12:01 am
plans to fast track the legislation are rejected. protest his return to the streets of lebanon for a 6 night despite emergency reforms and else by the government. and japan's empress not to hito formally ascends the chrysanthemum throne injuring an ancient ceremony in tokyo. for robert great back to winning ways in the champions league a big. deal in istanbul to get that campari back on track. comes the news our top story the leaders of techie in russia say a deal has been reached for kodesh fighters to move out of syrian border areas the announcement comes as a u.s. brokered truce in the region comes to an end president. says syrian kodesh fighters will move 30 kilometers away from the border in northeast syria within 150 hours
12:02 am
after that time turkey and russia have agreed to conduct joint patrols both leaders say they'll work to ensure the safe return of syrian refugees now in turkey. we are not going to allow any separatist agendas in syria we gave kurdish rebels 120 hours and said they would withdraw they would move 30 kilometers deep we're going to have 10 kilometers deep and russian security will operate there in man beach and teller thought all the y.p. g. will be removed with their arms. to achieve a stable and long term stabilization in syria on the whole in l. view it's only possible while observing sovereignty and territorial integrity of this country it's the very basic position and we discussed it in detail it's necessary for syrian refugees to return to their motherland we will help relieve strain on countries who host them. has been monitoring the talks for us in sochi and sent this report. this means that after the united states
12:03 am
a failed as the minister of defense here described earlier the russians are now in place to make this cease fire work and they will start to morrow at noon on the 23rd of october a military police from the russian side together with syrian border patrol will go into an area which is outside of the turkish operations zone right now in syria it as it is actually a stretch along the syrian turkish border where the russian military police and the syrian border patrol will make sure that the kurdish fighters will be removed and this arms they have 150 hours to do that and if they succeed the minister of foreign affairs here the russian foreign minister sas then the turkish military operation will be finished it will be done if the kurdish fighters are all gone from this area what happens next is that the turkish and the russians will patrol together in a 10 kilometer zone next to the military operations on that turkey has right now so
12:04 am
that's the deal that's been discussed here 7 hours it goes further than that it's not only the military solution but also a political solution both leaders have stressed that the constitutional commission that also was brokered by by president putin very much in these talks that that will be the way to go and the 1st meeting of this commission is on the 30th of october. well some a binge of a joins us live now from market charlie on the turkey syria border and some when we speak about territory in northeast syria shifting hands we have a cease fire now there appears to be some sort of agreement how does this shape the situation on the ground for people. well marian let's quickly recap what has happened in the last few hours the 5 day cease fire that was agreed upon by the u.s. vice president and the turkish president has now effectively lapsed there was
12:05 am
a lot of anticipation of what he will do next but as you saw in that news conference after this agreement that has lapsed between the americans and the turks there is now a new agreement between the turks and the russians and the russians are the new god and those who are saying that they will make sure that they will use all their leverage with the city of fighters these are the kurdish fighters that they will ask them to leave these areas so far we haven't had an official response from these kurdish fighters but indications are that there there have been some statements from low level commanders in the kurdish forces that they want to stay in the areas and put up a fight because they don't want to leave those areas because those areas they call their own and turkey sees them as occupiers of arab majority villages so it is like everything else in syria a complicated situation but out of that news conference there was
12:06 am
a very important piece that came out that for the 1st time in the last 8 years the assad government will again be able to come and patrol the borders along the turkish stretch which hasn't happened before also there are going to be guarantees that areas which are not part of this operation this operation 30 kilometers deep inside syrian territory is going to be carrying is going to continue to be carried out but again not just the united states the united nations is also raising concerns about the displacement of civilians kurds and arabs and because there are fears that this fighting might continue these people in their millions might not be able to go back home thank you very much from the turkey syria border sullivan chev aid joining us there and now with me in the studio is chris doyle he is the director of the council for arab british understanding so is today's agreement a victory of sorts for the president i don't get what he wanted. i think both
12:07 am
presidents are the one present president putin of russia certainly they have an agreement and if it works if the situation on the ground allows it to be implemented wrinkle free then i think it's a huge political victory for them both russia stablished itself as without question the guarantor the predominant power in syria at the expense of the americans and other one will be able to say that he has actually through military action through diplomacy secured this area free of white b.g. kurdish armed group presents and that's a major victory for him that he'll be able to sell to his domestic backyard so for both of them that's very good news also for the syrian regime you know they will have their forces on the border yes they have to swallow a turkish presence which they won't like but remember at the beginning of this
12:08 am
month the syrian regime was out of the start of syria and it mouth is effectively there again and this is so sad has gained something that is not in terms of territory but then following on from that what does this mean for the kurds if these towns in areas that dominated by kurdish populations then effectively live under a 2nd trial the kurds once again are the losers and this is the kurds who have been betrayed by the united states i think that's a common perception it was the decision of president trump to pull out his troops that triggered this whole crisis and they will feel betrayed and you saw images of them throwing things that american troops leaving yesterday and you know russia will be able to say to them well we've saved you from the worst that the turkish army might have thrown at you. you know you we've brokered a deal between you and the syrian authorities so you know we're
12:09 am
a better guarantor we're more trustworthy than united states. if this deal does work it demonstrates that the syrian democratic forces you know while have to kowtow to russia so you know the kurds yes are once again loses as are civilians i mean 80000 children have been part of those who have been displaced in the military fighting that's going on i mean civilians always in the one target of the 8 and a half years of this conflict have you know been on the bottom of everything their interests are lost they've been used to weaponize really in this war we've seen it again over the last few weeks how might this impact it led in some way i think that's a really interesting question because there wasn't much mention of it live to get today but because you know turkey and president over one has appeared to got a lot what he wanted in the area that really mattered to him there is a fear that there is a sell out on it loop and this is happened before particularly over aleppo were
12:10 am
turkey has conceded in one area to gain another and it could well be because turkey doesn't value adlib quite so highly that it could pull out many of its forces that remain there i say forces those syrian groups that it backs and leave it very much to to the russians and the syrian regime to the mass displacement then absolutely and how and where do they go because they won't be able to cross over into turkey so where will those displaced in preserving that buffer zone will may be that buffer zone which we'll see but it will be very tough on them thank you very much crystal appreciate it meanwhile iraq's military is saying that u.s. troops who crossed over from syria don't have permission to stay the soldiers withdrew from the all in syria just before the turkish operation against kurdish fighters began a convoy pass through the sailor border crossing in the northern province of the hook on monday iraqi military are saying u.s.
12:11 am
troops can only remain there in transit. you know the news hour live from london much more still ahead a top u.s. diplomat in ukraine testifies in congress as part of the impeachment inquiry into president donald trump struggling to deal with refugee numbers the water supply to camp in people's near it is to cut is cut to pressure the government into helping. and then later on the 30 man shortlist for football's prestigious awards is announced and there are some high profile emissions. council president saying he will recommend the block grant another brics that extension in order to avoid a no deal scenario the u.k. is due to leave the e.u. on october 31st and prime minister boris johnson had been hoping to have his withdrawal agreement ratified by parliament this week but m.p.'s rejected that
12:12 am
timetable saying it didn't give them enough time to scrutinise the legislation or a challenge reports now from westminster. it is as m.p.'s point out unprecedented for parliament to pass such a large and important bill so quickly yet the governments wanted its withdrawal agreement bill through the commons before the end of the week mr speaker i was incredibly concerned when i was reminded by my wife earlier today that we spent my wife and i spent longer choosing a school for then we have city bay this incredibly cool to kill on tuesday the legislation for leaving the european union was facing 2 hurdles would m.p.'s vote to give it more consideration and would they agree to the government's breakneck timetable the prime minister hopes he could focus minds with this warning if parliament refuses to allow bricks to happen and instead gets its
12:13 am
way and decides to delay everything until january or possibly longer there's a great regret i would say that the book the bill will have to be pulled and we will have to go forward much as the right order may not like it will have to go forward to a general election 1st up would m.p.'s give his withdrawal agreement build their approval in principle so the guys have it the ayes have it m.p.'s gave it a nod through to a 2nd reading a crucial victory for the prime minister the 1st time in this tortured saga that parliament has given any breaks a deal any kind of approval but glory was short lived next up was the vote on the timetable for. the guys to the right 308 it's no use to the last 322 so the know who's having the nose have it once again m.p.'s have slammed the brakes on brakes it's tonight's the house has refused to be bounced into debating
12:14 am
a hugely significant piece of legislation in just 2 days with barely any notice and an analysis of the. impact of this bill the prime minister is the also of his own misfortune jeremy corbyn offered to work together to find a mutually agreeable timetable for us johnson responded by saying he was putting the bill on hold for now his do or die dreams of leaving the e.u. on october 31st look to have been dealt a mortal blow so what i was next depends on the e.u. it's been considering that letter boris johnson was obliged by parliament to write last saturday requesting a break said extension if it grants a long 1 january or further then as we've just heard from the prime minister he is going to try pushing for a general election if we get something shorter or more flexible then that suggests that the e.u. like boris johnson just wants to get the brakes it done will reach alan's
12:15 am
al-jazeera london. an art scene joins us live now from westminster lars who won tonight. well certainly the conservatives are trying to suggest that they did for the reason that rory gave in that report the 1st time that parliament's back to breaks a deal but in a sense that in itself is slightly misleading because a number of opposition labor m.p.'s vote sees for the day that their deal along with all the conservatives only because they wanted to try to change an amended its further down the line and said that they wouldn't vote for a scene in future and so even though boris johnson won by 30 tonight that only means that needs 15 m.p.'s a change their mind further on and then he would have lost and so in that sense some commentators suggesting that this would have been the biggest margin of victory he's he's ever likely to get but certainly the i think the headline of the night is in that he actually won that but that he has now totally lost control of
12:16 am
the timetable since he announced. that votes that he was going to pause talks in parliament serve a brick sits on wednesday and thursday the only sitting days in parliament this week they're going to be back to discussing the queen's speech all the legislation to do with domestic things which are nothing to do with brics it then after that there's only 4 days until these hello dates of october 31st next week when it was supposed to be done and so it is now impossible for bret's it to happen under that timetable really the boris johnson set is still buy and so on that level alone it has been a night of some defeat for the conservative government and it feels like boris johnson really threw the ball into brussels court saying he will discuss the situation with is a part as many have council president donald saying that he will recommend that britain is granted another breaks the extension why is the length of that extension so important here. remember the only important thing for the european union is to
12:17 am
avoid a no deal bricks it's ok and so if boris johnson goes to speaking as he probably is tonight on the phone say european leaders saying look just give me. a week just make it maybe november the 7th or something like that and a guarantee you'll get it through by then if he doesn't get it through for the reasons i was explaining before and the deal collapses and the european only gave him a say a week or something as an extension then you're back into no deal territory because there's no deal to agreement and that's the thing the european union wants a void and so if only for that reason alone it makes sense for the european union to say they already have a letter from boris johnson member he had to censor them kicking and screaming agreeing to this extension to the end of january that amount of time allows for the whole thing to shake down a bit more successfully whether or not boris johnson gets the deal through some point whether there has to be a general election as rory was talking about another report it gives a little bit more room to try to get a bit more clarity from the british side in savoy no deal that's the main
12:18 am
preoccupation from the european side thank you lawrence helping us understand another busy night at westminster rightly on our top us diplomat in ukraine has been testifying in congress as part of the impeachment inquiry into president donald trump democrats leading the closed door depositions a william taylor has provided a cleric out of the president pressuring ukraine to investigate a political rival while withholding military assistance i do castro has more now from washington. did president donald trump have corrupt intent when he pressured ukraine to open investigations into his political opponents this man may know the answer william taylor is the acting u.s. ambassador to ukraine his closed door testimony given in defiance of a white house order to ignore the impeachment inquiry make it to the heart of trump's reasoning it was taylor who reminded state department colleagues last month
12:19 am
that ukraine did not want to be an instrument in washington domestic reelection politics he texted i think it's crazy to withhold security assistance for help with a political campaign democrats a tuesday taylor has been connecting the dots of a clear quid pro quo in my 10 short months in congress it's not even noon and this is the my most disturbing day in congress so far polling shows a growing number of americans believe trump should be impeached and removed from office for the 1st time that number has reached 50 percent the white house has struggled to articulate a clear response last week trump's acting chief of staff confessed to u.s. security aid to ukraine was in part conditioned on ukraine opening an investigation into democrats then he took back the statement and now trump has been tweeting all republicans must remember what they are witnessing here
12:20 am
a lynching thousands of african-americans were slaughtered during the lynching epidemic in this country for no reason other than the color of their skin the president should not compare a constitutionally mandated impeachment inquiry to such a dangerous and dark chapter. of american history other democrats called the lynching reference disgusting while republican senator lindsey graham said the impeachment was a lynching in every sense other republicans though were divided as not the language i would use republicans say democrats are conducting the impeachment inquiry behind closed doors to deliberately hide information from the public democrats say they're doing it to protect the integrity of the investigation and are said to be planning public hearings soon their strategy to bring the most damning evidence forward and
12:21 am
to vote on impeachment before yours and i do joe castro al-jazeera washington well alan fischer is live for us in washington we have the opening statement what does he say. and we do it came from the washington post the know it we all have it it's 15 pages long which is quite long for an opening statement but there's a few very interesting things in it 1st of all william taylor says that when he arrived in ukraine he was concerned that there was a 2nd line of communication between u.s. officials and ukrainian officials and that 2nd line of communication seemed to involve the president's personal attorney rudy giuliani and he believed it wasn't what king in the interests of long term american foreign policy but there's a point in the opening statement where he says the dog was clear that he wasn't asking for a quid pro quo but he did want the ukrainian president to step in front of a microphone and say that he was investigating joe biden joe biden's son the
12:22 am
company that joe biden's son what for and also possible irregularities in the 2016 u.s. presidential election so there is not using the phrase quid pro quo which is something that donald trump has consistently said he is actually asking for something in return there william taylor said he was concerned that a white house meeting with president. and donald trump was being delayed because of domestic political issues and then gordon sunderland who is the american ambassador to the e.u. said that in fact everything was being held up until there was an investigation into bush cyma and also into corruption both of those births and corruption are really kind of shorthand for an investigation into the 26th election but particularly an investigation into the bidens and joe biden in particular and
12:23 am
this important to point out here that if a president asks for foreign interference in u.s. presidential elections such as asking someone to investigate conduct opposition research on a political opponent that is not only against the constitution it's against the law and that puts donald trump in real jeopardy significant testimony there from william taylor thank you very much alan fischer in washington. now to lebanon thousands of protesters there are taking to the streets for a 6th consecutive day despite emergency reforms announced by the government demonstrators gathered in the capital beirut calling for primeness assad hariri to resign they reject the economic measures announced on monday including a 50 percent cost in politician salaries in the establishment of an anti corruption panel protests 1st began on thursday over the cash strapped government's plans to impose new taxes and have since widened calls for the entire political class to step down protests are also taking place in the northern city of tripoli stephanie
12:24 am
deca is there for us. thousands of returned to the streets here in tripoli the square really comes alive at night and there's been a huge turnout here over the last 6 days out tripoli is traditionally a stronghold of prime minister saad how do you but it's also a city that has been neglected it is incredibly poor and people here been telling us that it is time for change posters of sadie and other of the main politicians have been ripped down from these walls and something you never would have seen before this is the sunni majority city the city politician this is why these protests are unprecedented it's also happening in shiite areas and the people are together it's called the sectarian divide something hugely significant several have been speaking to here downstairs say that also they want to change the face of tripoli tripoli has always been seen it was affected by the spillover of the syrian war you had gotten bottled between both sides neighborhoods here a couple of years ago and they think that this is so important to change that again
12:25 am
they say that the reforms are not enough they don't trust the politicians the message is the same whether in beirut other cities and here in tripoli they want everyone that's been running this country for the balls couple of decades saying creating the problems that they face now to go. and official iraq inquiry has found security personnel used excessive force against protesters during the recent wave of anti-government demonstrations the report is saying $149.00 civilians and 8 security officers were killed due to live fire and excessive force how senior commanders responsible but stopped short of blaming the prime minister and other top officials more than 70 percent of the deaths were caused by shots to the head or the chest the government committee investigating the violence at that had been no order to shoot protests 1st erupted on august 1st a high unemployment poor public services widespread corruption imran khan has more now from baghdad. the report hasn't actually been released to the public there was a statement read out on a rocky state t.v.
12:26 am
from the promises office the key points of the reports the government has admitted to life being used against the protesters also admitted to excessive force but it's also put some of the blame on the protesters saying that the protesters used petrol bombs that they threw at the iraqi security forces and therefore the iraqi security forces how to defend themselves however a number of very senior military officials have been removed from their posts we're hearing at least 7 of those have been removed from their post across the country and we're also hearing that the entire dossier has been sent to the iraqi judicial reform investigation will this be enough to appease the protesters the protesters began demanding basic services demanding jobs to morning more opportunity and then to corruption they ended by demanding an investigation into the deaths of the people protesting with them this is the results of that investigation supposed to
12:27 am
come out a couple of days ago it didn't it's now still not been released in full to the public but we now know what's contained in the report will it be enough to actually appease the protesters and stop them coming out onto the streets while it's highly unlikely another big protest has been called for friday the 25th of october and the protesters will be looking at what's contained in this statement to see if it's going to satisfy them highly unlikely that it won't what the protesters want is the people responsible to be to be put behind bars still have fully on the program a dam project that continues to divide his prime minister of egypt to return to dialogue catch limeys regional government calls for open talks with spanish and his following days of violent unrest. and in sports and then in new zealand are at the center of a spying. i had a wild card in my. head
