send i'm chante a reminder of our top stories t this hour at nine pm paris time. the russian ministry begins patrolsls on the syrian border this is part of an agreement clinchehed the tacy not dadavies up control of ththe nortrtheast of the country. donald trump calling the accord a quote major breakthrough. tools are reportedly underway for a government shake up eleven nonsense in a bid to defuse some precedents in protest against. the political elite i mean when does paralyzed the country for a week do stay tuned for analysis coming up from matt. hi yeah

yeah of the carnegie middle east center. was a coming up this so i'm from twenty four you members agreed in principle to the spend the day to phrase it beyond okay but the thirty first. the block however has not set a new date orange johnson for his part. is only up a snap general election . thank you for watching l live from paris w we start with russian forces which have boasted that presence a across northeastern serious this.s. afternoon code was clinched by ankara and moscow in a bid to and turkish attack on the area. the agreement also requires kurdish figighters consider to e terrorists by turkey t to pull back this willllay forces t the. to relinquish control of somee of the main towns donald trump

meanwhile has hailed the agreement. a big success. early this mornining the government of turkey informed by administration that they would be stopping combat. and their offensive in syria. and making the ceasefire permanent and it will indeed be permanent. however you would also. define the word permanent in that part of the world is somewhat questionable we all understand that but i do believe it will be permanent. i therefore instructed the secretary of the treasury to lift all sanctions imposed. on october fourteenth. in response to turkey's original offensive moves against the kurds in serious northeast border region. of course donald trump early announcing that washington would be lifting all sanctions against tacky his comments coming after that ceasefire agreement is terry that we just spoke about the financial punishments- anchoring student as the reimposition of 50%

tariffs on take your still. arrogant guy has more. donald trump has declared what he called a major breakthrough in the middle east the u. s. present revealing that turkey will permanently end its offensive against kurdish forces in northeast syria. i therefore instructed the secretary of the treasury to lift all sanctions imposed for october fourteenth. in response to turkey's original offensive moves against the kurds in serious northeast border region should turkey fail to honor its obligations including the protection of religious and ethnic minorities. which i trulyy believe t they will do we reserve the right to reimpose crippling sanctions safe zone but donald trump's speech also signaled a major u us policy shift in the middle east despite bipartisan criticism over his decision to withdraw all american troops from the region effectively permitting the turkish offensive. some defended the move even

encouraging other nations to intervene in the region in the absence of the united states. how many of our kids must die in the middle east. in the midst of these ancient sectarian. and tribal conflicts. after all of the precious blood and treasure america has poured into the- deserts of the middle east i am committed to pursuing a different course one that leads to victory for america. president trump added a limited number of american troops would remain in his own to secure oil fields. and as for who will fill the void after kurdish fighters are removed from turkey so called safe zone. turkrkish a and russian forces l jointly patrol the surrounding areas largely dashing kurdish hopes of self rule in northeastern syria. turning our attention to lebanon where tens of thousands of protesters took

to the streets once again this wednesday. these are the largest demonstrations the country has seen in fourteen years with many calling on the government to step down and- i have been reports of domenici and police forces attacking crowns. the movement continues despite prime minister side had eighty proposing a series of economic reforms now idea sources told reueuters news agency that lebanese leaders are. discussing a possible government reshuffle that's now cross life to my high yeah yeah for analysis on this on going story shshe's aa direction of fe carnegegie middle east center on the- she joinsns us of course from berry thanknk you soo much for. being with us my heart rate to being blocked we see the use of violence and force against the protests as- a reform package was presented do you think this capititan shel cabinet. reshuffle could appease the protesters in a way. good evening thank you for having me- i'm not so sure the

problem is that with every step- the government seems to be behind the protesters so it's- it's a bit. and i didn't too late. i sometimes it's not an answer the economic plan has actually some important. and reform proposals but they were too late and these being proposed three months ago or even three weeks ago. we wouldn't be where we are today and i'm afraid that's what the cabinet should reshuffle we may also be in this position. if they wait too long it's already may be too late for that. the street is way ahead of them. they're demanding no less that and the- receptors ignition of the prprime minister the entire cabinets- and somebody even going as far as asking for the resignation of the president himself. now you just mentioned and reiterated several times thth i may be a case of too little too late to need to opt out of you as well photos he is it not too. simplistic. to boil

this down to this what sap tax. obscenity it's the one time and he was just sleeping point- and this is going to build up over the last. few months if not the last few years. but particularly this year- people are seeing there in the economic situation and not decline. their standards of living on the line for which easily beats unemployment is increasing particularly among the- educated you. are and although the policy so i would say a year- there's been increasing. threat off. possible devaluation of the detainees zero now should this evaluation happen and in the last few weeks and the build up to this- we sold the lebanese xerox exchange rates are going up on the black market- courses and started should. lead off beat evaluated- then we are

going to see a- dramatic decline and the sounds of the standards of living for substantial portion of lebanese their stay would be seeing their- pensions disappear their life savings disappear already many of them are struggling. one tiny indicator ac at the-e- ministry of education announced that they've had an 18%8% increase in enrollment in families can no longer s sendhee their afford to send their children to private schools which is usually the school of choice for many families. so now they're e sending them to te cheaper public school. absolutely roger that because i don't have a lot of time left to ask all the questions so i'm at you've just given us the less the plethora of economic issue something that's trending across the region why is it then that some observers are

saying that. these protests are not your regular middle east uprising can you be a little bit more brief with that. we've been on a speaker is saying we've never seen anything this why did in school- demonstrations are happening across the country and not just in major cities. it's very decentralized more importantly we're seeing criticism all hold the sectarian and political- sectarian deters. but it's a good leaders from within their own communities so it's this yeah community that's criticizing so need to ship the sunni community. sizining it's n leadership the christian said the same. and this is quite significant people are coming together for the first time staying where lebanese we want cemex state we no longer want to be defined by our sectarian identities. we believe this is what has led to the- economic and political management of the country and we want to new system in place. and the social contract between the state and instances and- means. that

their communities program. lastly at what happens and if the government does. full does that not l. eight more instability. levin on the region. i'm i don't see the government schooling as such i think we're now it's an impostor government needs to make a decision i don't think they're even contemplating resignation at this point as you mentioned there thinking about- about a shuffle- should there be more instability the two of a if you want sources that could step in on the army- i don't know whether we could look at to saddam side where to mix between. each year rule all we could be looking at said non state actors stepping and bad i don't think i think we're quite far he said this will. yeah i have the kana gamely sent. to
