Bias against election campaign. And will be able to march under their own flag in the closing ceremony of the Winter Olympics have a live report. After days of heated negotiations the u. N. Security council has unanimously adopted a resolution demanding a month long truce in syria this comes after a week of government led strikes on the rebel held enclave of eastern which has killed more than five hundred civilians the resolution calls for an immediate end to hostilities for thirty days thats meant to allow a window for much needed aid to be let into besieged areas including east. It would also allow medical evacuations in a moment well get the latest on the situation in eastern but first. Phase as this report from the United Nations. Diplomats worked frantically to get a resolution for a cease fire on syria about sort of you got an agreement with the russians now. Today were going to see if russia has a concert the Russian Ambassador conferred with his syrian counterpart whose government has continued without rest by the bombardment of eastern puter even as the negotiations dragged on diplomats have been working around the clock exhausted frustrated and in some cases angry most of the discussions focusing on the exact wording of one paragraph in the end they agreed to a place an immediate cease fire with one that comes into force without delay it meant they could vote. It was unanimous but there didnt seem to be much unity in the chamber. Every minute the council waited on russia the human suffering Group Getting to a vote became a moral responsibility for everyone but not for russia not for syria not for iran i have to ask why as they dragged out the negotiation the bombs from assads fighter jets continued to fall in the three days it took us to adopt this resolution how many mothers lost their kids to the bombing and the shelling why we negotiated this so long and that is illusion that they wanted to make sure that it is not used as a pretext for any military action because we had some trouble so what in worrying. Governments on that in the recent days any good in today some of the variability cause these negotiations were extremely hard getting a ceasefire across syria will be even harder can they get a stop to the bombardment in eastern guta there is an exemption in the resolution allowing continued military action against al qaida. And i saw and some diplomats fear that the Syrian Government will assert that those fighting in eastern guta have links with those groups james pays out his era at the United Nations syrias two major rebel groups in eastern guta say they welcome the Un Resolution but its still unclear whether it will bring any relief or perceived civilians in eastern assemblage of it is following events from turkeys border with syria. Ive spoken to a number of sources since the United Nations Security Council came to this agreement a United Nations source said that weve always been ready to provide aid inside eastern huta and its been frustrating for us to know that people can see our warehouses from inside who are there only a few kilometers away but we havent been able to reach them in the last five years but aid workers are saying that it is going to be tough for these aid groups to come in and provide this help because not just the Syrian Foreign Ministry but the Syrian Intelligence also controls these checkpoints and in the past have stopped aid convoys and taken out medical supplies in essential items that they do not want to ascend into people have cautious optimism about what has happened but theyre also afraid of what is going to come in the coming hours because eastern huta has been bombarded lentulus the more than five hundred people have been killed at least twelve hospitals have been destroyed and more than two thousand people have been injured medics have been saying that the situation is desperate and critical. To the. Rescuers are responding to crisis for help. Thank you very much. But eastern no very safe basically none of the i was young and so i guess you know much of panic the search for children who disappeared in the debris. Every one of the children called for their father. So there was no the Civil Defense worker says they must hurry to the basement. Activists accuse the Syrian Government and russia for the airstrikes and shelling the suburb of syrias capital damascus has been bombarded specially hard for the last week. The only like these is from the fires which started the bombing. You are you out these children prayed in the dark in an underground shelter one of them wants the world to feel their pain her. No food no water every day you sleep on the floor my back hurts we cant bring a pillow from our house if we get out well get it dont you know that imagine your children being gone and what do you want me to say. The other was the safety. The words you had out the floors are down the air is humid and its called underground there are few basements in all to nearly four hundred thousand people i have a little most of us i smoke i know what this is called our children didnt eat for two days we cant find anything else well feed them this is a male god help us. Aid i syrians living in cities abroad have protested in small gatherings they reject that the fight in eastern huta is against what the government calls terrorists. But the Syrian Government iran and russia say the civilian deaths in our fabricated propaganda. Since the United Nations Security Council agreed to a thirty day ceasefire in syria aid workers say theyre ready to take in the aid but people inside are scared fearful of what has happened in the past in other areas might happen here again with the government tries to take as much as possible before the Implementation Phase kicks in. And the turkey syria border. Has been six months since ranger became the target of one of the worlds most brutal crackdowns the u. N.

Those who survived the crackdown in the camps live with scars on their bodies and in their minds charlotte ballasts aljazeera as a member has a Research Professor at the stage of studies institute at the Us Army War College hes also the author of the rangers inside man laws hidden genocide and he joins us now from seattle when you hear these stories from the refugees no wonder they dont want to return to men but whats going to happen to them. Rule in job been displaced its been six months and just the figures released today we have and dick it has succeeded and forcibly removing ninety percent of the ruling job population no the difficulty is that in the last six months theres been absolutely not a single piece of action from the International Community or the United Nations to fix the situation in myanmar and bangladesh ive entered into an agreement to the pact. I believe that agreement is simply is use by the myanmar authorities to buy a team and tow the International Attention moves on to the next cases and those will hinge on become a permanent fixture within bangladesh we have been here many times before and ninety two ninety three two thousand to two thousand and thirteen and myanmar has essentially no intention of taking the job back to the big question here is why on earth the International Community has done nothing to stop this atrocity. Theres a number of reasons for this the principal reason is that. The cheneys veto at the u. N. Security council protects me and more from any sort of action from the International Community shana will simply veto any un human nature investigations or any sort of sanctions or in myanmar a second reason is that the International Community has continuously waited for unk sung suu kyi to take action in this situation they did not want to put too much pressure on her because they believe that myanmar was a very fragile democracy it was flawed but was moving in the rate daily action and any sort of pressure on myanmar me have resulted in a military coup which is something that nobody wanted and this is a mess thats been perpetuated by and sung suki and our supporters because the military is actually in a very good situation at the moment they have the holy grail of politics they are food power without any accountability and they can go on to their Hearts Content of ethnic cleansing and so this has been the International Community havent taken its eye off the ball so do you think that the minimal floridians have then judge this correctly that the International Community is simply going to leave a period of time and the refugees will stay in bangladesh and then attention will be diverted elsewhere. I think so one of those unfortunate myanmar authorities have been rate you know they have more or less gone ill be with this massive generous aid and ethnic cleansing of these people and the agreement that theyre trying to enter into bangladesh is as i said before is simply a ruse the job nothing to go back to their villages have been burnt the land has been seized and those already been redistributed and is being harvested by the locals saw this agreement as simply a mechanism just to buy and for and to look busy setting up these commissions commission for example a Bill Richardson withdrew from because the governor Bill Richardson because he realized it was simply a stitch up and just make an ism to divert attention. Many thanks for joining us there with your thoughts from seattle now the u. S. Congress has released a classified memo by democrats two weeks after it was blocked by President Trump citing security concerns and there are buckskins by republicans that the f. B. I. Abused its powers investigating alleged russian interference in the u. S. President ial Election White House agreed to the release of the democratic memo only after redactions one made a series of tweets on saturday trump criticized the memos saying the democrat memo response on government surveillance abuses abuses is a total political and legal bust just confirms all of the terrible things that were done so illegal by estabrook has more from washington d. C. Well this democratic memo that was released today basically says that the f. B. I. And the d. O. J. Acted in follow the letter of the law when they launched this investigation into carter page who was a Campaign Aide to president from the republicans earlier this year contended that the f. B. I. Based its investigation so only on partisan research that it had gotten that relied on information from brit former british spy Christopher Steele the democrat said today in this heavily redacted memo that they actually began this investigation the f. B. I. Began the investigation a few months before it even saw this da cia and that the f. B. I. Was really basing its investigation on the conversations that carter page had had with russian officials and relationships that he had with russian spies at the white house says that it is glad that this heavily redacted memo by the democrats was finally released today even though it undercuts the president and then was also back and forth between republicans and democrats on the House Intelligence Committee adam schiff who is the ranking democrat said some time ago republicans on our committee released a declassified memo that omitted and distorted key facts in order to mislead the public and impugn the integrity of the f. B. I. We can now tell you what they left out devon nunez who is the republican chair of that Committee Fired back that this democratic memo proves absolutely nothing i would say that this we actually want to do so so this is been held up for over two weeks the f. B. I. And do j. Had right away had told the democrats what was wrong with their memo or their response to our memo and they waited for two weeks before they actually did the reductions that were necessary to get this out we wanted out we wanted out because we think it is clear evidence that the democrats are not only trying to cover this up. But there are also colluding with parts of the government to help cover this up now the republicans are continuing to claim that this is part of a witch hunt into the presidency in the trunk Campaign Democrats on the other hand are saying that it was acting that the f. B. I. Was acting responsibly and would have been remiss had it not investigated carter page plenty more still ahead on the news hour including nigerias president calling the plight of missing schoolgirls a National Disaster and deploying more soldiers. To us joining Major Companies cutting ties with americas largest gun lobby the n. R. A. Calling them cowards.

Looks like the russians unable to fly the flag of the cross closing ceremonies but a pretty disappointing games for them.
