Brian thomas great to have you with us the former president of georgia turned ukrainian protest leader Mikhail Saakashvili has been deported from ukraine to poland after being detained by armed men at a restaurant in kiev now ukraine says had been staying in the country illegally saakashvili described the move as a kid that hes led repeated protests against ukraines president accusing him of corruption. This Surveillance Footage reportedly shows the moment a mass men stormed a kiev restaurant to detain one of the governments harshest critics their target Mikhail Saakashvili the former president of georgia the ukraine government insist hes trying to stage a russian sponsored coup here thats actually says president poroshenko should resign for failing to fight corruption his attorney blasted kievs actions as outrageous it was a time when its a kidnapping and not the detention because the detention would be based on either a Court Decision or other documents and dispose of the case with exact issue really was taken into custody by Law Enforcement agents the Ukrainian BorderGuard Service says he was an illegal resident of the country in two thousand and fourteen if this in ukraine endures. And. Really says he remains confident and he says hell soon give a statement on his deportation. And how exactly will you fight to the end for the very latest lets go to nick standing by for us in kiev nick such as the always in warsaw and now hes described the incident as a kidnapping as we just saw he was detained by mass whats the latest on the situation. Good morning brian well it certainly was a pretty dramatic afternoon here in kiev yes its true the actual detention happened without much in the way of official procedure these were people in camouflage but without any uniforms on they later turned out to be agents for ukraines Border Guard Service it seems that once he was safe got to the airport it got a bit more official and he was handed some documents by Customs Officials before being put on a private plane and spirited off to warsaw i think the really important thing here is that the ukrainian thoughts hes had to learn their lesson to extent that they would have to do this quickly if you remember before christmas they tried to do the same thing again they were men security in camouflage without uniforms trying to arrest him just a couple of meters behind me where he used to live here in the center of kiev and his supporters were able to rally around in a couple of hours and prevent his attention even pulling him out of those police because of this time it really was about speed ok this blitz deportation if you called that you know icons as saakashvili was trying to unseat ukrainian president Petro Poroshenko these two men were once political allies what happened. This was a political friendship that they had even study together in the eightys theyve known each other for the good best part of thirty years sex really came to ukraine to his term in office ended in georgia to bring his experience of wide ranging radical reform but he felt that he wasnt getting the support from the Central Government to allow him to make those changes and he very soon found after a year that he wasnt able to do what he wants to do and left government turned from an insider to an opposition figure and its also important to remember that he had big protests planned for this coming sunday so thats an added incentive for the government to try and bring this forward and formally they had all the reasons to do so because formally given that hed been stripped of his citizenship and he lost his appeals for asylum he was now stateless person here illegally and i think thats very much the line the government will take that this is a formality something based on the fact of his citizenship his illegal status here and they will try and reject any political aspect of this ok so saakashvili is basically stateless right now what are his options at this point he cant go back to georgia is he going to stay in poland. Well quite as as you mentioned hes got an he was sentenced in absentia in georgia three years in prison so you face prison if you were to go back there he is very close to the current Bush Administration those ties go back to two thousand and eight and russias war with georgia when they flew to tbilisi to show their support for him he has forced the border last autumn he came through despite having had this isnt shipped stripped unity machine came to the border and helped him basically force his way through so you might try that again but as weve seen the ukraine authorities seem to have learned their lesson and have tried to be a little more fleet footed than they were in the past i think hes now its about taking stock and seeing what real support he has in europe and in the u. S. Hes stuart those have been very close to republicans to. John mccain and to really see what pressure he can exert over the ukrainian politicians to get back in and make ali following the story for us this morning in kiev nic thanks very much now for a look at some of the other stories making the news at this hour train crash in the central austrian town of nicholas or has killed one person and injured more than twenty Police Say One train hit the side of the other near the station the cause is being investigated.

Its to south africa now that countrys governing a. N. C. Is set to recall president jacob zuma as head of state that according to a number of local sources now this comes after the party held lengthy closed their talks on his future the seventy five year old has been facing mounting pressure to step down in a series of corruption scandals but he survived numerous attempts to oust him from office before it could soon be the end of the road for jacob zuma a. N. C. Party chief Cyril Ramaphosa left marathon talks in pretoria with a message for the president zuma own party has decided he should step aside his critics say a series of corruption scandals have left the president unable to credibly lead his country. To do so as it left his resignation would break a political stalemate thats left South Africans uncertain over whos running the country. Who was elected to lead the n. C. In december is poised to assume the presidency if zuma steps down but the countrys largest Opposition Group says thats simply not enough. It is the view of equality that is his people p. C. If i really think it was gene he couldnt and this will prove first of all the fish food is better then since the. Cup is in the country he is the would be two hundred my cousin cheesiness. Instead the opposition is calling for parliament to be dissolved and for early elections they say its the only way to ensure legitimacy. Ramaphosa has sought to reassure anxious South Africans that zuma speak will soon be resolved. I say this country. Because we know now you want this matter to be to find out why. You want closure on this matter. Over here as you do one crucial we werent doing so. Can be now on our. Own once in their interest or not even for air are we continue to you are not i that they should from zuma already faces a motion of no confidence in the South African Parliament next week if he refuses to stand aside impeachment proceedings could also be in his future. For more im joined now in the studio by their view correspondent christine moonwalked good morning christine what happens if zuma refuses to go what they mean see do they see will be forced to take the message to parliament to way it is more than likely that they will table a motion of no confidence against president jacob zuma a date has already been set for that the favorite the sick the twenty second we know that off that marathon meeting will actually end in the midst of that marathon meeting last night. President sort of a puzzle went to take place in his house and effectively told him that the party had decided to recall him and that he had forty eight hours to make up his mind we are hearing unconfirmed reports that he insisted on staying three months away that he could attend the African Union summit in the bric summit but that was denied to him he was given a forty eight hour deadline later today we will be hearing from the main see in terms of what progress has been made whether the president has agreed to step down or if its going to be taken to parliament ok that will be an important moment in this entire process that zuma has been under pressure for years can you bring us up to date on and on whats been happening how do you fall out of favor with the party brian they have been a lot of scandals around this president and are people asking the question why is the a. N. C. Only now making the decision to oust this president when for example the opposition parties have have tabled at least seven motion and confidence motions in parliament a. N. C. M. P. s throwing those motions out essentially because they have the numbers it all comes down to the fact that jacob zuma up until december last year had a consolation of power he has he was a president he was the countrys president anybody who dared speak out against him within Party Structures and that was really the place that he could be removed was kicked out of the party and so it was political suicide essentially for anybody to to challenge this president but when the tide turned out in december sort of a pause that took over as president we saw as a significant lead significantly diminished our. Well that for instance last two incidents last week right when south africa was supposed when he was supposed to give the state of the Union Address and the party effectively turned him down and he could not do that so his powers have been reduced and now hes facing the ultimatum essentially ok and hes also facing a skeptical public isnt he water everyday people in south africa saying right now about all of this South Africans are inferior because theyre looking at this and theyre saying this is about self preservation that this isnt about the good of the country that president jacob zuma is thinking about all the trouble he has coming his way when he leaves office and they him refusing to step down is it essentially because of that theyre also looking at people who still support president jacob zuma within the Party Structures and ill say you two are also only looking out for yourselves a lot of those people implicated in corruption charges listen to him as a South Africans have this this picture of a president or a man rather who they see as having looted the state has havent been corrupt and now faces the prospect of prison after office and hes doing everything in the little power he has caved to to to survive that and we should know more today we want to know most of where this is all heading to see manuel thanks very much for that kristie well monday was the United NationsInternational Day against the use of child soldiers armed groups recruit boys and girls and conflict zones and forced them to carry out often brutal crimes now there are an estimated quarter of a million child soldiers across the world mainly in africa in south sudan aid projects are trying to help former child soldiers reintegrate into society. David was once a child soldier now that terrible time is behind him and hes working as a cop and making beds chazz and tables when he was still fighting he almost lost all hope for his security were protecting his identity. There are so many bad things. In the sense of millions being killed. Theres so much death and hunger and nothing else. Has done for years according to the u. N. There were nineteen thousand child soldiers in the country some days ago groups released three hundred children not all were recruited by force some were driven by poverty to join many have come back traumatized. Yes i will think of people because theyd probably make it past the minute if you dont. Aid projects like this cop and she watch out good for my child soldiers professional training and prospects for the future. Its worked for david his job has made him more positive about the future. Change will take time people will continue to suffer but someday it will get better. But that will only happen once peace talks actually amount to something.

On markets here now could the u. S. Russia with some new economic sanctions why you know brian that so for us President Donald Trump seems reluctant to do so but washington is expected to impose pressure penalties against russia for its alleged meddling in the twenty six thousand u. S. President ial vote and those sanctions would primarily target drug Financial Institutions key to the countrys massive arms export business which is worth billions of euros and therefore crucial for the russian economy. Weapons have traditionally been a booming business in russia. Last year russia export a twelve billion euros worth of arms to fifty three nations private banks usually play a key role managing arms exports but many of them are now subject to u. S.

Im not happy with this solution. Huge its a soviet style solution and will not lead to any good ship. The putting a short. Government influence in the finance sector is growing some say moscow will order the central bank to keep. Awash in funds to finance arms exports. Do you have a problem see as well finance on companies. That. And if they work badly and run out of money.
