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 will unilaterally cells first but the u.s. position here at the u.n. general assembly was consistent might compare nikki haley both saying that maximum pressure still needs to be applied on north korea before a new craze ation 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 while syria's foreign minister when he also took to the stage at the u.n. and he claimed his country is doing all it can to facilitate the return of those

who've had to leave. some western countries in line with a dishonest behavior since the start of the war in syria continue to prevent the return of refugees they spreading irrational fees among refugees they're politicizing what should be a purely humanitarian issue using refugees as a bargaining chip to serve their political agenda. chris is the director of the council for arab british understanding he says syria takes from the speech before. it was a very well rehearsed playbook of all the syrian regime narratives that actually could exactly what he said last year you could have almost displayed that speech to the u.n. general assembly to be honest it was about you know the regime is winning it's about to get must control over and borders that all from forces must leave except for etc now i think if you're a syrian. living in hope that somehow there's going to be some sort of political

opening of one of europe's largest mosques it's day two of his first state visit to germany since becoming president in twenty fourteen. with the german chancellor angela merkel on friday to agree to work to mend the relationship that's been strained in recent years has this update from cologne. this has been a state visit unlike any other undertaken it has seemed at times grudgingly almost by both sides an invitation extended by the german government to president to one perhaps realizing that these two countries with such important common interests between them had let 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 key trading partners while turkey and president are one battle through the worst economic crisis in
9:13 pm
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 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

9:21 pm
possible if it can conclude that palestine meets the international law test to full 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. 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.

korea's foreign minister has accused the u.s. of deepening mistrust between their countries through sanctions home made the comments during his address to the united nations general assembly he says it's unrealistic for washington to expect to denuclearize while sanctions are in place turkey's president has called for a united front against racism and says it's time to set the clash of ideas aside. made the comments of the opening of one of europe's largest mosques in the german city of cologne he's on a two day visit to germany his first since becoming president and twenty fourteen for more on his trip let's speak to a cigar. he's a fellow at the berlin institute for integration and migration research thanks very much for speaking to us so what was this visit by or to want to germany prompted by necessity or was it by choice. well i do think that he was invited because.
9:32 pm
they have trait traits and you know she said negotiations going on and of course after their last years. blame games between germany and turkey in the context of the immigration the it's time to somehow you can side relations so i think both sides they're interested in some ground there so i'm good relations with turkey for germany to to manage the refugee crisis well firstly their point because tokes like german turks are the most important the biggest number. in germany so for them this is a crucial crucial issue and it's also there are voters in germany as well as in turkey. and then where the next point of course your rhetoric is a large part of them are muslims so the point of you know islam full be our or anti
9:33 pm
muslim racism is very important for politics as well as they must the mobilization the necessary actions in germany we saw protests in cologne where i know one was some against some of his policies and there were a group of protesters that came out against a protesting against the the opening of the mosque in cologne what do you make of these protests and how much power or or do they embolden the far right in germany. well. this time i would say they're not that much involved in the far right because previously we saw supporters of everyone complaining or rallying in germany and then the german far right ultimate support for germany was claiming that those people are not willing to integrate into germany and they are none democratic german to reach support an anti democratic leader president adams but this time we
9:34 pm
see that those people lost to protest against. president ad one which somehow breaks the assumption that those people are fleeing by a culture not capable of being democratic going to supporting democratic civil values so i don't think that this time it is a german a if the party has. as it likes let's say. it's not is not involvement but the fact is that there has been a rise of islam a phobia in germany and a rise of islamophobia crimes but what is the german government doing to combat this well. on the turkish side we see that. like the turkish farai and in turkey as well as in germany they fear if they feel that german authorities block their celebration this is you know
9:35 pm
a highly symbolic value to them and we see that german politics suffered a large with trying to politically integrate those german turkish voters recently saw that many out there. in the past one thousand for the social democratic party in germany and now are they are switching to the conservative party so. it's. kind of the litmus test we face right now and. i know the magical has to find a way to somehow adjust those people's interest without losing touch with their major major terror in society ok we thank you very much for speaking to us from berlin welcome now major conflict across the world are being discussed on the sidelines of the un general assembly it's an opportunity for non governmental organizations to bring a global focus to humanitarian crises but often that the sky high like the
9:36 pm
disconnect between those in power and those who are suffering the most mike hanna reports from the united nations. it's a week in which the noise of protesters has lost to the roar of presidential convoys to what from the united nations across the road this is the closest most world leaders come to the concert of such incidents in manhattan and around the globe. sometimes lost amidst the noise of debate grand statement within the general assembly the suffering taking place in so many regions outside iraq and the fact that in the past eight years the number of major violent conflicts has tripled. the consequences of this failure in international arbitration felt most keenly by the funder bull the defenseless and in many cases the children the suffering intensifies each year the international committee of the red cross has released statistics about the number of children who annually go missing in conflict in two
9:37 pm
thousand and thirteen that number was put at nearly six thousand it's increased substantially each general assembly gathering rising to more than fifteen thousand in two thousand and seventy but there is always a gap between the diplomatic discourse on the situation and the situation itself what we see indeed is when we are in the field that we see a lot of people suffering and we see an enormous amount of this struction and disruption of lives and livelihoods the full extent of the human suffering would be acknowledged probably political decisions would have would be taken other. than other scale and with another seriousness while some leaders brush aside global concerns in the name of national self interest to use our there are others that insists these issues special be emplaced and addressed funeral through
