CNNW CNN Newsroom Live November 24, 2017

To spend lots of green on this black friday. Welcome to our viewers in the United States and around the world. Im max foster in london. This is cnn newsroom. Our top story on this hour. After 37 years of increasingly authoritarian rule, this manual em mer sop mnangagwa is about to be sworn in as interim president. Many wonder if the countrys new chapter will be much different from the last. Mugabe fired him as his deputy just a couple of weeks ago. The move triggered a political backlash with the zimbabwean military firing him. Theyre back promising to lead zimbabwe into a new and unfolding democracy. David mckenzie live from zimbabwes capital. Has he arrived yet . Okay. Wasnt technical problems with david there as we try to fix them. Were going to show you live pictures of the scene there at the inauguration. You can see all of the dignitaries arriving there. We know the leader of the opposition has already arrived. There they are sort of building up to the big moment. David, hopefully you can hear us now. Looks like a pretty upbeat atmosphere there. Hes gone again. Speaking for him i think when the pictures speak a thousand words. Everyone excited about this moment in modern zimbabwe history. The long time leader warning that the new interim president may be no better than his predecessor. He spoke to cnns christian amanpour. At the center he knows that he cannot continue on the same path mugabe has traveled and still expect a nation to respect it. The constitutionally elections can be held no longer than august, and i hope that emerson completing the rule will continue the path. Stay with us. Well be following the swearing in ceremony for you and well hear from our reporter about how ordinary zimbabweans feel about it. Theyve more than doubled the sentence of the blade runner of oscar pistorius. The prosecution had appealed as it being too lenient. His to pistorius shot and killed his girlfriend on valentines day. Thursday was thanksgiving in the United States. President donald trump said americans have a lot to be thankful for, including the service and sacrifice of their military. The commander in chief visited coast guard members thanking them for their efforts after hurricanes in texas, florida, and puerto rico. He also spoke to troops serving abroad telling them his administration is on their side. Were being talked about again as an armed forces. Were really winning. We know how to win. But we have to let you win. They werent letting you win before. Were doing well at home. The economy is doing really great. When you come back youre going to see with the jobs and the companies coming back into our country and the stock market just hit a record high. Unemployments the lowest its been in 17 years. So youre fighting for something really, youre fighting for something good. Well, the president was also on twitter telling the americans that the country is starting to do very well. Mr. Trumps legal team is dealing with new developments in the russian investigation. Cnn has learned that Michael Flynns lawyers have told other defense teams including donald trump they will no longer share information about the probe. The National Security adviser could be cooperating with the special counsels office or maybe negotiating a deal. Mr. Trumps legal team says that isnt entirely unusual. Washington grappling with a series of recent harassment allegations. Democratic senator al franken apologized on thursday for accusations that he groped a woman at a state fair. Recent accounts made him realize hes crossed a line for some women. He adds hes sorry and wants to make sure it doesnt happen again. Meanwhile, a lawyer for john conyers wont resign after his allegations. The House Ethics Committee is investigating the claims. Lets get more on the state of u. S. Politics. University of birmingham in the u. K. Founder of e. A. World view. He joins us via skype from birmingham. Thank you for joining us. First of all, on flynn, whats to say about the russia investigation do you think . Hes obviously the suggestion is hes moving more to the side of the investigators and away from the white house on this. This says generally that the investigation contrary to what the white house has said is expanding rather than contracting. This could be a sign because flynns lawyers have said they will no longer speak with trumps lawyers, that Michael Flynn is now cooperating with special counsel and if he is cooperating, that means the evidence goes higher up. There could be evidence about jared kushner, there could be evidence about jeff sessions, the attorney general, there could even be evidence about donald trump himself. We wont know that, of course, because there will be some time if flynn is cooperating for all of that information to be collected and assessed by the team. I think beyond this what this means is we have seen one Trump Campaign staffer who has pled guilty, george papadopoulos. We have seen two indicted including Campaign Manager paul manafort. We have seen expanding questions about the foreign contact between trump and russian officials and about possible collusion, lets use the word, over the campaign. It will take months to establish this but this will be an investigation that will go into 2018 with significant political implications, including possibly the future of donald trump. No surprise that hes out in front of the troops praising his work so far in the white house. Oh, absolutely. I mean, even if it wasnt for trump and russia, the fact is that first and foremost donald trump likes to talk about winning for donald trump and of course losing for barack obama. So the message yesterday at thanksgiving was very pointed. It was under the Obama Administration you couldnt win, now you can. Well, we can talk about the complexity of the ongoing conflict in the middle east beyond the middle east. We can talk about the ongoing issues in afghanistan, we can talk about facing up to russia. Thats not what donald trump wants to talk about. He wants to give the image he is the commander in chief who everybody respects and adores despite the fact that his military commanders have some questions. In terms of his accomplishments, what can he really point to here in terms of something substantive . What can he get done by the end of the year to prove that hes living up to his word . He can really only point to the image of having accomplished something and hope you buy it. There have been zero major legislative accomplishments since january. The immediate question is whether the administration can get tax cuts through. Now they have passed the house. That 1. 5 package has to get through the senate and that is facing difficulties but also watch out for Something Else because the supplemental funding for the government, emergency funding, if you will, expires on december 11th and theres still no sign that we have a government budget which is prepared to be adopted. If thats true, congress has to convene urgently to talk about more emergency funding and indeed breaking the debt ceiling. So i think its going to be ongoing as it were uncertain waters for the Trump Administration rather than a clearcut win. Professor lucas from birmingham, thank you very much. Indeed. In the u. S. And around the world, black friday is underway. Huge crowds gathered outside Department Store macys in new york. National Retail Federation expects shoppers to spend more than ever.

Lets turn the page at zimbabwes capital. The atmosphere looks pretty electric. Reporter thats right, max. Certainly there is a sense of anticipation like none other in zimbabwe. They lived under the rule of Robert Mugabe. Now a new ruler is coming in closely associated with mugabe. They hope for a new zimbabwe. Take a listen to regents who have spoken to just a little bit earlier. Why did you come out today . Were here to celebrate for a new president , mnangagwa. Reporter are you happy the president is gone . When things are over for someone, its offver for you. Lets put something to upgrade everything in zimbabwe. Reporter so you need an upgrade. What are the big things facing zimbabweans . Mining, farming, education. Everything. What im saying, upgrade everything. Upgrade it. For the many things. Do you think mnangagwa can do this . Yes. Do you think he can do this . Yes. Why . Potential. Reporter potential . Yes. Reporter and so you still have people streaming in behind me. Theyre coming in a bit because we know Emerson Mnagagwa and several heads of state and the leader of the opposition. People are hoping for a fresh break here in zimbabwe. Something new. Something to be hopeful for. Despite the fact that the military orchestrated this handover, theyre at least for now hoping this will be a fresh start for themselves and for the economy of zimbabwe, max. Any knowledge of mugabe and his movements today . Reporter well, we did hear earlier he might be attending and then state media said, you know, hes had, quote, a heck take week, which is a bit of an understatement since he was pushed out of power and held in detention and was negotiating with the military rulers, the temporary rulers. We do know that he got immunity. That hes being kept safe. No sign of him yet. Maybe he wont come. Certainly its an end for a liberation hour row who led this country to independence but now for many people ive been speaking to today and throughout the week, max, has kind of lost that love. They said he ruined this country, in their words. They want something new. Its mnangagwe who brings that. He isnt even sworn in yet so well wait and see. Hes only sworn in as an interim. I know the leader of the opposition says there has to be this election very soon. We need to get that timetable, dont we, for the stability to remain in the country . Reporter i think both for stability, max, and also for International Involvement and assistance. Ive been speaking to diplomats and others, the u. S. Ambassador. I spoke to him just yesterday and he said that really what they need to see is a timetable, that zimbabwe needs to hold that election. Once they do and its fair game, they can talk. Emerson mnangagwa is under sanctions for previous disputed elections and allegations of abuse and human rights abuse. So this is not a man coming into this job squeaky clean, anything but, but he does come in with a considerable amount of power and a great deal of goodwill from the zimbabwean people who see him as the man who pushed mugabe out. Papa new Guinea Police say 300 people have been removed from a Detention Center and taken to a new camp. They entered the manus island facility. One man alleges they beat the detainees with sticks. The center was set up by australia. Authorities have declared the Center Closed but detainees are refusing to move out. A critical clue in the search of the missing Argentine Navy submarine. They have confirmed a noise detected near the last known location of the ara san juan is consistent with an explosion. Family members have been devastated by the news and are gathering at the base for news. Reporter the search is still on for the missing argentine submarine that has been missing for over a week now and the Argentinian Navy is urging relatives and fellow argentinians to keep hopes alive saying theyre still hopeful to locate and rescue the san jon and the 44 crew members. Theyve already confirmed that a noise was detected in the area where the san juan made contact. It was a noise that the navy said it was consistent with an explosion. That was enough to cause tragic reaction and panic among the relatives who are here and were confidence and hopeful to welcome those crew members back home again. In particular, we were able to speak with a couple of them and heres what they had to say this morning. Reporter so very, very strong words, strong accusations against the Argentinian Navy saying they were not communicating as they should have. Meanwhile, the Argentinian Navy confirms that the noise has been detected but rejects to cancel any of the option as it still says that theyre putting on the best effort possible to locate those 44 crew members. The u. S. Navy says its given up the search for three sailors lost in the philippine sea. They were on board a plane that came down southwest of the japanese island okinawa.

Thats the commander of the eighth fighter wing, colonel david schumaker, and this happens every day. A practice faceoff with north korea. We practice just some of the basic maneuvers for air to air or some of the basic bombing patterns or bombing maneuvers. We also practice the ability to survive and operate on the ground. Reporter cue san is the southernmost base in south korea. Flying time to north korea, 12 minutes. What do the first few hours of the first two hours look like . Time isnt measured on the clock, its measured in casualties. The faster we can get on the job the less casualties well see particularly in seoul and the opening volley of that war. Reporter in war time, kusong could increase their number of fighters. We expect that north korea is going to target any of our military bases that are here in the south. Reporter what kind of threat could north korea present to the because here . We worry about their short range ballistic miss aisles. Reporter they stay ready to fend off a Ground Invasion from north korean Ground Forces and to take the fight north in the air. Obviously having the air to surface capability, being able to take out the long range artillery that would be bomba bombarding seoul. This is the third tour for schumaker. Its different. We know north korea has advanced. Have you changed that you do things at all . It is a mind shift switch about why it is so important and one that we take our exercises and training. This is diesels third flight in two days. He puts us on the ground as the sun sets. The supersonic jet quiet. Its pilot always ready. Alexandra field, cnn. South korea. Stay with us.
