This was the 1st time ive ever really you know soaked it all in and tried that approach to it usually i would just pray and then you know ill be nervous for the whole day but then you know talking with my inner circle in the Team Chaplain here for us a. T. F. Is just wanted things it was like no matter what happens when lose or draw you still got a god thats going to love you you know no matter if you have gold silver bronze or anything around your neck and its just one of the cases you know i was at peace of myself and all i did was just go on one time and you know cross the finish line 1st units and professionally in june was it realistically a target few at the start of the year its a come to dunbar and when a gold medal and it without a doubt that was definitely the case i think when we 1st sat down on me coach not my coach my colleague we 1st sat down kind of mapped out what would be goals with a year and the goal was to weigh in doing out there into the relays and then you know to double back to win the World Championship and no doubt in my mind i knew i was fully capable of winning this this medal but it was just more so you know i just had to prepare mentally and physically and just get my mind right and you know believe in myself to just go out there execute the blocks down and just run run my race look at you know high school and college create a very. Good Football Player as well was it was always obvious to me that you were going to do the hurdles i think as i start to grow up and figure out who i was as a person i definitely see that track and field was was my. You know my dad did 22 years in the military and thats what i wanted to do initially when i was growing up then i started playing sports and then you know figuring out football is like ok i want to go to college and win the heisman and then you know you start again those College Offers and you start doing track and field and youre figuring out exactly what you want to do and then from you know college i made a Decision Just to stick with track and you know the city and always in the back of my mind like i want to play football but you know at the end the day i felt like i made a great decision and worked out well now before these championships the i. W. A. After pointed its 1st ever female Vice President in our strap probably joined me in the studio when i asked her about getting more women into sport across the. Well i do believe it is very important as it is in any kind of organization we need there versity one of the women to be there speaking for other women and speaking for everybody else so i really believe that having a women in richness it gives richness to any organisation but do you think the idea will lay out still has more to do what we do have more to do but things are changing i think its about to go have been a great job with allowing women and forcing its a little bit for the women to be able to be allowed to get into senior positions so theyve been working we have to stay working by the new constitution is going to make sure that women can reach those decisions something you sad when you were elected that was quite powerful i just want to get it right its important that sport look like the world which. Well the world i mean that the world is at 505050 percent man and 50 percent women and i do believe that track and field on the track we have to add 5050. 00 almost but when you go to leadership in sports not only in track and field and in full ball in basketball in volleyball all these are going to say sure theyre male oriented much many men have those position their women so i would love to see more women in power positions in the sports are going to say shows of the world ok i want to ask you about Caster Semenya now shes not here to defend her 800 meter wall title do you have sympathy for her situation i do have sympathy for susie to a show and i think it is very difficult for her by also have sympathy for the other women athletes it is difficult to compete against somebody that you know has some advantages so its i think its a very tough decision is a very difficult situation for both for her and for the other women and do you think bringing events like this to the middle east will encourage female participant to get into sports i hope so and thats what we are hoping we need to go with a fed ex to countries where it isnt popular. I think one of the recent they decided to do it here in in doha to show it to make people. More aware of track and field to get more public so i think it is it is a good idea to take track and field to take a medics to come to sweat it isnt that popular. Now way from the athletics Manchester Uniteds poor run of form continued in the Europa League on thursday it failed to have a shot on target and a goal is draw at.

Im Richelle Carey this is al jazeera live from doha also coming up iraqs Prime Minister addresses the nation after days of protests announcing a move that could see poor families receive a basic wage emergency law that could see facemask banned from prodemocracy demonstrations in hong kong. And a record settlement is handed down in the u. S. To families of victims from the countrys deadliest mass shooting. Leading democrats in the United States have accused President Trump of breaching his oath of office trump has openly called on both ukraine and now china to investigate his political rival one former Vice President joe biden a similar request made during a phone call with ukraines president in july has already triggered an impeachment inquiry in Congress White house correspondent kimberly how could has the latest from washington. With his presidency caught up in an impeachment investigation over a phone call with the ukrainian leader u. S. President donald trump on thursday called on china to get involved what. Is just about as bad as what happened with. You phrase the unconventional request to beijing comes as trump faces questions over his administrations request to foreign governments to help investigate former u. S. Vice President Joe Biden his potential democratic rival in next years president ial contest. Trump was chinese authorities and other countries to investigate bidens son hunter and his business dealings overseas members of the u. S. Congress are investigating allegations trump abuse just president ial powers in a july phone call with ukrainian president vladimir selenski we need real support in a trunk calls for an investigation into the bidens which is now the foundation of an impeachment inquiry led by democratic lawmakers on capitol hill 3 committees in the house of representatives on thursday question former u. S. Special envoy kurt volker about his orders from trump regarding a meeting in kiev just one day after trumps infamous july phone call with ukraines leader bowkers name is mentioned in the complaint provided to congress by an anonymous whistleblower House Speaker nancy pelosi says the impeachment inquiry is investigating whether trump implied he would withhold military aid to ukraine unless an investigation was launched against there is a quid pro quo if youre if you are already a couple days apart and granting or withholding and then asking for favors to create dirt on your political opponent but trump maintains there was nothing nefarious about his phone call with the ukrainian president the whistleblower never says there was a conversation he got his information i guess sex or desert has he wrote something that was subtle 6 just the former Vice President argued theres no evidence that he or his son committed any wrongdoing. Just know there are no true george against me no im sure every independent news organization. As you charge. Has found to be flat out lie still the number of trumpet ministration officials and snared in the impeachment inquiry continues to broaden Vice President mike pence is now in the spotlight after reports that President Trump tried to involve pence in efforts to pressure the ukrainian leader can really help get aljazeera the white house is going out on fisher who is live for us in washington d. C. So allan the ated that the missiles that were supposed to be there were being held up rather that were intended for ukraine where do things stand with that. The missiles and the ada 2 separate things although part of the whole picture of the aid was separate and donald trump was saying were holding that allegedly until we get a commitment from the ukraine that they are going to go ahead and investigate corruption particular and the bidens during his conversation with president of the ukraine. He said look we would like to buy some more javelin missiles from the United States and then dont trump said in the conversation well you could do us a favor and thats what everyone says is the quid pro quo and though tom says well look the whistleblower got it wrong he was making up to go from 3rd hand sources but a lot of what the whistleblower has said has actually come true no the sale of the javelin missiles has been approved by congress its no going through the state department thank you very much in favor over so those missiles will be delivered to the ukrainians when they start to pay the money to the contractor for doing exactly that meanwhile if that wasnt enough stick with me here china so donald trump whos been saying there was no quid pro quo or we would never asked ukraine for anything it was simply a conversation he then stands in the last few hours in front of the white house and says i have a lot of options with china and we want china to investigate joe biden because he makes this unfounded allegation never backed up by any truth joe biden and his son hunter are somehow corrupt in their International Business dealings now this isnt saying that quietly hes saying this in front of the white house and thats exactly why the democrats are impeaching him because he is asking a foreign country to get involved in the 2020 election by investigating a political rival see exactly why the democrats have started impeachment proceedings and so donald trump has really made it difficult for republicans to stand up and say its all been a bit big misunderstanding there was no quid pro quo. Particularly as donald trump is in the middle of trade negotiations with the chinese and they will be you next week so they could see what we could start their investigation but drop your thought of so far sed it shows hes not exactly the master negotiator but it also causes a real problems with the impeachment inquiry ok alan fischer great wrap up there from washington thank you very much and just days hes a former u. S. State Department Official who served in the Obama Administration he joins us also from washington we appreciate your time so it seems that every hour there is a new development a new leak that is coming out and within the past couple of hours the New York Times has been reporting that ever guards to ukraine specifically that the u. S. Diplomats actually drafted a statements for you cranes later president selenski to say that he would commit to these investigations that President Donald Trump was pushing and according to the New York Times this is true one of these people is culpable kurt volker who went and testified today gave a deposition today what does this say about potentially how widespread President Trumps efforts were to push these investigations and to pressure ukraine well its a great deal indeed in fact by the day by the hour we find out about additional u. S. Officials today Vice President pence evidence that he was pressuring zelinsky personally and other high officials in ukraine more shoes to drop on that so this is n
