a difficult event it combines insurance with position so if she can do that it would be a superb achievement absolutely and no surprise that she would win that because i mean she has just been that overwhelming favorite going into this but how about on the men's side or on the men's side heifer won the sprint events on sunday for germany but he couldn't repeat the feat like a doll maya did he had a four point four second head start she had a twenty four second has start going into that so this man a moxon for card one he's from france now where he's one of the most successful athletes in biathlon history this is so then picked gold medal he defended his title very successfully it was better news. they for germany because bennett dole got on the podium he got a bronze medal for them ok so you mentioned that he got three gold medals but now we have to talk about a woman who has five yes rain burst from the netherlands and she got gold in the women's fifteen hundred meter speed skating event now that makes her the most successful in ever most successful olympics being skaters which you know got ten medals in total in the netherlands just so dominant in this sport so here she is posting her fastest time she really had to push hard in the final four hundred meters but then have an agonizing wait because there were still six more states as you had a chance to beat it japan's me go to carnegie was the one came closest that she had to settle for silver so there is a verse was an achievement by her and more great news for the netherlands and canada also had some really great news on the ice canada on the ice this is figure skating now this canadian team we see on the screen full of stars but they were really disappointed four years ago in sochi that they lost out in a team event to russia but they've got their revenge totally dominant this is the power test a veteran scott moore there and you picture gold is already in the bag by the time they got on the ice so the pressure was off for them patrick chan he was also competing in the men's singles event now he's had a difficult time of things lately he stumbled on friday he's a three time world champion but until now he never won an olympic gold he's also hopeful now that he could get one in the individual event he's hoping his fortunes turn around let's let's hear what he had to say it's been a tough year it's been it was a tough four days of early competitions and not the best performances but we all came through and we needed to win and support each other so. happy to have done it with this group of people. we have to talk about the weather we do that was indoors those parts but i mean it has the weather has just been wreaking havoc has and it has and then you'd expect wintry weather as a winter olympics for clues kind of in the tide so but the wind has really been causing problems about some pictures to show you winds of up to fifty miles per hour wind chills as well minus fifteen degrees celsius there now several events have had to be postponed because of that the men's downhill on sunday the women's giant slalom today so alpine skiing events receive the higher up the mountain to all the windy it is now that the i.o.c. has been responding to this saying you know it would never jeopardize the safety of athletes for some athletes have come out and said actually we shouldn't have been competing we saw that in the snowboard slopestyle today several athletes found in fact eighty percent of the competitors follow or at least one of the jumps but the i.o.c. says it's safe enough so hopefully the weather will start improving absolutely especially for those athletes that are going for a record so you can just imagine that that in my face must be such a challenge and such a cold and windy weather we want to thank you so much jonathan brain for giving us the wrap up of what has happened on day three of the olympics it will change it up to date now and news i'm sarah kelly thanks for watching. i also drowned at the age of six. and
