Trumps presidency for the implications here so something were bill taylor is going to be seen very well in history for speaking out the way he did i think as for the state department you know i mean to the career professionals there are watching this closely and you see somebody like bill taylor who served his country with distinction for several decades being called a radical an elected bureaucrat by the white house i think its going to cause more people to want to speak out to violate the state departments guidance that says they shouldnt testify before congress which they probably shouldnt be giving that order in the 1st place because congress has a legitimate investigation here and i also think its going to cause you know potential defections from the state Department People leaving if this is what its going to be like because u. S. Diplomacy is supposed to advance the National Interest it is not supposed to advance the president s personal or political interests. Egypt has accepted an offer from the u. S. To help break a deadlock with ethiopia over a multibillion dollar dam project on the nile river construction to 70 Percent Complete and when its finished it will provide electricity for. The project will shrink its share of the water. Just a week ago Prime Minister was being hailed for his peacemaking and statesmanship abilities and now these comments a strong warning to egypt over this is to use a 1000000000. 00 project that he says if he is willing to go to war he said in parliament choose day that we could get millions is ready but thats not in the best interests of us. About egypt saying that they will take action what ican we want you to understand is that the culture of the population is poor and young so if we are to go to war with the africans we can have many millions on the front line but we have many benefits it will not benefit egypt if its done and. Some may have the capability of firing missiles and some. If it is from my country and but peace cannot be brought by bombing and by fighting talks over the construction project collapsed earlier this month if. You talk to egypts president on the sidelines of a conference in the russia later this week if the opium maintains it desperately needs the power generated by the sound project for its population of more than 100000000 people. Still ahead on aljazeera the British Parliament approves the Prime Ministers plan but there is more bad news.

Rise across lebanon are being blocked by antigovernment protesters who are calling for political change protests are now into their 7th day and the army is attempting to reopen roads the government has vowed schools and universities will reopen but the staff are threatening to strike the demonstrations are continuing despite the approval of unprecedented Economic Reforms said to her as a latest on the capital tehran. If the governing coalition was hoping people will get tired or that their new economic reform package would be enough to stop this protest movement that has not happened yet in fact protestors are promising ethical atory measures you can see. Theyre blocking roads not only in the lebanese capital beirut but across the country highways are blocked really trying to pile pressure on the government paralyzing this country the Lebanese ArmySecurity Forces theyre out in force in the street but theyre not using force to open the roads what theyre doing is theyre trying to convince protesters to make way for cars to pass in effect. This is something the government was hoping would happen that the protesters would stay in the square they have the right to demonstrate this is what the Prime Minister said but he also said that he instructed the army to make sure public life is not the stop the but like i mentioned the army is not using force we have to remember the International Community has its eyes on 11 on any force used against Peaceful Protesters could jeopardize much needed aid 11000000000. 00 of funds that the government needs to improve the Economic Situation so protesters keeping up the pressure theyre now trying to organize themselves this was a Leaderless Movement and it seems theyre trying to find a leader theyre actually collecting names people talk to each other they came up with a manifesto a plan if you like on what they want to see happen they want the government to resign a salvation government to take control of the country until early elections are held so theyre not backing down theyve created committees a committee to deal with the army. To be in charge of cleaning the streets for example a committee to try to Reach Financial funds in order for this protest movement to continue but at the same time while this is a Leaderless Movement there are some politicians in the opposition who are riding on this popular anger trying to push their own agenda there is no doubt about that and this is the real fear among people here this started as an Authentic Movement a Real Movement a hunger revolution if you like this is what many people say but that is only until it is hijacked and that is the people. Or johnson will call for a general election if he is forced to accept a long bracks a delay thats according to a government source ministers voted down the Prime Ministers proposed timetable for ratifying his new divorce deal on tuesday johnson missed now wait a year approval on an extension to the withdrawal deadline which he was forced by parliament to request last week but he insists britain will leave on october 31st do or die. I mean i face the uncertainty and the e. U. Miss not make up them minds about how to answer parliaments request for a delay and the 1st consequence mr speaker is that the government was taking the only responsible cool and exonerate all preparations for a new deal. As live outside parliament in london ad so paul what now. Well today well have Prime Ministers questions that regular weekend council between the Prime Minister and the leader of the opposition expect that to be a fiery engagement between the 2 men we also though have various procedural issues not the e. U. As we know is considering whether to grant the extension that was requested in that letter sent by Boris Johnson rather begrudgingly last week the indications are off from donald tusk the council of the e. U. Council president is that the European Union will grant that extension although were not sure exactly what form that will take some rumors around brussels saying it could be a flex stench and that is an extension which goes up to and until an agreement is made and no further one other theory is that they will simply give the extension that Boris Johnson rather reluctantly requested which was all the way to january the 31st and in doing so make it a definite cut off and give time for a general election all for the government to press ahead with this legislative program on the bracks it he at the government is saying that if it cant proceed with its bracks it bill it is minded to go for a general election and if the e. U. Grants the extension it will certainly do that what form will that take well 2 possibilities that could be whats called a one line bill dont forget the fixed Parliament Tax means the government needs 2 thirds majority to get permission for a general election however. And thats an act of parliament but it has put its own act of parliament in socal one line bill simply saying we want an election on december the 5th that could pass by a simple majority so thats one route the other possibility is that labor changes its mind labor the Opposition Party has said that if the e. U. Does grant an extension and by rules out a new deal in the short sound then it will agree to a general election it will give the government what its wants but the big picture is whether Boris Johnson and all these little losses that hes had actually contribute to him winning the overall war for putting himself as the the friend of the people supporting directed against this pollen that he is accused of being broken ok paul brennan the latest from london paul thank you.

And if the gathering to do some protests is throwing stones curtains of tear gas looted by police. They try to resist knocking down lighting small fires to disperse the gas and i was going to work on this idea with the truth is that weve never felt like this we thought that yesterday was bad but today theyre really kicking our ass and the fire smoke helps us to feel better the dollar papers proved a popular choice of fuel but it wasnt enough people running here are constantly around all day trying to broke up the sense of their record saying we take us so theres a lot of nerves here was a good reason she was hit by take us kind of was the governments trying to calm things asking the organization of american states to audit the final vote count to instill some trust but to these people thats coming late and for as once live a difficult to put out john home how does it or the potus.
