11:03 am
this is an idea that iran heavenly or poor. this am just recently. are you ready for the minister? i made up to lie young was in turkey, said that iran understand turkey security concerns. however, a military operation is not a solution. it says that the 2 companies needs to increase their political force to find a diplomatic solution right after he went to the to, to damascus, met the city and officials. and now today we hear that the syrian foreign minister is also going to be coming to tell ron. and he is going to be briefed about the, the what happened, what have been told during the meeting between turkey spreads the just i bad one and randy president brought him ready c. so we do not know whether that will be a solution coming out of concrete solution coming out today. and whether you run is going to succeed, to be successful, to prevent the military turkeys, military preparations or the incursion into syria. however, today, the,
11:04 am
the guarantor companies of the us on a piece told which aims to and the war in syria russia took in iran. there will be a 3 metro summit between this presidents and during the press or after the, the meeting. we'll see whether they have agreed on a concrete roadmap or not. right, so, so that's when it comes to syria. what other issues will be on that agenda? no doubt the ukraine war will be talked about with the russian president there? well do, later today, prison at 130, i'm a russian president of them putting are going to hold a bilateral meeting. and the main issue during that meeting is going to be the grain export from ukraine. so the officials from both sides, they said that one of the technicalities, they have agreed on how to create a safe corridor through through the black sea and to export the ukrainian grain from the port cities. and then take that green to stumble from
11:05 am
a stumble to be set out to the international market. however, the experts here are seeing that what the technicality is. agreements are there, but now it's time for the political decision. so they had the several phone calls between one and put in, and today we will see whether that political decision that need that will be declared or not. and also today put in and the run the president, the blame raise. you're also going to have making recently, there have been some reports that iran is planning to supply moscow with hundreds of the eighty's, the unmanned aerial vehicle, including those are capable of carrying the weapons. and in return, experts are seeing that iran is going to ask russia to prove what it's fiber, security, expert, expertise, tu, tu, tu, tu, tu, tu, tu iran that iran is often being targeted in terms of the cyber security, particularly of according to the random officials by by the but by israel,
11:06 am
this is put in the 2nd international 3 since the war began in ukraine and both russia and iran are under heavy sanctions. so these 2 sections here, countries are trying to they to develop their corporation in terms of the security and also 3. okay, thank you so much. russell started our as reporting for us from to ron. let's keep this conversation going with our senior political analyst model. i'm sure he's joining us here from the via skype one. good to have you with us. so as her soul was saying, it's quite an interesting development that you have the syrian foreign minister now heading to her on eyes. these meetings take place between the 3 presidents, russia, iran, and turkey. when it comes to syria, in particular, what are you going to be looking out for and what do you expect to happen? well, clearly tensions are rising over syria because of turkish decision to enlarge about 10 to 20 kilometer to 30 kilometer xo securities on the
11:07 am
sort that's as you said, is angering the iranians and the russians. and i think they're probably going to have some sort of an acord. having said that, whether the senior minister is wrong or not, syria has become a free for all non sovereign country. a more or less i feel state where by today, iranians, the church, the russians, and the americans are whole deployed in syria. and these rainy's feel that they have the right to act in syria bar and various targets and syria, of course, in addition to already occupying the ceiling height. so syria has been used by regional and global hours for their own reasons. and i think they will continue to do that. it is kind of sad, to be honest, that we are still talking about the been
11:08 am
a peace process 5 years after it was formed in order to end the war. and of course, we see no end in sight. and, and the other issue, of course, is the, the war in ukraine, and particularly the, the issue of the green exports out of the country. but what do you expect to come out of these discussions when it comes to the ukraine war? if anything at all? well, judging from what we've heard last week from the united nations and the 2nd general, there couldn't be a deal. and the horizon whereby turkey, russia, ukraine, and the united nation, you know, reached some sort of a formula whereby ukrainian rains are exported to various parts of that south. whereby there is some serious food sorta judges. some serious food insecurity in a good number of countries to day. so i think that is possible, but i think that's also possible only when those countries would be able to get
11:09 am
something on return. and i think the turks and the russians are clever enough in order to try to get something in return for that. and i think they would be using the question of ukraine show syria, but also the question of the iran its own vulnerability, as well as its newly acquired confidence in order to chip in introvert trilateral relations. right. so i think this is all right, nathan, the bilateral relations on the question of syrian question of the korean, and the question of the nuclear is all related to this li, may king of them, at least that is happening as we speak. i think the month of july will go down in history as the month where we are seeing at the beginnings of remaking of them at least perhaps a new cold war. and them, at least where by turkey to run on russia as well as china and others are taking a position after the united states as nudge it's or in our lives. and basically,
11:10 am
you know, set them in line or tried to, ah, whereby, you know, brighten, has attempted some pressures and saudi arabia and others as well as that, of course, to chip in and in you axes, or when you cold war. the thing is, and i think that's what we're witnessing today, the, we're in the thing is that none of these countries, you know, is, is fully loyal to one superpower. unlike the previous cold war, right? when i, when i, when one was over, ice between east and west, nowadays, they are all open to all sorts of alliances. it's what you call a hybrid, cold war rates. what's rings into my next question? in fact, matawan, because how would you describe relations, particularly between turkey and russia, because they have found themselves on opposite ends when it comes to a certain conflicts. like of course, syria, for example, like libya. but at the same time, turkey has an impose sanctions on russia. joining other western countries?
11:11 am
absolutely. i think both countries have remained open to one another. i think there is some sort of a mutual interest or between the 2. i think her russia knows old to when after it's deployment and sealants in classroom 15 that the turks are the more important neighbor. they're not happy, they're also and nature member. and i think turkey with prison are due on fishing elections next year as briskly opened up the possibility of what i call the hybrid relation to the various countries of the world. they could be a little numbered, but yet maintain open ah relations with the likes of russia, iran and others in order to advance turkey's interest, but also in order to play an important reasonable rule. so i think all these countries scale. so the paradoxical notably turkey is open to everyone now is read so grave, yet egypt as well as the united states,
11:12 am
europe and russia. so turkey once in a major player and i think it is becoming so. thank you so much smile on the side of her thinking. tell us from dell ha. record temperatures and raging wildfires are risking lives in threatening homes in large parts of western europe. forest fires in france, greece, portugal, and spain have burned through thousands of hector as of lands. zane bus driver reports from zamora, one of spain's worst affected regions, the battling to control the infer across spain. it's a race against time to contain wildfires that have been raging out of control from the south of the country to the north, where blazes have scorched 4600 hector's of land over the past few days. the train journeys also supported by the worst wildfires for
11:13 am
a decade in a visit to one of the worst effected area. spain's prime minister pedro sanchez made clear what he thought was to blame one to say that evidently climate change kills it kills people, kills ecosystems. the bio diversity and it also destroy the most precious goods of our society, which is affected by these wildfires, homes, businesses and livestock were here in a farming area in an agricultural area near the town of zamora, one of the worst effective parts of spain where the wildfires have been raging for days and we see truly apocalyptic scenes. the flames are just taking over suddenly the entire areas of farmland, entire buildings filled with animals and farming equipment. people are trying to use harvesters to dig fire lies to stop the fire where it is,
11:14 am
but it continues to rage on and take over more and more land just using it as fuel burning further and faster in southwest france, firefighters were using every means at their disposal, including controlled burning, a tactic, use to clear out the buildup of flammable materials by igniting the surrounding vegetation. and it is a matter of urgency since tuesday. the blazes have already consumed thousands of hector's of forests in the payroll region, and thousands of residents and tourist alike, forced to move to emergency shelters. amid all this is the uncomfortable reality of the effect of record breaking high temperatures. as delegates from 40 countries gathered at the petersburg climate dialogue in berlin. the message from the hosts act now before it's too late. and while we are still grappling with
11:15 am
the fall out from the pandemic, the impacts of climate change are becoming even more dangerous across the world. ah, threat that risk spilling out beyond countries directly affected. then bas robbie l g 0. so mora, spain still had on al jazeera protest, as in panama set road blocks ending a deal with the government on fuel price cuts. the field narrows and the race to take over from boris johnson, as british prime minister ah, the journey has begun. the fee for world copies on its way to cat hook your travel package today. well, we expect to record brooklyn england today with temperatures as the 1st ever boring of extreme heat issued by the u. k. met office and yet is cloud coming from the
11:16 am
west. so this is going to be the last day of extreme heat. there's been showing itself in western europe for a while now. and because of that and the lack of rain, we've got fires in spain and in france, the temperature don't look cause extreme here. bordeaux's forecast 29 today. so the heat is up here and probably moving eastwards is the last day for england to see it . but then it goes into germany to poland, up to scan them, even spreads down towards the hungarian plane as well, which is where we more normally see rather high temperatures. so a back to near a normal by the end of thursday. as you can see, this is the weather come get back to choose today, just to show you the progress of cloud and rain. a drop in temperature doesn't affect spain, and portugal attempts will start to rise again. and there won't be much rain to help with the fire fighting in france either. and not the subject of rain. this is when we get the biggest showers in tropical africa, or even the sale they been causing, flooding again in sudan and south sudan. and you see why another blob was come
