welcome to the show. i'm nicole fairly j 7 leaders plan talks today to coordinate their approach to syria's rebel leadership. the group of the world's leading industrialized countries is already stated that it would support a government that is inclusive and non sectarian. the rebels are largely in control of their and now and have slaves to protect the rule of law. after years of abuses under, i'll say president bush are all a side and his father a sense of normalcy. slowly returning to many places. just days after the fall of bushel assad government life appears to be returning to normal in the syrian capital of damascus. the curfew imposed on residence after his hours thing. his now being relaxed. shops open again and people out buying clothes and food. so it doesn't tell you about how i could was closed for about 2 days in then we opened again, but just until 5 pm, we had

a courtesy because there were a few robberies. some people had weapons and was shooting at each other. it was a mess. the lot now thing so fine, when i'll feel a little better, we can move around. everything is okay. the last, sorry leave. but as things return to normal, news of some of the most beautiful aspects of the subdivision is emerging hundreds gathered the funeral as well. no, no position activist mazda in a mazda, he died from torture in one of assets notorious prisons. in day he has become a symbol of the hovers that the old government is prepared to inflict on any one who spoke out with you on he was we are

the goose. i thought you would leave prison and speak out. but when i found out he had been executed, my heart was broken to see she was into life. we still don't know what's like going to happen in syria. we are still here, just told people that we will live and that we will prosper and very i will be built again with our own house. they own people. remnants of the old regime are being removed all over the country. the old red, white, and black flag on the shop front is being painted over a metaphor for a country wanting to start to new. or meanwhile, rebel forces backed by turkey are continuing operations in northern syria against the kurdish forces. turkey says the objective is to clear the area of what they

call terrorism. you're a secretary of state antony blinking has met with progress president ridge of type arrow on an anchor to discuss the finding which was threatening to be stabilized. northern syria, the u. s. and her case afford rival groups in the conflict, the target back militia has been finding a curtis loved force that on caresses or terrorist. but the last regards of the syrian for this allies, especially as the bulwark against the power vacuum. last by the fall of star ellis, on it just a month before the by the ministration. hands over to donald trump. i asked our correspondent, dorian, joy jones, what's the point of blankets visit to turkey? what's as well. i see a lot of people here in tuck, you're asking that question um, but having said that, i think washington are arguing, given the urgency of the situation, the, this is, it is vital to achieve goals of a successful transition to a stable, inclusive, searing government. and also to address these ongoing clashes between the tuck

whose back forth is what the story national army and the syrian democratic forces. this put, the code is full, so it is supported by the united states. we have military personnel on the ground in the war against the slamming state and, and containing the slamming site is also another issue that lincoln is here to discuss. given the fact that these families take root and on poor sleeve price on situations of chaos on the, on a power vacuum. and the concern is that that has to be prevented that threat. so i think having said that though this will be a bit of an oak wood in the meeting full of the talk he's president. and i think his counterpart, how come feet are given the fact that the trump administration is only a matter of weeks from coming to power. and any commitments made by blinking are only valid for a month full. so turkey has promised to quote, never allow any weakness to arise in the fight against ices, but some analysts story and believe that what they're doing in serious ne,

is doing precisely, that's why is arrow on willing to take that risk as well. and curse position items position is always being that you invite terrorist with terrorist and on co considered as a simmering syrian democratic. faulty has been affiliated with the cody separate his group, the p k. k, which has been fighting the tuck the state for decades. and he's designated by washington 9, the european union as a terrorist group. and encore, a says that the washington should have nothing to do with such a group. and this poses an x, a central freight to tuck as much as the assignment states. and all of those ones rhetoric is always, we are fighting both the p k k code and the sd of threats and dice the these that make states. so on, chris says this group of support has to end on cruise committed to fighting these nomic states. but washington argues, with the same regret, simmer series, democratic forces of vital to flight this time, expect no, tony, preventing them from seizing this opportunity of this vacuum that possibly

existence here. but also you have to be aware the, to these, the syrian forces, cottage policies are of looking off to prove a, it's not mc state. thousands of islamic state prison has and prisons holding tens of thousands. and if the talk is policies by continued these assaults, the fear is that those prisons will be open and you will have a search of islamic state minutes and some nice thing that. so another key issue on clinton's each end a here is that the advice will to contain the assignment states, right? how would you expect us darkest cooperation on syria to change once donald trump returns to the white house? well i think that that is the key policy for monk for they believe that they will have a formal understanding presidency when trump was previously in power. he was uh, calling for the total with, for one of us forces to in the presence of the syrian, i'm much of the recent statements by trump indicates the same thing that he said to you, i should have nothing to do with sir. they should stay out

a nice thing. the uncle will be waiting till trump comes into about with the hope that he will pull out those us forces. and that will remove one last the optimal for turkey, excuse me, it's going to for moving, but it says, it says stress on looser rambled. so we have corresponding door in jones is doing well, thank you so much. i let's look at some of the other stories making headlines around the world today. ukraine says russia has launched a mass of aerial attack on its power infrastructure. energy administer a german gallows chang, code subs if the attack was taking place across the country. it promised details would be made known when the security situation for minute although this parliament has voted to impose a state of emergency starting next week due to unexpected cut off of russian gas. although by gets rushing natural gas via ukraine to has said, it will not extend its transit contract with russian gas jain, gas from meaning supplies are expected to stop on january 1st,

the georgia is preparing to choose a new president on saturday. it's the 1st time the head of state will be selected by a 300 member college of electors, rather than through direct vote. the incumbent pro is, you president solomon is rubbish, really calls a process illegitimate and says she isn't going anywhere. hundreds of interest of in george i since protest broke out over a decision to halt a membership talks. students have been a driving force of those nightly protests, but many are now worried about the future of the pro e. you movement? no, we use j. gosh, she one of the reports from but to me it feels empty outside and inside the compass thing, but to me and then and many of our students of roman and english technology, they are among many who have chosen to boy classes. so normally this is the busiest

but also for us. it's the same. i mean, i'm losing a protest they do for some, it's an exciting task. we disagree with this to think of the electric generator and the power and the sound system for all those products are ordered here with the why the government holes firm it is unfair to where this process is heading and how the political process in georgia could do results curing but to be people are gathering every evening just like in the capital peak is also taking a total of them every georgians tvs in all which. 2 are purchasing every day are thinking about. 2 feeling a tired or a feeling helpless, even like every every,
