i chain with the pain likely spread across the world i do you know castro al jazeera washington let's get more on this now acosta is joining us live from beijing has there been any reaction. elizabeth no official reaction on the latest news coming out of washington on late on monday but we know even just twenty four hours before this announcement was made by president trump chinese officials were saying that they will not negotiate this trade situation this trade friction under pressure and obviously adding two hundred billion dollars worth of more tariffs is more pressure one chinese official even characterize it as we're not going to go shit with a loaded gun pointed to our head so obviously there will be some kind of retaliation it's intice a paid it's been reported it could be about sixty billion dollars in tariffs focused on mostly focused on i should say supply chains those manufacturers here in china that supply manufacturers in the united states with components to put

together bigger products they feel as though that's probably where they're going to hit next but also it's very interesting we've heard these rumblings over the last say two weeks that there could be repercussions maybe not tariffs you know number adding to that sixty billion but there could be repetitions for american companies operating in china through mechanisms such as delaying approvals delaying permits those kinds of things so those companies would lose money not necessary tied to tariffs but that could also hit those american companies who are trying to operate here in china which is what american businesses a lot of american businesses about and warning about meanwhile if the chinese government is not going to negotiate with the you with what are they doing to protect the economy against these terror. it's very interesting you know and it's funny because you know the way that they're trying to work things right now it's kind of you know there have been there's one thing that's very interesting talks trade talks had been going on between the two

countries and even until this announcement came out of washington they were pretty much planning the logistics of the next round of trade talks so they've been trying to move things forward they've been trying to figure out how they can protect china can protect its companies from these tariffs going back and forth now what's interesting is that that's why this announcement some here feel analysts here feel that is very suspect was almost a surprise because it came out of nowhere when you actually had the details of the next trade talks being negotiated so it's very interesting to see how that moves toward china saying that they are able to protect the consumers that their economy because it's been growing that they're going to be ok moving forward but obviously when you see the things escalate as they have would imagine both sides are very very concerned about how this is going to move forward lisbeth thank you very much for that for now that's quite highly with the latest live and beijing thank you and of the past india says it's delayed and posing for the taps on goods imported from the u.s. until november and had been planning to impose the new taps on tuesday u.s.

. and apple will be hit. russian state media is reporting that contact has been lost with a reconnaissance aircraft over the mediterranean sea just off the syrian coast fourteen a russian service when we're on board the plane as it was returning to latakia province all this happened as syrian air defense forces and deceptive a number of missiles fired at the coastal city of latakia the missiles were targeting a state run industrial compound it's not clear who launched the strikes but israel is suspected it's thought to have been behind a series of earlier strikes targeting iranian and hezbollah forces who are fighting alongside the government stephanie decker has the latest from on talk here that's near turkey's border with syria. a lot of mixed reports soon after the reports of these explosions multiple explosions but soon after the syrian official state news

agency sanna putting out a statement saying that its air defense systems had intercepted multiple missiles quoting a military source saying that they were missiles that came from the sea so that will rule out reading between the lines the rebel forces putting it more on to a state actor because it was in the mediterranean you have various the presence of u.s. naval vessels the brits the turks and also israeli submarines believed to have to be placed there israel has been accused in the possibly using it submarines of targeting latakia of course these things are never confirmed israel does confirm however that it does target iran when you know backed forces on the ground or weapon shipments or shipments it believes are deemed to the group has bought a lot so again nothing confirmed but we do know that a technical institute was hit this is according to syrian state news agency the russian media spot nick saying that it was syrian army infrastructure so things not

exactly what exactly was hit but the video showing large fireballs in the sky multiple missiles used but again it just shows you how complicated syria's war is with all the talk is about the last a rebel held stronghold in libya last stand of the opposition you still have various state actors with a lot of interests when it comes to syria. but russia and turkey have agreed to set up a demilitarized zone and said he has lost a rebel held province of idlib let's hope this will keep government forces and rebel fighters apart russia's defense minister says that means they'll be no military assault which many were fearing or a challenge reports from moscow. for weeks it libya's been bracing itself for the assault that seemed imminent damascus and moscow signaled it was coming for they wanted to clear out serious. final rebel stronghold and after a low bombs had started falling again but following a marathon meeting in sochi it looks like turkey's president has persuaded latvia

putin to try something different for a while at least the assault is off now that they are. joining the meeting we took a close look at the situation and decided to create a demilitarized zone along the contact line a syrian government forces and the armed opposition fifteen to twenty kilometers deep by the fifteenth of october of the current year it's a success for russia type are the one who has mounted an urgent diplomatic campaign to avert what the united nations said would be a major humanitarian disaster while much of it together we will ensure the detection and the prevention of provocation of third parties and violations of the agreement with this aim russia and turkey will carry out coordinate patrols on the borders of both sides of the demilitarized zone that will be designated all heavy weapons will have to be withdrawn from the buffer zone and what putin called radically minded rebels including higher. would have to pull out the details are to

be agreed with damascus according to russia's defense minister yet again it's been made clear that despite all the talk of syria's territorial integrity its sovereignty that it's syrians themselves that should be deciding the fate of their country ultimately it's outside powers that are calling the shots but those outside powers have their limitations to russia can't ignore turkey and monday's developments show that things russia needs to call it syrian intervention a success the return of refugees reconstruction the political process would be all but impossible without ankara's involvements turkey terrified of a new wave of homeless syrians put its foot down moscow listened and did lip gets a reprieve for now rory chalons how does iran moscow. in yemen pro-government forces backed by the united arab emirates have launched a new phase of the offensive against the rebels in the day the fighting flared again in the port city last week after the hope these failed to attend peace talks

of this section of the once mighty tigris river. barely enough water to escape iraq's burning daytime heat the tigris and the euphrates rivers were the main water supplies for these once lush rice fields. farmers like raman used to be able to grow up to eighty square metres of rice. that's only a little over one percent of the size of an average football pitch but it helped to keep his family alive now he produces barely a fraction of what if you grow before now and you have said look how dry this land is we can't get enough water even the water irrigation canals are empty and. iraq's ministry of water resources says that levels in rivers like the tigris here in baghdad have dropped up to forty percent over the last twenty years they say that partly to blame our dams and reservoirs which are being built in turkey to the north and they're restricting the flow of water southwards but also in the last

nine months iraq's only had about half the amount of rainfall it normally gets over the course of a year and that's making things even worse it's estimated iraq strategic water reservoirs contain eight billion cubic meters of water less than the minimum the country needs so the government says it's stepping in the minute i don't feel how we plan to cultivate around fifty square kilometers of rice as well as sixteen thousand square kilometers of orchards and vegetables for people to use in their homes but we can't provide as much water for crops as we did in previous years. farmers tried digging wells to reach water underground but it's often saturated with salt and that's a deadly for plants. in the past we made more profit and we were rich with crops now we can hardly grow enough underground water isn't a solution it's a big problem to not have much water to irrigate your crops many farmers are taking

jobs as laborers in the streets and on building sites leaving behind their dealing fields wrote matheson al-jazeera back down. the head of the i.m.f. has warned that another deal exit from the european union will come at a big cost to the u.k. christine legarde says oppressions growth rate will be less than half the global average event of a slow to break the transition as the queen paul brennan reports. at one point in her news conference christine legarde described herself as a desperate optimist but delivering the i.m.s. latest assessment of the u.k. economy her tone was repeatedly downbeat about britain post rex it so whatever the deal is will not be as good as it is at the moment and asked about the seemingly growing prospect of britain crashing out without a break to deal now clearly that was to happen our assessment is that it would have very dear economy consequences it would be a shock to supply. and it would inevitably have

a series of consequences in terms of. reduced growth going forward. increase deficit most likely depreciation of the currency and. you know in reasonably short order mean a reduction of the size of the u.k. economy the bracket deadlines are approaching fast for britain to depart the european union in an orderly manner next march they really need to agree the e.u. divorce bill by the end of this year and a u. leaders are braced for an emergency summit mid november but the british prime minister theresa may is facing considerable opposition to her compromise proposal the so-called checkers plan and if that is rejected by the u.k. parliament then the very real prospect of a no deal bracks it looms boris johnson resigned from the government over bracks it

and has taken to sniping from his regular newspaper column the whole thing is a constitutional abomination he writes and if checkers were adopted it would mean that for the first time since ten sixty six our leaders were deliberately acquiescing in foreign rule the presidency of the e.u. is currently with austria and its leader is visiting paris for talks with the french president. i think there we agree that we have to do everything possible to avoid a heartbreak to make possible the strong cooperation between the u.k. and the european union even after the u.k. leaving the e.u. the e.u. chief negotiator michel barnier is in madrid with little to add i don't want to address how sorry i don't want to answer my question to you we. can't believe that this will be. a spirit of good cooperation with the final words there mr ban a will give a fuller assessment when he brings ministers from the remaining twenty seven member
