7:07 pm
the republicans who of course of said for months that president obama is health care reforms should have been repealed the government should not be in the business of this kind of legislative in debt but it's been a very un comfortable few days the president obama and they are all more accurate. thank you very much. simon simon monster forcing from washington. now get this herald a major shift in egypt's foreign policy russia's foreign ministry said in a non profits in cairo was content the highest level visit to egypt by a russian delegation he is the tool supposedly including possible on sales that can be read as much as team billion dollars. they sat few weeks up to no time at night the u s cox defense aid to egypt our correspondent catherine state the house. it's sweet we see a light rain check

7:13 pm
debates before we kick off tonight's discussion says given updates on the day's events with pat williams in some ninety six presidential power as russia's foreign and defence ministers may delay a visit to egyptian counterparts liar wants to be surprised if a mosque at the beach its foreign minister denied trying to substitute the united states as the country's key night their relationship with russia is not releasing any other relationship. russia is much more important than being a replacement for another nation. we are looking for tok operation which would be beneficial for both egypt and russia it was according to some egyptian media. the ministers discussed on steel sweat favor of any new eyes. he tipped to save the union lost on an ice until the nineteen seventies when climbing may constitute the us after washington helped broker a peace deal with israel. the u s a since egypt's top financial impact the relations of fulton says
7:14 pm
the army tells you the tips best democratically elected president tonight. last month the us frozen chunk of its domenici aid budget to eat it rumors are true to its two seats about twenty week old news to the fact that in the world today we should leave the house behind standard in the present is for users. stick approach each nation needs to assess for itself. nations need to decide to ally themselves with. russia's prime minister also said he supports the transition from any tree road to democracy in egypt thai rath mundine much and cannot stop it if i may and the sudan to the foreign minister says i do seeking to divest a fine i'd support its alliances or is it waiting to see if it's healthy to upset at the expense of washington well i think this is a really interesting time for this discussion because well i think what we're seeing
7:15 pm
here is the egyptians acting on three different level strategic diplomatic and domestic strategic level at d it's no secret that the egyptian army has been looking to be a regional arms dealer and sell any sort of weapons deal that may increase the kind of technology transfer that would allow for such a thing to happen. is it is just a bonus. um the end is certainly that the weapons arms film has that kind of potential but on the diplomatic front. we've seen at you know that this is the highest rain in the us and if your elation in a long time. perfectly with the recent actions of the obama administration. and so this is kind of a jealous kristin away. with the idea of spreading with the russians to really kind of pressure to the united states to restore its relationship with the agent to the extent possible. but also displays it extremely well domestically. hmm it be if the egyptians as certainly
7:16 pm
shared this this is in a phobia towards the americans that the city you know the ins and any kind of reaching out to other world powers shows a kind of independence of this interim government. that can only strengthen its backing. and when jordan and tyre oven coated and generous trade stands even this is just the sink that any distance and the russians or the thing this isn't about the real concrete shift in policy. i would sue you the good the food from first instance is to be too jealous so to move on the part of the egyptians it's an attempt to try to get united states to its star crowd was insane um restore some of the aid and frozen. and two and two tried to get washington to move beyond some of its concerns about the immediate human rights situation and to restore the military relationship. the details of the next few days if there are any about the outlines of a possible deal. i think i
7:17 pm
will suggest whether or not there is something concrete here in egypt egypt's forgets that the egyptians are prepared to put up serious money to buy russian weaponry and depending on the weaponry that will be a real signal to washington that maybe there is a bit of a shift here. but you have to take into account. given the amount of time in nine of money. the degree of indoctrination of the egyptian officer corps in particular. and it was the technological transfers that have already occurred to egypt would be made by the end of connection that that military training of all officers army in the united states spent a lot to spend a lot of money and a lot of time. training the egyptian officers in the us the facilities. so egyptian egyptian military is much more adept at working with united states and hence the one that's that is was one of the main selling point in making egypt one of
7:18 pm
the first major non nato allies won that category was created in the nineteen nineties so egypt is much more in terms of its military aligned to the united states and than ever before. so. it would have to take a lot i think for this to be a serious for a quantum shift towards russia in terms of its weapons systems. but as we have seen in saudi arabia and some other countries that have sources coming from different suppliers. it's not inconceivable that they may decide the egyptians may decide to choose two three weapons systems and begin to introduce russian weaponry to make clear to washington that they're serious about the need to diversify not dependent on them i've come to feel taken advantage of this is a direct result of the nicest is causing se of that day at la mama was even
7:19 pm
more of a long time but is most certainly more sadly its short term policy in a completely agree with mr jordan's the analysis of the situation. at this point it's too difficult to see anything in the long term and indeed the training of the egyptian officers by the americans is a an anchor of american policy and american interests in egypt however i do say it will continue in the short term up obviously it's just a move by the egyptian government to get america's attention however like to see another sign mention as well russia is a symbol of stability in egypt is searching for stability at this point russia has been consistent in its policy. it hasn't been popular. in the world opinion. they say in regard to sin because of syria. but for a government looking for stability with russia has proven is that it is
7:20 pm
consistent and will back its allies. the other hand america. especially in egypt recently has been flip flopping up. it has a first aid and supported of the egyptian military government. then it started supporting insurgents in a very ambiguous way van the united states the ropes we need something else we have gone too far. so what is its ban today course the huge action government. it's not clear at least other must be some more clarity in russia with the russians at least in the minds of certain egyptian government numbers and decision makers eyed at the end that run then use the ima since the debate for us tonight. the new nation to visit between that russia needed this one actually goes back decades and then the relationship that the breakdown on the sundance and again in the nineteen seventies. this current mood
7:21 pm
they do get the question what you think was is and what i was thinking the same thing the same to battle the soul. i just an fsc is a guide jason and then down the distance and decided that i would pay with the americans along with us he is. now it's time to eat a meal at le depend on the russian i got to go the course. didn't know i think a commodity a day of previous two speakers that the peas more all for signaling may be due to the united states and the guys we have other options. and isn't that there are fake. it's something that might come out the free market and you don't have the money to pay for a billion or so. when i did it a new weapons from their weapons that from work or russia. so there is one
7:22 pm
possibility that they think is a hoax it is that it does not treat the other thing the other possibility is that the saudis have already promised the egyptian military that day we take a day a price tag to the snail and they would pay for it which i don't think we have been in a minute of it due to the needs some spare parts from the russians. danes kerfuffle in there and it got me suddenly sped up for a day or a aging equipment to reach the studios and is being student effective. they again said the insurgents and cyanide. so there might be in a small and it just a sidenote to the american congress or the congressman and set of doors for president obama to go beyond and in the paint some may
7:23 pm
armstrong says some names or as a chemical to transfer to do he did it so it is a warning to them. it's no good if you go to a flyer would ease pressure. they'll we might put a full tool to a strengthening relations with russia. i don't betray their friends the way the americans do i pay the same time repairing them close to president obama at a k nine s and i mean if that's the kinda numb of the main and the ninety six has been on beginning at around one point three billion dollars in aid to eat it every single hit for the last to see if they caught up by a few hundred million at recently and that it is being described as a signal as that as a kind of leverage point and now it's coming back in the neck is catchy theme they will react to this blog and i think the reaction will be inferred based on what the egyptians than to actually commit to buying
7:24 pm
from the russians again being up on certain places or even made a meaning to some of the numbers and bandied about for two million dollars in off of some sort of deal with the russians by god knows what that would entail my guess would be those that it's it's going to be some spiffy is that it proves to be true. it's gonna be a set of weapon systems that are going to be. a lot of time for the egyptians to absorb. on a train are going to have to basically re orient a part of their military backed was russia in order to spread out the scientists at washington and baghdad me that i can find out upon this and i can do on the heels of what to think how deep in the above administration will will will react to that. that meant i did not think the obama administration will first the full talk to the egyptians to try for school to talk them out of it and an end to reiterate that the fundamental message which is that if egypt wants to have its arms relationship
7:25 pm
resumed with washington. it's going to have to take certain basic political steps didn't quite depressed again. in fact what she'll probably try to use this as a pretext to pound even harder on the military regime to get the political process. back in order in egypt so that all the political tendencies and trends in the country are fully represented in. the we returned to a civilian leadership. i was so well so often it has and will do it there's another problem also a mystery show i just said that egypt may not be able to afford to buy the weapons from russia that might be true however was not free yet the following question can the united states at this point to afford to continue to aid to egypt and the egyptians are realizing that so the american budget is anything in dire straits at this point. plus let's not forget this time internet where i work and what pollan what foreign policy in the united states afford
7:26 pm
nowadays tie and untie my mind and it is kind of price wise is that the intentions of getting something from the daily intensive increase leverage. towards the united states. other options. one of my getting from this tale while the second time they've just comment on the on the actual hands i'd like to agree with the tv speakers up and the fact that to. yes the egyptian economy is in such dire straits right now the question of financing is the real question. it ended. this is just another element that comes into this and that we haven't spoken about so far and that is the goal. the gulf and the russians have serious tensions over what's happening in serie a right now and that syria is going to play a major part on as to whether or not this kind of deal will happen particularly given the gulf financing of the egyptian budget that the current moment. i find it really unlikely that the saudis would want to give the russians any kind of
7:27 pm
victory in the region particularly given this confrontational stance on the rollers the appellant's of the masses will say something to the saudis the mistake that an amendment that to my question will once and for the russians well the russians certainly have their own tensions with the united states. they know how close the u s siege egypt relationship has been and there more than happy to poke at that to try and get the united states to pay attention to them and say hey listen we are still relevant and we can be a problem that we can be a thorn in your side in this region. or it could be a signal by russia to say that they could be brokers also and maybe arrange something in syria that russia can count as an intermediary as well. i love the spectacle of a practical reason for wanting to do this is why i'm singing about the bed then there are any maple place in the mediterranean and toughest have to say about overseas now in trouble that
7:28 pm
there are reports of the thinking of anyone any good. we now give everyone a free not to say. although the word for me to imagine that egypt is going to want a political step of food we are getting b if the russians access to the naval facilities again with a they went through that before the change in the relationship with the former soviet union back in the seventies and eighties it appears that there's another element here which i don't think anybody should lose sight of and that is russia is a major supplier of weapons throughout the world. and this is potentially another deal i mean i think that we cannot exclude the business aspect of this too i mean its billions in potentially billions of dollars hundreds of millions of dollars in hard currency earnings for russia. which is gnosis which is no small deal. i mean either of their number places around the world. with the russians have gone in trying to sell weapons in addition to gaining some sort of political influence. so you know before market like egypt. why not. and you know
7:29 pm
if if if if if the same time the driver blew the benefit of these of the washington all the better. that run i decided it was coming through so many days. yes i think the russians the main aim your main goal in the small these two. the group to produce truck digi scraping that bi polar world in which not only the united states is the warranty there but got told world leaders that is russia or months i've been doing that the state's own wants and it seems that their support both the show on sunday in syria is working for disney and then there was debate over the chemical weapons if syria that gave them that being pushed forward in this respect that they can become a world leader in no doubt they are exploiting the success and trying to push it farther
7:30 pm
more on the run and get the seat of the private sector celebrate will be back but the second part of the post i have to make but after that stay with us. my tuition cos i kept the bag believers in tonight's discussions with an international headlines it may sound. elaine has arrived in the philippines in the wake of typhoon high and officials have been forced to bury thousands of victims in mass graves. the death toll has now been revised up to four thousand four hundred and sixty. many sublime is still in desperate need of emergency relief. and of cos i don't have as citizens not to risk than the life of another hostage taking in africa. french creek hills london based received in northern cameroon has been no claim of responsibility as
7:31 pm
yet. it's a miserable for current and planned to operate in the area and full table of a failed in court in connection with a deadly fire at the hotel paris opera in two thousand and five it was the best in a series of places including buildings when i can pull harness the house twenty four people were killed in afghanistan killed and those facing charges of involuntary muscle taking place. i miss all the hen house. bank at the plate with disgusting mindful in relations between moscow and higher and old friends in a relationship has been on the back than a decade for me says that as a high ranking delegation visits time at the pool to play as a non still went to a million dollars on the table and china meet to discuss that's not really into it and a former official of the year at stake the comments on a concept assistant professor at the american team events the parents instead of being an ra and then decide is from whining these pants in one sentence night i read when he's from vietnam to council
7:32 pm
i thank you ma'am it's the dt will and i must enter into the south. i am undefeated how you've been making and some of the online jackson and some of the car and left for the story today i need to make up for a philosophically wickets with su's to science. it warms up once with cq the reactions that are fairly makes the people are of course focusing on this new tree aspect that you can see photos. the report says he gets in russian talks in newark in collaboration with some reactions just stopping stayed to come right that people are mad at me taking the view that we are starting to get to the stage where and it seems like a bomb since given up pieces hunted to eat it over to the russians and that other clemente says it's a key insight will i possibly can say that one guy his sake and have mixed pretend to be somewhere else or you can jam and subtle that the jets have spent that night obama talking about it. sad sad i can't someone to make someone else into all this is
7:33 pm
something that isn't the key to the south that we have been in the menu to bring him back into that kind of labels the only person in that the people are starting to talk about it and so this love triangle most of the bt have and that one person in tents in the same that you know mom sandy to see dr coleman he's going to solving the crisis in syria which is not interested in doing for sharing the same position that if they honestly think about that. i mean however that none of us and he didn't eat it and even a position on the concrete the syrian people who believe in egypt but in the entire middle east that there is still tremendous sympathy for russia it's a cultural thing and that includes the young generation is won't and don't even remember not say of war it is an outside of the father in law when russia was really eerie presence there has been fixed and ten i love the sights of space and talking about is this is just a small snapshot here but in saying that they both russia and egypt are pitching for the diplomatic solution
7:34 pm
the review these talks to go ahead so i decided to sing we are cited feeling a bit of cumin and he wants me to what i'm going to get the circle of had that sees the diplomatic initiative when it comes to a serie a and b not to say that both the pm had been the chemical gas on the chemical weapons to some intense than they think that's correct which shows that one of their movies might be to show that they can be brokers they have supported the shah to the side showing on one hand my ally right or wrong the other hand that they have also shown that discussions and negotiations are still possible therefore which replaces them the russians as a possible broker in any deals between the united states the middle easterners and in other forces. i'm thinking that in addition to the mc of the relationship that seem that. hi there were a keen sense of foreign policy the huffington post is also drawing attention to the fact
7:35 pm
that egypt and russia are really strange is that very very cool signs that for twenty years back and then head back in their sixties tv and they're pointing us towards the us from online at least as silly as a series of photos that you have a silly act as i'm in jail sentence in hiding and able to go back in sixty four instead of being on the at with the beehives that if god that ye have i add and german cosmonaut and cosmonauts a ten seat of hughes and he welcomes the heat it's on of course lots of forces defeat to school. sources tell that all senior and russian and thirty s and meeting with senior agency officials that it enables the forces of the celebrations that had once for tulips to the construction over the last one done and that was an important project to help him with that irrigation and an empire of koreans in chief but yet so the sentence and this is the conduct of a head start on building
7:36 pm
the dale steyn just told me that the media are abt half the schools intertwined history since december minding is all about fact it was only after last tuesday that policy shift occurs within the prison. more so that he may be due to someone who warranted that the russians sad sad thinking that isn't russian them at their senses i feed it to me towards that goal could seal so that was then that the foreign policy shift and came out outlet and again and then ron dennis die on that point and that's it would just been talking about the russian agent they are all kinds of course. adt is a russian homes and to fight israel and in a new ruling and is ready will add dean thinks that and that the russians and the egyptians becoming kind of see again is making some people in it down that path no not that or move the country. and he really is there more nervous about defective did the egyptians go sophisticated american their weaponry. the rather then they would get there
7:37 pm
they are russian they're welcome to the weaponry of the all russia can provide you with some may the aircraft and unto me sign in the science that can impair the israeli air force to be the key tool for eighty in case of war as directed in case a fork but i don't think that that if anyone has read these two nervous about that first the floor because these days. they said no of course will be tween the egyptians and the and the russians these it is not likely to take place at a time. i don't want to spoil the due to be a spoiler but did not know. their rations of supporting shiite war or on a bike who existed among the shiites say they did and on the white regime which is
7:38 pm
paid by day tsunami. they move them weren't saying that they did it. he's huge in terms of mine who are more secure about my. they tend to go towards the russian or strike a deal with the russians. this note is that a core assumptions. this means that the senior division two and the americans. they are. it all looks at the moment but the saudis will not permit the egyptians go too far there are a disease that proper snow we did when they wind is so good with there with directions that i have read at night and i'm becoming its debts. his timing that i can in it coming up again and again when dry. chemistry one new
7:39 pm
supply of milk. this of these deaths of these up between the need for egyptian soil for the gp and four. they are paying no floor for a week for four or him for everything that a jeep deadly desperately needs the egyptians were not doing anything you may not. that really angered some things i've had ideas of what comes up again and again and the dangers of any antibodies alms and this is old and i think that puff puff piece in people timing other people to the snow the next day. i'm betting has attacked in the increase isn't about us the foreign policy in the region in your final pieces on the outcome of a sad tone mccain is the same as the use of the classic style hits compare john kerry to the human wrecking ball of this piece in the atlantic and is saying that there are not sure if this is based on the miley cyrus on tuesday night on our blog whenever i tell you this in the end of
7:40 pm
the dollar has been a human wrecking ball and very disappointing season he's is going on say it's a ticket to science. several of ted kennedy's the city and trips abroad this is the whole policy in the middle east and is in such disarray. he's never seen anything like this before in his life. he's sad and just got to the incredulous never flying into me and talking with a k hits eighty arabia going to use it to praising steps towards democracy. i knew saying that if america doesn't leave stand the bad guy is willing things historical fact it's the way io critical based only him but it's an eye than to say thank you that much of my neck. and then lay on that speak of meal plan and take. asking about the plight of the fun of it is making about how this has attracted a lot of criticism and about us foreign policy i mean ironically prison obama began his presidency knee deep in the making space now it's being seen by some as the centerpiece of a policy just in case you get to know that involved a motif in that
7:41 pm
sense. i think it's fair i would go even further and say they think in many ways the chickens are coming home to roost for washington as far as its policy in the middle east. one of those single features of the obama administration has been. it's a relative the withdrawl from the region in terms of having any kind of vision strategy or framework for its policy the core issues that are important to the united states takes remain the same energy security. the security the state of israel and fighting against extremism terrorism and any other forces that might upset the stability of it but that approach has not taken into account things like the arab spring. it has not taken into account various the thing has not been able to adapt well let's put it that way too situations like this to a what were seen in syria. it has not been able to adequately respond to what's happening in egypt to be able
7:42 pm
to use its leverage to ensure that that process plays out peacefully in terms of the uprising. and the ultimate coup d'etat against president morrissey elected president of egypt and hence i think you know it's it's actually true i mean you go on to talk about iranian woman talk about saudi arabia to go and talk about the turkeys and. other issues. but the point is the secretary kerry. in three act of going out to the region and trying to patch things together. but in my view what he has tended to demonstrate. it's less of that that that that activity is is motivated by strategy or bio coherent vision of how things ought to be. rather it is. it's a panicked response to a region the united states bbq is out of control sincerity of that thing for

egyptians it's an eye on independent all moms states have sought to boston and miami. this isn't about him and they are seeking to divest five of them soak into the mountains and i also think the saudi sun sank a can in fact ink and then democracy is a as a means towards democracy would still feel now. well actually i think that the transition to democracy has more to do far more to do domestically with the band then their international relations. i mean of course as any country's right to diversify their their international relations and that that's yet to be a gift. and the fact that the egyptians art are flirting with the russians as it is not a problem and of itself. but it's really be the russians are not going to be a force that will push for human rights and democracy inside egypt and russia said it themselves they don't want to get involved in an age domestic politics and who honestly who can blame them we've seen

the american pressure. he is working in egypt because dominik every he's looking to the military. or to the security establishment in the united states i would not go beyond that bad theres been a lot going on between the united states and egypt so don't miss this then build on this server is the reason of going on between the united states and engaging. i haven't seen a quaint ideas in the united states still i decided that on an infant but that will put on any tips. i think the unisys excise lot of influence in particular sectors. i'll agree whether as a calling that they are definitely the military military relationship is really the cornerstone of the united states in a relationship and it's about communication that where where the united states can it be an exert that kind of influence. when you get into domestic politics big it's
7:48 pm
far more messy far more complex. i don't think the united states wants to support a coup against a democratically elected president but it's dealing with multiple forces right now that's kind of cornering its foreign policy in this area it and i absolutely agree if there is more coherent strategy something back to work they could work for the new us policy might be better. situated at it to work towards that goal towards democratic traditions but i did the obama administration has clearly gotten so frustrated so frustrated. obama himself even sat at the un general assembly that he made his taking his cousins take a step back to simplify his priorities in the region. but that doesn't mean that things still aren't going on behind the scenes and partly. if any other country has spoken up about human rights. about the treatment of women etc i don't know about it two

remarks and one that up. is that she didn't. it's not only the military you need to be friends with. if you want an influence in the middle east and egypt in particular there's the population. also to take into account in right now. it's very good to have friends in the egyptian military that there's a population where up a whole part of it is. this frustrated because they're muslim president has been ousted by a coup is another population and that is frustrated because we're back to a military regina that the good one. in the first place in the second remark is that precisely this is why i like your agree with mr rudd wanted it's not a strategy that we needed for egypt we you know. speaking as an american. what we need is a real policy with the vision as you have said earlier tonight i just say i think there's another aspect of the switch of people may not

outside president of the decadence in the phrase in us politics is that the music biz is in us foreign policy nor using the guise of science the release of the ruins of the pushback from the opposition party to what the president of united states is supposedly laying down as the policy of the us yes that is somewhat unprecedented. because even though we saw this under george w bush. there was serious opposition to the iraq war. it was. it was initially rather muted. and indeed it took a backseat to majority sentiment in favor it is not generally in. dna of american politicians to question the executive in the conduct of key foreign policy issues but to get back to points on another set made the administration in washington has followed has this was basically drifted and not provided. the vision and leadership. and as all the eggs are set policy framework for anybody to really understand what

washington's objectives are other than short term management of one of a region that seems to be in crisis then in an amicable winding down on a us defence in this part of the wealth and if so what are they in texas honestly i don't know but i really really completely agree with william jordan here it's completely unprecedented. there was a discipline. everyone in congress was behind the president and foreign policy especially in difficult times and times of instability in the for the first time. opposition that expresses itself not only in domestic policies but dana very far or long way as you said. in foreign policy and that is certainly not good for the image of the united states abroad and that's. russia does russia have many unique policy itself the remains to be seen but they're certainly using that opportunity it sits unopened acre them. diane this article about what's happening inside a fit them in. how much people. they'll
