nato as a threat turkish and russian troops are now patrolling a so-called safe zone in northern syria where turkey wants to resettle its syrian refugees. this area is now under moscow's control russian military police made their way into the north syrian border town of kabbani on wednesday. u.s. troops had withdrawn from the region earlier abandoning their kurdish allies and making way for their nato partner turkey to lead a military incursion into the area. a move that faced harsh international criticism nato however has been reluctant to criticize the so efforts of their allies in brussels general secretary voiced concern and called for international effort there war has been there for years we have seen hundreds of thousands of people being killed at the us it is so there's a need for progress for for

a political negotiated solution now russia which is not a member of nato has become turkey's closest ally in an attempt to implement a military solution as part of a deal struck between the leaders of turkey and russia they seek to create a buffer zone in the formerly kurdish held border region and german tornado fighter jets could be part of a greater international effort to stabilize the area this is according to a recent plan by a german defense minister and he could come she wants to take berlin's commitment even further. my 1st look is this via my suggestion is that we set up an internationally controlled security zone and valving turkey and russia one time but soon learned a suggestion that took many by surprise back home in germany and brussels the proposal was met with interest by the nato chief i welcomed nato allies proposals on how to move forward how to find a political solution and of course a political solution how to win old in wall all actors on the ground but this

proposal just might be too little too late russia one of the actors on the ground has made clear already that it rejects berlin's vision of a security zone in northern syria. while could the german call for u.n. troops patrolling the so-called safe zone be an option let's talk now with mideast analyst mark as they call for more on that good morning markel. marcus sar there turkey russia are now in command of events on the ground in northern syria why would either of them allow international troops on to territory that they control. they could allow it definitely say could because they would need partners to patrol an area which is 480 kilometers long 30 kilometers wide it's a big area where turks and russians alone might not have the possibility to control it all and one wary important thing not to forget is syria with its troops once you

go into this area an area where the kurds why p.g.a. is they are enemies of syria and of turkey and to control this area to bring peace there you might need more international troops than on the turkey and russia you see german troops heading into this safe zone it would be a very big step for germany germany is in iraq as kurdistan with troops to help the kurdish authorities there to send german troops into syria bring the debate into the german politics which has not been seen which would be a major step for germany to send actually troops into the middle east ok well the u.s. president has given his full support to this russian turkish deployment let's take a look too at what he had to say. this was an outcome created by us the united states and nobody else by the moves that we've made we are achieving a much more peaceful and stable area between turkey and syria including

a 20 mile wide safe zone. what do you make of this new positioning of the u.s. and what does it mean for washington's presence in the middle east well 1st of all claiming to have reached as the agreement is a joke trump week ago announced that american troops are not going to be in syria any longer so to claim that their agreement between russia and turkey is a u.s. agreement it's not worth the words he has said so the americans out of there the russians and the turks that's the new situation on the ground and this is what trump is trying to hide ok the americans are maintaining someone of a troop position though in syria where american troops redeploy into inside syria they're deploying to the north east of syria where a lot of the oil fields and they are there to protect the oil fields from being attacked by the islamic state again together with the kurds so you have a kurdish american small alliance still on the ground but the major trend is

america is not only leaving syria but is giving up the middle east as the whole region to russia as the new major power in the region ok to the questions about russia also touch on nato as far as nato is concerned looking at a completely new military realignment turkey engaged in a sophisticated patrolling operation with russian troops now russia is of course nato arch rivals why nato was created in the 1st place what does this say about the coherence of the nato alliance right now and nato is not as stable anymore as it was before and this turkish russian alliance which is forming right now has already given signs of breaking down of turkey being reliable inside nato so this russian alignment with turkey might defeat turkey inside made over this is not

a sign of stability of this side of weakness for nato ok mark to speckle that he's i was forced to say thanks very much for that marcus thank you. well turkey advanced into northern syria last week to eject a kurdish militia which ankara considers a terrorist organization at least 160000 ethnic kurdish civilians were uprooted as the turkish our army and its allied arab militias moved in we have this report now from a syrian town near the border with turkey. a few boxes and some clothes that is all they could rescue from the house and russell i know after days of bombing a classroom is the new having their old one is now just rubble shaka to his family found shelter in this school with dozens of others mostly kurdish refugees from russell i'm a border town is now under the control of the turkish army and the allied malicious . lies there joe know when they leave our homeland we will

return to turkey and their allies have come to plunder they don't want to rebuild they want to destroy. its ears like things that feed those fears this video is alleged to show militias allied to turkey showing off a kurdish woman they've taken captive as if she were the spoils of war. one of many war crimes that the islamist fighters stand accused of they're set to take control of the buffer zone between russell i'm anti by yet under turkish surveillance. for the refugees from the region this is a terrifying prospect. of. you know the forces intervening there's no way we could continue living there so these armed groups are radical islamist fanatics and loyal only to turkey in the.

north of here and the fear comes from experience islamist militias invaded our freend on turkey's behalf in march last year i heard with 3 they paid dearly for it after $58.00 days of bombing displacement and death the new masses introduce sharia law in the northwestern province of syria human rights experts say tolerance and rights for minorities are being ignored is keeping a free. and if at all in offering women cannot walk the streets without wearing islamic dress there is violence against religious minorities especially against the christian minorities who are mostly converts but also against the yazidi is on the alawite scene and that was asking the let least 17 years xeni and alawite towns have been destroyed and to shoot at what and. many kurds are worried that history will repeat itself in common they're protesting against
