5:06 pm
going to open its mission is rented, feels like that there is a push to try and get to support this country, try and get and enjoyed with this new administration. remember that the, you know, if you're being union and it's spot, those it'd be looking for an endorsement, the assad government but have not been able to find it. took a now provided that opportunity because of it support for the safety and opposition throughout the v is to key also has a stake because it's. busy is a long border and also have been fighting on the border with good is separate this, but it seems terrace. so yes, there is. a lot of them put this in trying to push this delta been towards the bill of not just the people, but according to what the international community feels would be good for them. and the region is been, and one longstanding issue in that is the expansion of it gets to the occupation on goal line and other places as well as the sites that, that it is being bombing. and you've heard from bridge at the, out of the, on the,
5:07 pm
or talk about the separate sovereignty into sit tight dirty integrity reiterating that the european union has been. so yes, this government is trying to make in george that the people and the outside world is trying to make inroads with this new administration. there's the, everybody that you've been speaking together on the streets are on the diplomatic 7 . are happy with what they're hearing, but they want the actions to fall list of some of the job with that for us and damascus. thank you. as good, as i mentioned earlier, turkey is present on the head of the european commission. they've been using an anchor syndicate, typically has more on what was discussed on the, on the visit to on colorado is the 1st visit's a role in her 2nd mandate. and she gave a lot of importance to the visits um it'd before she met with circus presents. i just, i dont, she stated that you're acknowledges that add on is an influential key regional
5:08 pm
player when it comes to syria. so today during a drawing press conference by add on and from the land a we with miss a new beginning, new page open for to kit you and relations. and also for the future of the syrian people. both sides try to cooperate in the best way for the continuation of so many syrian assistance and assistance and rebuilding life and reconstruction in syria. along with establishing tours in between the european union countries and the new administration in syria. that's a, that's over through the bashar assad government to kia, has a very defense full knowledge about the local groups inside syria has a military presence for a couple of years. and that the have a trade or the syrian rebels factions. and that's why the european countries are twice to benefit from this experience as they see the feature of syria,
5:09 pm
the path to serious feature actually goes through to kim. so telling me though, as well guys pins old a like try and peace and security studies and army investigates have with us on the program. i mean, the new in term lead was telling the outside world and the international community to help syria. you do get the impression from europe that they want to help in that way. hey, ringing directly that countries are considered not including the you. yeah. and you could be forgiven for, for guessing the h t. s. is that designated terrorist organization by all of these countries, and indeed the un security council. so i think it really is amazing progress. buyout shara, and basically lining up all these different countries and heads of state and special invoice to meet with him. uh, it really is, you know, is it looks like he's on the way to the listing and it kind of defined 2 way if nothing a, this year, a way. now there's 2 types of functions that will be discussed. the 1st is, as i mentioned, the listing
5:10 pm
h t s. the 2nd is lifting sanctions against syria. for example, the u. s. has secondary sections of getting serious. so anyone who does business would say, regardless of what their american no, no will be sanctioned by the us and. and he's very keen to get those sections remove the steering economy is on his knees and it's reliance on his oil from the run for example. so he needs to be able to show the syrian people, but you can get the lights on, you can get the water running for example, and to get that he needs the sanctions relief. but i don't think it's going to come for free at all of these countries. the saying that, you know, we expect you to do x. why is that? in the meantime, we expect you to uphold the rights of minorities, the rights of women, to show us that you have changed in deeds and not just in words. of course it would be. the problem is security that he has has internal security and then he's got his board has to worry about if he can indeed secure all of the boat does that. we know that was fighting to the east of the country and one of the issues at the moment is he intends bombing by israel in certain parts of the country. they say that that targeting strategic sites,
5:11 pm
military sites development site. so they don't want to risk to get that hands on. and they've also, i made a huge incursion into a bus as i that was agreed upon in 1974. these are problems for any government that takes over in damascus. they're gonna have to deal with this well, in some shape or form an defacto with the us. yes. and i think is, you know, it's not just israel, if all of these lead is trusted at form, you should only now al sharra that these transformations would genuine, which they don't, he still have all sorts of issues on the ground because, you know, there are many of the different militias and, and groups in syria aside may have gone on a plane, but many of his people are still that iran may have said they don't have any active person now in syria anymore. but many people who work for them in groups. what with the are still there, so he really has to stump down his old father at the and show that he's the one in charge. he's the one quote in the shelves, and that's protecting his board is from israel also from turkey, by the way,
5:12 pm
who have a 100 mile before his own, in northern syria. and so at the same time he's working with the if he took you, probably the country, the page, this is closest to and they were the 1st ones to send the officials to publicly meet with him to the get them all eyes. what we see at the moment, so it's a very, very, very tight balancing act that he has to walk. and he has to do all of this without alienating his cool constituency, who at the end of the day, a still so need your hottest of course. uh, what we do have is a president elect in the us. he's already commenting on the situation in syria by saying it was on the front of the takeover and took, he was behind it. so he's got this political diagnostics that he's also got to deal with on january the 20th. yeah. so trump is someone who doesn't forget slides against them in the past. i think it's bad to say, i think back to 2019 when it was due on and from good on very well. and who do i kind of chums trump in to say and saying, okay, let to do the job and syria,
5:13 pm
get all of the us troops out to serious trouble declared that. and then almost immediately afterwards, taking lawrence's buffalo, an operation and stepped of attacks against the kurdish forces. this i'm the trump who then bought trucks and also some nasty things about to do on and then kept 900 troops in the country as a result. so it'd be interesting to see if we can get a reset between july and from for the next administration. so they've got plenty to work with for the site and sign the lack of trust. so they're going to have to rebuild. it was 70 moving parts right now that the wheels have not stopped yet. rob guys, pencil, thanks for joining us from durham university. thank you. the full 137 days of genocide and garza has now killed moving 45000 palestinians is very full since they've committed mass killings with impunity nearly every day. and

5:15 pm
westbank and in similar fashion to what it is, the fact so doing in southern lebanon despite the ceasefire there. and this is an early indication of what is real, is willing and not willing to talk about when it comes to reaching a cease fire agreement despite all the efforts and some of the measured optimism about reaching a deal. all players understand that right now, the discussions are about an intern deal, not an end to the war. and so costs pre empting, those discussions with that policy declaration, not all the address data. i'm still a head here, although it is there, a braving buildings and a tech stuff is of the human agency, full palestinian refugees. continue to address causes desperate names. how many degrees info to northern gun i'll be telling you about a 60 comes with that us pulls timeless apart and impractical lives and live
