potential exposure to a bowl of ours. the vaccine vaccines really seems to work the problem is it's challenging to access people because of you believe your area and it's hard to ensure that people who have had a possibly explore the worst actually know that. only for safety reasons and borders here are porous these roads like this one in south sudan lead across sovereign frontiers and as people travel they give it the ability to travel with them. becomes something difficult that's good enough up to now you don't have any. kissel few boileau even. states but you felt all. that entity to be very challenging to people who comes through diplomas borders as the death toll mounts in the d.r. the neighboring countries are watching closely the start al-jazeera north and south korean troops have withdrawn from eleven guard posts on the edges of the

i mean there's you know got american forces in south korean forces and so obvious to the south and so what the current government is looking to do is sort of continue to expand the sort of demilitarized space to sort of you know the mining has been mentioned removing barbed wire the no fly zone over the demilitarized zone has been expanded but a lot of that sort of depends on how these sort of small steps go the big really big thing would be if the two sides could actually start would draw forward based. forces right because the north korean artillery on the south koreans are really worried that if there's a war the north koreans would shell soul which is very close to the d.m.z. so that's really the big one but that's probably a couple years away representatives from the polish government are holding a joint to march with far right groups to celebrate the country's independence the procession marks the first time polish officials will attend the so-called independence march in the past this event has featured racist anti immigrant homophobic white supremacist slogans and wednesday the mayor of wolf said he would ban them off for security reasons however president on they do the confirmed to the

responsibility for it also until we actually find out the extent of the problem the information that's out there at the moment is so miniscule that research urgently needs to happen before they start actually. the couple is so serious that they've paid new zealand's government hundreds of thousands of dollars but this second time dive support ship having sailed it back to australia they next plan to convert it into a vessel that can sit over the wrecks of others sending divers down to investigate how damaged they are and experiment with ways to reserve them this ship is forty years old but it could almost have been purpose built for this task it already has what's known as a diving bell essentially a platform that can take a quick month's divers on the air that they need to the bottom of the sea and if any of those divers get into trouble well the ship already has a decompression chamber on board that could save the divers life the ship also has

memories of world war one do live on in france hundreds of thousands of soldiers lost their lives during one of the history's one of history's bloodiest battles to reports from france. it was the most intense artillery barrage the world had ever witnessed after three hundred days a great longest battle three hundred thousand soldiers both french and german had sacrificed their lives in the trenches around that down when the guns fell silent the front line was back where it started there's a damn a moral museum is still teaching the futility of war to each new generation. the displays are graphic and sobering but as world leaders gather in paris to mark the hundredth anniversary of the great war's end has anything really changed or knows will be a no here we have today an economic and political environment that is not very

different from a century ago that's why our mission is so important we must convey this memory to the young generation that will all this group of germans schoolchildren visiting the memorial are exposed every day to equally horrific images of conflict broadcast on television news from syria and yemen but they were still moved by the suffering here no one suggests that. this was the been really devastating for the soldiers to find to pour money months in the middle of these woods the village of flurry once stood simple stone markers show the location of it shops and houses. jump yeah is the mayor of the village that no longer exists in the middle of the frontline it exchanged hands sixteen times between the french and german forces. the more the community i am a custodian of memory and is to read for the young generation zimmer's know was

that in display there was a village with peaceful working people running through the destructive fully afford these villages were completely destroyed my will is to show you all the lives that was here and to say be careful never ghana why more. these days it's hard to imagine the sheer scale of the terror that was unleashed on the hills above. but the last entry in a war diary by a french soldier gives you some impression he wrote that crazy to do what they're doing now what a bloodbath what horrible sights what a slaughter hell cannot be as hideous as this people are insane. it was here president francois mitterrand chancellor helmut kohl held hands in a historic act of reconciliation and friendship between france and germany the tide of warfare may have moved to different shows but is still shows no sign of turning . david chase to al-jazeera. and here is

this is al jazeera these are the headlines the french president emmanuel micron as you just saw has led tributes to the millions of servicemen and civilians who died in world war one leaders from seventy countries are in paris for the one hundredth anniversary of the end of the conflict around twenty million people lost their lives france the epicenter off that first global conflict. citizens aristocracies simple people all colors fighting next to each other with heroes during those four years europe nearly killed itself there in a merciless struggle and confrontation which drew and all who fought in it no matter what their nationality was. another news at least sixty one people have been killed as fighting intensifies in the yemeni port city of data between forces backed by the saddam iraq the coalition and the hutu rebels aid groups say the humanitarian crisis is getting dire as many caught in the conflict lack access to

california the death toll has doubled to at least twenty five people killed as the wildfires continue to burn across the state two hundred thousand people have been forced to leave their homes and the coastal community of malibu has now been evacuated as well but with the news hour in about twenty five minutes time right now though and on to zero inside story. the president of turkey has shared with several world leaders audio recordings of the moment john was to mock ashanti was murdered the game it appears to pressure saudi arabia into revealing who ordered the killing so will this tactic work this is inside story.

hello and welcome to the program i'm richelle carey turkish president. continues to put the pressure on saudi arabia to reveal who ordered the murder of journalist. as his country has shared audio recordings of the last moments with the u.s. germany france and the united kingdom the leaders of those countries are in france to mark the one hundredth anniversary of the end of the first world war or to discuss the issue with u.s. president on saturday and paris and also met french president manuel macron and agreed on a number of issues related to the case they said saudi arabia needs to shed more light on the murder and the case should not destabilize the region or one has previously said he believes the order to kill the journalist came from the highest

levels of the saudi government. these repeated that we have shared the recordings with saudi arabia the americans the british the germans with everyone they've listened to the conversations on those recordings they know what's been said there's no point in distorting this fact among the fifteen suspects they know who the murderer is all murderers are and saudi arabia can bring old this to light by making those fifteen suspects speak. let's introduce the panel now and joining us from istanbul matthew bryza former white house official now a non resident senior fellow at the atlantic council here in doha to china as a car a assistant professor of politics at the gulf study center at qatar university and also in istanbul salvator an international strategist and financial security expert and welcome to all of you appreciate it. i want to start with you do you think that

saudi arabia could have or should have anticipated the what was happening inside that consulate was being recorded. well i think this is a wrong million tons of question or a couple of million dollar question i have no idea if they look down to spade it or who in the in the the government of saudi arabia is actually responsible in this horrible massacre or slain a from the know some post in man. but i think the the very incident is making us to to question the moral let's say in the international system or the international institutions rule low human right isn't all the other things that we stand for or advocate for years and years are still in action or are still ballots i

think this is a very historic moment as the. centennial gathering of the world the first world war in paris all the heads of the nation states should be questioning where the international system is going to are and on what grounds they will be supporting or at kading the norms and rules of the game it is certainly. relentlessly horrifically is. a government that is disregarding or breaching those rules and international community as well as the political establishment the fulda countries which all the members of the international committee has shown that they are serious about it and saudi arabia has to respect to those values ok touch on a lot of things that we're going to be discussing it's not i want to put that to

you that the idea that there was a recording or something happening and that consulate and that turkey has a recording of it do you think saudi arabia even across their minds that what was happening inside that consulate was being recorded. and well i mean i assume that the if this is something that the sometimes in the diplomatic circles everybody was suspicious about that not every consulate an embassy in the war is safe. being. recorded of everything that is going on i mean we had a lot of things about the spanish between russia and you have to say during the cold war and all the embassies some of course this is something that maybe they were not very careful in checking what they were doing inside the consulate or they were not even thinking that this could have been possible impunity in which the i mean there were there were thinking about that they were would be able to get rid of this problem without any major publicity of this fact gives you an idea that

they were really sure that nobody would pay attention to this or would be a mine or a minority thing that nobody will really be attention to the fact that mohammed salma was surprise i mean this is something that he was allegedly. i literally it was said by my mom i mean some of the he was surprised of the impact overproduce of this case the word means that they were not even thinking that this case where it whoever decided to do it. were thinking in the could be. an advertisement. taken into into the news papers more than one month and creating so much where progressions that even maybe. i mean you have to say would do something. regarding this matthew what do you make of the timing.

now handing over these tapes we've been hearing about these tapes for quite some time but he's just now handing this over to the other countries that are concerned what do you make of the timing and how he's been playing this sure well start with how he's been handling it as a whole i think he's been handling it with great diplomatic. skill you know i think that of course king solomon and the president trump as well would have preferred that the whole issue be swept under the rug but by allowing this drip drip of information over the course of the past few weeks he president out of one has made it impossible in fact he's kept the pressure on but he has done it in a way that didn't directly accuse mahomedan son and he was careful to maintain respectful good relationship with king solomon so i think he's preserved turkey's relations with saudi arabia strained though they've been for a while and he's also shown president trump he's someone to be dealt with but also he's not reckless and he didn't also make life too difficult for been someone why

why the timing now i think it's because he as you said a show everybody's known about this tape for some time and he confirmed it yesterday saturday just before he flew to paris i think he looks at this meeting in paris as sort of a grand moment on the international calendar i mean he's there as we know with so many heads of state of course including president trump president mccrone chancellor merkel and this was his his moment to shine and dial up the pressure i would presume there's more information even beyond this but this was a major salvo at really you know the biggest international diplomatic event on the near term calendar and when you say that you anticipate that there is more there are actually reports that a turkish newspaper may actually post some of these recordings we don't actually know how much if something like that were to happen matthew people are able actually able to hear something like this for themselves is it possible that

that could even ratchet up the pressure even more yet to show i think that's the whole idea right i mean i think the turkish government and president are to one are trying to keep as much information in reserve and not you know not not divulge too much because it actually is a violation of the geneva convention to bug a consulate. or an embassy of course in my diplomatic career twenty three years we always assumed at every moment all of our facilities were bugged and there are secure places to go to have a conversation so but you don't want to admit if you're the turkish government that you may have been bugging the consulate so that's another reason why there's been just a drip drip drip of information however if there's no movement on a just prosecution of the eighteen and if it appears that the crown prince is going to escape any culpability i would guess the direct turkish side would decide we better divulge even more information ok so let's talk about that about this tactic salvo that you know has been you know pacing this and releasing things that at

a certain time does he run the risk of dragging in this out too long to where there is no momentum to actually get to the bottom of what happened to jamal khashoggi could he could he plays and the wrong way and make this last too long. well i don't think this. fortunate incident the coach of just merger is way that. leveraging the whole issue in order to gain some you know. whatever because turkey you know think about that why turkey and mr add on is pushing the western capitals to acknowledge that there is a while ation to me and the call masham wouldn't be so over the lens of turkey in a costly building and this is done not. you know the true legitimate

way with doing political action this isn't nation state under state way of. treating political decisions so what really took is trying to pursue that we need to. deal with only legitimate alternative. nation states and this is also implicitly sending the message to the united states when defining the middle east foreign political decisions they have to behave or day have to choose their contour parts not from terrorist organizations or from chua's a states like saager arabia using some. ways that it is. against the rule of law and because it is jeopardizing the very stability of the

region this is already very prone to war region of middle east already doing a lot of problems by itself cannot live along with that kind of a leadership with unfortunately the crown prince. solomon is showing us every day starting from two thousand and seventeen ok just through just one. starting from starting from two thousand and seventeen crown prince song month including the united arab emirates you know they showed a very you know sort of discipline this stability of the region and you know taking back to this recordings you know we don't know yet how this recording says been. supply to you know. we cannot be sure that

hundred percent that he has been updated by itself maybe it has been given by an inside source who cannot there to. you know to accept those horrific events maybe happening in front of his eyes or just ok so we don't know yet the details about it ok so i mean i want to bring into the conversation which ana how key is the relationship between donald trump and other wine to getting to the bottom of this in a public way what what what at stake for how best to interact with each other. well actually i'm in the relation between both it's very important i mean that between the two countries it's very important and we shouldn't forget that target is part of nato and of course. the kind of deal with turkey like what he has dealing with other countries in the middle east so and the way i mean the way this

situation has been gone in the last year with the sanctions imposed by united states against turkey with four different issues before this negotiation to liberate the us for a few weeks ago in the middle of all this crisis of i mean that the way in which trump on the ground or the way in which erdogan actually is dealing with the information provided to the american government has been taken with a lot of color shows. because both can see about the relation it's sort of basic and cannot rely only on the case of how successful how so she cannot destroy this so there's a religion that turkey and united states have been out in since long time ago because it is fundamental for both or for turkey in terms of media very honest replies said to the outset that are on for the night they said to still count with more nine one star that you got in the region you know this is cannot loose turkey

because you don't have many other regional allies that they can rely upon in case of they need the meeting there in their arrangement or more. presence in the whole regions so. if i can add something at the time in the question that you also might make colleague i think is the fact that the decision of releasing this information on actually what is said that. gave there they tape or they have recording to trump after. the midterm election i think it has something to do with. the way in which. terms of i will use him. the release of information i think it's not from you know much more we care or supervision than done before in terms of. what. we want to do or how to do we would solve the so now that parliament calm greely. excited more brits are on the presidency to take some action against saudi

arabia given this information to from the unless you mentioned before maybe releasing some of the record in the press with different people inclined more balance the the time the balance on the side of the sanction if the people the public opinion start to listen. kate let me get in for just a moment to bring matthew into the conversation so to the point yano is making obviously the democrats did very well in the house and going forward and donald trump's world is going to look a little different starting in january and there have been a lot of democrats that have been very vocal about the u.s. relationship with saudi arabia but they're not necessarily all of one mind just like the republicans are not all of one mind but what do you think that this. this new congress what role can they or will they play do you think in reshaping the relationship between the united states and saudi arabia. well the house of

representatives has very little influence in foreign policy under the us constitution it is the president and the executive branch that have the lead in foreign policy formulation and the senate does have the right to confirm appointments high level appointments ambassadors and to confirm treaties but really it's the president who is by far the most powerful so what can the house of representatives do well the house of representatives can make it difficult for president trump to acquire funding for certain international policies he might want to pursue but that's not going to be necessarily so relevant in the case. because that would mean you know the u.s. would some the house would have to do something radical like cut off all economic ties with saudi arabia that's very difficult to do what it can do though is call hearings so compel members of the trump administration to testify in public hearings and then subpoena documents so that under the force of law the documents

must be shown and if they're highly classified or classified then they can be shown in a classified setting in private to the committee so really what the house of representatives can do is shame president trump's administration for not pursuing justice in the case of jamal khashoggi and expose more details to the public but again its power is quite circumscribed and silva so it's we started off the program talking about and one is handed over these recordings to germany u.k. u.s. and france. which of those countries do you anticipate. having a really strong position to continue to publicly push for answers on what happened out of those countries i just said do they all need to be on the same page well saugor be as the main oil suppliers to international comic system

is crucial for everybody and on top of that of course germany u.k. and france ok janelle you of course united states is selling syria's size of arms to saudi arabia so this is economy an energy based thought ice is absolutely very making the issue hectic hectic for everybody and also for turkey that's why turkey is not pushing very explicitly very strongly against is. against to solder mbia because. turkey trying to to manage or balance all this different aspects of this problem including not to jeopardize including not to jeopardizing the issues about energy transfer is a source of for it but the problem here is the crown prince mohammed sol mung i'm

not mistaken his name i think he is not. obviously a good choice night or full saugor obeah nor for the middle east and obviously not for the global stability so he should be removed i mean in the minds of. turkish foreign policy at the moment and in the mind of mr abdullah and i i'm not of course one hundred percent sure about it but obviously he want him to be. remove from the government. because he is a young person to thirty three or thirty four over the next forty years he will be the one who is going to be defining the various the ability or on stability of the region so so far he showed a very very negative performance of this ok which i want to put that question to

you what does accountability actually look like if if the international community and the public discussion about what happened to jamal khashoggi if it keeps happening if it keeps moving forward what does accountability actually look like do you think that there would be any actually not just talk real pressure about about removing the the crown prince. well there is this you could to say i certainly agree with my colleague that the man is pushing for and not to harm south korea but to harm. himself and maybe the only way to push his removal is to release in the final information put him into real trouble but i mean. i mean i don't see my other colleagues said he's a very difficult even for the united states ministration to be forced to take measures against. saudi arabia directly so the only choice is the united nations

security council is taking a final decision or even in the. court to who are entering the in the scene but for that you need. the call the mission of different governments to push for more drastic sanctions altogether and so far we have seen that for instance the united states the best buyer of arms in that whole war is saudi arabia by and half of their guns that the united states is selling war why it also u.k. has a lot of interest to sell arms to saudi arabia the only country that i can really see that can push for more pressure there or turkey or germany or globally speaking but not even jump on or china or even russia are interested in moving forward in that in that sense so international level international community or international by stations i don't think that it's possible to imagine i'd listened

a short time in the short term for us that is there's no way clear indication that mom had been solomon was really behind. this case it would be very indeed be difficult to have something in them so matthew. brought up the fact that obviously saudi arabia by its lots and lots of arms a lot of those weapons had been used in the war and yet in and there has been basically. no accountability for that the final question goes to you what is going to be different this time is the world just going to move on. well i really hope not and i hope you all keep the story alive as well there is some change happening in the u.s. approach to saudi arabia i mean it was just just in the last couple of days the going back to the house of representatives the u.s. house of representatives leadership actually convinced convinced the trump administration to take a significant step not a decisive one with regard to the war in yemen and that is that the u.s. is ending its aerial refueling of the coalition aircraft so the saudi and united

arab emirates aircraft maybe that's a sign that something could change something's beginning but in the grand scheme of things i think president trump really doesn't want mohammed and son to be held accountable a because president trump tends to personalize everything in u.s. foreign policy and he's decided bin solomon is a good guy and you know his son in law jared cushion or has a very strong relationship with been silent but but the second reason is that president trump i think understandably wants the crown prince's deep reform plan vision two thousand and thirty to succeed a saudi arabia that really does eventually reform and gets away from such an over dependency on hydrocarbons and uses its investment to modernize its economy diversify it that's a good thing and that will probably lead to greater stability in the region but that said i think this one is different turkey does have i would guess

significantly more information including probably wiretaps and other things that are that are garnered from international. trade craft and i think i do agree with both of my colleagues that president carter one would be would be happy to see been seldom go so stay tuned it remains to be saying and i appreciate all of the for joining me for this conversation very much very much and matthew prize a car and salvatore thank you. thank you for watching the program is well you can watch it again any time if you go to our website al-jazeera dot com for further discussion at our facebook page that's facebook dot com for slash a.j. and side story or john the conversation on twitter our handle is at a.j. inside story for me richelle carey in the entire teen i for now.

. but the last entry in a war diary by a french soldier gives you some impression he wrote that crazy to do what they're doing now what a bloodbath what horrible sights what a slaughter hell cannot be as hideous as this people are insane. it was here president francois mitterrand chancellor helmut kohl held hands in an historic act of reconciliation and friendship between france and germany the tide of warfare may have moved to different shores but it still shows no sign of turning . david chase to al-jazeera down after initially being criticized for skipping a ceremony at a cemetery on saturday donald trump remembered u.s. soldiers who paid that ultimate sacrifice in american or fridge patriots of world war one embody the timeless virtues of virtue republic's honor and courage

and cruise missiles of an intermediate length that's a treaty signed in one thousand eight hundred seventy s. the treaty that the u.s. says russia's been breaching the u.s. now says it's going to pull out and we understand that president putin wants to start new negotiations on that we've also been hearing from the german chancellor angela merkel because some discussions have been going on here at the war in yemen with the prospect perhaps by the end of the year that as of a cease fire and she referred to the events of the great war and said that there is this carnage going on right now in yemen a conflict that she said does not get enough attention in the world all nicholas about brought is a historian and professor at some point university or explain to us how donald trump's policy in peace promotion differs from his predecessors. what is surprising is the vehemence of tremseh intervention and his policy especially if you compare

a unitary leak in this selfish way that's exactly what you girls widely denounced the nuclear agreement for mad women and you wrote what she does regarding iran and the kind of policies of course it's totally opposed to what the french and the europeans so the world want to prove one to promote. the white house says president trump the turkish president reject time held discussions over the killing of journalist jamal khashoggi they met on the sidelines of the world war one commemorations in paris and also says turkey has shared audio recordings of casualties last moments with several world leaders as more from istanbul. here yet they haven't released exactly whether or what they have agreed upon my m. however from our sources.
