well i mean this was stopped really being a deescalation zone where the syrian regime led by the russians started bombarding it a couple of weeks ago and essentially bombarding it into submission that is how the russians and the syrians got the opposition groups there to give up their weapons and so it is that part of the eastern part of dara while the province along the jordanian border is essentially calm now apart from this one small area because there's a cease fire holding on the rebels have surrendered their weaponry it will need the russians to make sure that there are no reprisal attacks there that needs the russians to make sure that it stays calm the jordanians as i say making will want to keep an eye on the russians to make sure they do that bernard thank you. still to come here on al-jazeera we'll meet four generations of one family who say they faced injustice for decades. standing firm with his asian allies america's top diplomat shrugs off north korean accusations that he is behaving like a gangster. the in with. hello there rain is still plaguing parts of japan recently it

is working to avoid what he calls a humanitarian catastrophe the area in part of the so-called deescalation zone which is supposed to prevent fighting near the jordan and israel border areas of syria laurie chalons is covering those developments for us in moscow so really what's coming out of the statement so far from these two officials. well the jordanian foreign minister came to moscow hoping that he might be able to persuade the russians to put in place some sort of cease fire hole to send the military offensive that's going on there right at this moment which russia is a part of because it's assisting the syrian government ground forces with a huge bombing campaign he does not seem to have won that from the russians i don't think from what i can see that's come out of this meeting the russians and the jordanians said that they decided in this meeting to fulfill the agreements on all aspects of the disk the escalation zone but then a lot of rob also said that the fight against terrorists in southern syria remains a priority and that terrorists are controlling about forty percent he said

the deescalation zones are kind of like the arab israeli peace process they're there on paper but they don't really exist they're a bit of a figment of people's imaginations the syrians and the russians prove those the escalation zones but said they have to keep fighting terrorists which of course every government should do but they define anybody that they don't like as a terrorist therefore the fighting continues and this we've seen this happen throughout the country so there they deescalation zones were a means that were used for two reasons one to heighten the diplomatic leverage that russia has including a little bit with iran and turkey in the broader process of political reconciliation in syria which would eventually go back to geneva but also to increase the leverage that the syrian armed forces have in the short run to be able to continue operations as they've done in several parts of the country near damascus and now in the south and they will continue their last push to the western part of the province in the south so the deescalation issue shouldn't be taken literally but a

syria that really has been a failure that we're not really in a position to broker any kind of deescalation and that area hopefully the russians can you know that you know this points to a serious paradox in american policy we have these so-called neo conservatives here who are the most militant interventionist especially in the middle east they're also the most militant li anti russian and are just in a complete meltdown now over the prospect of this summit coming up what's ought of course is that israel and mr netanyahu have a very good relationship with russia and mr putin so there i think there are things that can be it on the ground there for a mosque that the people here just are getting the dealt out of the picture that's a really good point let me go to peter on that i mean this is a it's widely speculated i know that the nato allies are terrified of meeting with putin because he might make a deal over their heads ok all right fine that's a topic for another day but i mean the issue of syria is very interesting and and what change says i think makes a lot of sense of something could

it's extraordinary already because you have a president who believes in normalization and deescalate the escalation of tensions you have on the other hand the congress which is determined to stop him and which was passed these are fairly unconstitutional law these sanctions regime which he previously had complete control over so really yes half of one half of america wants to normalize as a world establishment and the other half in washington wants to keep the tensions are high as i say for their own reasons for the reasons of the benefits of the military industrial defense complex that the gains from the fear of everybody and therefore justifies its defense spending on the basis of the alleged threat from the from the russians the russians for their part have no reason to be threatening anybody they're perfectly big enough they do not want to be overreaching themselves and there is no basis for this for these accusations against the russians whatsoever as i say apart from the benefit to the elite which is pointing the accusing fingers at russia this this strange relationship that do

we have an escalated situation with the north korean government, he's trying to deescalate that. we have to give him credit for that. we may not like the messaging there's an expression in basketball, sometimes people are playing the man when they need to play the ball. we may not like the coarseness of his rhetoric, this guy has an amazing political instinct. he knows we have to right side the trade situation. he knows we have to right size and fix the international community as it relates to our alliances. >> but he doesn't seem to believe his intel agencies over vladimir putin. i think he does. >> what makes you think that? >> he said as much from the cabinet room. i think he was probably reluctant -- >> he was sticking to his script. you say him reading his script so different than what he was riffing in helsinki. which was the real trump? that. >> they both are. that's why your ratings are up, both of those things are the real trump. >> how can you believe vladimir putin -- >> can i -- >> hold on, let me ask you the question. how can you believe vladimir putin when he is so

its relationship with russia for instance the istana process in terms of deescalation and reconciliation that russia is involved in and leading as well is iran as well as turkey and the syrian government is going for all intents and purposes very successful so in terms of the migrant crisis the best thing that can improve the crisis from the syrian point of view is to stabilize the country not just from the fighting in violence point of view but also economically and again lifting sanctions the e.u. and the united states are playing a central role in suffocating syria economically and really driving some of the economic hardship that the country is suffering from but the european market crisis isn't soley about syrian refugees we're talking about central asia or contributing a large portion of these migrants that are beseeching the borders in front ears of europe and also from north africa and also from east africa so let's not forget about these regions in terms of their contribution to the modern crisis and certainly stabilizing libya and having a working government there in a working

we're seeing evidence of that in kimberley and maybe hard to say but is that likely to escalate or deescalate. at this point it appears the united states is quite comfortable with the escalation if you look at the statements that are being made by a number of different members of the trumpet ministration and this goes beyond sort of just the united states and iran the united states is accusing iran of many things including destabilizing the broader region that's one of the things they felt that the. did not address so it appears that the united states is not only escalating the this but continues to do so given the fact that one of the staff changes they've made in recent months is the adding of the national security advisor john bolton and john bolton is very very clear about his views of iraq he believes that it's destabilizing the region he believes that it is anti israel and this is a very israel friendly administration and he even called for the overthrowing of the iran government so it does not appear at this point although they have said in the past they're willing to negotiate with ir

to respecting the sovereignty but turkey continues to violate its commitments including in the deescalation zone to be glib. as it was behind a car bomb attack in southern philippines and eleven people were killed when an exploded after it was stopped at a checkpoint and city that's just across from mindanao island where they have been decades of conflict between government forces and fighters for civilians including a mother and her child were killed in the blast. from the philippines capital manila. it happened early choose the morning when a van coming from the hinterlands of basilan drove and stopped at a checkpoint near an army detachment in a sea land upon inspection according to the philippine army that's when the single passenger there to needed the bomb it left several members of the forces of the military dead and their dependents according to the military the impact was felt as far as fifty meters this is actually one of the rare times when an attack has happened over the last few years there has been relative peace there since the former leader of the abu sayyaf group is the lon

seeking to deescalate, particularly in the northwest, where a small contingent of u.s.arn, putin has backed out of previous peace agreements in syria, driving the ongoing civil war in that country that is now in its eighth year. i want to bring back my panel for this discussion. evan, let me read you a tweet from michael carpenter. carpenter was the pentagon's -- just so everybody knows, the pentagon's top russia official. he writes, trump wants to replicate the disastrous deal with putin from july 2017 when they agreed on a deescalation agreement. the only side that deescalated was the anti assad opposition, while russian, iranian and syrian government forces annihilated them. what is the likelihood that trump walks away from this putin meeting with any sort of deliverable on syria? >> i think if anything, he'll claim that the deliverable he's obtained is that russia will commit to pushing iran out of syria. the thing is, russia does not have the power to push iran out of syria. if anything, it's the opposite. there's no way iran is getting out of syria because it's pu

city of sochi representatives from russia iran are attending the summit to discuss the issues of deescalation zones in the formation of a syrian constitutional committee they'll also discuss pressing humanitarian problems like the right of return for syrian refugees earlier this month syrian rebels said they would boycott the talks but there are reports that some factions might have changed them lines and are sending delegations off to roll on the abdel-hamid has the latest now from sochi. certainly the government delegation and to some extent russia are coming into the storks in a position of strength thanks to the territorial gains made over the past twelve months and recently for example retaking control of the borders of jordan and israel. un envoys to find them is to or is also attending these talks what could be expected well it's very difficult to said this stage but we do know that they're going to talk about the calls to choose then whether it is amending the one that was passed in two thousand and twelve or rewriting an entire constitution now the message coming from russia is obvio

more on exports than the united states does actually china is still trying to a certain degree to deescalate things they have not for example chinese consumers to boycott you as good something like that has happened before with other trade five china other asian countries that is not happening yet and also on the washington side donald trump is to not starting to block chinese investments in the united states to the united states or in a certain sense where we do not see a full escalation of the situation and that might also be a reason why wall street at the moment remains a rather calm actually in the past couple of days we had a rather strong showing here of wall street after the drop a good thousand points in the second half of june so there's still hope that things might not escalate but at the same time there's no clear sign that china is going to back off. from keeping us guessing they're clear richardson in washington and us cause in new york thank you very much both of you for the analysis. british prime minister of the reason may reached a breakthrough in her breasts that strategy

ministers of russia and jordan and the question that comes to mind is is russia still committed to the deescalation zone deal at this point which it helped to broker. the russian and syrian explanation of syrian government explanation would be that yes they are committed to these and they're also committed to fighting terrorists and of course everybody in the world fights terrorists and you define the terrorists yourself so that the escalation zones really are not a completely integrated serious project and fighting terrorism is something that you decide how to do. based on who you designate as a terrorist so these kinds of thousands wrongly and study of their own actions in the syrian government have just now decided to completely try and resolve this militarily and think they can right that's exactly what they're doing they've done this ever since the deescalation zones were created about half a year ago and then they've done this in different parts of the country they did it and east of damascus syria they did it in the north and the west along the lebanese border another doing it in the south a

province both admitted there is a cause for concern the area of that eye is part of the so-called deescalation zone it's supposed to prevent fighting near the jordan and israeli border meanwhile both israel and jordan are refusing to open their borders to assist the refugees fleeing southern syria the un now says as many as two hundred seventy thousand people have been forced from their homes by the fighting to recapture that our province chance try third is in the israeli occupied golan heights the kind of reports that we're hearing of the tens of thousands of people are living in pretty appalling conditions. desperate situation there very little shelter many of them obviously without tents the israeli government's position here is very specific prime minister netanyahu has said that as you say the borders will not be opened here but as you know i was also said that the israelis will continue to deliver humanitarian assistance where they can and there's also been a large troop deployment in this area reinforcement of israeli troops that are in this area anyway and have been here for decades b

hurt car exporting germany heart take a listen now to the chancellor speaking of parliament a deescalation in the trade brinkmanship. could it but right now we're witnessing something falter which we've always considered a constant namely the role of multilateral organizations we now have tariffs on a limb in human steel and we have a far more serious issue to levies be raised on cars imported to the u.s. because of the import with all and ladies and gentlemen some of this has the traits of a trade conflict i'm not ready to call it anything else just yet but it's a lot but it is worth putting all our efforts into trying to defuse this conflict before it does become a war though of course both sides have to be involved in all of that something and that's really why that. what a warning there from chancellor merkel in her speech came as the european commission president headed to the u.s. for talks with washington the e.u. well has a lot to lose in a trade conflict with the united states which might be one compelling reason to stand together but the union also needs reform with some analysts

and russia agreed circumstantially on a deescalation in which of course the syrian regime and the russiansime to finish the war elsewhere before they would for use in here the united nations has urged jordan to open its borders and to take in more refugees but jordan has already said it can't handle anymore where these people are going to go. well eventually i think some of them are going to go to jordan but i think also we will see a lot of internally displaced people and maybe one of the results of these negotiations with the russians and the syrian regime might be if they take them in i don't want to talk about the conditions under which they are going to be taken in internally displaced and also want to highlight the fact that there are certain areas around and in the south refugee camps which are basically on no man's land neither jordan all the syrian regime nor the americans really feel responsible for that and of course the plight of these refugees gives rise to jihad as groups through militias vigilantes criminal gangs mafia smugglers whatever you can make what about israel in all

for their contribution in other words offering the very and conservatives a face saving way to deescalate this and we've also heard members of the varian conservative party saying in fact there is now a greater momentum toward discouraging what's called secondary migration that is to say movement by migrants who have been registered at border countries to move on to other countries a significant movement to try to limit that we know that europe works slowly but i think there certainly is a feeling here in this party's headquarters that that some wheels have been set in motion that wouldn't have been otherwise so a potential for compromise if there's no grandstanding in munich and then to crane in berlin and devotees mechanic munich thank you both. israel has stepped up its security in the border region between syria and the israeli occupied golan heights as the violence in syria's derive province continues thousands of syrians have set up makeshift camps near the israeli border and israeli government has said it will continue to provide medical treatment to wounded civilians and aid to sy

that did occur in brussels in other words an effort to really give the c.s.u. a face saving way to deescalate the whole conflict and i think there are members of the c.s.u. who have said all along we don't want to break with the chancers christian democrats we don't want to see this government fall apart certainly those voices will also have been heard today in the meetings in in munich and i think the people here in berlin at c.d.u. headquarters will very much be banking on that particular group within the c.s.u. holding sway this evening. that was in the crane in berlin. as well and you know thank you to you both. and polls have opened in mexico's elections after the most violent lead up to a vote in the country's history at least a hundred and thirty politicians have been murdered since campaigning began and presidential frontrunner andres manuel lopez obrador arrived early to cast his vote it's his current bid for the presidency the next wayne former mayor of mexico city could add to the two parties that have governed mexico for nearly a century now let's have a look at some of the other

we've heard statistics of how many officers have received deescalation training and the concern on the use of force issues. what is of grave concern to me is the disconnect of practice of officers on the streets. i don't know how certain behaviors and practices will be changed, but they do need to be changed to undo years of abuse and mistrust in our communities, especially communities of colors. i leave you with two questions. one, where does the police commission and the san francisco police department stand on the issue of i.c.e.? two, where does the police commission and the san francisco police department stand on san francisco being a sanctuary city? there's one comment that -- another comment. i understood that there were two people that were hospitalized, you know, from this incident, and no mention was mentioned about that. i understand they were both released from the hospital now. thank you. >> commissioner mazzucco: thank you. public comment's now closed. commissioner dejesus? >> commissioner dejesus: i guess -- i know there were five uses of force. the five uses of force,

i'm worried how easy this would be to escalate and what can be done to deescalate?'ve seen the extreme with the shooting of steve scalise. we've seen the most egregious form of political discord can come when you see someone shooting a congressman because you disagree with his politics. now we're seeing democratic leaders like maxine waters ramp this up and call for these crowds and call for an escalation. >> neil: and in the maxine waters case, chuck schumer did call her out. >> he did. >> neil: and nancy pelosi dialled it back. but we saw the racial related incidents in charlottesville. but how do you get everybody to dial it back a notch? >> let's say about charlottesville. we did respond and the rnc passed a resolution condemning the events in charlottesville. chuck schumer was late to the day against maxine waters. they have to do it over and over again. they have to be vocal and out front of it. it will take democrats and republicans. if this happened to a democrat, i'll be out there doing this, too. this is not good for our democracy. we can have a difference

that they are behind closed doors discussions to deescalate this. >> steve, let me ask you how this endsthe theories that people have and you alluded to it is that right now the markets are not -- are pretty sanguine, chinese markets have gone down but u.s. markets have not so much. at some point that that will happen. that the ceos whom trump listens to for counsel will call him and say, knock this off. the "wall street journal" will continue to editorialize against it and the trump administration will back down. does that strike you as a likely scenario? >> i think it's certainly a possible scenario. first, i would respectfully slightly disagree with mohammed about who wins this trade war. he is right that our economy is certainly a lot stronger than europe's. i'm not sure i would argue it's stronger than china's and vis-a-vis china they have a number of other levers to pull, for example, they own $1.2 trillion of our treasuries. imagine if they suddenly decided they didn't want to own those anymore. i'm not sure i would completely bet on the outcome here if it goes all the way to a fu
