welcome back here with here's a reminder of the top stories claims of the bloody is the so far in syria with reports of over three hundred and twenty killed after battles between the country's government and rebels outside the capital damascus this as air raids continue in the northern commercial hub of aleppo where opposition fighters say they control at least half of the city. activist outrage israel's military refuses a delivery of aid to palestinians schoolchildren in the west bank by a group of over one hundred international volunteers the incident follows the latest revelations on the mass abuse of palestinian youngsters committed by israeli soldiers. and iran's foreign minister rings the opening bell of the world's

nonaligned summit into iran which will see a third of united nation members take part the decision of the un's chief to join the conference has not been welcomed by nato and its allies which have been accused of trying to play down the meetings importance. because they have alliance next it's our interview and today we're talking to foreign affairs expert and left wing politicians but i can lend stance on a range of international issues including syria libya and iran. as one of the world's major economic and political power houses germany has a lot of influence which it can exert over global situations not to talk with me a little bit more about what germany is doing on the global stage right now i'm joined by. the foreign policy spokesperson for the left body here in germany thanks very much speaking to. syria is of course the major flashpoint in the world right

now what's germany's view on the situation the moment i would love to know what my position is in syria and i think i'm the only side i can take that those people are still peacefully demonstrating for the right for the democratic and human rights. but the german government officially they don't cite something sure of the. human rights violator repression within the country sure enough but officially them taking any other sides with the rebels or whatever but informally and we see it from their involvement you know this by ship on the ground and other stuff and they invite syrian petitions for the time thereafter and train them here so officially they seem to take sides but it's unclear to me who they are now you mentioned the training of politicians for a syria without assad how are those people chosen i know i do your i mean this is

by it's not the government think. think think that's close to the government we have. somebody from next to people. on the basis of which virtually no clue i mean we have been invited for on discussion i'm afraid how can you claim some people and others not to mean we left party blinking in germany we have confidence left politicians some people in syria i would know why i would pick but obviously these are different people. so if these people have been brought here to germany because germany sees them as being beneficial for the country in the future sure obviously i mean there's sort of an idea this government has which is not out of the public space i don't know about it but obviously they have an idea who they want to govern the country with it this is ethnically based religiously based politically based i've no no clue i can't figure i can imagine i would think that

they would look for people who are not too close to the muslim brothers so to islam for way from from us what is possible maybe not too critical about turkey but i don't know so is germany setting itself up as the best place to to train politicians for the post. that's what they are doing i mean obviously they are inviting people here and they call it training for the situation there after. so yes they're training people for government positions they want to have the relationship with the german government and you mentioned the muslim brotherhood they're another country where they have huge influences of course in egypt how do you view the situation in that country after their revolution and their transition into a new egypt was very difficult situation for a long time i was afraid that the army would take over. and now as of today it

looks better so that they are losing some of the power of the military to the elected president if this situation continues i look hopefully to a future for the situation within egypt what this means for the whole region i mean we had a clash at the border to israel so really have no idea i think it's very volatile right now for israel for libya syria. and especially then all the threats from israel against iran so it's too early to say that the revolution in egypt is one is over everything is peaceful and happy happy but it looks better today than four weeks ago. well to move to libya now what's the situation there in your opinion how does a country like libya is going to rebuild itself one of the after months very few people talk about is that many of those who fought in libya now went to the area and are now fighting in mali for example were we have no sort of a civil war going on or some really extreme muslim took over the north

a part of mali many of those fought before that and worked with weapons everything were trained in libya so we see sort of the fallout of this war and libya in the neighboring country is there a chance that the type of situation we see right now in libya could be repeated in syria as of today the situation for me in syria looks much worse than in libya because i mean the whole environment you know with the middle east conflict. is one problem the other problem is that right now there seems to be so many other countries. who of their own interest was in syria supporting one side or the other turkey with the kurdish problem so they are supporting the movement just to prevent the kurds within syria to have their own you know autonomy then you have the gulf states supporting the rebels you have russia supporting it you have the cia on the ground you have german spy ships on the ground i mean this seems to be the whole world have their interest now with one group or the other syria and that looks to

me like a recent piece for a long civil war within syria now we talk about contagion when we're talking about the eurozone crisis is there a risk of a war contagion in the wider middle east area if the situation in syria continues contagion is the very risk why the west right now is hesitant to intervene because they know if you go into a country like syria you have no control of what's going to happen in the neighboring countries with in the center of attention and levanon so that's why right now the west does not want to intervene because the one of the spillover. but is this not the perfect opportunity to work with iran if i would just look at syria i would think. that that's now the time to get in iran but if you look at the current news. threatening more and more in conflict with iran

threatening to attack the nuclear sites within iran with the threat growing by the day and i'm still not confident that really keeping at bay until november. it's very difficult for me to think about getting more contact with iran at the same time there's dismantles military attack on iran interior and might. seem to back off the talks that started so hopefully in moscow for example earlier this year so. the problem is that we're not having syria as a problem alone we're not having peace very iran the problem in the rhone we have turkey because conflict is escalating everything at the same time so where do you see the future of this argument between israel and iran if tel aviv would be rational. i would be happy and think nothing's going to happen because i think military attack on the. cooking nearly suicidal for israel.

considering that with all the change in egypt in the neighboring countries the tech like this you don't know how the region will react and if netanyahu be rational i would be happy and safe and think no they won't dare to unfortunately i'm not sure that that and you know is that rational i mean he's increasing he's really increasing his tanks israel attacks. and i'm afraid his calculation might be before the us election if i can attack iran a bomb has to back me after the election he might not want to back so that gives us a really really bad chance that the netanyahu might attack in october as soon as october starts with an attack and the question is how an attack from. tools for nuclear science in iran how will that develop. i'm not sure it will develop an all out war but i mean attacks on israel will happen then you don't know how to react with the street almost whether they will close it or not that would definitely

start an all out war in terms of germany's role what job is that germany to do germany could really change a lot in that region it was. germany nine years ago to to mediate in the conflict on the not the program it was germany who moved to three plus three talks in the beginning in two thousand and three when i'm talking to rafa. in the region when i went to a couple of months ago i mean everybody thinks the german should play better from the road unfortunately this government just plays. the us courts so whatever the us does they follow it and they don't have any initiative on their own what kind of initiative would you like to see the first thing they could easily do is deescalate the conflict with iran i mean they could really go three four five steps towards to iran and say ok. now we believe that you stopped the military nuclear

program in two thousand and three so that we're lifting the sanctions and we are engaging in human rights talk and economic talks and this and that this journey just lift sanctions is that not purely a symbolic act you know it would be much more than symbolic because the u.n. sanctions are rather small and then the e.u. sanctions much much bigger i mean the oil embargo that's very bad in germany was sort of the powerhouse behind the on the border they could easily have said in a ok we postpone it for another six months postponement not lifting there would have been a very strong signal to. they could have started negotiating. to me to move on that i mean i really forty with my own government and said what's the problem with with a moratorium for three months for six months of the border before that because they just follow the u.s. line here they don't have their own policy that's really bad i think the other thing is weapons i mean german arms exports biggest in the world after russia are

on the u.s. . they should stop selling weapons in the region and that involves saudi arabia as well as israel as well as other countries and they are still sending every kind of weapon to that region what would you like to see from the german government's foreign policy right now i mean if they would do nothing at all i would be happier than what they are doing today i mean officially they're not doing much but then we suddenly can read the newspapers that they sent a spy ship you know that they are monitoring everything that they are helping the rebels against the assad regime they are taking sides in a military conflict exactly wrong i mean better would be if you don't do the right thing do nothing thank you very much bush speaking you're welcome.
