a very. strong reaction from different corners of the world and this something that cannot be denied all demonstrations took place all over the world. also we heard the voices of condemnation from all societies at the forefront of which are members of fourteen members of the peace and security council fourteen members of the peace and security council except for the united states of course all of them. took a negative positions against and what the united states did in this particular period. therefore there was a need. for actions by the islamic. and the summit which president. organized in

no time here in istanbul and. this will be announced this you will listen to these decisions and resolutions we. position as follows the united states is no longer. an honest broker of peace we as palestinians arabs and muslims cannot accept anymore that the united states or be peace broker because one of the basic requirements for a broker is to be honest and neutral neutral and not to be biased for one side or another another if issue is that we are going to go to the peace and security council to make this decision and void on the basis of the night.

nations the charter. there is a provision that enables us to present it to the peace and security council. for which the united states will not be allowed to vote and we will go to the general assembly regarding the membership of israel because its membership is not in line with the editor national resolutions we will go to the peace and security council to consider the question of the full membership of palestine the most important issue. is. can the islamic oma present to. the question this how can we boycott. and

then try to protect it how can we further support the positions of the people of odds i know that there is there and there are people who talk about the difference between normalization and the question of there are people who deal with the palestinians and do not deal with the israelis we. if we want to protect. yes this can be done through international. resolutions but at the end of the day we need to support. with concrete or projects or palpable projects that can enable the people of jerusalem to remain alive. the aim is to. hurt any and. to expel them from the land of palestine we don't want to.

just a set of stones it is one of the two as. if it is not an habitant what is the point we need to make sure that people stay there and for people to stay there they must be supported we need to strengthen their presence there and we believe this is the mission of all islamic and christian countries. christian country our christian brothers. are in. and. just like the christian like muslims. and the. this is a holy city for all christians around the world i'm very honored to say that all of

them stood up with their starting with pope francis to pope petrus all of them. in a spirit to all christian spiritual leaders stood by our side in. the you certainly sure how muslims and christians were praying together people in mosque people holding up the bible and the koran this shows the unity of our people and we wanted to protect this city for us and for them once again we are to rate our thanks to president reagan for holding this successful summit this great summit. by all means. and the big. because of all the debate we had so far

thank you mr president. he did but he didn't kind of state who post on the hidden my dear friend from the moment office that he is in the same cancer general of the oh i say he was the you're saving face and it certainly is this the risk is this the ladies and gentlemen did the things the distinguished members of the press i would like to salute you all with my most heartfelt and oceans with love and respect. the very existential addition of the oh i see he said this to ensure the protection of the senate today and the historical status of jerusalem all goods he and today we have convened a very significant a very critical summit to the which becomes they start the mission and their

mission of the elysee of the united let's take this opportunity to thank all of our guests good in the us for having participated in this summit and i would also like to thank all those involved in the realisation you have this historical event. and i look this is total summit we have once again demonstrated to the rest of the world the fact is not alone we have shown this primarily due to. the owners of. the decision in question and your own aware of the fact that when we have started receiving the first signals president trumps perspective statement and i'll could say is that. we have started working tremendously as the term president of the y.c. we have tried to clearly accentuate the fact that the perspective this is in would . release. very serious results leading the

anti-racial into a shark opiate a failure. we have stated multiple times that this issue would be illegitimate would be unacceptable it would harm the contributions and the efforts for an eventual peace and it would. look to serve the purposes of the extremists and the fanatics. and united states taking such a decision would no longer be able to play a role of a mediator between palestine and israel i think that's that process has come to an end to the. mediation question here. will be. an issue that will be choir the joint discussion by all of the r.c. member states in order to identify a new name. and if the occasion were to ask for it we should resort to the united

nations in order to further assess this question because we need to sit down and lead such a process with the impartial players instead of players taking sides despite all of the united nations security council resolutions. that this decision was taken by the us administration and those resolutions have never been respected by the israel. when that was the case many repetition is were made. and. all of the. process he seemed to have always figured israel. i'm not sure if the members of the president see these maps but if i need to give you an example. he used that firm ninety four to seven o two today you can see the evolution of the palestinian. territory in the night

before nine hundred forty seven of course we need to think about the one nine hundred thirty s. when. he. knew the british started. taking actions and this green area used to belong entirely to the state of palestine and these little dots you can see here were the settle into the. jewish communities. we arrive at nine thousand four to seven you can see at a fraction plan belonging to the united nations. and here you can still see how the standing of shown as the green area and the white areas white zones are the. state of israel. and the territory israel is continuously expanding between nine hundred forty seven and ninety six seven nine hundred forty nine in one thousand nine hundred seven we can clearly see

that palestine has shrunk tremendously whereas israel kept on expanding. from there to here. this is a very unfair sharing of the territory. this is a very unjust sharing of territory because these lands rightfully belong to the palestinians . whatever israel was in one thousand nine hundred to seven that is what palestine is today and israel. has almost settled on the entire territory in question but it wouldn't be sufficient and i think they're still investing tremendous efforts in order to take the entire territory this is what president trump seems to wish because he is the defender of. haven't cellist and as zionist rationale this is the product of

such a rationale this was and forced upon sultan up to not meet but it was never realized and they're still trying to do it today. as the heads of states and governments are for you i see and as the executives of the o.e.c.d. we are going to be very resolute in terms of our stance if you serve the palestine . you didn't do that in jerusalem or you could well be our red line to turn it to you and this is what do we have spoken out to the rest of the world to the global community to this fight all of the warning despite all of the alerts to this administration you know kept on delivering this statement which is a legitimate which is good and moral. to the rule and invalid to this decision is no and going to be for history you know for international and

international legitimacy drumstick could ration is not developed in our understanding in our mentality and in our conscience in the way he will in the rough translation of the turkish expression he will play and he will dance in a selfie. it's kind of clear and this this issue is snatching a weight the rights of the palestinians over real crudes. and i have called his holiness the pope francis and he has delivered several speeches on of it which are. almost overlapping with that of many. upon this statement by the u.s. administration i have. to be invited all the fences and heads of states and governments of the members to come to stumble and partake in this extraordinary summit through correspondence letters and i have also called international

organisations and nano i.c. member states we know party sensitive towards could. because and they were cordially invited to partake here and for example the venezuelan little head of state mr mo to rome. was a part of the independence and it it he came all the way to stumble from venezuela . get into this extraordinary summit i would like to thank him for his presence here and he is clearly the voice of that region and proximity to that it's all of this is not a cause of the muslims only came to his stumble and he has officially declared to support to the end every decision. the minute the custodian of the holy sites the. comments and i eat up the not the second looking up to look the second of jordan who happened to be none could at the

time supported us in our endeavors and he is the term chair after a peak and he has a part taken in our joint efforts to denounce this statement. to see if the meeting of the oh i see it which we held in istanbul yesterday. supported this very strong message that we are communicating to the rest of the world today which was previously scheduled to take place somewhere else. we have had extensive phone diplomacy as with many leaders of countries around the world including as i've previously stated his holiness the pope needed to more than thirty years of states and governments and speakers of the parliaments very so i see states participating at this extraordinary summit. so more than fifty countries were represented at this extraordinary summit outside the

member states with welcome tens of states on governments in their own car. pioneers in their support they've provided to pakistan ever since the breaking out of this dispute and they have responded to our call and are cordial invitation. although most organized in a very limited amount of time i think of. it from every point of view just something ended up for me and i hope and pray that this commitment and this stance will be exemplary for the rest of the world to serve the kids and i would like to thank all heartily of the participants distinguished guests ladies and gentlemen distinguished members of the princess of the c.f.m. meeting to order to draft the final communique for this extraordinary summer camp and some. of the following the

summit we have also i'm ok well we'll leave it there for the last fifteen minutes or so you've been hearing various people speaking that was the turkish president. urging leaders of muslim nations the big news coming out there today from the emergency oh i see a meeting that was called in istanbul is that he was urging everyone to recognize jerusalem as the occupied capital of the palestinian state so they came out at the end of it this emergency session basically saying that east jerusalem should be recognized as the palestinian capital also as well the other big that's come out saying that no longer want the u.s. to be a broker of peace of course the references to well could there the arabic reference to jerusalem anyway right we'll come back for the bit later show to do bensky has been following this emergency session for us she's got more details on it. let's

start with some of his comments from today at that extraordinary meeting of fifty seven members of the muslim countries across continents president. i want to say jerusalem is occupied so the decision by i don't trump doesn't have any legitimacy a tool he described israel as being a terrorist state a state where soldiers kill ten year old children he also brought out a map of palestine and showed how the palestinian territories have to crist since nine hundred forty seven and israel's borders have increased in the time and he said that this decision by don't trump does one thing incredibly badly it harms any peace negotiations between the palestinians and the israelis and he called on all the asians to rise up against this decision and to recognize jerusalem as being the capital of the palestinian occupied territories and not israel.

with this decision. illegal settlements displacement. you know way of land and. violence israel is being in a way awarded for all the actions that they have commissioned and this process being awarded to israel by president. well also that meeting was a chance for the palestinian leader mahmoud abbas to address the fifty seven countries he talked about the fact that this decision why don't more time could be taken in the hands of extremists and they could use this decision to turn what is being a political struggle into a religious one now he also talked about the u.s. role as a mediator between israel and palestine. that the united states has chosen to lead this competency as mediator and disqualifies itself from playing a role in the peaceful process we should not accept a new role for the u.s.

in the peace process donald trump is often called a divisive figure ever since he was elected to u.s. president a year ago however it does appear that he succeeded in doing one thing and that is uniting arab nations against him by making this decision. seem so ironically because promoting peace was the declared purpose when donald trump recognized jerusalem as the capital of israel but there were all those warnings as we've heard and yet he didn't take heed of it so far there's been nonstop violence across the region since that announcement was made.

in a second some other news now today we're going to go back to this big middle east ory though you can bet your bottom dollar on how the coming hours the u.s. has warned the you against continuing of all the world's biggest energy projects the north stream to gas pipeline is planned to run from russia to europe but u.s. congress sees it only as a political move by moscow. it's not in europe's interests it's not in our interests it's also a political rather than a commercial undertaking there is an existing framework in place for the e.u. to take more aggressive action on north stream two and similar projects if it wished to do so politically but hearing on choose to happen the very same day europe narrowly avoided an energy crisis after a huge explosion at a major gas hub in austria it showed shock waves through the energy markets to fuel prices hit a four year high at one point gas flows have resumed now but the instance still prompted italy to declare a state of emergency for a while it was at the. gas plant this explosion in austria it distributes national gas from russia or norway all over europe including germany france and hungary it

said a technical fault caused the blast there it left one person dead and injured more than a dozen other workers on monday this week as well hell on crack shut the key pipeline network in the north sea as well let's get more on this and the volatility right now and the vulnerability of the whole network as crossed international oil and energy economist mom to sell in may hi there now you see a time today so u.s. congress not holding back on russia's plan for this nord stream two project and they're saying the alleged threat it poses to europe's energy security how dangerous is it. the americans as part of that the sanctions against russia they were all is open to the north stream to which will carry gaz russian gas under the baltic sea to get the money and from there to europe of course the european union particularly just of money

is keen to go ahead with that project because it is an economic project which will lessen the interruptions through the ukraine of course russia wants to avoid the ukraine pipeline if it is possible and replace it with turn to thieves including the door of the stream to to help the germans and the european union which is dependent by a more than thirty per cent on russian gas of course the americans want to encourage their export of angie to old on the pretext that they want to use the european union dependence on russian gas of course they want also to help themselves with their own exports so you think that's what's going on here behind the scenes that is to try and try and get some of the market. yes of course

they have been exporting a bit of al and g. to the asia pacific region and they're out of trying to export it to you or a european union and as i said under the pretext of reducing europe's dependence on russian gas of course that is an old ject of but they cannot be that russian gas because russian gas is far cheaper than at and t. from the united states and that's why the europeans are cleared to stick by imports of russian gas through a well established network of pipelines gaz by pliant. you can see how volatile this sort of thing is as well just look at the logistics of how the gaskets point to read those gas prices jump following the explosion we're talking

about just now the hub in austria the market are studied again is it going to continue to grow are you talking about the impact of the explosion in austria on the eyes of yet they spot a while are they going to go back down was a going to go. yes well let's look at it this way explosions do happen and accidents do happen and they have an immediate impact of prices particularly in the case of europe which is the bad debt to a great extent border that thirty percent own russian gas of course that lead to a high in the price of gas but things will get to a lot of ality within a few days because russia has promised to divert and reorganize its the leverage to old to our void that import hub in austria so prices will decline again it does hollowed this incident this explosion just how

vulnerable europe's gas system is at the moment. well the european gas system is interconnected voted says italy and slovakia and slovenia where immediately affectation by the stoppage in the import of power and or syria and of course they are talking about that there's about a third of that there's don't happen especially if they only don't papen with any day or a week it takes years to develop them and that's what russia has been trying to do with the note of the stream tool to ensure that no interruptions of guy as to your money and the european union or care as it is out of one explosion or one accident so thanks for time under saddam international energy

economist i think you few times well at home watching us so i was pretty sure this is art international it's not exactly twenty seven minutes past five before i go quick reminder of the big story that's come through the headline you see on the red ticker there at that meeting of the organization of is islamic countries big fifty seven state meeting they said they no longer want us as a broker of peace and importantly to very importantly they say east jerusalem should be recognized as the palestinian capital because we lot of fallout from this war across party dot com as well. i'm after a county we're going on the ground here at the playhouse theatre in central london coming up in the show there's a terror attack in the heart of the u.s. a financial capital have something to do with washington's decision to move its

embassy in israel to jerusalem we investigate the dangers to make our nation's because of their government's policies in the middle east. the former vice chairman of britain's ruling conservatives and the mitchell and. we talked to the director and stars of a west end revival of david mamet play glengarry glen ross about real estate and the savagery of western capitalism plus from the headlines a deafening silence as paulson steps up for a peace prize while we get down to the last war right here at r.t. all the more coming up in today's going underground. but first early speculation even in british mainstream media about monday's pipe bomb attack in new york centered on donald trump's decision to move the u.s. embassy in israel from tel aviv to jerusalem connections between national security and major nation middle east policy are often drawn in britain but not in the

context of years of nato nations support for islam missed militants in syria to take down the government of president bashar assad no one appears to ask how wise it is to use u.k. taxpayer money to fund militants who can do us harm here in britain but when it comes to british military support for persian gulf war talk receives like bahrain and of course saudi arabia it is national security that is often actually invoked take this prime ministerial response to a question about u.k. arms sales to saudi the security of the gulf is important to us and i would simply also remind the right on the gentleman that actually saudi intelligence counterterrorism links we have with saudi arabia the intelligence speak at from saudi arabia has saved potentially hundreds of lives yes minority government u.k. leader to resume now in defiance of a european parliament arms embargo resolution continues to allow the export of lethal weaponry to saudi and it apparently protects us here at home from terrorism even if it continues to threaten tens of millions in yemen the u.n.

calls it the world's worst humanitarian crisis joining me now is the former vice chair of tourism is party the u.k.'s form. your state for international development and you michel and you thanks for joining us in the studio we're going underground i should just ask actually given the amount of abuse these stations getting at the moment why you as a conservative m.p. appear on r.t. at all well i should make it clear i never take any money off you for doing so i come on of my own free will and the reason i do so is because when the russians were destroying the city of aleppo one of the great cities of the world in syria you let me on you let me have my say and you brought costs what i said and i thought therefore you were standing up for free speech and for that reason i've never had any qualms about speaking out on r.t. and i'm sure the russians and those living in west aleppo would have a lot to say about what you said about east you and i have debated this.
