12:03 pm
lessons of what just happened here we need to move forward in good faith. but faith between the two parties is lacking particularly on immigration that issue was the source of the shutdown stalemate as democrats demanded protections for so-called dreamers young undocumented immigrants brought to the country as children and republicans refused monday's compromise as a concession from democrats to reopen the government under intense public pressure while accepting a promise from republicans to address immigration later we have not yet protect their create just young dreamers not only should we protect them we should embrace them value them we should be grateful for the inspiration they are to america all our important work for the american people had to be put all while this manufactured crisis was dealt well we made no substantive progress and i want to err on the serious bipartisan negotiation that will try.

12:07 pm
to the offensive russia had military personnel in a free in which it has now pulled out the people of africa and we've spoken to feel a sense of abandonment a feeling of betrayal echoed in a news conference by the syrian democratic forces further east of a free in the group backed by the u.s. to fight eisel with the bulk of its fighters from the wipe e.g. north of lots of turkey would not have dared to show our cities or villages or commit crimes against our children without russia violating their ethical obligation towards us and giving the green light to turkey to fly their jet fighters over offer in skies therefore russia is required to provide an explanation of the circumstances around the turkish aggression against our people an explanation may be hard to come by the politics of syria's war are being played out behind closed doors the war however is as active as ever it's been really difficult to get information out of a free because the columns have been so bad but we have managed to speak to some sources who tell us that life inside the city of offering itself is pretty normal
12:08 pm
they say the y.p. g. is adamant that they are not going to give up the city or the region they do tell us however that from the border going to just the people who live there many have moved further into because of turkey's relentless shelling and that is something that we've been hearing here intensively throughout the day. there's been a steady stream of minute she hardware heading to the border turkey says it will not stop its offensive until it is pushed the wipe away from its borders further complicating syria's almost seven year long war stephanie decker zero on the turkey syria border. now as trails president. the u.s. was president on the final day as visit these pictures of. president president and west jerusalem came through just a short time ago appends became the first u.s. president to address the knesset on monday his speech was chaired. i must spend most of parliament but i called by israeli palestinian m.p.
12:09 pm
as well as get more on this was a valid sponsor for setting us live for us from occupied east jerusalem how was this visit being covered by local media there harry. today is very much that the last of the greats climax as far as many israelis are concerned at the speech that he gave i spent vice president pence to the knesset yesterday the reviews that came in from the israeli cabinet were incredibly positive from the prime minister himself calling it a magnificent speech and we've seen similar kind of stuff in the israeli media as well as you say he's just started his meeting with president reagan rivlin he is no great political ally of prime minister and you know but it shows the breadth of support that there has been across this really political spectrum for what's being analyzed is a speech very different from those of previous u.s. administration senior officials there's one fairly instructive and i was just
12:10 pm
a bit one of the newspapers here saying that everyone was waiting for the other shoe to drop for the button to come in not speeches but in previous such speeches the but said being about the settlements had been about strong advice about how to deal with the palestinians and to seek peace there was no such other side of calling in the speech from my vice president yesterday it was one of almost utter support for israel has been received with great positivity because of that yeah so where then does that leave the palestinians harry are they in the same position as they were post trauma speech has that pends as a changed anything. i think in terms of the the material situation it is very much as it has been since december the sixth since donald trump's speech and since the palestinians decided that they were going to try to set aside any u.s. involvement in the peace process and see. other frameworks other potential sponsors
12:11 pm
and mediators and you saw that with the visit of president abbas to europe and is he seeking not that kind of mediation however i think what it does do is really adds to the the huge change in tone that there has been under this administration even as it is still trying to put the finishing touches to its own peace find it a bit of religiosity to get the very strong alliance without as was noted in the media coverage any real criticism or already kind of expectation of any change in attitude towards the palestinians that we've seen under this administration that was really very much statement said in mike pence his remarks yesterday and so to hear it does it really confirm again what the palestinians still from donald trump and as i think made to many more resolute to turn away from the united states in terms of the peace process going forward ari thank you very much for that half an hour but have a faucet joining us with the very latest our very windy occupied east jerusalem.
