i can. come. how israel's political balancing act is a phrase he is planning to start the next in parts of the occupied west bank. trying to preserve we go inside north america's last great tropical jungle to see what's being done to say. so that libya's parliament calls it a direct threat egypt says it's all a misunderstanding a day after president sisi threatened to send his army into libya his foreign minister says he backs a political solution to the conflict l.c.c. warned of military intervention if forces belonging to libya's u.n. recognized government advance on the strategically important city of.

you are ready to carry out any missions what i witnessed is a living proof of our capabilities i can say egypt's army is one of the mightiest armies in the region i am certain if we need a few sacrifices like those being carried out over the past 7 years along our borders with libya you are prepared to carry out any mission with no home soil or if required beyond our border lines but just a few hours later egypt's foreign minister. push for a political solution saying the government in tripoli had not properly read the ideas of l.c.c. now the u.s. says the road map to stability involves a cease fire immediate restoration of libyan oil production and the launch of a political process malik trainer is in misrata with the reaction from libya's internationally recognized government. several d.n.a. officials have responded to the president of the for the his c.c.'s remarks on saturday called the mystery that's the speaker of the high state council has said

has denounced his remarks calling them a violation to libya's sovereignty of the g.n. a military commander was spoke to a little while ago he said that their forces are adamant and they will answer search now it's important to note that these are forces that know the territory and certain very well in 2011 forces primarily from here in this rock were responsible for entering search and capturing and killing one more good that they did that of course with nato support in 2016 the same forces are the ones who went to sirte and liberated it from high school they did that of course with american support so these are forces that know the territory well they are confident they can enter sirte and they say that they will and you know the commander earlier told me that the d.n.a. or our forces will not stop until we in his words liberate all of libya from have

to control and so what we're seeing is the genie forces of the political system here are adamant about. getting aletha have to out of the picture they say they won't negotiate with after and they're adamant about retaking or taking control of all of libyan land. to my kind of now in washington he has more reaction from the united states. very cautious response from the state department a senior state department official says that all parties must establish a cease fire lie that is observed they say too that a key to achieving a lasting peace is a resumption of oil production in libya they also their fact that they continue to support the un backed efforts to achieve a lasting truth and also make mention to the of the berlin meeting in january at which various parties made various commitments which are not being observed at present but underlying and bullets in the us position is perhaps

a gap between the executive president and state department in the past president trump has supported khalifa haftar in complete reversal to what the state department position was now officially the us of position remains support for the government troops in based in tripoli however there is that the lack of clarity in terms of where president trump stands now it must be mentioned as well that some 2 weeks ago president trump did have a conversation with the turkish president or one at which one said that they came to a lot of agreement on the situation in libya now there was nothing official out of the white house on that particular conversation but certainly it's a very important one given the nature and the power of the one support for the government forces based in tripoli. or donald trump a more controversy it is for reelection rally in months the u.s. president insulted china and told supporters coronavirus testing had turned up too

over the island are backed by the us while the internationally recognized government has fighting against the us to see is backed by saudi arabia and this is a major victory for the us to see because so qatar is an island which is located at the mouth of the gulf of aden and it overlooks 3 strategic shipping routes for oil and gas tankers basically of the gulf of aden bubble amende and the red sea all the way through the. suez canal so from a s.t.c. perspective this is something that would further expand their political influence and the s.t.c. made it quite clear that this is just part of a long political process until they decide finally to break away from the northern part of yemen and reinstate the southern republic of yemen that existed until 1990 and this is definitely a major setback for saudi arabia. israel is

marrow of a frat within the etzion bloc argues for moving quickly and taking what's been put on the table by the us administration and i think prime minister that i now understand that you can't postpone such an opportunity relying that there will be a better one in the future because i don't recall ever in the past having such an opportunity i don't think he'll give it up this time a 2nd option though fraught with risk given jordan's vehement opposition to any annexation would be to begin with the jordan valley israel says it needs a defined and defensible eastern border here but it has economic interests to $11000.00 israeli settlers live in the illegal jordan valley settlements using disproportionate water allocation for a year round agriculture 85 percent of the land is off limits to palestinians and it's here in the jordan valley that benjamin netanyahu is finding some of the stores just opposition to his plans for annexation to the truck plant as a whole and it's coming from powerful settler leaders here they're lobbying against annexation based on the trump plan because it means agreeing in principle to

a palestinian state. ought if the meaning of extending sovereignty is to get a palestinian state we say no thank you we give up on sovereignty we keep living as we are right now out of national responsibility because a palestinian state with endangered the existence of the state of israel. perhaps the least likely option of all the one still floated in the knesset you know friendly newspaper would be to start with the 15 so-called enclave settlements these would be small israeli islands within the trump lands palestinian state the palestinian leadership the precise nature of the 1st step doesn't matter any annexation is illegal and must be stopped what we hope is that israel should not continue to be above and got a national law. what we hope is that there really is that i should feel it over and thought of national pressure for any of the options to happen 1st the united states says gansu netanyahu need to agree potentially giving got some
