and eliminate syria's chemical weapons we would not only save lives but we would reduce the threat to the region and reenforce an international standard. we could allay the ground work for further cooperation that is essential to end the bloodshed that is consumed syria for more than two years. >> russia's foreign minister said that this was on the start of a long road, that there could be another peace conference by next month. >> in this approach agreed on, there is nothing said about the use of force, or about any automatic sanctions. as i said, all violations should be approved to the scouter council convincingly. and we understand that the decisions with i have reached today is only the beginning of the road. >> meanwhile, the head of the opposition free syrian army has rejected the deal, describing it as anishtive designed to gain time for the syrian government. >> we don't recognize the

russian initiative, and we think that the russians and the syrian regime are playing games to waste time and to win time for the criminal redeem in damascus. we think that our friends in the western countries and the united states know exactly the main goal of the russian administration. they are trying to find a solution for the regime in damascus. >> for more on these developments, speak to anita mcnaught, who is in turkey, and our diplomatic editor, who is at the united nations, but first, let's go to david who has been following those events in between have for us, and david, a very ambitious plan agreed to by the u.s. and russia. >> yes. this is an extraordinary break through, remember, only a week or so ago, we were thinking that tom

hawk crews missiles would be launchd from the mediterranean inside syria, now it looks like essentially 1,000 tons of very dangerous chemical arsenal will be removed from the scene of the syrian civil war. let's take a look at what is in the deal. asaad has been given a week to hand over a full list of his stock pile. his government must allow unfettered access by november. two goal is to destroy or remove the weapons by mid 2014, and if he dozen cooperate, the u.s. and russia will seek a security council resolution, where military action could be agreed upon. now this is a very important break through for the quite and russia, because they bailed to get any peace talks going last time, kerri and

lavrov met earlier this year in moscow, which i attended that meeting, and this means it's a long the difficult road, but it means essentially for this all goes to plan, and that's a big if, of course, if it goes to plan that will mean a real chance of ending this whole conflict, peacefully after 100,000 lives. now back to you in the studio. >> thank you very much, david, for the details of the plan agreed to by the u.s. and russia. let's speak now to anita who is in turkey for us. and anita, the head of the opposition free syrian army, very angrily rejected that plan, in a press conference a short while ago. >> to say he was a skeptic would be to understate his position.

as you heard, in that soundbite from him earlier on, he feels that it is a delaying tactic, a device to buy time for the regime while itn't cos in his words 20 pursue a campaign against syrians by all other means. the world is coming to grips with now. he rejects the russian label of the people fighting against the regime in syria, as being terrorists and says that in his view it is the rushes who are the terrorists for acting on behalf of asaad. and he layed some interesting accusations, he didn't source the intelligence for this in his press conference, but he suggested that they were moving the syrian regime was moving some of its chemical weapon stocks already. and at ahelp poe, and he

felt that indeed the killing would continue. so not at all convinced by this, 2014 far too late, not convinced it will happen at all, and not satisfied with this move. >> anita, thank you. let's speak now to james who is at the u. n. headquarters in new york for us, and james, any reaction from the united nations to this development? >> me formal reaction here, but i think the idea we have here that the chemical weapons request be booked without use, is one that was unthinkable a week ago, despite that, who will be a little uneasy about what has been decided. i 24 what they wanted was a bibbing security council resolution, that meant that if there was any violation it could legally allow for the use

of force. to try to get that chapter seven resolution, well it can happen any time. that's the normal procedure, and i think the problem is this, what if there is a violation, days, weeks away from now, and there's a dispute between the u.s. and the western powers and russia, and whether it really was a breech. you get that sort of dispute, you goo to the security council, russia says no informationn't a real violation, then they can veto any military action. i think some of the western nations are very very wear ray about that. just look at what the u. ambassador said a week ago about russia, she said russia has brought every relative infraction, and she went on toe say the

august 21st attack only occurred because president asaad felt that russia would have syria's back in the security council. >> james, thanks very much, once again. thank you all anita in turkey, james, there at the u.n., and david in geneva switzerland for us, thank you very much. >> in other news, hundreds of people are still missing in colorado. the water has killed at least four people, washed out dams and turned roads into rivers across the state. i had to pray, i had to sing to god, because

now to bring us the later on what is going on in colorado, as we were saying hundreds of people still missing and those really bad floods. is the weather going to cooperate? the wester does appear to

be over. to give you an idea of how bad it was, you would expect around 390-millimeters of rain, in an entire year. so it was an incredibly heavy amount of rain. >> why has there been so much rain? >> do you remember the flooding we saw in calgary back in june. that was due to a low pressure getting stuck. and this is the same thing. flash flood warnings you have a weather pressure that just gets stuck, you can get days and days of heavy rain. what we have here is a low pressure, and it sucks all this moisture up from the gulf of mexico. really tropical place, that has a lot of rain to give, and that just brought it up and that's why we saw all that heavy rain. >> you don't normally think of colorado as a wet place. >> exactly.

we don't think of the south, or the southwest, as a wet place, but they do have what is called the north american monsoon, and it does bring rain in the summer, so seeing rain this time of year isn't necessarily unusual, and it often give flash flooding but nothing like this. >> also more rain on the way. >> let me tell you about that in the weather. >> all right. >> you are saying the worse is definitely over. >> we will see heavy rain in colorado just for the next 46 hours but it will also be over new mexico as well, and it is to the south of that where it looks like we will have worse weather, it is over mexico where we have all eyes at the moment. >> all right, let's hear now about that weather in south america.

♪ just to is south of that as well. here are pictures out of guatemala, it gives you an idea of how bad the flooding situation is here. before guatemala, perhaps the worst is over, but it certainly isn't elsewhere. certainly has given us some very heavy downpours for some onus the west, that's thanks to a storm called manuel, but elsewhere we have another storm called ingrid, and it is these two working together what that is doing is sucking up a load of air from the southwest, and of course that will be full of tropical moisture and give us some very very heavy downpours. ten that's where we are expecting the wester of the wear, it could be over 600-millimeters of rain in the next couple of days from these systems.

and that's as much rain as london gets in an entire year. so you can imagine the devastation that that would cause and also the ground is already saturated for many of us here. so it is going to cause a major problems as we head through the next couple of days. the wettest of the weather again, but also along that east coast is where we are expecting very heavy downpours and strong winds. >> all right, thank you very much. well soldiers in the philippines are pushing deep into rebel territory, to try to end a six day stand off. the aannouncementment on midnight local time last night he managed to broker a cease fire between the philippine government and the

russia have reached annd agreement to destroy syria's chemical weapons. at least foyer people have died.

>> and soldiers in the philippines are pushing into rebel held territory to try and end a six day stand off. since the violence of rebels and government fors began. well, let's have a closer look at that agreement on syria between the u.s. and russia. james is a researcher association at the foreign policy center and joins us from london. welcome to al jazeera. once again, james, how big of a break through is this deal? >> yes, it is a pretty significant diplomatic break through. there must be something in the water in geneva. we saw an incredible amount of friendliness between kerry and las of. a week after some suspected would have cruise missiles heading to syria.

12 party that wasn't there today, of course, was bashar al-asaad. within the chapter seven resolution. >> exactly, what happens if there is a violation and the u.s. and russia and the rest of the u.n. security council can't agree on what to do? >> well, this is what generally addressed from the free syria army, was speculating on just after the kerry press conference, he said the whole thing is a game the regime is looking to buy time. the fact that the russians and americans have found a common ground as to what stocks the syrians have, gives them very very clear metrics as to what the aim is when it turns into this. flash flood warnings in the weeks to come, they

are found to be obstructing inspectors or not moving fast enough for this very very fast tract process. you mentioned the head of the army, very angry rejected this. he said they care more about chemical weapons then it does about the suffering of the people, have world powers lost site of the bigger picture? >> i think what doesn't make the headlines is the second element to this discussion, which is the idea that geneva 2, that long muted conference that was supposed to happen in may, could happen as early as october. there will be meetings in the general assembly later this month, so i don't think that this is just about chemical weapons, this is also about a long vision that the americans and russians have to be on the same page, when it comes to a settlement in syria, the fact that u.s. arms reportedly started showing up in northern syria to the opposition as was reported in the

washington post last week, shows that the americans are working on multiple tracks as are i'm sure the russians. so i think that there is an element -- there is a hope to be had. this this deal, this consensus can deliver some form of at least peace conference and of course the difficulty as to whether warring signs feel there's enough momentum. >> the reality is that many more people are being killed by conventional weapons than therapy chemical weapons, right? >> generally the figure of 8 million syrians displaced. they are projecting half the population will be depending on aid by the end of the year. i think that's part of the reason for the urgency. this conflict last year, has always threatened to spill over to explode into the region, lebanon and iraq, jordan, israel,

turkey, are watching on very wearily as to what is going on there, so i think that's another reason, for moscow and washington to find a consensus. >> james, thanks again for your perspective. with the foreign policy center, joining us from london. >> staying with syria in the flurry of diplomatic activity, hasn't end to anylesser fighting. two rebel groups said they form add joint command, that could improve their chances of getting control. anti-asaad fighters remain largely divided. opposition fighters have joined forced against president bashar al-asaad's troops in syria. >> the merger is the main demand of all fighters in syria, we need to be united to liberate.

>> these are fighters from the brigade, sent to support other fractions in homes. the group has been makeses gains in the north, over the last two years. >> the members of the jurier under unifined command by doing this, we will be able to celebration panned our reach, and have a bigger military role. >> he is seen here on the front line in aleppo, his job is to bring fighters under one command. >> this is his biggest challenge. fighters from france, an al quaida offshoot, back list bedty u.s. and those fighters say the goal is to establish an! ic state after the fall of the regime.

the army is -- has no way to control them. and in terms to reach out to major moderate groups, the most powerful and disciplined group have failed. they describe the free syrian army as a gathering of war lords. >> but one thing that most rebels agree on, is that damascus is where the most decisive battle is yet to take place, but the capitol is controlled by this group. on the ground, they remain -- in this case, capturing an army in the province. but rebels know that the final push to capture and

force asaad out of power may never take place if they remain fragmented. in iraq at least 23 people have been killed in the north of the country. it happened during a funeral. there's been more violence in the turkish capitol police fired tier gas to disrupt protestors. thousands gathers in the neighborhood where the cultural center is being built, antigovernment protests have been held for five days now. >> india's main opposition party has chosen its candidate for prime minister, but not everybody is happy, those that oppose hindu nationalist says he has been tainted by religious rights. more from new delhi.

>> supporters of india's main opposition party finally have a reason to celebrate, the party has chosen a leader to steer head its election campaign next year. and this is the man who people in the party think will steer them to victory. >> i will work hard to achieve victory. ly keep working hard to fulfill the hopes of the common man, and meet the expectation of the party. >> if he can convince hundreds of millions of voters he will be the next prime minister. in recent years he has built a big fan following in his home state. he has been credited with turning it into one of the best performing economies, and that may have contributed to his backing by senior party members. >> i think the party has taken the right decision

at the right time. he has been approved more than others and now with the elections just months away it is natural for any party to choose the leader that is most popular. >> but many people question whether he can get elected. in early 2002, this riot polarized opinions of his leadership. some people accused him of not doing enough to prevent or contain riots that targeted muslims, at least 1,000 people died. >> he has been controversial because for the kind of politics of division, which is pursued he is very steadfast with politics -- the social divisions in india, he has not practiced the politics of sek lurism, which has been a basic commitment of indian governments right from the time they became free in 1947. >> but an election victory is still a long way off, p b. j. p. has been in opposition for

almost ten years and in a country as diverse as india, he will have to do more than just secure the hindu vote to return his party to power. al jazeera, new delhi. >> in poland, tens of thousands of people are in warsaw's main square to protest against policies. they are holding banners calling for prime minister donald tuft to go, his government wants to raise the retirement ainge, overhaul the pension system, and make it easier for peoples to layoff people. opinion polls suggest that german chancellor party will get the most votes in the election to be held in a week, but there is a loyal following for a number of smaller parties. in a special series filed this report on the country's fringe political groups. >> on this stage of our tour of germany, the capitol overmeek len

burg. part of the former baseballer east germany, and a place where many voters are tempted by political extremes. >> they call themselves delenke, the left. and more than two decades the anticapitalist, anti-nato party is reaching out to the next generation of voters. >> it's at home here, while it now accepts democracy, it grew out of the communist party that ran the east german dictatorship. this party voter is out of a job, like around 13% of the population in the region, and out of unemployment benefits. she blames the big parties that she says don't care about the little people. >> it doesn't feel like we live in a democracy, or that the people are

being listened to. >> around one in five voters cast a ballot for the left party in the last regional elections here. that's the national democratic party, even though around one in 20 voters past a ballot for them last time around, they are a source of concern and even shame because of this countries past. >> his party just wants to help people in need, especially the poor. as long as they are german. >> we want the germany for germans. we aren't against foreigners per se, we just have to look after our own people first. >> to make that point, the n.t.d. holds rallies in town, shelters asylum seekers to say they are

unwelcome. sparking counter demonstrations say yes, they are. the ntd is not expected to get the 5% of votes needed to win seats in the national parliament, but they could still drain votes from say chancellor angle's party. the left party is expected to win seats maybe around 10%, but it is considered so beyond the pail that no parties will form a coalition. a long shot, unless the coalition should somehow leave the other parties with no other choice. on the next stage of our tour, we will be going to meet with supporters of chancellor's governing coalition. >> just ahead, a band with bite. sharks and soups off the menu at official events. why this weight lifting competition in north korea has made history, details coming up.
