what you know now is sit back and enjoy our christmas what i want is you to be in fear of our christmas our traditions. the us may have more forces in syria and iraq than it had myths that's according to findings by the think tank the us defense manpower data center on the scale of morgan has been following the story. the new report indicates that the united states has roughly two thousand troops in syria at this time while officially the pentagon has only acknowledge the presence of about five hundred there's a similar discrepancy when it comes to iraq the numbers provided by this reporter about three thousand higher than the numbers provided by the pentagon now in response the pentagon has said that the numbers they provided was only based on estimates this is the pentagon's response to the discrepancy between the think tank report and their own numbers the d.m. d.c.
3:09 pm
numbers not the official deployment count the numbers that we provide i ditched the approximately five hundred in syria and approximately five thousand in iraq has the official deployment count at this point the united states is in syria has a military presence there cording to the report it's more than two thousand troops but they have done this without the permission of the internationally recognized syrian government at no point has the syrian arab republic given permission for the usa to enter its territory however the usa maintains a military presence there at this point we've heard james mattis secretary of defense say that even after i still is defeated the united states does not intend to immediately withdraw those forces that are in syria without the permission of the internationally recognized syrian government furthermore donald trump has raised the number of u.s. troops in afghanistan at this point there are roughly fourteen thousand u.s. troops occupying afghanistan so questions are being raised it's important to point
3:10 pm
out that at this point polls continue to show that public opinion in the united states is opposed to further meddling and intervention around the world but yet the number of u.s. troops located in the middle east and in other countries continues to rise. more than two hundred afghan families are trying to open deserts in the east of the country people had to flee their homes running from crossfire between the taliban and islamic state militants now they live in makeshift tents of the does it would to us. approaching. other than not the one we call on the government and international forces to help us out with a whole lot worse we don't even have access to medical care but doing back would cost us our lives our women and children are in a bad condition how can we live in these tents during this cold winter. emanuel micron is on a three day tour of africa the trip kicked off a makino facet where the french president didn't get the warmest the welcome.
3:11 pm
round. grantley. to. these with an ocean has been following that african maria perhaps not the star would have hoped for. well yes i have to say it wasn't told smooth and read about cohen's trip to africa started with an attempted attack on french troops on the ground as security sources told reporters that a grenade was thrown into military car and although it wasn't hate the mass h. was very clear perhaps the president of the former colonial rule was not very welcomed on the african soil and indeed in the realm of crohn's a visit to africa came at the time of rising discontent among the population of french speaking african countries over france's policy of many what many complain

3:12 pm
is about supporting local corrupt governments but that was the idea of this trip to africa that in many many mccraw announced before going there and the way to go and try to reset an easy relations to try to build new bridges leaving france's colonial past behind and as a new and not form said that he was from the generation that would not tell africans what to do all of that sounded very positive and very promising but apparently something went wrong because france's president de tell africans what to do and on several occasions first while speaking about trafficking problems in northern africa and then micron was meeting students of one of the local universities and he put responsibility blaming local people for this problem let's take a listen. just wanted to go. the cities that's a given to me is that. the city still says so but the whole city salt on thirty bus
3:13 pm
only dean says so there's a think of france's president lost his temper another time while uncertain of the question. of an african student about the number of african students runs comparing to the number of african french troops in africa this is what he said. as it did for global use mr dobbs pointed out that it that you'll get all. the answers so we get this at the start but there's a. republican studies on the floor said. that the cost of this approach am. this question high like bro do an issue the criticism on local population of range troops stationed on the ground in africa because there was a number of negative incidents with french military involved in the most outrageous
3:14 pm
one front suspended two of its military over child abuse allegations and there was just one of the examples they were as they were many of them in several african countries so friends president and we actually to this question was quite surprising and many saying taking the president actually away from the national mission of this tree but the journey still goes on and experts now say that the president might have time to clarify his position and to go back to his initial positive mission to build new bridges with africa back to you this is a financial reporting for us from paris thank you. really just said this isn't the first incident of abuse by french troops the central african republic has seen cases of rape by french soldiers with reports of local minors suffering sexual
3:15 pm
assaults back in two thousand and sixteen several victims who asked not to be identified the stories. botha's has been i was thirteen at the time i saw oranges and french troops asked me to bring them to room in their base when i entered it one of them jumped on me and raped me there was nothing i could go on. and i was fifteen and sold french troops hours they take hold trays once they asked me to take them to the tank when i got there they seized me and raped me right there. for i know children who socialized with french troops because they played football volleyball with the kids that's when most of the rapes happens and. kurdish troops fighting in syria said that they'd have no problem joining government forces if they're allowed to form a federal state in the north of the country the statement comes after turkey claims donald trump has promised to stop arming kurdish forces but there's apparently no clear position on the matter in the white house once we started winning the
3:16 pm
campaign against isis plan and part of the process is to always wind down support for certain groups and now that we're continuing to crush the physical caliphate that we're in a position to stop providing military equipment to certain groups. kurdish forces have been successfully fighting against islamic state in northern syria you can see who controls what areas on this map u.s. is long been providing the kurds with military equipment another something that has irritated washington's key data ally turkey against the of explains. as the problem says you can't ride two horses with one back side makes sense right unfortunately it doesn't stop people from trying to support turkey in the first fight against terror and terror groups like isis and the p.k. k. the president authorized the department of fence to acquit kurdish elements of the syrian democratic forces we should be using we should be doing that whatever the
3:17 pm
reason is it is not something that is acceptable for our friends and nato ally turkey is an ally obviously a strong partner certainly over the specter and friend here's how it is to us allies the turks and the syrian kurds as sworn enemies washington has on the kurds to the teeth saying they need these weapons to fight the jihad ists and turkey sort of understood. when do you need to cooperate with one terrorist organization to fight another terrorist organization it's not the way a serious state should behave and it does not suit the united states so what next does the u.s. abandon one of its most trustworthy partners try to take back those guns the kurds are stupid they can play that game too there is no problem for our forces to join the syrian army if the new syrian constitution is drafted on
3:18 pm
a federal basis and the rights of all syrian parties are reserved this is a two pronged approach it's a warning to the u.s. we can dump you before you dump us and the message to ash sad give us what we want autonomy and we won't need the americans now you need and as a kurd i can say that our people want to build a syrian cities with no force or ethnic groups dominating any other group i believe it is in the interests of the kurds is the second largest ethnic group in syria to build multifunction. federal syria with the interests of the kurdish people would be in trying to. allowing kurds to participate in parliament and join the army in all the state institutions. a new constitution for syria is on the horizon russia iran and turkey backing the initiative but what the kurds get out of it is still up for debate america the us has never viewed the syrian democratic forces as
3:19 pm
partners unfortunately the u.s. has only been using them to fight i saw and destroy iraq or i believe the alliance between the us and forces on the ground including the s.d.f. in syria and kurdish groups in iraq has never been a true partnership the us provided assistance and weapons for self-defense purposes and for combating eisel with these agreements have never been linked to military action. which leaves us with the us and its two horses betrayed the turks a valuable nato ally or betray the kurds their ace in syria alternatively wait for them to betray the states. the e.u. is voted to extend the license of a controversial weed killer produced by agricultural giant monsanto the product being linked to cancer and other health problems eighteen countries including germany and poland voted in favor of license renewal france and italy were among

3:24 pm
he'll hello well it was deep into the night pretty much both koreas were asleep when we found out that the ballistic missile tests actually happened the latest assessment from both the japanese military and the pentagon is that the north korean missile flew some one hundred kilometers before it fell and the sea of japan without causing any harm it wasn't immediately clear what type of missile was fired but the office of the japanese prime minister tweeted out saying that indeed it was something that landed near their territory the tweet said a missile was launched from north korea which appears to have landed within japan's exclusive economic zone the japanese broadcaster. and h.k. said that an estimation by the japanese government how to the north korean missile flew for fifteen minutes japan's cabinet crisis team was in either the
3:25 pm
summit on this in according to the south korean military they responded with a persistent strike mission michelle exercise president trump has been briefed on the launch while the missile was still in the air he was meeting with the g.o.p. and immediately questions war thrown out him about it but he couldn't say anything for now. we're here. well of course if we speak about the north korean nuclear crisis and we go and ballistic missile test a nuclear test by north korea here we have to bear in mind that there is an international consensus that these tests are legal under numerous u.n. resolutions but there are several approaches about how to stop him john from conducting new missile tests japan and the u.s.
3:26 pm
believe that the only way to do it is to keep making all kinds of pressure putting all kinds of pressure on young yang while russia's got a different suggestion they believe that the constant military drills joint drills by japan south korea and the u.s. are only adding fuel to the fire and this is something that makes john appealing and carry out new tests well when kim jong il refracted from any tests for about a month it seemed that the russian plan was something that could work out but at the same time we saw that the south korean side as well as the u.s. side they were planning more drills although now we understand that this is going to cause another round of escalation and we'll be watching out for it of course now corresponding there really trying to bring as a very light stillness breaking news story line from south korea. thanks staying
