this hour. thousands on the streets seen hungary protesting against prime minister viktor all ban and calling a labor reform slave law plus. i'm scott either in bangkok's chinatown the work group of performers is trying to keep the centuries old art form of chinese opera alive their story coming up. a president accused of war crimes has become the first arab leader to visit syrian president bashar assad in damascus since the beginning of the war nearly eight years ago say media co sudan's president omar al bashir expressing his hope that syria will recover its important role in the region as soon as possible syria was expelled from the arab league shortly after war broke out in two thousand nine hundred eleven the assad government has been accused by the u.n. and rights groups of committing multiple war crimes sudan's foreign minister said

president bush's visit shows his country's commitment to resolving crises affecting the reach him. a little bailout from what i said to what the visit reflects the circumstances and crisis experienced by many arab countries and our commitment to find new approaches to arab action based on respect for the sovereignty of states no need to fear this in its affairs and is not just a don several our countries have recently indicated they may be willing to normalize relations with the syrian government in early october president assad gave his first interview to a gulf based newspaper since twenty eleven he told the kuwaiti paper that western and arab delegations had already begun work to resume diplomatic and economic ties just a week prior to that bahrain's foreign minister a surprise observers by embracing his syrian counterpart widely down while i'm on the sidelines of the un general assembly in new york and even neighboring israel has taken steps towards improving relations with the assad regime is kinetic

crossing in the occupied golan heights was possibly reopened in mid october under russian military supervision jordan also reopened the crossing into syria that say months back turkey is the last major backer of the syrian opposition helping them hold a part of northern syria but its foreign minister now says ankara is prepared to engage with damascus if the government held and one free and fair elections over this will be able to walk the eligible ones in syria on all sides of syria including the refugees in my country and neighboring countries and in other countries to resettle in the last seven years and it has to be a very credible one transparent democratic and further elections and then at the end syrian people will decide who is going to rule the country after this election if it is a democratic elections and if it is

a credible one then over that should consider the. me is director of the center for middle east studies at the university of denver he says our camp countries want to curtail iran's influence in syria. well i think they're trying to perhaps woohoo assad away from his alliance with iran. the number one priority for the assad regime today after crushing all opposition to his rule is economic reconstruction the west is not going to invest in that economic reconstruction but there are very wealthy arab states that do have the resources the financial resources and so i suspect part of the agenda here is to see whether they that whether you know bashar al assad can be influenced financially. with reconstruction aid in exchange for weakening his alliance with iran you know

if it wasn't for the wrongs. participation in the horrific war in syria over the last you know seven years bashar al assad would not be alive today he certainly would be in power so you ron has a huge amount of influence i don't think at the end of the day that bashar assad will break his alliance with iran and switch sides but i think what's i think much more fundamental and i think what's uniting bashar al assad with other. arab states in the region is that bashar al assad and other leaders of the arab states in the middle east share a common national security concern and that national security concern is fear of their own populations fear of democracy fear of political change so in that sense they have a very common sort of set of concerns that they that they're trying to fight and push back against meanwhile the e.u. has warned turkey against taking any further action in syria take president bush up

tie that one has threatened to enter the no of entity of mambo which if the u.s. doesn't remove code is fine to take he considers them to be terrorists but they've partnered with the u.s. in the fight against al qaeda foreign policy through frederick. greeny said turkey should not undermine the u.s. led coalition against isis does have a hole it is a nonresident scholar in the middle east program at the khan again endowment for international peace he says the presence of kurdish forces in mondays is just one of the many sticking points in the turkey u.s. relationship. and this really highlights the difficulty of the question that the americans are trying to hold in the north of syria by reopening ties to thirty and this has been something that that has started with the nomination of a new syria and boy in washington who was the former ambassador in on karl who's more that's a closer to the turkish point of view and also the necessity of keeping good ties within fatah with the white the who is perceived or the s.d.f.

that are perceived by washington as the main partner in the struggle against isis and that are supported also by another branch in the american administration so there's an interim american farther off of the negotiation or out of the question but there's also a grander picture that has to do with the global on the standing between washington on cut off on many famous lot of them are have to do with north of syria a lot of them have to do with syria such in front of them have to do with biodata redemptions for example in the in the hours that. we were witnessing distension over many days there were probably truck stations between president trump and president of the down about the expulsion order extradition or for the high level then from the u.s. so everything is now between the country. a kurdish on group has claimed responsibility for a car bomb attack in the northern syrian city of a free in which killed at least eight people the city was under kurdish control

three months since she was killed inside the saudi consulate in istanbul turkey continues to accuse saudi arabia of trying to cover up the crime because of its lack of transparency in the investigation turkey is also frustrated with what it sees as an action on the part of the west many european countries who are promoting the freedom of media for freedom of expression are closing their eyes and this country and the politicians you know you see this statement putting some sanctions on the people who are already in prison who will never be visiting dos countries calls are now growing louder for an international investigation what we have said since the beginning is it's absolutely essential to have a credible investigation and to the punishment of those that were killed turkey has recently said there are discussions about opening an international investigation because a lack of cooperation from saudi arabia is blocking progress present are the one

doesn't know that that does not that he can't do this alone he does need the backing down and the full force of the international arena we do see the west trying not to be in wild with this but as we see that we also see president are the one pushing this i'm not letting it go she's killing sparked international outrage and condemnation but there has been little action against saudi arabia a un investigation would according to experts put more pressure on riyadh but there needs to be international political will. findings of this mission is not binding for both parties so this the shortcoming of this very winding missions are. the need a higher level of cooperation this has this such for cummings has. existed when it comes through the international commission want to enter to myanmar that has been

established by the united nations human rights commission in rome and has refused to enter the country for the investigators a position saudi arabia is likely to take it insists it will handle the case on its soil turkish officials are growing impatient with what they describe as a lack of seriousness on the part of saudi authorities even president pressure tell you border guard has been more outspoken he used to ovoid mentioning muhammad bin sound man by name he has now criticized the saudi crown prince's explanation on a special she's killing and accuse those who took an active part in the murder of being his closest aides. turkey is not softening its stance but it continues to tread carefully to maintain ties with saudi arabia but pursuing an international investigation would hurt that relationship senator al jazeera istanbul osman sirte is the director of the ankara institute and served as media adviser to former turkish prime minister ahmed over to blue he says the foreign minister's comments

are all about keeping up pressure on saudi arabia. tookie. just had two important targets during the process one is just keeping the pressure up momentum is high and india at the same time just keeping the issue isn't a legal thing another political drift between turkey and the saudi arabia but turkey has that you have saturday you know used so many cars on it but it is already exhausted ok just it was given the watch accordions of how mr kushner was killed inside the saudi consulate and that is the whole thing that is just just keeping just making this very clear that who had committed this crime who is responsible from this and the american. in the senate made the decision on that they did the other left thing is just after this linkages prime ministers or president foreign ministers speeches and statements just trying to keep the pressure up you know but at the end of the day if turkey is left alone against old

europe be a turkey probably wouldn't prefer to go alone because it is not so easy for turkey to keep up either the political support from the american congress or don't make an inspiration is special from the european countries it should be done otherwise it would be so difficult for turkey to go after until the bottom. plenty more ahead on this news hour including an al-jazeera investigation finds links between members of a prominent french political party and a far right movement that calls for the expulsion of muslims. hitches its economic fortunes to a giant down that's been more than forty years in the making and english football's two greatest rivals meet in the premier league file be here to tell us what happened when liverpool hosted manchester united. persons of people have braved the cold to protest in hungary capital buter pass
