gratitude for everything you do to keep america safe strong and free. the other reason i'm here today is to personally thank you and every service member throughout this region for the near limitation of the isis territorial caliphate in iraq and in syria. two years ago when i became president there were a very dominant group they were very dominant today they're not so dominant anymore . when the moment i will have the reaction of reynolds in washington d.c. first let's go to iran counters in iraq iraqi capital baghdad so in iran there was meant to be a meeting with iraqi prime minister why didn't happen. well there was disagreement over what the parameters of that meeting should be the americans and the iraqis

spoke to la trobe was supposed to come and congratulate the troops give them a christmas message and then meet twitter prime minister abdullah but that didn't happen and the reason it didn't happen is because they couldn't agree on what to talk about now i have been speaking before i even knew the president on trumpet was going to visit iraq with iraqis about the u.s. policy there is a lot of confusion in iraq about what the u.s. policy actually means they were very surprised as were the rest of the world when the u.s. president donald trump decided to pull two thousand troops out of syria there were even more surprised when he decided to pull seventy seven thousand troops out of the full team thousand that they have in afghanistan and this was a very big problem for the iraqis because they simply don't understand what the u.s. president is doing reading between the lines i have to say that this is what people

military are let's find out less and political analysts have been telling me throughout the day reading between the lines they feel that the u.s. president has a policy towards the region that is much more domestic focused i.e. pulling troops out of unpopular wars within the u. s. than it has to do with anything that is of benefit of benefit to the iraqis so they simply don't understand we don't know why this meeting didn't happen however the iraqi prime minister has been invited to washington d.c. perhaps we'll get some but we'll get some clarity when that happens i won't right now the iraqis are very confused but they are happy that the u.s. president said that five thousand two hundred troops that we have right now in iraq will remain and how significant is it for about the u.s. troops are staying there. it's

a very interesting question and it's much more significance in iraq east that the u.s. troops remained in syria because that is an active conflict i still would defeated a year ago with this port of the u.s. air strikes but it was the iraqis that did much of the all the ground fighting that has been the kind of levels of violence absolutely here in baghdad that we've seen in the last few years iraqis are taking their own checkpoints they are taking out last will. there are still pockets of our suffices in the countryside but something the iraqis say that they can deal with what they're much more concerned about is syria and they are worried that the iraqi president sorry the american president has withdrawn his troops in syria which we may allow myself isis to gather in significant numbers that like i say every iraqi person i've spoken to that has an interest in this when there are political little tree or financial is very

concerned about what the u.s. president is doing and there's just a lot of confusion right now in iran count thank you very much indeed. all that rob reynolds joins us live now from washington d.c. reports are actually going back home to a transparent visit. well lauren i think that the visit will quell some of the criticism that president donald trump has been experiencing from several quarters about his long period of time in office without visiting any of the u.s. troops in conflict regions he's been in office for more than twenty three months now and this of course as we know is his first visit certainly the troops seem to appreciate seeing their commander in chief and he got a warm welcome there and he also seemed to be intent on scoring some political

points as we heard in the excerpt from his remarks that we played earlier in the broadcast saying that when he came into office eisel was dominant force and now they have been reduced to. practically nothing so that certainly is is something to the president's benefit politically but there's also still a lot of confusion and concern in this country as well as in the middle east and in iraq as the iran was discussing about the policy towards syria and the abrupt pullout of announcement of the pullout of troops from syria the defense secretary james mattis resigned in protest there was intense criticism from some of the republicans who are normally allied with the president including. you know close allies of his as and of course many democrats also criticized that

decision so there is still that is that remains a major issue and the. way in which the pullout is conducted and the consequences of the pullout from syria are going to be very important programs thank you very much indeed. well for complex to iraq he was given an update on the operations of troops based in quetta to america christmas on behalf of the seven thousand men and women that. are based here in doha counter and the mission continues we are working in twenty four seven three sixty five on providing global strike intelligence surveillance reconnaissance airlift and cargo and tanker operations including defense of space control as well across the entirety of centcom keeps us busy but we are one of the strategic locations that gives afghanistan iraq and syria every day in the airmen are proud to do so we also

jointly operate here with soldiers sailors marines and twenty coalition partners as part of the chaotic for communicant role so it's a fascinating operation but we have taken the time to. wish spec to you in the people united states so how are they doing it cutter how are they doing getting together with saudi arabia and u.a.e. and what's what's the latest word you probably know better than anybody but maybe i should be asking to that question how are they doing getting together you see anything any signs of hope well sir i will say that from within cutter as a host they're fantastic they take good care of us the burden share with us they're helping us to improve our infrastructure and really make this kind of a crown jewel of a base. you know we don't track in a certainly the political followings of saudi arabian u.a.e.

with regards to cutter but i will tell you they're fantastic hosts they're they're great to us and it's a it's a it's a fascinating place to work in operate from. now russia has accused is ready jets are endangering civilian flights while watching what it called a provocative raid syria's capital russia's defense ministry says six israeli f. sixteen jets launched airstrikes at the moment when two civilian airliners were preparing to land in damascus and beirut syrian air defense forces shot down fourteen of the sixteen precision guided bombs on the remaining two hit a military depo injuring three soldiers israel says its own defense system intercepted and anti aircraft missile fired from syria sunday's long awaited presidential election in the democratic republic of congo has been postponed in some parts of the country sparking concern about an upsurge in opposition protests the vote is delayed in beni and tembo which are dealing with an ebola outbreak and

clear who is behind them the government blames a rebel group called the i.d.f. . you've heard of outbreak started in august and spread to the area around benny more than three hundred people have died. the campaign rallies were allowed to take place there. and it's opposition candidate martin fraley through the biggest crowds i think this is the people that need change in this country most because they've been under walls rules of war atrocities the must killing ceased to kids and also want their votes convince a lot in this country that was want to change. there are about one point two million voters in the regions that will be excluded many of them support fire leave congress catholic church which has played a key role in campaigning for democracy they question the decision. this is.
