Tells president jacob zuma that his time is up but zuma who faces many corruption allegations has so far refused to step aside. And germanys Oldest Political Party could be on the brink of a historic change the social democrats look set to elect and they are not on this as their fullest female leader but does she have what it takes to unify the deeply fractured s. P. D. Plus a korean american lights up the Winter Olympics in chong chong with the south korean grandmother watching kill you kim goes away the competition on the snowboarding hall find her last drawn and dedicated to grahams receives a deal of score. Helen a warm welcome to you im under touchy you created an Opposition LeaderMikhail Saakashvili has warned corruption could tear the country apart if the e. U. And specially germany dont step in he was deported to poland last night after heavily Armed UkrainianBorder Police stormed a kiev restaurant to detain him now saakashvili a former president of georgia has described the move as a kidnapping ukraine says hes been staying in the country illegally. This Surveillance Footage reportedly shows the moment amassed men stormed a kiev restaurant to detain one of the governments harshest critics their target Mikhail Saakashvili the former president of georgia the Ukrainian Government insists 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 was it when its a kidnapping and not the detention because the detention would be based on either a Court Decision or other documents and discussing the case the second issue really was taken into custody by Law Enforcement agents the Ukrainian BorderGuard Service says he was an illegal residents of the country in two thousand and fourteen seconds really arrived in ukraine as an advisor to an old friend and the countrys president Petro Poroshenko he became a ukrainian citizen and the governor of the odessa region but soon the allies had a falling out sack israel and started criticizing poroshenko his government and launched a nationwide Anti Corruption movement soon he was stripped of his ukrainian citizenship while abroad but in september he returned to kiev. And his deportation may not be entirely surprising just last week a Ukrainian Court rejected his appeal to be given special protection against possible extradition. Really is now back in poland and hes vowing to fight on i love poland but. And really says he remains confident and he says hell soon give a statement on his deportation. And he joins me now from kiev Nick Saakashvili says he was kidnapped and looking at the pictures it didnt look as if he was leaving voluntarily. Good off number two well thats certainly the case i think ukrainian officials had to learn their lesson from a couple of months ago just for christmas they tried to detain him in a similar raid at his house just a couple of tens of meters behind me where i am here in the center of kiev back then there were those famous images that went around the world of sex really running across the roofs here delaying that arrest and allowing time for his supporters to come down here to downtown kiev and they eventually were able to then pull him from an Unmarked Police car so that time the ukraine authorities werent able to spirit to move the country in a hurry as theyve been planning to this time it was all a faucet his supporters werent able to get in the way he was on a private plane very quickly and i think theres no quits not a coincidence that given he was organizing big protests for this coming weekend they wanted to make it happen in a hurry so why do the parties decide to move now and hostle saakashvili out of the country was it to do with the protests that he was planning as you just mentioned. Theres definitely that aspect coming that hes got these these protests that hes organizing hes been organizing protests or has to be said regularly of the boss a few months but he was aiming to get more people out on the streets this time around. Its important member here the formal reason for sending him out the country is his status his immigration status here in ukraine that he was stripped of his ukraines its a ship by present course and go last year while he was out of the country and had to force his way back from poland and ukraine so thats the formal one case running against him at the same time you also had a case running against him for as we mentioned of peace supposedly organizing lead to intents and purposes a coup against the current government the fact that its actually he was sent out of the country while that case surrounding this supposed who plot was still running rather do you discredits that case in the seriousness of it i think also its important but that there are elections this country next year in about a years time ukraines will go to the polls and Petro Poroshenko has to deal with a lot of discontent over stagnating Living Standards the conflict of conflict and dont bass so there is a motivation here to get someone who has shown his ability to bring people out on the streets out of the country if thats possible. I think why has been taken to pull him in what are his options now the full reason for poland is that that was the country that he illegally entered crane from after he was stripped of his citizenship last summer so he broke across the border with the help of unity machine code some of the ukraine opposition figures. Also he has a wife is an e. U. Citizen so theres a sort of legal basis for that the alternative would have been to send him to georgia where he would have faced arrest and prison so i think Ukrainian Government didnt want to send him to prison and create a rift with his western backers so this was the easier option to get him out of the way without too much of a drama an economy in care thank you very much for that. Journey now to south africa where the ruling a. N. C. Party has given in battle to president jacob zuma forty eight hours to resign the decision follows a marathon meeting of party chiefs that ended overnight it marks the end seize latest attempt to calm the countrys turbulent political situation thats been still adopt by a president whose long tenure has been mobbed by allegations of corruption observers say a seventy five year old zuma is unlikely to go without a fight. For some analysis im joined by the obvious correspondent christine a welcome christine now the a. N. C. Was supposed to make a statement right now at Eleven Oclock our time but its postponed the statement for another two hours whats going on in the in the last hour we know that two of president jacob zuma has allies in the party left hes home its understood that they personally deliver it. From the African National congress that was essentially telling the president that the party has recalled him we understand that the other structures of the a. N. C. Now need to be informed and it is that process that has delayed this particular announcement the decision to recall the president was taken by the partys highest Decision Making body the other structures are now being informed of that now the in c. And particularly suited up was a were very keen that zuma leave with some of his dignity intact but hes not playing ball so what are the possible scenarios and how do you see it playing of what this spells is that jacob zuma is very worried about to the prospect of prison when he leaves office and we have seen him making all kinds of demands which included immunity and having the state pay his legal fees after office and him hanging on to this office really the only place where hes got immunity from these charges is really tailing off of a president who perhaps realizes that you know socalled innocence that hes been presuming to the public may not be there and the. They are indeed merits to some of the charges that he is facing if he refuses to go voluntarily and he and we have stan whos been given a forty eight hour. Period to make that decision he will force the party to have to take this matter to parliament a party cannot recall a president a sitting president has been sworn in constitutionally and so the avenue that the a. N. C. Would have to take is a motion of no confidence in parliament there is already a date reserved for that it was brought up by the opposition that would be favoring the twenty second but that would go through very easily he would lose that he would be voted out because the the opposition would also jump along with the a. N. C. And push that motion forward you know quite unprecedented that a party would bring a vote of no confidence against its own leader so what do ordinary South Africans make off this Political Drama playing out on the National Stage to put it in the end if you were South Africans are running out of patience with all of this and we heard it over the weekend when sorum of course have told the country that i am i know you want this matter to be resolved very quickly but there is also the sense that this is no longer about the country that this is selfpreservation on the part of jacob zuma in refusing to leave office is not about carrying out the rest of his term to do good for the country but essentially to keep himself out of prison and that those who who continue to support him within the Party Structures ought to be looking out for their own best so there is a sense of frustration on the part of South Africans and they want to see this matter resolved quickly christine wonder thank you very much for those insights pleasure mr. Let me now bring you up to date with some other stories making news around the world the trial of a palestinian teenager i had tommy lee is underway in an Israeli Military court in the west bank tamimi faces trial charges including assault and incitement for the slapping and pushing off to see Israeli Soldiers last year finalists in eons the seventeen year old has become a symbol of their struggle against israeli opposition israel says shes simply an agitator.

Youre watching the news coming up ahead its the big reveal as former u. S. President barack obama takes his place in Washingtons National portrait gallery find out why his canvas is making history. And speaking of making history germanys social democrats look set to do the same with the body likely to elect a female leader for the first time. But first over to monica with Business News and the simmering tensions between china and the u. S. Exactly on retirement in what is the latest move in a growing standoff between the worlds two largest economies beijing took a made imports of a key chemical from the United StatesChinas Ministry of commerce announced today it had found a dumping off styrene imports from the u. S. Styrene of course is the Building Blocks of many plastics used to make phone packaging and many disposable plastics the measures come just a month after the administration launched new tariffs on chinese made solar panels and washing machines. Meanwhile in the us president has announced that taxes will be levied on companies from countries which impose customs duties on u. S. Products trump was unclear which countries would be affected by the levy but he stated that hell say more about the. Tax this week trump also announced his four point four trillion dollars budget plan for the coming fiscal year and a one and a half trillion dollar plan to modernize the ailing u. S. Infrastructure so a lot for markets to digest starting five for us in frankfurt early that infrastructure plan is interesting because it relies to a large extent on money from the private sector who is paying for it. Well timidly the taxpayer will pay for sure of private companies go on and build bridges or build roads theyre not going to do it for nothing and if the state doesnt pay it then ultimately the consumers the taxpayers will pay for it in terms of user fees and tolls for example but then the private companies can levy the plan for seize though that the states also fork out money and the local authorities remains to be seen whether they they actually do that but if they do that then of course until maybe such infrastructure pays off in the end in terms of Economic Growth if it does that then they will burden themselves with more debt and again leaving the bill to the taxpayer ultimately what really we remember the Financial Markets rally itself to Donald Trumps election the victory in part because of his Infrastructure Spending promises is this the result they were hoping for no one point five trillion over ten years sounds like a good number and that might have satisfied Financial Markets but you know when you break it down only really two hundred billion is guaranteed of this one point five trillion thats the sum that the federal government would be spending over ten years if Congress Passes this budget in this plan and theres a big question mark behind that as well but when you break down the two hundred billion over ten years thats twenty billion economist i spoke to just a few minutes ago said well thats almost as little as germany is spending in the next couple of years so i think its must be is seen as a disappointment here in the markets well let me just briefly i mean this whole four point four trillion dollars budget is based on optimistic assumptions on continuing Economic Growth is that realistic. No because it excludes basically all external shocks like Rising Interest Rates were seeing that right now rising inflation demographics which could change unfavorably political tensions and lastly people ive talked to here fear that the infrastructure may be improved but if theyre spending before it pays off there will be a mountain of that to seriously that will be a problem only of us in front of the thank you so much for this. So we spoke about donald trump but there were many many more president s before him im rita exactly monica and theyre going to take a look at some of them have a look at these pictures be about to see and take a guess what do all u. S. President s have in common correct the or find their way into the National Portrait gallery in washington at some point and here for example we have one we have George Washington the fust u. S. President and hes seen by the painted rembrandt to be in seven hundred ninety five and then we have it bam lincoln immortalized on the canvas by George Peter Alexander healey in eight hundred eighty seven a more recent one john f. Kennedys portrait by lindy kooning a painting that ammans attention because you know its a much more kind of colorful compared to the others so but images of the leader as as you can see from all these pictures where they have in common theyre all old and white or not so old and white men wet not any more barack obama is the first africanamerican to have his poor traits in the galleries hall of president s. This image of the former First Lady Michelle Obama will be on display nearby a couple of the first occupants of the white house to have their official portraits painted by black artists Barrack Obama supporter to scan the winey is renowned for painting people of color in the style of the old masters he didnt follow all of obamas suggestions ive tried to negotiate was greater. Artistic integrity would not allow him to do what i asked. Smaller ears. Struck out on matters well. The artist says he was deeply moved by the experience of painting the former president this is our ability to say i matter i was here. The ability to be the first africanamerican painter to paint the first africanamerican president of the United States is absolutely overwhelming of the former First Lady Michelle Obama was painted by the black artist amy Sheryl Michelle declared herself both honored and humbled. Im also thinking about all the young people particularly girls and girls of color who in years ahead will come to this place and they will look up and they will see an image of someone who looks like them hanging on the wall of this Great American institution. The president ial portrait as a rite of passage for former u. S. Leaders. The images of the obamas have already attracted more attention than most. And out of jail in politics the social democrats are expected to appoint andreea nonis as if first ever female leader thats off the formal party leader and candidate for
