South korea says it welcomes this latest round of sanctions calling it an indication the world will not tolerate north Koreas Nuclear Development Program relations between the two koreas are at their lowest point in decades previous south korean administrations have taken a more hardline approach when it came to dealing with north korea but president mungy in who came into office in may leans more towards the liberal side so hes stressing dialogue as the way forward now in south korea is also due to host the winter of lympics in february and its keen to not do anything to heighten tensions on the Korean Peninsula ticket sales for the event have so far been slow with concerns that the the security situation is keeping spectators away so while south korea supports International Pressure on north korea in the form of sanctions it says dialogue has to be the way forward now how its north korea likely to respond to this latest round of sanctions while in the past north koreas previously third that sanctions will only have the effect of hardening its resolve and accelerating its Nuclear Program in august when the un s. C. When the u. N. Security Council Voted to ban north korean exports of coal iron and seafood among other things it responded with testing a Hydrogen Bomb in september when the u. N. Security Council Passed another round of sanctions in september north korea launched a missile test in november and we havent yet had any official reaction from north korea but we can expect a statement perhaps in a day or two put out through official state media we can also expect to hear from north Korean Leader kim jong un himself whos made it a tradition to deliver a new years day speech or david paul has been monitoring the chinese response and sent this update from hong kong. Well the fact that china has agreed to that level of could cuts and will be transparent about how much oil it sending north korea is seen as a major change in stance but chinas top short of halting all feel supplies beijings concerned it will lead to a collapse in regime and ask tensions even further something beijing does not want heres the Chinese Ambassador to the u. N. Sanctions are not an end in themselves but an effective means to bring those back on the track for peace. And Political Solutions how we will narrow and bumpy in maybe the lord to world peace station through dialogue is still open and. Chinas compliance with all these sanctions is possibly the biggest blow to north korea most of the north korean labor outside the country is in china the hard currency they send back supports pyongyangs Nuclear Ambitions and after the last round of sanctions in september all north Korean Companies in china will have to close in the next few days now with this round of sanctions on north korean workers will have to leave too though they will have a longer time line pyongyang used to notify beijing in advance before it launched a missile or conducted a nuclear test now not anymore analysts say beijing no longer has the sway it once had over north korea palestines president just a casual no longer accept the United States mediator in the middle east Peace Process but when a bastard speaking last meeting french president emanuel macro Palestinian Leader called for europe to play a stronger role in peace efforts trash about levels from paris.

S. As an honest broker it could leave the door open for france to play a greater role. For many more some picking through what weve seen as a manual macron getting really involved even of this is a very sensitive situation is much at stake frances position is difficult but macron to really looking to restore the france once ahead and put it on the National Stage much the decision by the u.

Hello again youre watching aljazeera has a reminder of our top stories this hour the United Nations has unanimously backs a new sanctions on north korea which by nearly ninety percent of petrol exports to pyongyang him jong uns regime is already under u. S. U. N. And e. U. Sanctions after conducting several nuclear and missile tests this year. And palestinian president Mahmoud Abbas as a leader is to play a bigger role in peace efforts following the u. S. Decision to recognize jerusalem as israels capital meanwhile two more Palestinian Protesters were killed by Israeli Forces in the latest demonstrations over the decision. U. S. Says it will provide ukraine with what it calls and hans defensive capabilities in its battle against russian aligned separatists in the east of the country the decision marks a significant increase in american support for ukraine weapons are expected to include antitank missiles still need to approve the sale once President Donald Trump signs off on it well than ten thousand people have died in the three year conflict in Eastern Ukraine stephen fish is a professor of Political Science at the university of california berkeley he says americas support will have little impact. The truth this is that this is not a game changer on the ground in ukraine its not even clear yet that the mts had missiles that you referenced in the introduction of the story will be sold those javelin antitank missiles really what ukrainians which they promise now really are just sniper rifles this is not going to change things on the ground in moscow knows that this is not striking fear and the heart of anybody in the Defense Ministry in moscow this is again its a way of the trump way that the trump administrative can show first of all that its doing something that obama did not do which is to sell nonlethal telt lethal aid all defense of a to ukraine but also to show people in congress that he really cares about ukraine and to the political advantage of showing that hes not in bed with the russians entirely i really dont think this is this is all that big a deal though well have to see if this ends up ramping up and leading to larger arms sales to ukraine it could make a difference but so far we dont see of evidence of that. Spanish prime as america has rejected an offer by Alstead Catalan President College peer to more to meet following thursdays we saw election catalonia as three prime independent parties won seventy seats in a one hundred thirty five Seat Parliament but the pros spain cisterns party won the highest number of seats with thirty seven it means a slim and reduced majority for the Pro Independence parties or brother reports from barcelona. When all sides claim victory who actually wins its a question catalans are asking themselves today winning thirty seven parliamentary seats to learning is Biggest Single Party is now the Citizens Party. Leader in this i dont mind us. But the three main secessionist parties together one seventy seats and so they hold the parliamentary Majority Council only has deposed president Carlos Priester more celebrated in brussels where hed fled to avoid arrest on sedition charges and hes made a new offer to the government in madrid and i get sent legal such. That im willing to meet Prime Minister ahoy in brussels or any other european state that is in spain for obvious reasons im willing to do it so that we can address this new political era starting in catalonia spain and europe it is an era presided over by Political Solutions not by common repression that we find ourselves in now the response today from the Spanish Government suggests dialogue might just be possible that. The person i would need to sit down with is the winner of the election and thats. Where i will make an effort to maintain a dialogue with whatever government comes out of these elections but as ive said before i will also ensure that we follow the law. On polling day voters of all sides spoke to us about wanting a return to normality with the results now in a straw poll of barcelona citizens found dissatisfaction with the outcome. Without favoring one side or another i think theyve hurt catalonia a lot with this independence issue. I think that the Citizens Party which one doesnt represent the majority of catalans i think the majority of people favor the probably independence parties. I dont think its a good result to lift us parties have been marginalized and i dont see a solution for the differences between two clear blocks. So for now the spotlight appears to be on the attitude of the new Catalan Government i would say they will slightly step back this doesnt mean that they waited and renounced today independence more but they will i think they got softer approach first because they were slightly less than fifty percent of the vote and they think thats important sank on because theyre hardline by the Chinese Government in this elections have produced a rather messy outcome with both sides able to take positives from the results but neither side able to land the kind of knockout blow that they might have hoped for everything now depends on the secessionist bloc and whether they will choose confrontation with madrid or compromise hope brennen aljazeera barcelona.

Might in the former head of the brazilian Football Federation was found guilty of six of the seven charges against him the fact they werent found guilty on all the charges indicates the jury at least partially believed the defense arguments that the corruption was part of a larger scheme that men were not fully involved with. Both my team and the puta claimed their innocence and they were the first defendants to stand trial here in new york two years after an Early Morning hotel raid in switzerland revealed that the Us Justice Department had been investigating widespread corruption within feet more than forty people have been charged in total more than half and pleaded guilty.

Cool her emilia she suffered a double horror first rape and then discovering the child she carried was missing part of its brain. In her country brazil abortion is illegal but exceptions are made for extreme brain damage danger to the mother to life and in the case of Sexual Violence. To follow that men emilia could terminate her pregnancy legally in a Public Health facility when i was really glad i found this place i was desperate i didnt know what to do here is more than the place for abortion is for women who suffered Sexual Violence they welcomed me not only with treatment but also with psychological help im still on the treatment because its not at all easy. That could now be under threat brazils influential bloc of evangelical congresspeople leading a push to amend the countrys constitution they want to add that life begins at conception its a counterattack against a proposal put to the Supreme Court by politicians and public prosecutors to allow all abortion up to twelve weeks. For us including this line in the proposal is a preventative measure because those people will try to discuss legalizing abortion they cant stop talking about it. But the prolife politicians are not just playing defense defining life as starting from conception could alter matic lee make any abortion illegal. At the moment there are units like this one at least in brazil cities which offer women the chance to get an abortion under a very exceptional set of circumstances but if the constitution is changed then even women who have been raped or his pregnancy is in danger in their own life might be out of options that has Government Health professionals the plea worried yes that you know that if Congress Approves this changed. We foresee that women will look to climb to stand increasing their chances of dying the number of deaths related to illegal abortion in brazil ohio already and if the cases that are now allowed in the country become illegal were looking at an academic i have a george here brazilian supreme dont see the issue that way it is deeply religious country many consider life as sacred under any circumstance so congress is due to vote on the proposed amendment to the constitution this february it will need a two thirds majority in both houses to pass those on both sides of the Debate Holding their breath for what comes next john home and out to sea to receive.

The metro rail transit is the backbone of manilas transport system it connects the southern part of the city to the northern side of the metropolis and the surrounding provinces.
