7:00 am
it is not easy it is not easy to just close the case and go business as usual because what's happened is a very extraordinary case happening first of all for turkey the turkish government is being targeted with this because did this so the consulate in istanbul is in turkey saudi and turkey cannot just. cannot really just let me just jump in there let me just tell you that in this is a cover up and the cover up or do you think that what the u.s. is doing and everybody all the parties involved in all the different countries involved is the potential for a cover up or is it a cover up look for ten days. the united states president waited to give a reaction to what happened to the poor probably he was already briefed about what's happening in stumble and who's mr kushner his daughters and you know american citizen he is writing down for washington post hundreds of articles are being published in ten days they waited when they waited for what and that's why
7:01 am
there's a question mark about it but because of the you know very huge reaction against what's happening here about the diplomatic tradition about the turkey's sovereignity and that's why it won't be easy to cover it and you're shaking your head best you're shaking your head no joins what do you think of what i understand . oh no. the gentleman from makes a very interesting argument though i would disagree with him while saying that you want to look at this interim situation in the within the matter of the last few days or years of the trump administration it's important very important to look at the genesis of the relationship as a pertains to this particular situation and if you look at the u.s. side a relationship or a larger all the other large relationship in the middle east. there is easy to develop an obsession with president trump in his actions which you also have to look at historical actions congress has taken steps to act no matter what
7:02 am
a commander in chief or president has chosen to do as a pertains to a situation like this if you look at the situation in terms of apartheid in south africa it was congress who acted outside of the wishes a ronald reagan to implement sanctions on the south african government if you look at what congress did in relationship to the development of iran's nuclear program it was congress who implemented saying sions despite what president obama wanted or did not want to do and no matter what president trample his administration decides to do and this event congress is going to act both republicans and democrats have already said that so i think if you look at the situation for there was going to be pressure on the saudi government and with that pressure i do believe there will be concessions will they be immediate no should they be immediate absolutely this is a tragedy which has taken place the tragic killing took place within a consulate this is awful and i do think at the end of the day you will have forces
7:03 am
and powers outside of the president and the administration will be demanding accountability and information journalism isn't going to stay with you for a second let's talk about the well called in the room if the saudis come out and say this was rogue intelligence agents the operation the royal family that the leadership simply didn't know about is that going to be. to somebody like the washington post who have put almost all of their resources into covering the disappearance of their own journalists will they believe something like that and will they continue to put pressure on domestic american politicians to get to the truth of the matter i think at the end of the day just won't be american politicians who will be encouraged to act quite frankly a number of them don't need the motivation and there are people within congress in the senate who are outraged by what taken place and they've been very vocal about that but more than that i would imagine that you also have politicians within the
7:04 am
european union who will be demanding action and demanding a response that is proportional to what actually has taken place here so i don't think it just falls on the american government though there is a responsibility that must be put forth and also it is incumbent on many countries within the european union and the international community to really step up and call for accountability and to punish those persons who took place in this tragic killing someone let me bring you in the head what we're seeing is a situation develop plenty of diplomatic activity as we've already said but if a narrative developing that the saudis may well blame rogue intelligence elements. the turks are going to have to go along with that as well as the u.s. if that becomes the narrative that the saudis want to put out there is it therefore a cover up or is it the full away of all policies saving face and being
7:05 am
able to go about business is knowable. well given this given the given the circumstances and the nature of the crime that has happened it is really hard for us to claim whether there is a cover up in this situation or the. parties are seeking and accountability genuinely but the thing is that if if the parties are to find enough grant to agree on and seek accountability that it would be best for all the parties to evade the immunity of the consular stuff and then the turkish authorities would be able to exercise their jurisdiction for the perpetrators who commit those crimes and alternatively. the saudi arabia can also already patridge its consular stuff and prosecute them when they are the mystic courts but in either way either the turkish authorities prosecute them or they go without any. proper jurisdiction the consular stuff who will try to return their work back will not be practically
7:06 am
able to engage in an effective diplomacy to talk show that it is given the circumstances of the situation we are coming towards the end of the show i would like to ask each of you a quick question you have thirty seconds to say each of you the question is very simple start with her first what needs to come out in order for the world to draw a line under this affair both diplomatically and with the truth being at the center of it what needs to come out what would you like to see just a very quick honest. it is very open the you know the it is a diplomatic mission and the country who is owning the diplomatic mission is the responsible for what has happened the saudis are telling that they are admitting of confirming the murder alluded they cannot know did or cannot confirm if they can confess it what happened first of all the fifteen guards whether they are disposable owner should be decided and the very important point is who is behind
7:07 am
this order to kill mr kushat you should be find out this is very important to you joe johns in washington d.c. what would you like to say what would you like to see come out what's credible enough for you you need a well you need a transparent independent credible investigation into exactly what happened and who is responsible it's obvious that the saudis cannot investigate themselves so you do need a coalition to participate in a transparent investigation to get to the bottom of what actually happened and just one quick point regarding the role killers statement i think because that was leaked out that was something about probably tested by the saudis and you can just tell by the response of the domestic and international community that explanation of probably not going to work so i think the saudis will be left with no choice but in the end to allow an investigation that is outside of their control to happen to get to the bottom of what actually took place to selma and stumble very quickly
7:08 am
what can international law do to get a credible to their cause. just very quickly. well the problem the problem with so many people are receiving diplomatic gun consular privileges and immunities and there is a likelihood that a lot of people are have the opportunity to abuse their privileges and immunities and saw the international community should rethink and rethink about changing the commission in the way that the sending state should not have the full authority to either give the consent for a genius to get in or not so there will be enough if there will be enough basis to make this change maybe the international community should change the. way of protecting the diplomatic and consular stuff and providing more accountability for the victims to all of our guests i want to thank you also insert john h. jones and so when action game thank you two for watching you can see the program
