internet. a face to face meeting with. the presidents of russia and turkey in the black sea resort of sochi resulted in a new plan for syria both leaders seem somewhat optimistic about it. you know. we're putting new project into practice i hope it will work well congress and all people as friends of the syrian people and the neighbors will read it to dog best to achieve these instability in the country syria should be free of any only real full foreign presence the long term stability of syria can only be achieved by observing the silver and unity of the country right now vladimir putin and top are to want to have shaken their hands and the 10 paragraph agreement is there there are many elements to it 1st of all it ensures that all the involved saw its respects the territorial integrity of syria but more importantly if we look into

the gleeman of means that russia agreed to turkey's desired 30 kilometer buffer zone along the border and means that the kurdish militias now have 150 hours to leave that area parts of design will later be controlled by russia's military police and the turkish military plus another paragraph rules that control over the turkish syrian border on the syrian side should be returned to the syrian government forces and by the way vladimir putin has already been on the phone with the syrian president bashar al assad and we know already that damascus is pleased with the outcome of today's talks between putin aired on it's also very important that if everything goes according to plan the turkish offensive will be put on hold for another 150 hours

as i've said so clearly a breakthrough after a talks that lasted well longer than originally expected by the turkish president and the russian leader vladimir putin one of. the main questions right now is where all this leaves the us and this is exactly what i asked of the russian minister of defense and the russian foreign minister who continued talking to the journalists after the leaders left and to that surrogate lavrov reminded us that russia believes that the american troops and their involvement in syria was illegal in the 1st place and certainly showing the top russian army official reminded us of the expiring deadline of the so-called previous ceasefire brokered between washington and ankara and expressed some real skepticism about the americans fulfilling their promises the united states has very little time left to fulfill their obligations

very soon the time bar expires which was meant to see moving heavy equipment to weight combat units and so on the senior russian officials went on to bring up a few other issues that are still out there regardless of the greenman for example the fate of eisel terrorists that were released as a result of this vacuum when the turkish army didn't and terror just yet but the kurdish militias had already retreated according to sergei scheuer who hundreds of eisel fighters have run free at this point there's also the refugee issue and many others but again judging by what we heard throughout choose day after these extended talks between the leaders of russia and turkey the level of trust and the friendship between the leaders their relationship that they've established in the last few years allows them to deal with pretty much any

difficulties in that area given that right now they are clearly the number one players when it comes to dealing with the situation in northeast syria. speaking out to use of ferrum is a political analyst. are going to use of what would you make of this russia to keep planning for the northern part of syria. it's a very important deal and while both sides didn't get everything that they wanted they got enough where they can leave the table and say we're happy and these were reported gains and now when we look from a turkish perspective turkish was able to cement the diplomatic gains it made at the table with the united states by having them reflected onto the field by dealing with the russians because of well in reality the u.s. presence is waning and the last real power brokers in syria are turkey and russia

so any deal with the americans to have a meaningful consequence on the field needs to be reaffirmed by the russian president that's exactly what the turkish president did today he had this deal reaffirmed and we see that even though turkey is not dealing directly with the regime through russia we see that the regime is happy with this deal that the opposition is happy with this deal turkey is happy with this deal and the russians are happy with this deal so it's a win win for everybody for my point of view. over all the plays you mentioned that seem to be content but what about the u.s. have to kind of that that they're withdrawing and you think that's the end of their presence in the region now or could they still play a part in this i think the united states is happy with this deal because this deal could quite possibly save the deal that the united states made without a one almost a week or less than a week ago because the deal was fragile b.

c. the military pause expired just about 2 hours ago and the president already made common comments about unkept promises there's been over 40 violations of the deal by the y.p. g. so it's not the sure will present i do want to recertify or decertify that agreement that he made with my hands but i think that this deal with russia could quite. we see the deal made with the americans so the should be happy i don't know exactly what they're thinking about it but it could quite possibly help them avoid any further conflict with between turkey and their proxy the white b.g. . in terms of the fight against terrorism you've got some. terrorists the major players in the region done you've got in principle some escaped eisel terrorists escaped from the prison camps how difficult it's going to

beit to work together to fight terrorism well when you look at turkey's presence in the region especially with operation euphrates shield back in 2016 turkey did a great job against fighting isis neutralizing over 3000 terrorist operation olive branch against the y p g again turkey did a very good job against a different organization that they view as terrorist now you have turkey patrolling these areas in some areas with the russians some areas solely by itself between the time i be out in mosul and if some areas of russian in the syrian border patrol will be there so you have 3 different security forces in this region so i highly doubt that's going to allow for any room to breed for either i saw or heard of the y b g we also have a place of verification and security mechanism to make sure that this deal holes and as long as everyone is very honest with each other i see no reason why terror

should play any part in this safe zone area or anywhere where turkey and russia are working together and having the source of use of federal political analyst. thanks lisa. donald trump a sore throat iced $4500000.00 in direct aid for the controversial syrian defense group the white helmets but the move outs to the confusion of who the trumpet ministrations ports its recent withdrawal of u.s. forces from syria has left the country's opposition seemingly at loggerheads over the course of the 8 year conflict in syria the s.c.d. has rescued more than $150000.00 people including many ethnic and religious minorities the u.s. encourages our allies and partners to join us in our support for the s.c.d. and in our efforts to protect civilians religious and ethnic minorities and other innocent victims of the syrian conflict the decorated volunteer organization has become famous for pulling civilians from the rubble of the syria conflict but

issues over time of undermined its credibility members were filmed waving jihadi flags they'd been spotted executions and court staging the rescue of a citizen also the white house that operated so only in areas controlled by anti government billiton such as the al qaeda affiliate illness or a front of this month the white house has accused other u.s. allies the kurds of targeting civilians in aleppo in turn the kurdish led s.d.f. has repeatedly said that the white helmets are not welcome in territories controlled by the along with u.s. troops the earth year for post president assad's forces in northeastern syria prior to trump this isn't to withdraw from the country. but to kennington is the executive editor of 21st century wired dot com joins on the line now welcome patrick what do you make of the u.s. continuing to give aid to what many people describe as being a controversial group the white helmets. i think you have to look at this from

a political point of view because they're so deeply invested already in this so-called search and rescue group over the years since 2013 the united states is deeply invested into it the british government's deeply invested into it the dutch government are invested into a lot of nato member states are including turkey who's been hosting their base of operations in gaza and tap since they're on since the they came onto the scene in 2013 so they have to protect their investment it's not just a financial investment but it's not just military investment because the white helmets work according to all the evidence including to evidence that i have seen firsthand myself in east aleppo sharing facilities with. showing membership with terrorist groups like al nusra front for instance or h.t.s. so there's a reputation issue now with the west they have to double down they have to keep

continue to support this group they have to finance these people who are on junket tours around the west who are getting photographed photo opportunities with with bernie sanders with adam schiff there's image laundering going on and this guarantees including this white house with donald trump now that they're invested and they've they've thrown money into the white helmets pot now after that's been proven their terrorist links now trump it's bought the silence of the trump administration so this this is a monumental con that the likes of which the world has never seen before and everybody who's bought into it is married to it for life otherwise the blowback politically will be tremendous so they can't say anything bad about the white helmets going forward to take the white house a political agenda of their own if he's interested they say. well if you look at all you have to do is look at the white helmet membership there exclusively.

opposition rebel stroke terrorist exclusively male sunni ok they claim to be have rescued religious and ethnic minorities which there's no proof of that nor is there any proof that they have rescued 112000 civilians there's no paperwork there's no names there's no testimonials there's no accident reports for a group that's that's raked in around $200000000.00 at least since 2013 you'd expect you know basic practices for a so-called search and rescue group but the political agenda is twofold they're in a crisis point right now is the last area in syria the eye of the white house much can operate on because politically they are aligned strictly and exclusively with the islamist extremist rebel militant terrorist groups there's no doubt about that they're not welcome anywhere as your report already mentioned in syria so politically they're aligned this way and the u.s.

has not completely given up on this 2nd islamic state in neither has turkey and a lot of the efforts of turkey of the u.s. have been designed to stall for the eventual liberation of the of live provinces the last holdout really of the this this rebel army that the u.s. and its allies have have spent billions of dollars in the gulf states billions of dollars invested in this what is now a terrorist army before was regarded as a rebel army but that joke is long since passed so they're deeply invested politically financially and the white helmets performed so many useful. tasks for this effort over the years from p.r. to propaganda to terrorist recruitment those images being. across the western media for all these years was

a boon for recruitment of extremists from specially from european countries and from north america because that's all that was on t.v. for 5 straight years as the evil assad was was bombing babies in the white helmets were saving them and they were all clearly aligned with the sword of islam missed factions in syria over these years so it's quite an intricate web that has been woven since 2013 gavin speaking patrick having said he's the executive editor of 21st century wired dot com good to speak to patrick. ok change of pace our british m.p.'s have once again dealt a blow to boris johnson's hopes of getting his brags deal through parliament they rejected the government's timetable to approve the withdrawal bill during the debate parliament slammed the p.m.'s idea to pick through the withdrawal agreement in just 3 days and we warned on saturday that if the house passes the government's

deal it would be a disaster for our country now as we look through the details of the bell we see just how rights we page after page of what amounts to nothing less than a charter for deregulation and a race to the bottom of the bill was published last night it takes time to have the fictive scrutiny of this sort of prime minister doesn't kid about process about parliament all about the rule of law. oh and piece of proof the withdrawal agreement itself boris johnson is not ready to continue discussion without telling table these should be a good stash he explains. where is it being left no one really can answer that question but what i can tell you is that today there has been 2 crucial votes on breaks at the 1st one on the withdrawal agreement bill boris johnson's plans that actually went through with the majority of the it's the 2nd one that's potentially

more controversial with the brics it plans because that was all about the timetable to implement to get the largest legislation through parliament in time just 3 days was what the timetable had in place 1st johnson losing about one then and he said in fact he would decide to take a poll in the brics it process and start putting the ball back in the court until we reach is and i would say we would because this legislation let me let me be clear let me be clear that our policy remains that we should nor. that we should leave the. job or the 31st. that is what i would say to the e.u. i'm going to report back to her well it failed to go through for numerous reasons the key one being because it simply did not give m.p.'s enough time to properly scrutinise and sift through the pages line by line they were handed the document

very late last night it was 110 pages long to get all the legislation around it through in just 3 days time seems to be like a monumental task for many m.p.'s and that simply is the reason why it was voted down and speaking directly also that defeat jeremy corbin the leader of the opposition took to the floor and what he suggested is giving boris johnson olive branch saying actually let's pave a sensible way forward and look out reasonable extension earliest forest. johnson said if it felt to go in his favor well here pull the whole bill entirely and that's something that he said in fact he'd go for a general election instead probably. a large group to have. stood against it's win decides to delay everything until january and possibly longer in new circumstances cry most of the book the bill will have to be pulled and we will have to go forward much as a writer we don't like you will have to go to

a general election well much comparison has been made with boris johnson and his predecessor to reason may if we call some minds back to her in her premiership she was working with a majority of plus 10 and still fail to get have vision through parliament 3 times cut a long story short then if we look at boris johnson he is working with the majority of minus $45.00 but today he managed to get support for his deal but the fact is his timetable didn't go through and that meant that boris johnson threatened a general 'd election over his failed attempts which actually looks like he's taking a leaf out of theresa may's books the government should cool the general election to be held on the 8th of june they have a simple challenge to the opposition parties who have criticised the government's vision for brics it you have challenge your objectives you have threatened to block the legislation we put before parliament. this is your moment to show you beat it

so this defeat on the program motion essentially 1st of all right back into the european union's court and earlier today the european commission president he said that it has wasted enough time and energy and now is the time to simply move forward in order for it but according to donald tusk all eyes are on forest johnson in parliament as to see what they would then do next you should be ready for you. but while watching closely because. there's a search to train. our dishes so it looks like m.p.'s ploughs the european union we're all running out of patience with breck set and boris johnson's plans if we take a look at the timeline it's been 3 and a half years since that 2016 praxair referendum but as for today yes boris johnson got backing for his deal but he didn't get backing for the timeline essentially

forest johnson between a rock and a hard place formal and american livingston thinks it'll be a long time before the government reaches any final agreement over briggs it with parliament boris has lost more votes in just 3 months as a prime minister than any other prime minister now history was going to be many amendments to this legislation which is a very large bill $110.00 pages covering the environment workers' rights trade deals and so on and most probably even a amendment to say that once this act of parliament is passed only becomes law if a rain referendum means the british people support it so we're not going to be out at the end of this month because this is going to go on for several weeks perhaps even towards the end of the year and no one can foretell where we're going to end up in the government and the opposition need to green how long this act of parliament should be to created how many amendments could be put down but if boris

doesn't agree he's just could be like trench warfare going on we carve 2 week. facebook is going to flag state run media accounts on its platform as part of a bid to protect next year's presidential election from foreign interference social networks also planning to combat in authentic behavior and make political ads more transparent you just on a possible. it all comes from the best of intentions it seems sweep away trolls and other unholy creatures from under the facebook bridge except will team phase will really be able to tell right from wrong in the u.s. we have the benefit of a free press and because of that we think it's especially important to call the media coming from any country around the world is acting as an organ of the government and no the free press mark zuckerberg is clearly implying that the free american media on the one hand and government funded propaganda produces on the

other what he forgets though is that the us has a whole governmental body with the millions of dollars in its coffers tasked with exactly that funding the major voice of america radio free europe the middle east broadcasting networks are just some of the outlets right there in the pocket of the u.s. agency for global media or as it was formally and more well known of the. facebook intentionally or not doesn't seem too eager to look at them this way and controversy doesn't end there the social network has never shied away from censoring what gets into your feed and what doesn't and it can't really boast sharpshooters track record with this tell me this have you ever had bush you know the soup if not you should because it's great it's delicious and if yes you might be a victim of russian deception at least according to facebook it recently banned

a page with some 40000 subscribers that was posting recipes of the russian institution i don't know what's more authentic than a russian posting about how to make beef stroganoff and yet facebook deems itself worthy of calling out inauthentic behavior over the last 3 years we worked identify new and emerging threats and remove gordon. ated inauthentic behavior across our apps is part of our effort to counter foreign influence complaints this morning we removed 4 separate networks of accounts pages and groups and facebook and instagram for engaging in coordinating an authentic behavior 3 of them originated in the round and one in russian so one facebook makes a statement like this we want to help people better understand the sources of news content they see on facebook so they can make informed decisions about what they're reading it seems that the network itself needs some help understanding what's going

on on its pages it could be said of facebook is not independent either because again facebook arguably dring by a particular agenda and when you look at the least of expert facebook called dean in order to help determine the new policy they pretty much made out of the use certain groups that are very well known for a very particular point of view mostly. liberal extreme liberal and so on and so forth what the focal seem to be on is whether the organization can demonstrate to facebook independent editorial control that's a very difficult question i think or the very difficult thing to do to stop me. from. north macedonia is called early elections after a setback in its bid to become an e.u.

member despite the country apparently meeting the conditions laid down pretty mission densher talks along with 5 other balkan states were blocked by france as the devalue micron said that the e.u. needed to reform before expanding of a decision was criticised by other leaders the outgoing european commission boss john claude younker said it was an historic error the saskia taylor has more. powerless the city of love unless you move faster during a which has just been dumped by president not crawl the balkan countries been dealt a bit of a blow off the e.u. said no it twits joining its club and like any wrong it's the e.u. is going to look back with regrets surely a great injustice was inflicted on us in brussels the european union did not deliver on its promise i'm disappointed and angry but what makes this for jackson all the more painful is that northwestern has been gunning to be brought into the

news fold for a long time and has made several significant sacrifices to that end date at all and it's worth mentioning by the e.u. itself for example just over 10 years ago it officially recognized kosovo off to the left as declaration of independence from sabia precisely because it's the position of both nato and the e.u. but perhaps the biggest compromise it made was when it changed its very identity to brussels e.u. member state greece has an ancient region called macedonia and was a bit miffed that just across the border another country was using the very same name taking the high road muster don't you decide to lay the historical dispute to bed under grey sheet itself with the e.u. by adding north before it simple but brussels was playing hard to get over all the muck or was off to 7 hours of wrangling behind closed doors the french president vetoed opening talks on the issue the only one of $28.00 members to do so

and he used the classic it's not you it's me phrase before we decide to enlarge the e.u. we need to reform ourselves the fallout is potentially significant prime ministers i was calling for a snap election ready but more crucially given its violent and troubled part. asked there are now concerns whether this decision will jeopardize peace in the region this is not a moment of glory for the e.u. to refuse acknowledgement of proven progress will have negative consequences including the risk of destabilisation of the western balkans with full impact on the e.u. but that like any decent gentleman who's just not quite ready to close the door on his love interest well ladies and gentlemen i introduce mr donald tusk and i would like to send a message to the new. friends. please the lord to give up.

i fully understand your frustration. because she did your show. we haven't so also not nost joining the e.u. is still in the future of north macedonia but while brussels what some itself may be the balkan country should ask the question what anything at the do or be good enough for those bureaucrats in brussels. r.t. paris. well will and i think i do have been good enough for you that's another question worth pondering hopefully i'll answer it when i return with more in half an hour.

facebook and google started with a great idea and great ideals unfortunately it was also a very dark so. they are constructing a profile of you and that profile is real it's detailed and it never goes away turns out that google is manipulating your opinions from the very 1st character that you type into the search bar it will always favor one dog food over another one comparative shopping service over another and one candidate over another they can suppress certain types of results on what they think you should be seen if they have this kind of power then democracy is an illusion the free and fair election doesn't exist for the more we give them the sooner we are all.
