7:02 pm
the full of a shot out a side to let's go live to wrestle said he's in damascus for us. so festival of a soul. tell us a bit more about what we know this meeting and the us delegations visit to the capsule that you asked. allegation left by barbara lee. the deputy seconds of states was here today and meeting the page. yeah, so patrols and the so they have discussed the how the transition is going to take place. and of course, the fights against isolating the content. this is one of the primary concerns of the united states and also how the new cda is going to be form. so um american medications are saying, well, they have for the past year or the new position to be elusive as well. i. this is a line that gives you more and more for many of the western delegations when they're coming here and and her gym. the new administration in syria seem to be
7:03 pm
inclusive and. 6 is the primary cause of a because when we talk about the cd and move it in to the station or to 0 positions, why the 1st month is that it could coordination as many fractions of their quarters are concerned that they might be the most. they might be not in the powered shading table, that is the great the concern, and if that happens for have perhaps this will lead to somehow a further pollution. so that's why i know the us and the spaces here is origin, the new government to be inclusive. and of course how they're going to do to take the company to transitional periods. and of course the 5 against i so as well. but another issue that it hasn't been official but therapy, some unconfirmed reports that also be uh, does it do us that occasion as meaning tools with the new position about israel, the vision position toward as well as well. but we do not have much details about
7:04 pm
that as of now, yet i've never or this meeting is extremely important because this is the 1st time that the u. s. in addition to officially the meeting stage. yes. how does that sound? well appraisals in damascus. so they're extremely cautious, because many officials of the age this are still on the tell release of the usa, and they say that based on the actions, they will decide whether to remove sds, what of that title is, or whether they're going to remain on that list and russel in the sullen pulse of the country. what. what do we know about this? is wally shooting the boston side, which folders to go on high field supplied. go down heights. well, just i will seize the full of the team here because i have started to have a minute to add them to where the, the to but see of you particularly through coordinates for our region. i don't side it's, it's in satisfied in size box today was the 1st time what they offer,
7:05 pm
the full of us averaging was the 1st time that is rarely soldiers have shoes, people. and that was in matter when any time. so when people were protesting, a guess is that the minute the lessons because today is that the army has entity into more with it. just as of now is not clear whether they're planning to remain there. whether this is an invasion or whether just they have gotten into the areas and cleaning the areas, destroying the administrative structure can be proving or not as of this moment. that is quite, that is not clear. yes. have ever seen such time that varies from these, then you know, the city and story of the city and citizens, that is quite something new and this it was. and so his veil, it seems that it is the main security track not or that we didn't station in damascus, but also cdns as well. as i said, just i was of the shortest,
7:06 pm
says it says start the bomb the country. even if even perhaps didn't do time to celia's boy, the 4 of the virginians that's less is what more than half a decade. but as i said for now, the officials here when i talked to them, they said that they do not plan to get into any conflict with is ready yet. however, they are saying that the recording on the 2 national are committed to to stop is red aggression, a gas city, and territory. ok. russell, cut out joining us that from damascus and behind rest. so we can hear plenty of fireworks going off. we can still see crowds, thousands of people flooding the square of the main square that in my head square in the central damascus, laughing all those fine work still celebrating off to the 2nd friday, pres 2nd friday. so is the full of special aside the end of 50 is of the aside regime. the combination of 13 is of simple for those of
7:07 pm
hertz. i'm some nervousness about the new syria thousands set out celebrating that at 7 pm central time and central damascus. we're doing is now is marco, this ends here. he's the 17 though. he is global slash, the advisor and joe pinnacle with specialist joins us now from new york for what i want to pick up on this us delegation in damascus. how extraordinary is it that the head of key us delegation member has met the had a as a back accurate l. shara he is. yes. the leader of serious new administration. but he's also a one to the terrorist in the us. yes, i mean it's a new region. realities will dictate policy for many players in syria and many players in the region and players externally with the us basically. yes,
7:08 pm
h t s is under a is on the terrorist list. there was a bounty until recently about the on the head of, of joining for $10000000.00 bounty. so, but the thing is that even with the same primarily with giovanni's interest as a staff, she a real remove from that terrace list and eventually have sanction sounds here. we lifted on the when someone, when a group is on a terrorist list, the us government can not provide any form of material support for them. they can engage in communication with them. and that's exactly what this delegation is doing . this delegation is once again adapting to regional realities, a court most players in syria and the region and abroad a caught them off guard the venue down for the down for so i think everyone is struggling right now. but the polls, the political process will be driven primarily by syrians on the ground and outside of us have to take at this point a wait and see approach. yeah, the big, very,
7:09 pm
very interesting. see all events like falls on the ground. so the us as celebrations, always gone as far as it kind of right now, beating in, talking to the new administration, who then decides to remove h t s. and with our shower from the terrorist list, i'm ben lift sanctions. and that takes a process and that's not something that will be done by the i don't, the, by the ministration has a few weeks left. but the issue is, is this becomes very political, not just in the us, but around the world because other countries, europe, turkey have the monetary risk list. so it has to be sort of a wait and see approach. the words coming from july and h t s. sheet to appear or encouraging, but it has to be backed up by actions on the ground. and those actions on the ground will take time to unfold. hence, they'll be a power lo track before lifting before taking any one off, the total risk list will listing any sanctions. a process has to be asked to begin
7:10 pm
and the process has to into confidence, building measures all the time. and then so. ready we have decision will be made. i don't think there's enough time for the binding administration to make that decision. that's something that's going to about to be designed by a new us administration with donald trump and in the light of events on the ground . there has to be a strategic re think of us policy in the middle east. it has to adapt to realities . and it's going to require a combination of both diplomatic and security until now is here in the us primary focus with his $900.00 troops. nation, syria and the young place has been to contain rateable forces and those of islamic state. but right now with the new realities that military, that largely military cartridge is going to have to be balanced with. a very skillful diplomatic approach is that is especially as in the northeast and pop they are talking about we've got the tech is present. yep. type of a vowing to wipe out the very code is fine. says that the us is allied with the yes,
7:11 pm
i mean that's, that's, that's an ongoing continuing issue. that is divided the us and it's turkey and it's ally, turkey. it's nato ally, not just the simple i like, but i need to alex. so this is going to, this is part of that on folding process. it's a very ration, remember, for the us b s t, f, which is largely a courage for us, but also includes other elements as plate of stabilizing factor for the us and eastern syria. one example is a prison that's under s, the guard at this $10000.00 islamic state prisoners. if something were to happen, if violence would have come into and the see a what a full of car. the question is, what happens with those 10000 prisoners? do they go back and they go back in june of 2 engaged, somebody engage in insurgency, and that's what price the balance of turkey has. its interest primarily, not just the kurdish element, but also the refugees issue. correct turkey is
7:12 pm
a country that has most to gain from a stable syria and the most to lose from an unstable syria. because once again, the refugees, everyone thinks that the refugees from turkey wire in cedar rapids using by been on sheer and refugees in europe. although i'm going to go back now, that's going to take time, another process, and another issue that needs to be dealt with. because many of these refugees are living in places where they at least have some degree of stability, okay? and they don't know what, what they're going home to next. absolutely. okay. marker attends, you know, many thanks. indeed for taking the time showing us again that from new to well, it's taking a little bit more of a look now at the tech is present with that type. otherwise, we used to ration of tech is determination to eliminate us bank cottage that fights is in northern syria. this is the latest picture of the military situation in the country. this green area shows territory controlled by the new government. the movies is controlled by the serbian democratic forces. that's
7:13 pm
a combination. that's why cut a spices. the west supports this group and has troops up in the north to kill this allied fighters control the red areas to kids as it wants to keep cutters. fighters away from its buddha. in the south, is ready to ground. forces are expanding the occupation of the golan heights they've sees what was at the motorized bosses though. i'm going beyond that. the un says this violates a longstanding agreement with syria as being swimming for them because they are lose. she's in this done both for us. so we have uh the text presence and i'm offering to help the syrians for a government and shape its constitution. how's it proposed? it's going to do that. so for instance, sir john spoke to reporters on his way back from cairo, the h summit, back to through kiera on thursday. he mentioned the old designs, the off camera and uh, he said that this is a transfer of experience and he said his government representatives are in touch
7:14 pm
with mr. jolanda. he said, mr. jolanda and not about charel. and also he mentioned that his a foreign minister, how confidant will soon be paying a visit to syria, to pope with the new administration officials at age. this is listed as a service organization in to care as well, along with the united states and european list as well. but currently after the success of the opposition to get these, the current in to transition government as a partner, as a strategic partner and to gaze ready to help assist in terms of establishing a new constitution and institutions in the country. because took care of your hosting is the most kind of a number of syrian references, then it be given the a domestic a back please sure, of a guest, the government and the end of took a society to care, prefers
7:15 pm
a safe and stable return for the syrians, back in their country and prisons are dumb, mentioned that it people is suing peoples children not going to school. so it is not going to be happening in a day or so. and people took, it will never take out the syrian refugees, but they will need the stable country to return. this is the reason why true kid is trying to assist the new government, not only in terms of establishing a new constitution and institutions photo so tricky offers help to establish a proper national army with the new administration. okay, send them many thanks for the update that from his stumble, the, the mold in 7000 palestinian families have been wiped off gauze of civil registry since
