8:07 pm
us on our knees is a pipe dream of people who are ignorant about us but the problem is that the continued sanctions are deepening our mistrust the reason behind the recent deadlock is because the us relies on chorus of measures which are lethal to trust building without any trust in the us will be no confidence in our national security and under such circumstances there is no way we'll unilaterally just sells first but the u.s. position here at the u.n. general assembly was consistent mike pompei own nikki haley both saying that maximum pressure still needs to be applied on north korea before new and only then would north korea see the rewards however donald trump was very upbeat here in new york saying a great deal of progress has been going on behind the scenes that will be revealed shortly that he's not worried about timeframes so it will be interesting to see whether this latest appeal makes donald trump who after all is the most invested in this process in the white house think again about whether it's time for the u.s. to take reciprocal action funerals have been held for the seven palestinians

8:11 pm
as a nonmember state which then the court will have to address in this decision since the court's jurisdiction in this case will only be possible if it can conclude that palestine meets the international law test for statehood as far as the court's jurisdiction relates to that there is a parallel situation with the nicaragua case that was brought against the u.s. in the one nine hundred eighty s. and in that case as perhaps will happen here the u.s. argued that the i.c.j. didn't have jurisdiction and when the court found that it did have jurisdiction the u.s. then withdrew from one of the particular ways that the court can exercise jurisdiction but what we might see is the u.s.
8:12 pm
arguing against this and it may take further steps as it did in the neck or argue a case for example within the u.n. security council to try to impede any decision of the i.c.j. against it still ahead on al-jazeera turkey's president opens one of europe's biggest mosques in germany. teachers in morocco debate on which dialect is most suitable for students. well i was warm and dry in baku at the moment but there are showers around the caspian and then rather more obvious just north of toronto side of the mountains and the white clouds here is returning to the caucasus so i think we'll see redevelopment now in the next twenty four hours you know all the showers here and

8:19 pm
perhaps realizing that these two countries with such important common interests between them had led relations slide to such a degree since the failed coup in turkey two years ago that they were simply no longer cooperating on matters that really matter to both of them like the syrian crisis and like the refugee crisis like economic ties between the trading partners while turkey and president are one battle through the worst economic crisis in fifteen years of course that's a big issue for the germans to that extent they have extended the hand of cooperation to one another they've announced a new initiative on syria they've reinforced agreements on the refugees and they put up a good show of economic cooperation but it's been extremely difficult to hide the deep differences that exist between these two governments president to one inside that mosque there opening the biggest mosque in europe here in the german city of cologne outside competing demonstrations those in favor of his presence here and
8:20 pm
those many germans extremely opposed and happy that their government has extended this invitation to a man who represents to many germans human rights abuses abuses of freedom of the press the backsliding of democracy in turkey unhappy about their government's relations with him i think this has been a pragmatic visit it's been an effort to restore useful cooperation on important matters but these two leaders these two countries don't part at this my point anyway as new friends or having rekindled any old friendship while turkey which backs a section of the syrian opposition was the target of the syrian foreign minister at the u.n. general assembly well said his government is close to winning the war has some how about our reports from new york. it was a defiant. telling the international community basically that they have to come to terms with the fact that bashar assad has the upper hand and that is just
8:21 pm
a matter of time before the syrian army takes over the whole of syria now even if the syrians take over the territory they lost to the opposition they will have to deal with a particular issue which is the presence of the turkish army in the northern part of the country french and american troops based in the eastern part of syria they are there to provide assistance to the kurdish militias operating there now for the syrian foreign minister what is the marlin those troops have to pull out otherwise the syrian army will use force let's listen to what the syrian farmers have to say in. any foreign presence on syrian territory without the consent of the syrian government is illegal and constitutes a flagrant violation of international law and the un charter it's an assault on our sovereignty which undermines counterterrorism efforts and threatens regional peace and security we therefore consider any forces operating on syrian territory without
8:22 pm
an explicit request from the government including us french and turkish forces occupying forces who will be dealt with accordingly they must withdraw immediately and without conditions. what is the describe the opposition as terrorists describe the neighboring countries particularly turkey as a safe haven for terrorist groups moving into syria who dismiss calls for dialogue that would pave the ground for the opposition to share power with the government saying that bashar assad will stay in power and that anything that is not under the terms of the national sovereignty and the with the syrian people will be rejected brazil's far right presidential candidate says he will not accept results of the october alike. if he loses former army captain. has been called trump of the tropics for his polarizing remarks on women people of color and the
