News Hello you're listening to the news room from the b.b.c. World Service with me Jonathan savage. We begin in Canada where in the last few hours Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has managed to hang on to power and secure a 2nd term in office he seems to have lost his parliamentary majority but in the final days of the campaign it looked like he could lose the election altogether Amanda Alviro is a Liberal Party strategist she had this to see in the moments after her party's victory was projected Well it's been a tense campaign it's been exposed campaign and if you look back even like 78 months the liberals were really translating were 12 points behind so critics calling our way back gaining momentum but having it slip and slide throughout this campaign so tight that it was really impossible to call a correspondent Chris bucklers a Justin Trudeau as headquarters in the city of Montreal Chris this election was seem as a referendum Mr to go and he seems to have survived it.

Popular and noisy Montreal thank you very much now to Japan where the Emperor Naruhito will soon be enthroned 5 months after his father Akihito became the 1st emperor to abdicate in 200 years. In heavy rain the Emperor was welcome to the Imperial Palace by hundreds of foreign dignitaries including notably Hong Kong's chief executive Kerry Lamb who caught at times a lonely figure outside onlookers reflected on their hopes for Emperor Now he talked about assume. It'll be nice if the new emperor will be as kind hearted as the former emperor and stay close to the people as well the Emperor's role is now largely symbolic Today's in throne month is for many Japanese the high point of the Imperial transition with traditions that go back centuries Here's our correspondent report Wingfield taste.

They would not be letting up we'll keep on because they'd be part now it's not full on that people use you seeing the other source on networks I send you a message not to believe all the things that that that you don't really want you don't government are saying to investigate testimonies of poor p. . People people that are in the street it's someone who's been trying to cope with the unrest is Rudolph or Carter the mayor of Los Lorita a neighborhood in the capital Santiago problem it's not about the for merchants it's about how you resolve this duration of your your people you're. Asking for change they need if you don't change they're not having that that's the problem spoke earlier to a reporter in Santiago Jean chambers we are in the middle of a curfew here in Santiago and just like the last 2 nights of the curfew lots of people are defying and they're still out on the streets and they're kind of barricades and roadblocks and military troops going around seeing what's happening and what's interesting as well is that this curfew has been extended to other cities from regions in Chile so the young breast is spreading it's not just here in Santiago so a curfew at night but you were out in the boat during the day what's it like on the streets of Santiago in the daytime when it's been really hard for people to move around today I mean there was a lot of damage done to the Metro system on Friday Saturday and Sunday so that's only one line running and not all of that you know talking to people they've had to walk like an hour to get to a bus stop and then wait for a really long time to get their buses being ready difficult for people to get to work but also there's an issue of feed I mean a lot of supermarkets have been looted so most of them were closed today and little neighborhood shops are open but them massive keys for that and massive petrol stations I think people kind of panic buying I try to go and get some money out there's no money there and different people you know talking about why this is going on and angry about things that are going on are they also angry a boat for example President peña using language like we are at war especially in. Context of Chile's history a lot of people are very angry about that and they don't like this state of emergency where you see troops on the streets and you know there have been a lot of tanks today and tear gas and water cannon but I have to say this is a very much a country that's divided a lot of people I spoke to are also happy to have the troops on the streets and think they're necessary and they feel more secure so you've got mixed opinions and I've seen President been yet to give a public speech on television where I think he is not backing down but you know he admits that his language was tough went saying that wear a country at war and he said he did that because he was so angry about what he says as a small minority of delinquents and he would argue and has said that the military are out and we have this curfew to protect us from this small minority Jane chambers and Santiago the Russian president Vladimir Putin will meet his Turkish counterpart Russia tight 3rd one in Sochi later for talks which will focus on the situation in Syria Turkey's been carrying out an offensive against Kurdish led forces northern Syria a cease fire is currently in place in the region but is set to run out later on Tuesday our Moscow correspondent sirrah Rainsford reports the visit by tech is leader to Vladimir Putin at this critical moment underlines the pivotal role Russia now plays in Syria when the United States abruptly abandoned its conditionalities there 2 weeks ago clearing the way for Turkish forces to move then it was Russia that helped the Kurds negotiate with Syrian government troops for protection now as Mr Putin will sit down with regular tire pair due on and discuss the scale and scope of the safe zone that Turkey insists on creating along its border the politics and the practicalities of clear and an area of Kurdish militias that turkey calls terrorists if anchor is not satisfied the 5 day cease fire it agreed to expires tonight.

Scientists in the United States have developed a new way of editing d.n.a. Which they say can correct 89 percent of the genetic errors that cause disease the team has used the technology to reverse some mutations in the laboratory but say more work is needed to turn it into an effective way of preventing and treating illness our health and science correspondent James Gallagher reports d.n.a. Is the instruction manual for building and running our bodies but a small error in the genetic code can cause disease scientists at the Broad Institute in Cambridge Massachusetts have developed a highly accurate way of altering d.n.a. Called Prime editing they say it works like a word processor giving scientists the ability to search through d.n.a. And then make precise changes they've used the technology to correct a single typo out of the 3000000000 letters of the human genetic code as well as remove unwanted d.n.a. Or add new genetic material the study in the journal Nature showed prime editing could correct the mutation the least to sickle cell anemia their searches have proven their molecular machinery can correct nearly 9 in 10 of the genetic errors that cause disease However they stress this is only the beginning the big challenge will be getting that gene editing technology into the right parts of the body where it can make a difference James Gallagher a reminder of our main headline supporters of the governing Liberal Party in Canada are celebrating after projections suggested it would win the most seats in the general election but it may have to form a minority government listening to the b.b.c. World Service it's approaching 420 g.m.t. . And now to Israel where Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu is decade long grip on power a suffered a major blow he's conceded he cannot form a government after failing to secure a majority at elections in September. Shannon a short time ago I informed the president that I was handing back my mandate to try to form a government ever since I received a mandate I acted nonstop both openly and secretly in order to form a wide national unity government this is what the people want this is also what Israel needs in the face of the security challenges which grow bigger daily and hourly so this all means that his political rival Benny Gantz will no be given 28 days to do well Mr Netanyahu could not form a functional coalition government if he can't then Israel may be sent back to the polls yet again I asked our reporter Gary Barlow about Benny Gantz his chance of success well he might find it just is difficult He's the former head of the military under Benyamin Netanyahu and his blue white party which he now leads said it's time for the spin is over it's time for action and they want to form a liberal unity government they won 33 seats in September's election and already Israeli Arab politicians say they will back the blue and white party to try and form this coalition but that still leaves Benny Gantz over a dozen seats short of the $61.00 he needs to form a majority and he's only got $28.00 days to try and find that coalition and bring them together now his efforts follow on the heels of Benyamin Netanyahu He's Israel's longest serving prime minister and it was decided he would have the best chance of forming a coalition despite his political star waning so if he struggled you might find that Benny Gantz will struggle to say what a remarkable year for Israeli politics it certainly is because we're referring to September's election unless we forget there was one back in 80. Rule both the parties then the main parties 135 seats apiece and they failed to form a coalition so in the classic way of politicians they put the question back to the public and that brought us to the current situation now if Benny Gantz can't form a government in 28 days it's possible that a 3rd candidate might be put forward to trial though that some likely the more likely solution is they'll be a 3rd election this all happens Meanwhile I mean you have to know who is facing corruption investigations Now he denies those claims we should know whether he'll face any charges at some point in December and because of those potential claims surrounding him but again says he won't form a coalition with Benjamin Netanyahu there's so much politics still to go and Gareth Barlow there. There have been more than 400000 opioid related deaths in the United States over the past 2 decades one American dies every 11 minutes for many of these victims' families there was hope in a landmark trial in Ohio that could have held drug manufacturers responsible but the 4 major pharmaceutical companies involved have no settled out of court to the tune of $260000000.00 And crucially with no admission of guilt the b.b.c. Visited a children's camp in Maryland that helps those who come from families struggling with opioid addiction My name is Jake 12 years old. And then 11 years old dear indention dear diction Why did you turn my parents into something that they're not here to our partner and family why mine I don't know why own father because of you I have cried because of you because of you that really that corn general in people's lives I've been lied to because of you I can have a normal childhood or a life because of you signed it upset child. I had them write letters to addiction one of them talked about I hope at some point somebody is able to to make this stop and so I want to be that person who makes this stuff My name is Jan Brown and the program partner for camp Spears on. Our guy and I have to say every one of us has a parent close friend or relative who's drug abuse upsets us. Doesn't really saying anything about my dad and runs really doesn't see anything about my dad but . My dad the band like why is he doing drugs instead of me but really she does says he's not always a bad person. I just stop asking questions I dad would bring like needles into the house and then my friends when they come over they're like what and I would like be embarrassed to bring any more friends over and I'd be kind of scary too to have needles in the House but certainly would be pretty embarrassing sure. All right show of hands do you have a parent close friend or relative who has died from drug abuse. So we got 100 percent of hands does anybody want to talk about that and I know people overdosed died. You shouldn't go to you shouldn't go to rest like that you should go to rest in a peaceful way not hurting and. I know that so that's why we're doing this work right is because all of us have those very very very hard and tragic things in common so hopefully having conversations like this will help you feel better about yourselves and help you feel and know that you're not alone. They just need one person. Who is going to be willing to listen to them who is going to be essentially a safe person because their families are pretty broken 7. I can't even imagine what they're living through just hearing their stories. It's unconscionable I mean it's just it shouldn't be that way but there is always hope there is always hope I mean you can see it in their eyes I mean if nothing more. Than seeing that it's all worth it. That report ending with John Brown from Spirit song the children's comp in Ohio helping families struggling with addiction finally on the newsroom Let's return to the Canadian election which saw Prime Minister Justin Trudeau win a 2nd term albeit with a minority of seats in parliament and usually
