this is deja vu news live from berlin u.s. president donald trump says the u.s. is locked and loaded after drone strikes damaged major oil facilities in saudi arabia american officials blaming iran even though who's the rebels in yemen are claiming responsibility well prices and initially soaring in response will look at market reaction also on the show. surprise in tunisia as initial results from the country's staff election show 2 and 3 establishment candidates making it to the next round. and supporters of former zimbabwean president probably robert

mugabe planned a rousing farewell. last remains are taking the side of the former state but death as in life for god it is causing controversy. i'm brian thomas thanks so much for joining us u.s. president donald trump says the united states could respond militarily to the attacks on saudi arabia's oil infrastructure the u.s. blaming iran for the 2 drone attacks on oil fields and production facilities over the weekend now the president tweeting there is reason to believe that we know the culprit we are locked and loaded depending on verification but are waiting to hear from the kingdom referring to saudi arabia iranian backed the. based in yemen are

claiming responsibility but the u.s. says there is no evidence the attacks were launched from there. now for his part arounds president hassan rouhani had this to say. for the. americans instead of confessing that they have presence in the region or. in syria in yemen and other areas he has been problematic they accuse the countries of the region. all over solid has more from washington about the discussion in the u.s. capital about how to respond to the attacks president trump's twitter threat is causing confusion the pentagon reportedly urging restraint and observers actually believe the firing of hawkish security advisor john bolton would pave the way for a more conciliatory tone now president trump's tweet retching up tensions with iran

once again his plans of negotiating with iran's president rouhani are becoming more unrealistic while a new war is clearly not in the president's interest it also becomes obvious that the u.s. is lacking a strategy on the middle east and that puts both countries in a dangerous position. so how are the markets responding to the loss of 5 percent of global delhi oil production monica jones who did have your businesses here for more on that good morning monica old prices spiking right away on the news what's it looking like right now east somewhat i think you mentioned it also i've just checked just before i came to the studio currently brant crude stands at $67.00 a barrel still 10 percent higher than it was before the attack but it's somewhat east and we're not surprised of course that oil prices spiked those attacks were hitting the world's biggest petroleum processing facility and saudi arabia of

course being the biggest oil exporter shipping more than $7000000.00 barrels a day a knock out of 5 percent of global oil a surprise crude supply is dramatic at least at 1st especially when consider that the facility will not be operational for weeks to come according to experts and this represents 50 percent of overall saudi oil production so so it is quite quite a blow and in this shows you know just how vulnerable our global oil when they connect is that it is all connected it's not just vulnerable i think it's very important to say that it's very volatile let me just remind you that we've been talking for weeks and months about forwarding all prices in fact they were falling below 60 dollars a barrel in recent weeks to the point that only last week on thursday opec members came together and saudi arabia in particular demanded that everybody sticks to cutting output in order to keep prices somewhat ok especially

after it seemed on wednesday last week when u.s. president on a trump sort of implied that he might ease sanctions on iran which would have boosted out put an obviously weigh on prices so we're talking about a very volatile situation but not that dramatic get the situation in saudi arabia what happened is dramatic but when it comes to oil. price is the peaks this year we've seen where $75.00 a barrel when not there yet much much lower right now ok where are we were are we at right the 60 mark 6767 dollars a barrel barrel that's just what we having right now right now what about consumers i mean when i drive up to the pump you know later today i'm i'm i going to feel this immediately i don't know if you can feel it immediately here in germany just yet of course whenever something happens with the oil presidential it'll hit the consumer but it's quite interesting that i found out of all it'll be the motorists on the u.s. west coast who who are most likely to feel it why because all facilities those that

were attacked account for nearly half of all u.s. croll crude imports from saudi arabia and california in particular relies very heavily on those imports due to lack of pipelines and to connect them with oil rich texas so this is a problem for you so the sun doesn't always shine no and calaveras you hunt when it comes to problems like this monica thanks very much. ok let's bring you now and some of the other stories making the news this hour 50000 workers at u.s. carmakers general motors have gone on strike union leaders saying they were going ahead with the industrial action even though more talks on wages are flat else the 1st nationwide strike in the u.s. auto industry and more than a decade. celebrations to mark the national day of honduras turned violent after supporters of opposition parties protested against what they say is a corrupt government they are present one or longer nanda has to step down

and life descend on this grieving controversy. now the leaders of turkey russia and iran are meeting in ankara today for talks concerning the last rebel stronghold in syria province now turkish president richard fears a syrian offensive there will send tens of thousands of new refugees toward his country response. he wants to set up what he's calling a safe zone for refugees inside syria is also threatening to quote open the floodgates as he puts it and allow refugees to start coming to europe once again. turkish troops fire warning shots and tear gas at the border with syria. they're trying to prevent syrian protesters from storming across the frontier. the demonstrators are demanding protection from an offensive by the syrian government

on the last rebel stronghold of. this is a warning that if nothing is done to help us then we are coming to turkey and europe a lump of. this is added ones fear that the destruction and the death in a clip will send tens of thousands more syrian refugees towards his country joining the nearly $4000000.00 who've already fled the carnage. he say says will have to mattick consequences not just for turkey but for europe too because the couple that are small children we will be forced to open the gates. to let our children we will be forced to open the gates the only you know this if you are going to provide support then provide support if you are not sorry. everyone sees this area in northern syria as one solution to any new refugee crisis. turkish and american troops are already patrolling ahead of the establishment of what's being called a safe zone for the resettlement of up to 1000000 syrian refugees but everyone says

the international community and europe in particular i'm not offering enough support for the plan. he also accuses the e.u. of failing to honor its commitments in a landmark 2016 refugee jia with turkey. the e.u. offered ankara $6000000000.00 euros to stop the flow of migrants into europe in 2015 but added one says he's received barely half of the money europe says it's willing to have a discussion without $1.00 but greece which takes in most of the new arrivals says he must 1st change his tone by the migration issue is a european matter it is not a bilateral issue and mr erdogan must understand that he cannot threaten greece and europe in an attempt to secure more resources to handle the refugee issue in a lover could never open. but with more migrants reaching greek short in august 2900 minutes any other time in the last 3 years athens also knows the dissolution

needs to be found urgently. ok let's get the very latest on this now dorian jones our correspondent in istanbul good morning dorian president era one was to prevent a new wave of a syrian migrants from entering turkey we saw he has a lot of reasons to do so in that report what does he need from the summit today to get that. well i think he's looking for a sea sation of war airstrikes by the syrian regime forces particularly those targeting civilian areas which is causing this mass movement of refugees on top of that though moscow will counter and say that the only people being targeted is what they say are terrorists who are not covered by the cease fire agreement that was hatched out last year now that the discussion between the 2 sides on who is a terrorist and who is not will be a key part of the discussions today on top of that turkey will be looking for

a guarantees of safety for 12 of its military outposts in syria in the italy province which are there to enforce a buffer zone between syrian regime forces and rebel forces one of those observation posts is now surrounded by syrian forces and others have come under fire tokyo looking for guarantees of safety for those turkish military forces does it look like will be able to get around and russia to play along with that does he have any opportunity there to apply pressure on them or is there any hope that he could achieve that well the turkey is find itself an increasingly difficult situation the the the forces of syrian forces are slowly advancing and there is a feeling that it's only a matter of time before they overrun this last outpost of the syrian reach syrian rebels but turkey does have military forces in this italy province there is a fear that possibly they could be a clash between turkish and syrian forces now moscow iran will be what looking to

avoid that scenario turkey also has forces in other parts of syria so turkey does have some important leverage at the moment ok how is all of this been affecting the situation at the border the syrian push as you mentioned it mentioned in province. well what we're seeing is there is around 3 and a half 1000000 syrians who are trapped in this it live region many of them around half are believed to be people who have fled the fighting in parts of syria and the belief is that the if this real area is finally overrun by syrian forces these people have nowhere to go but towards turkey there is already reports around half a 1000000 refugees are now building up on the turkish border according to the turkish red crescent and the feeling is that if he'd leave does ultimately fall there will be a mass influx into turkey turkey is strengthening its border wall to prevent that but the feeling is if you have a 1000000 people trying to enter the country they will not be able to stop it and

turkey will be facing a major influx and a humanitarian crisis ok if that comes to pass will air the one as he put it open the floodgates and let more refugees cross into europe well there is this feeling in unca they have around 3 and a half 1000000 refugees syrian refugees in turkey there is growing fatigue in the country one poll said that 80 percent of turks want the syrians gone this is hurting one politically and also feeling the fears that they could be ultimately a social explosion in the country given the rising tensions growing economic problems so the feeling of the moment to give to his european partners is turkey cannot cope with any more refugees or europe has to take its responsibility if they don't then turkey will say has no responsibility but to open its borders door in jones thanks very much for that from istanbul. to zimbabwe now in the remains of former president robert mugabe will be taken to his

home village for a way on monday he died a week ago at age 95 and singapore nearly 2 years after he was ousted from power in a coup his final burials had to take place in about a month and even increase reports were gob a still divides opinion in the country. those preparing extra classes for local children is neighborhoods he's a mass teacher and lives in the village of could tama it's a prestigious address robert mugabe's estate is right next door to our bills little hats he's a fan of the late president. we lived in harmony with the late former president mugabe and he would encourage us to it why education as a teacher he himself was a legend in education he used to employ a lot of young people at his home stands no one on the. moon blooming the national

you know all the roads that you see around you would employ young people to really have to consideration of who is far better connected to the country's infrastructure than most villages in zimbabwe for most of the villages here god is associated with positive memories my inflated we would run into his gate each friday when we would hear sirens of his motorcade he would give us can decent biscuits those were happy moments for us as kids. and many residents are still angry about the coup that removed mugabe from office 2 years ago. but as to who was who was a good leader. barest by the ouster of mugabe he was a good leader even though we have very disappointed with that things are not well in the country you know we feel it could be the manner in which we removed an elder like mugabe from power after 37 years it could be a curse because we are now facing many problems. and no delusions as.

oversaw the complete collapse of the economy and zimbabwe and the country is still reeling from that 3rd of the population is dependent on food aid to survive and the unemployment rate stands at 80 percent. the electricity and water supplies are unreliable at best many who placed their hopes it will grab the successor emerson now see their hopes evaporating analysts say criticism of not god was even in the only thing within his own party despite efforts to repress it. possibly with a. political side to our. generation 4 door the g 4 to the trying to spike to cut into government of president 4 years of reasons which are political then do you also see that even within the ruling party we still have some pockets or for people who are for mugabe even though he's no good.

the conflict has even spreads to the organisation of mugabe's funeral his family wanted to bury him in this home village but the government plan to have them interpret it here as acre and the capital harare the family eventually gave in but the conflict meant the burial was delayed for a month. this is the grave of sally mugabe the ex-wife of robert and we're right next to it he was originally supposed to be buried there still space here but at the moment a muslim is built somewhere close by where he'll be laid to rest in october. in his village of tama local residents plan to say their own final farewell to the late president mugabe's family hopes the common ration will not be mocked by mention of the human rights violations murders of dissidents the economic meltdown and the recent dispute with the government over the burial i think in days. what

do was destroyed this being repealed. you know. if you listen to the press the peace deal if you're out there for i think the legacy it's really been could you give i guess for his former neighbor not is i know to god it will always be the hero who let the country to independence but more important than that is to build a brighter future for zimbabwe. this is deja vu news live from berlin these are our top stories. u.s. president trump says the u.s. could respond militarily into attacks on saudi arabia's oil infrastructure over the weekend intreated the u.s. is locked and loaded and is waiting to hear from riyadh oil prices soaring after the 2 drones swarm strikes using rebels in yemen to claim responsibility but president trump says iran is the black. vote counting is underway
