we're beginning to get it out so the we sure that the implementation of these measures will cool some hot hates and will keep them from judge moves that could threaten our servicemen otherwise we'll be forced to react according to the situation at the time. well the steps that russia is taking will doubtlessly change the situation on the ground in syria and perhaps perhaps radically but moscow was very clear the situation had changed and that necessitated further further changes on what moscow and what syria doing the overwhelming concern according to the kremlin according to the russian ministry of defense is pilot safety and that overshadows everything out so firstly they're going to supply syria with s. three hundred missile systems air defense systems and that in and of itself is huge because these systems are much more powerful much more versatile with far greater reach than anything else that syria has and it is going to make any
8:01 am
potential israeli israeli for a bombing foray into syria much more difficult but let's not forget that russia held off on doing this and supplying syria with s. three hundred systems for many years at israel's request but you're coming in i want to underline that in twenty thirteen russia responded to israel's request to put on hold its supplies of the else three hundred to syria that's despite the weaponry being ready for delivery and syrian military personnel having undergone training but the situation has changed and that is not our fault. secondly syrian air defense command centers will now be equipped equipped with automated the fire control systems which basically means the syrians syrians will be able to unify amalgamate all of their air defense systems be it s two hundred books or whatever out they'll be able to fire. much quicker much more accurately with much
8:02 am
greater precision than they were able to do previously but perhaps most importantly is that these systems come with a friend or foe identification which will hopefully prevent another friendly fire incident thirdly no less important any object b. of a missile or a jet that is attacking syria from the mediterranean will now be jammed by the russians that is radio electronic jamming that is satellite navigation jamming communications jamming so russia says that this will hopefully prevent any cool hotheads and prevent a situation like this from happening again the syrian president has been made aware of the steps that russia is taking him and vladimir putin talked on the phone where putin again reaffirmed russia's commitment and readiness to take more steps that
8:03 am
take further more effort. basically to take the additional steps to make the situation in syria safer for russian pilots but they're being very careful about this they're. saying that this isn't targeted at any nation be it israel or anyone else they're saying that they're doing this who need to protect russian pilots nevertheless this is all very serious and russia said that what israel did was entirely unexpected the russian ministry of defense conducted a special investigation which they had just concluded and they found that the yield twenty aircraft which was patrolling patrolling the airspace over syria monitoring the situation. that it had no time to get cleared get away from this israeli air strike because the four israeli f. sixteen s that showed up began bombing syria than you would the russians one minute in advance which was. not enough time and as icing on the cake the event took cover
8:04 am
behind the russian aircraft drawing syrian missiles to it making making it a target and the russians judging by how serious these steps are they're determined never to let this happen again. i was a motor gassier there talking to me a bit earlier to get the thoughts now he's joined us he's a syrian military analyst kamau you very welcome what do you think the message is here from russia do you think it is a blunt one to everybody saying look don't try and bomb syria anymore or is it perhaps something more subtle. i think it's a mixture of both there's been a lot of different air forces in the air and these really isn't the russians have had a deacon flitting line for the last twelve months which is made sure there hasn't been an accident such as this but now that this is happening often russia is not going to take any other chance in terms of its own safety would alter for serious safety because syria has been under a bombing from the israelis and also some of the other nato countries so this now
8:05 am
means that syria can defend itself as well as russian pilots and air defense will be beefed up as well so do you think it will prevent then other countries from deciding to bomb syria. if you know they're fully make them think again the israelis of earlier this year lost a plane as well because of syrian air defense the israelis have been the most aggressive when it comes to bombing syria from all the other countries in the region in the region whether they think again one doesn't know but it gives syria and russia more of volume to attack back if they're under attack unexpectedly because here the russians were given very little warning normally the israelis let them know an hour or two in advance here they were told very last minute it was an accident but it was a very very extreme accident doesn't make israel look at it in any way. looking at it from a different point of view perhaps the fact that it's now reached this stage in the
8:06 am
end he's been up considerably is there a danger of a much wider conflict given the fact that it appears any aircraft flying over syria could be taken down. yes sir fink the severity of the conflict is always on the thin line at the moment the russians and the turks have come into a very good mediation and north whilst two years ago if you saw turkey it of course deliberately shot down the russian jets the moment after the s. three hundred go up russian and syrian air defenses are heightened in the mediterranean it would be very difficult for other forces to attack and if they do and the plane is taken out then of course this can escalate very quickly but as long as the deescalation zone parties i.e. russia turkey and iran have a good understanding between each other one would hope that further escalation is stopped but one never knows of this conflict and how do you think israel will then react to today's development. other years it'll be taken aback because those will
8:07 am
have been lobbying russia for more than a decade even before this war began for them not to sell the syrians as three hundred but i think when it comes to the russian israeli defense agreement the russians have kept their own of the bargain there they've been extremely careful to look after israel's interests but israel of that acted very recklessly and they only have themselves to blame for the s. three hundred ending up in syria because this is been as i said a long time coming it was more than a decade ago that the russians and the syrian started negotiating for buying the s three hundred and now i think it's very important for the syria defense to have s. three hundred but also for russia's military that's based in syria ok thanks for your time this afternoon i was come out syrian military analyst thank you. and other news the world's descending on new york for the seventy third u.n. general assembly with the main session kicking off on tuesday the general debate as
8:08 am
it's known is not so much of a debate though but rather an opportunity for representatives to make a speech on the most pressing topics and it seems that donald trump is playing the headliner role r.t.g. goes down off looks now at what we can expect the ship. in the global political circus trump has taken it upon himself to be the greatest showman or jest depending on what side of the fence you're on and on tuesday the curtains will rise and the spotlight fall on trump taking center stage at one of this year's main spectacles the u.n. general assembly he's got a couple major possibilities really to help illuminate for the american people what america's place in the world is president will preside over the security council and i am sure that's going to be the most watched security council meeting ever well trumps the trickle debut at the u.n. g.a. last year provided a taste of what the u.s. president is capable of it is a massive source of embarrassment to the united nations rogue regimes represented

of being overthrown i don't know when we're going to overthrow them it could be in a few days months a couple of years but it's going to happen they're going to be overthrown juggling two. jobs it seems the president's to low end of freelance foreign policy adviser though at least he seems inspired by his boss's remarks threat posed by iran whose chief exports are violence bloodshed and chaos all nations of conscience must work together to isolate giuliani's stun triggered some emergency damage control protocols in washington how seriously should it take the iranians when they hear the president's close advisor rudy giuliani saying there's going to be regime change and it look the united states is not looking to do a regime change in iran at all that as the u.s. continued to bully tehran over the nuclear issue but trump insists he's playing the good guy and means well i look forward to being at the united nations next week

we're going to make a speech we're going to have many meetings a lot of good things can happen the u.n. though could take that with a pinch of salt for the international body good things meant the u.s. ditching unesco attempting to discredit the international criminal court and learning they're not so close when it comes to freedoms the united nations is not a friend of democracy is not a friend to freedom it's not a friend even to the united states of america where as you know it has its home and it surely is not a threat to israel. and it's not just the u.n. that wants to get on the same page as trump it's also russia china north korea about the rest of the world really and on tuesday the u.s. president will have he's best chance to explain that he's not just a gung ho diplomat. he's going to do good things before it is catastrophic if.
8:12 am
i think. the have worked in a few cases you know maybe in north korea. it got north korea to. soften up its stance on. its nuclear testing and its i c b m development. because it's so outrageous but if you do that too many times and you threaten you know to to break all the china in the shop and then you don't do it. then after a while it starts to be seen as a bluff and he is probably getting to that point where most people see it as a bluff and respond to it accordingly instead of panicking. washing out a still to come future satellite is testing is to show that sexual violence in south africa is hitting the record playbill highest we'll have the details and
