good afternoon great to have you with us this is r.t. international. russia and the u.s. have traded violent accusations at the u.n. security council this turkey with western backing warns it's a matter of time before it intervenes militarily in syria is a blip. it's like the end of the world breaking point babies freezing to death and it led push these people are begging the world to listen to their plight and so i ask how much longer will we tolerate these headlines there with their this recall the united nations security council meetings called that often when militants were marching towards damascus with a full backing of some western states playing the card of suffering civilians and a long standing truce every time your cherished terrorists come under threat candidly it is a marvel to me that our russian colleagues can speak of ceasefires and political solutions in this chamber with
6:02 am
a straight face when their own warplanes have struck hospitals and the homes of children how can i respond to your accusations of the killing of the civilian population whatever i would say you don't listen you keep talking about targeted bombings of schools hospitals and refugee camps and what harm wouldn't that find a response that's a win win technique who will try to decode it whether it's true or not. a turkish military convoy has already been filmed crossing the syrian border a large line of tanks armored vehicles and supply trucks are reportedly moving towards the outskirts of a lip syrian army is currently trying to drive militants out of the province and the senior correspondent breaks down the conflict. turkey is part of the ceasefire agreement had 3 main responsibilities one separate the jihad distin the terrorists from the moderate opposition to get them to stop shooting and

here to the ceasefire 3 facilitate the opening of an important highway turkey failed with number one bungled number 2 didn't even bother with the 3rd. there's only so long you can tolerate being shot at and shelled by by al qaida the dominant islam is traction they need lip the syrian military went into action and returned near enough a 3rd of a blip because they said they had no choice turkey wouldn't or couldn't hold up its end of the bargain. offerings of failed to separate militants from terrorists in the timeframe under the 2018 agreements at the same time provocations from the lives own shelling of the syrian armed forces civilian targets and the russian air base have continued but if you are edouard and you're watching the syrian military
6:04 am
steamrolled the rebels you armed and funded for years you'd be worried too worse watching hundreds of thousands of refugees flock to your border that has been an unfortunate side effect of the syrian operation so to stop that exodus at the one who's threatened to do the one thing that could turn those hundreds of thousands into millions of refugees invade syria because human southern. turkey has made all kinds of preparations to implement its operational plan and it will as in every operation we see we can come suddenly one night to put it more clearly operation. it is now a matter of time we will not leave little to the regime that still does not understand our country's determination in this matter and so those who encourage it we never intend to shoulder the burden that the developments in this region will place on our country. thousands of turkish troops hundreds of tanks and artillery
6:05 am
pieces are being pumped into it and an army diplomacy thankfully is in overdrive but so far hasn't worked the turks have rejected all compromise they demond asaad give up everything he has retaken the u.s. backing has been is important because there was a period a few months ago a very poor relations between washington and ankara and the russians of course for terry trying to take advantage of that turkey over to their side much more is off to a greater country could serve washington i think is realized the danger of turkey splitting away from a turmoil from the western alliance completely so they are now giving him backing but as i said at the beginning it's terrible mistake for turkey to think that it's going to fall at the stage they should try and recognize the new realities of the situation do what they promised to do and so much turkey and they zing syria

potentially getting in a fight with russia isn't just the worst case scenario it would be a catastrophe of unimaginable proportions but tension attending a regional war global we all understand that and none of us wants to see it happen . well i'd say none of us had a very good job or sation with the president her while i respect him the fact is that he's fighting on to lead he doesn't want people to be killed by the thousands and hundreds of thousands quietly fanning everyone's already hot tempers is the united states is showing turkey of support the modeling concessions from asaad that pretty much ensure talks will fail see we're in a strange situation we're both closer to the end of the syrian war then we've ever been and we are also closer to the worst escalation this war has ever seen. the suspected shooter who killed 9 people in western

6:13 am
he's moved away from those centrist ideologies that he once espoused when it outlined the tough stance on immigration another policy direct from the playbook of the pen so by grasping at ideas that some see as being from the hard right wing is he likely to lose voters from the left and from muslims but there are some areas particularly some local municipalities some towns in areas where this is a concern for french voters and so what is doing the context of it is to try to reassure where there are law muslim communities muslim communities that the republicans still searching the values of the secular republic. the election whether that will succeed or not remains to be seen in the opinion polls or not don't look like there were calls for next month's elections seen as being

medical staff according to a national health survey last year alone a quarter of all staff were subjected to at least one case of harassment that's adding pressure to staff already on the strain 4 out of 10 complained of feeling unwell because of stress at work social activist lea jasper and underwater columnist for the new york observer debated the issue. the n.h.s. is now saying they won't treat people who are overweight they won't treat people who smoke they won't treat people who have made certain comments they won't treat people who provide that you cannot reasonably expect these people to pay for n.h.s. care that they do not receive so what you must still do is also excuse these people from paying the elements of tax that would go towards the n.h.s. i think that when you look at the n.h.s. stuff they're overwhelming concern is to provide support to help people in need so they do. prepared to put up with quite a lot i think where it really crosses the line is all severe verbal
