interests as a new seeks a common strategy against inspiration coronavirus. anatomy howard thanks for joining us tensions continue to mount on the greek border with turkey as thousands of migrants seek to into europe in an interview great prime minister kiriakou s. it's a tough case said the deal between turkey and the e.u. to stop the flow of migrants was quote did. upright president trichet tied to one earlier told germany's chancellor angela merkel the deal was no longer working and must be revised footage shows volleys of tear gas and stun grenades being fired across the border fires were burning on the turkish side of the border which break official said willet by migrants. police earlier act migrants massed in the border

some migrants responded by throwing rocks migrants of told they doubly the turkish authorities are ordering them to leave the no man's land because the free border won't open. well earlier i spoke to jerrold kelsey's a migration expert specialist rather who's considered the architect of the original a utility deal that has been shaken in recent days he told brady to save the deal that europe must do more to help migrants stuck on the camps on the greek islands so they can house we're seeing pictures every day of thousands of people at the turkish great border and you've calls now for every new will of the e.u. tekkie migration deal what would that look like well since the deal was a simple non-binding statement based on interests would we need to do is find another statement based on the interests of all the key players turkey greece the

e.u. not to forget the interests of refugees and migrants so what we call for is something similar from what happened in march 2016 if you build on what worked you repair and improve what didn't work and you find a win win win solution for refugees greece and you and turkey and one of the main points that you think you need improving on. well what has worked is the support for syrians in turkey i mean this has been the most generous project in the history of the e.u. we're funding the integration of refugees in a 3rd country and it's well deserved turkey has the most refugees in the world and 680000 children go to school as a result of this 1700000 people get social support what hasn't worked has been the . protests reception conditions on the greek guidance the extremely slow asylum procedures. we shouldn't just blame greece we should find

a plan with some european countries and greece together can implement the agreement on the islands and that requires also helping greece by relocating refugees from the mainland to other european countries one thing that we've been hearing especially from german politicians in recent days is that germany shouldn't be blackmailed by turkey what do you see as the potential consequences for germany and the e.u. member states if the e.u. fails to come to an agreement internally and also with turkey i've had a lot of meetings with politicians in the last few days and i think most of them recognize that this agreement was very much in the interest of germany as a major country of destination just as it is very much in the interest of greece without this agreement greece on the scene to gnc has only 2 options one is every both to the rise in the next year we're lending greece and everybody to len's and

greece will stay in greece. or greece breaks international law engages in life threatening push back operations with life rafts and small boats full of refugees including children. to terrify them from coming that will not work it would be illegal and it would mean the refugee convention drowns this he ended so in order to have an acceptable choice we need an agreement based on principles that involve being able to return anyone who doesn't need protection be you but that also involves supporting the country that has most refugees in the world and to be honest my sense is that in germany most people most politicians and most people understand this other european countries might feel that they are not concerned nobody comes to these countries and so perhaps they just don't want to pay for refugees in turkey. that was gerald now is the architect of the original migration

deal between turkey and the european union speaking to the. brady bill in syria a shaky cease fire has failed to bring stability to it lead a human rights monitor says 15 people have been killed in clashes between syria's government forces and the rebel fighters in the south of the province russia and turkey brokered the deal days ago but in intentions to diffuse tensions have failed to bring home with displaced people questioning the point of the cease fire if they still can't return home. on his more on how this latest ceasefire is being received in. a semblance of normality has returned to it live for now but a military deescalation is not an ideological one a programmable sign with the turkish flag hangs in the city center. many locals see the turkish military as the only power that can protect them from the syrian army

there's deep distrust of bashar assad's regime people in it lead fear it will violate the cease fire. was a moderate but i'm not at all optimistic about this agreement i don't expect anything from it these people won't respect it. lay don't feel assured by this agreement. that doesn't inspire any hope. the signs peace hope is what they need most a political solution is not yet in sight. after thursday's cease fire agreement president assad made it clear who he thinks should take the 1st step. when allowed wanted in light of turkish aggression our goal together with russia is for turkey to change its policy and stop supporting terrorists so our relations can get back to normal. but normality is still a long way off for the millions displaced in northern syria at least they can receive aid more easily with a ceasefire if it holds. now let's take
