6:03 pm
we've got 2 correspondents on this story that vasant is standing by for us in moscow for russia's reaction 1st let's go to sin and cos all new in istanbul c.n.n. is this confrontation now going to escalate further or has it been contained. some of this is actually probably the question of the last 10 years in the syria conflict because there have been times that the tension they come came to a specific point but everything was is but this is the 1st time that turkish and syrian army is our confront are in a way confronting each other in in clashes on this is the 1st time that the turkish governments have a choose the syrian army and for attacking the their turkish military forces who are inside of the upon the request of the syrian government based on the stand
6:04 pm
and such an agreement in terms in their school ations on so and so far it seems very critical but what is binding will be most core stance because just a couple of minutes ago a pretty president his communications director just waited he said that if moscow cannot control the syrian government's mainly the maskers then turkey will take action so. just a couple of minutes ago again we learned that turkey's foreign minister made which will have the phone conversation with his russian counterpart sergey laro which means turkey is also trying to seek some explanation from the. russian partners that they have to know russia and turkey have been on the same page when it comes to syria maybe they worked on the gray areas of the syrian conflict but they haven't. spiked it by late for the poetic crisis or they have managed to be
6:05 pm
partners so far but i have spoken to some political circles in ankara and they're telling me that turkish mincer observe ation posts have been attacked before and by mainly this shia if i took groups that are and they're engaged with the syrian army is syrian government syrian government they're probably. again the syrian government is not going to take responsibility will say we didn't do it but the issue of fighter groups that this whoever did this to everything happened despite of the escalation there was signed psalmist so despite a ceasefire was in the act but turkey sees this as a red line and especially turkish military members being killed during those attacks is a kind of touching incident for turkey and especially demoralization for the turkish military members inside of this collision zone who are there only for

6:07 pm
confrontation between the 2. at the moment it said taking a silent approach we haven't heard any clear answers coming from moscow about this incident or does very serious incident and cinemas said there was a phone call between the 2 foreign ministers of turkey and russia but nothing has been found # or released here at this and here in moscow the only thing that we heard earlier in the day from the military was a very short statement basically giving a very different version of events on this incident. saying that there weren't any soldiers turkish soldiers killed there was only injured and they said that the turkish troops didn't announce that they were going to have movements so they should have notified the russian forces and that was sort of all an accident basically and also they sat there was no contra text by turkey. syrian forces
6:08 pm
right now although we have heard of course from other sources that that's actually happening so russia is very much downplaying this whole incident and of course flooding a putin has has had this balancing act since a he entered syria in 2015 then and for the on the on our site society has been a balancing all the forces only ron 0 and the syrian forces and he has been putting a lot of our front in getting this very strong bond with the world earlier on and making sure that he was on the same page and they had of course a very regular meetings in russia and also outside but it seems now that this whole bond is under a lot of for attention on the a lot of strain are right now and this so-called bromance could be about to collapse and also there's a very valid question to ask about how these these peace agreements that they signed in at stana and in very recently how much value they still have considering

sandbags in tehran he says the league recording reveals contradictions in the iranian leadership version of the incident. the narrative coming out of the front has been that it was the revolutionary guard that shut down the aircraft with a missile and it took them 3 days to investigate and then informed the government but this conversation between air traffic control and this domestic airline pilot shows that someone within the civil aviation authority must have known and if they didn't know why wasn't the government informed or if the simulation authority heads didn't know why was it that information fed up the chain of command so it puts the ring in government in a very difficult position because they've put out a narrative that they didn't know that the government didn't know it was the military that knew and it took them 3 days to come out with the information but this ordeal says otherwise. still ahead on al-jazeera the u.k. prime minister and the e.u. announce competing visions for their future relationship to break plus.

6:35 pm
ground they will tell you that they feel on the whole the course in malawi are somewhat independent but there was that allegation a few days ago a prominent banker here in malawi is a lawyer so tried to bribe the judges it's alleged his banker is linked to the president and the investigation currently going on now in terms of that but the key thing of course malarky this election result is not a high what does that mean it means of course of the a fresh election that will be history for this country the 1st time will happen in malawi is the 1st time i believe that would ever have happened in fact in africa in fact the most recent time it happened in africa was in kenya in 2017 when of course they wanted a rerun because there were irregularities in that election so a lot of people will see what happened of course the opposition parties are saying that if the judges are all that the president i recall one amazing election because saying how some of its supporters are going to react some of them are grouping of

6:37 pm
is going to go there's going to be no new evidence the opportunity for witnesses has been shut down so now it's just a long winding down of this trial 2 hours for each side the house managers and also the president's defense team to each argue their case and then we know that essentially this is going to adjourn until wednesday afternoon that is when that all important vote whether to acquit the president is going to be held and pretty much we know how this is going to go given this is a body controlled by republicans but what's interesting in the midst of all of this sammy is everything that happens between now and wednesday because we've got a couple of important political events which really makes this a pivotal week in u.s. politics we've got not only the iowa nominating contest that's where democrats are going to begin to their process of nominating someone to try and unseat donald trump but also we have looming in all of this the state of the union address on
6:38 pm
tuesday evening this is where the president's going to stand up in front of congress in front of all of those people that have impeached him in the house of representatives and make the case that the union is strong in the united states it's a bizarre dichotomy that's going to be sort of juxtapose right there in front of the viewers of the american voting public but essentially what this is is setting the tone for what we're going to see from now until november the president continuing to maintain he's a victim of partisan politics of democrats trying to undo the 2016 you allow us election and influence the 2020 and the democrats saying that he is unfit for office at the end of the day what we have here is the politicians made their case but ultimately it's the voter that's going to decide in november so this is going to be an interesting few days with a lot of machinations at the end it's going to be a sort of a battle to see who comes out on top. u.s.
6:39 pm
democratic presidential hopefuls have made their final pitch to voters ahead of monday's nominating process in iowa the state has held the 1st caucus for more than 40 years and the results can indicate how well a candidate might do in the campaign an official looks at why iowa is 1st and whether that might change thanks this is the benefit from going 1st the chance to beat the candidates piece to face to ask them questions to test their positions. i was is not 1st because it's important it's important because it's 1st iowa has been the 1st in the nation contest since 1972 that's because its caucus process is drawn out and complicated presidential campaigns can spark into life here or be extinguished that gives people incredible power one report suggests voters in iowa have 20 times more influence than almost any other state the weight and meaning of iowa is really supplied by our national media establishment this is the 1st time
6:40 pm
they have hard results from actual voters and so if you just as an opportunity to essentially understand where these candidates are in the race iowa is predominately white it's mainly rudel has few big industries essentially it doesn't look a lot like the rest of america there are plenty who would like to see the 1st contest held in the state this more representative of america as a whole but that's simply not going to happen if somewhere were to move its primary or its caucuses in iowa would move it so and because the state law says it always has to be 1st. the people here insist they take their responsibilities very seriously in vetting presidential candidates and i just think that you know we've made good decisions in the past not always one you want but very important to know that the people that are on the 1st line for cookies doing are knowledgeable and can represent minorities throughout the united states when experienced political
6:41 pm
watcher says the people here know they're doing their job for the rest of the country i will say in terms of the diversity of the state. iowans care about a wide variety of issues there's a lot of issues including issues that relate to the minority communities they get aired in the iowa caucuses there's a brown and black specifically dedicated to giving candidates an opportunity or their issues. or not. some politicians have skipped iowa complaining of its size influence it's never worked out for them whether they like it or not for the moment the road to the white house goes through here alan fischer al-jazeera des moines iowa. british prime minister barak's johnson has outlined the u.k.'s negotiating position with the e.u. the u.k. has now left the block and has until the end of the year to agree a long term deal with the e.u. or johnston says he wants a free trade agreement and not only cost us warning u.k.
6:42 pm
will have to abide by its regulations let's go straight to lawrence lanes in london with all the details for us and lawrence. is this being seen once again as the british back the approach of trying to have all of its cake outside the e.u. and yet eat it with all the benefits of free trade arrangement well i mean to further he didn't say that he necessarily even needed a treaty you know in in time to signing up to european union standards he said we don't need to write that down we'll just do it anyway it's sort of typical flippant approach but origins in some ways but i think the but the main thing to understand summit at this point is because the nation's haven't actually started yet you know you've got him and michel barnier for the european side giving virtually simultaneous news conferences this morning and both sort of beating their chests and pushing out was what are effectively equal and opposite hard line positions so michel barnier says we europeans demand continued access to british waters for
6:43 pm
fishing even though he knows that bracks it has that as an idea equally boris johnson knows that the europeans want continued alignment and they continue into the same sorts of standards and so to try to undermine that he gave a speech in which he said we don't need those things at all in fact he said we'd be just as happy to have either a canadian or an australian style deal is what he says the question. is whether we agree a trading relationship with the e.u. comparable to canada's or more like strangers and i have no doubt that in either case the u.k. will prosper mightily in of course a. new relationship with our closest neighbors who range far beyond trade how are officials explaining the obvious fact though lawrence that it took years to
6:44 pm
