i believe that this is the real reason however it's still sort of. an improvement on the political level however it's still short of achieving fruitful results and that escalation from the military point of view remains a risk doesn't it and also looking back over the last few years regime change has been a term very much used by the western powers that's been a key stumbling block often in negotiations now we see all four leaders saying they're committed to the sovereignty to the territorial integrity of syria does that mean regime change is now off the table. well i believe so because the reality on the ground. is very evident there is no regime change the regime in syria was able to resist all attempts to topple it and all attempts to destroy syria as a country but at the same time that our hopes by western countries to lead the syrian regime into accepting constitutional changes and by claiming these constitutional amendments the western powers hope to get a share of influence in syria after the crisis which is something that the the syrian regim

however, those are the ones we know about. there is a number that we might not ever know about historically who fought during the war. so our last stop is the beulah baptist church. this church was established in 1863. this was the first african-american church built after union occupation in alexandria. and in the 1860's, during the civil war, this would have been about the edge of town. so further down, this street would have been more countryside. this is also where contraband camps were located. contraband camps were like refugee camps we would recognize today. they were encampments of formerly enslaved people who found refuge and freedom in alexandria, d.c., maryland. the term contraband camps started cropping up very early on into the civil war. in 1861, general benjamin butler -- he was stationed at fort monroe in virginia -- he was the general at this fort, and during his time there, african-americans escaped from their enslaver. they sought refuge at the fort. they were taken in, but the next day there was knocking on

they have, however, arrived in sydney. if you would like to read more about that, have a look at the bbc news app. mallets have a look at other story is in the global media. —— let us look at other stories. we begin with the guardian, which reports on the eu and uk's latest failure to reach an agreement over the irish border issue ahead of a crucial brexit summit later this week. next to germany's deutsche welle and bad news for german chancellor angela merkel‘s sister conservative party, which has suffered significant losses in bavaria's state elections according to provisional results. let's now look at the times which has an interview with author lionel shriver about her criticisms of the #metoo movement, a year on from the campaign to highlight sexual harassment and assault. and on the bbc website, the uk is taking a tentative step towards a radical "green" future with zero emissions of greenhouse gases. it follows last week's un report warning that time is running out to limit a climate change catastrophe. and finally

president are gone as well yes technically theoretically we are seeing a diplomatic and networking however on the ground as the foreign minister said we don't see a real coloration and cooperation in order to shed a light over jim is disappearance certainly said in lots of critical voices globally about what saudi is or is not doing in terms of corporate thing with this investigation but it's not totally isolated it is gaining some sort of regional support from its neighbors. yes well actually first i must emphasize that turkish public opinion also put a lot of pressure on turkish government to enlighten the scase because it also became a national issue for turkey as well however we have been seeing today that organization of islamic kountry is who are standing by saudi arabia as saying that saudi arabia was late to serve forms that were mainly targeted and also we heard to palestine's muhammad of boss jordan and united arab emirates standing by is saudi arabia over jim aftershocks use case then we also saw that today in saudi arabia has launched a campaign on social media and it was criti

you know two days ago i would have said no however. recent bipartisan letter demanding answers demanding an invest. ation and threatening sanctions with the citation of the act is a bit of a surprise that a pleasant one i would say because clearly this time saudi has really triggered the red lines of unacceptable conduct even in our broken dysfunctional government here in the united states and so it's remarkable that m.p.'s has actually managed to bring together our dysfunctional senate and senators to act in a unified voice to demand accountability and promise sanctions which is what they should be doing so it's actually heartening but rula let me put this to you as much as we're glad that western governments the u.s. government is taking interest in this case and in the fate of jamal khashoggi and asking for an investigation asking for questions to be able to isn't this a little bit depressing that it required the disappearance and possible murder of poor job for u.s. senators and a vice president u.s. media to some tom friedman to s

that she will step down and not seek reelection as the chairwoman of the christian democratic union however she intends to remain in the role as chancellor until the end of this term and then step down as had been widely expected what that means those essentially that she would rule at the behest of the party and stead of being sort of ruling while being in charge of the party that backs her up. it's a bold move it's not being done before we haven't really seen this type of phasing out of power since well add now way back in the one nine hundred sixty s. not resulted from stuff from scandal what we have seen is reaction to this from well i would say her political colleagues but they're certainly not friendly christie and the head of the free democratic party he said that chancellor merkel had resigned from the wrong position or was about to step down from the wrong position meaning he thinks she should step down as chancellor it was though this news this what news about you part of came on the back of the election result in hessle which saw another double digit drop for the christian democr

for treatment we don't know yet how serious the injuries are that she sustained the hostage taker however has been hospitalized he sustained critical or life threatening injuries during the police raid when ultimately the situation was was handled and deescalated so that's that what we know about the ticket well being of both the victim and and the hostage taker the train station behind me however it does remain shut emergency services and offices are still going through the station checking for any potential traces that could either help help lead to clues as to what may have happened or of course if there's anything still more sinister lying about the station lying around in the stations that we just get to know when the station will reopen here in cologne and is anyone talking about how the hostage came to be injured were the injuries sustained during the hostage taking or during the release that's that's not clear yet we don't know we know very little about the hostage at the moment what we do know is that the the hostage taker he did sustain the critical life threatening injuries dur

however the company in charge managed to cover up the incident for six years. thanks thanks. thanks. flying over the gulf of mexico our research spots of oil coated gas and bubbling and i'm miles long. people are not the only ones who call the now polluted waters for the indigenous animals there are countless birds and wildlife the stakes are high life or death time is rather. i suppose the big difference is that. rosenberg was a big explosion and people. instantly and and then the most immoral groups released extremely rapidly in the. first the original incident. and you see. it was in the context of her and her. company and the american regulators managed to keep the entire incident pretty client it's one of those no accident so. which is going to six hundred. points of view but over the course of four years with those men use. of oil into the gulf it adds up to being the same kind of water as the deep water the roses. or back in twenty fifteen the company in question said that there was no evidence to suggest an ongoing leak or any significant environmental damage that has

well how some actually the investigation evolves every day however due to saudi's size reluctancy to have a real corporation it turns out to be a third lot because until now turkish persecutors office and turkish police were able to do some searches and the consul general consulate building and the residence in the diplomatic corps however there is no sign of his body so the this is this is a key point for for now but of course now we see that since this incident happened since democracy disappeared. over the second until today turkish officials have leaked some material some evidences to the media and this international media power succeeded pressuring saudi arabia so then they were admission came at first they deny that they had any relation. ship just disappearance of there this international media pressure they admitted that to mount hood shooter was killed inside the consulate and then. turkish capital horse that a very important guest two days ago cia director has bill was here she spent two days in the turkish capital and she arrived here with the thirty seven member delegatio

from the demilitarized zone we see that on turkish partners are doing their best to achieve that however if radical militants oppose this if they make the case ins from inside the it live zone but russia will reserve the right to help the syrian government eliminate these threats and. then just a couple of minutes emmanuel macron who was sitting pretty much one metre away from a lot of our approach and punched back with this a military offensive by the syrian regime and its backers would have an acceptable security and humanitarian consequences to our security interests as well as those of turkey and europe are at stake however for now russia and turkey who are backing opposing sides in war able to side a so-called level read them of understanding this is something paris and berlin are counting on to the memorandum could be this magic element which is keeping the whole alive for the removal of jihad is from live and also the continued existence of the demilitarized zone in this is the kind of cell which is patrolled by the military police of russia and turkey without terrorists and witho

germany as well now germany has actually come out and says we're taking a look at arms sanctions however britain and the us have not used such strong language why is germany leading the way on this why isn't it the us all or britain . well in the case of germany actually what the german government has said and what the german government have done have not necessarily been the same thing for years neva german government is always in one instance reconsidering arms sales to say to arabia and yet the arms sales have always continued it's the same with first spanish government which six weeks ago and instead was going to end bomb sales decided abia and then five weeks ago and i inspire actually it was doing a u. turn and they were going to continue the sales so it isn't just the u.s. and the u.k. that have got to rank hypocrisy at the heart of their foreign policy but in terms of what's happening in the u.k. we know where public opinion stands on the matter because paul after paul has shown that the vast majority of people here are firmly opposed to arm sales to say deity they are in fact pa

this deal however however means that he doesn't have to give any admission of guilt it will take a lot of power from him leaving the board as chairman which some call the fan club of ulan mosque and new board member so that will mean more control over him personally and also the board has to vet for his tweets i think that's going to hurt the most but he's not at all clear yet the department of justice is still investigating this tweet and it may still come back to haunt him all right but it's for us in frankfurt thanks in speeches like to now for months millions of owners of diesel cars here in germany have been concerned that they could soon be prevented from driving in city centers as off the courts ruled that cities could ban polluting diesel engines in the wake of the diesel gate scandal the german government's now working with which to make is to find a solution to the diesel crisis today a committee set to pronounce on whether one solution could be to retrofit diesel engines making them more environmentally friendly the question is does the government or the owner pick up the bi

saudi attempts to hijack the online narrative on this story have proven in effect however past charm offensive aimed at the western mainstream media have now and one doesn't have to scroll back too far to see the evidence of crown prince mohammed bin salma known as m.b.'s effectively took power less than eighteen months ago his promises of reform his decision to finally allow saudi women to drive along with a carefully choreographed media tour in the us went down while working hard. news outlets that are usually skeptical of saudi propaganda including the b.b.c. the guardian the washington post and the new york times body in producing positive stories and editorials you can still find those articles online given what has happened since and the changes that haven't happened the editors who signed off on those pieces probably wish they could take them back you really have to believe that some of it was that well thomas friedman calling the embodiment of saudi arabia's arab spring deliberately ignoring the obvious violation of these principles in the arrests of journalists in the crackd

get tricky damascus what's the province under its control and obviously it is allied with russia however currently this place remains the last stronghold of the syrians are proposition which is backed by turkey and pretty much the rest of the western world obviously that includes france and germany as well and it is still a place where the former news for terrorists and other affiliated groups are still active now all the members of the quartet are saying that the terrorists must be out of their ass to who is more likely to be behind a possible escalation in the province and the consequences as well this is where the sides not only don't see why this is where they're making some rather aggressive war. the first one came from the russian president vladimir putin and i should go in the studio because that i don't believe greeks picked turkey to shortly complete his withdrawal of opposition forces heavy weaponry and military units from the demilitarized zone we see that our techies partners are doing their best to achieve that however if radical militants oppose this if they make the case i

of qatar we've seen how they went to war in yemen now they've done a lot of things in the region however that it will certainly be beneficial for but i think as you know some tightening up their hopes around saudi arabia especially around have been sad man himself that it is also an accident of the they look at the moment for qaddafi and how do you moment for half of what i said at the time it's not unprecedented meaning that these two incidents also occurred in a similar fashion the new thing here is that this is happening not a leader that has been there for a while that has been understood to be against weston dr against western wishes but this is somebody who is a close ally to washington who was a close ally to the west who considered himself to be a former marketing himself actually in the west as somebody who can exact change in saudi arabia that that would make it more similar to the western context so. certainly it is a chance to wear some tensions in the region however there is no direct contact between what is happening to saudi arabia now and the situation with other well let

personally is confident that an agreement will be found because both sides were seeking a dialogue however this is mainly a fiscal issue and the e.c.b. doesn't deal in fiscal issues it deals in monetary policy and so at this point it's not going to get involved it will however continue to watch the situation continue to watch for possible spillovers should italian banks get into more trouble and should that be the case it may adjust its policy we'll be looking for december to see what's going on you know until now and following the financial crisis the e.c.b. has basically used up all that supply of power but it is going to start winding back that stimulus program of its use in. wa. well you mentioned all the risks and all of these these risks that have sprung up and that are there and are you drunk and acknowledge these risks and said they were there but they weren't significant enough to change monetary policy because a lot of them were country specific factors you mentioned the german car industry for example which is having a pretty bad quarter right now but the expectations for the fo

however, it's the trump era. say never, but it seems like it is going to happen. >> do you believe that there is this possibility of bait and switch as critics are saying regarding roe versus wade here in that you heard what susan collins was saying, she felt comfortable. critics are saying, no, he's saying one thing but will do something else. >> i don't understand necessarily where critics are getting that analysis from that he says one thing and then does another because from his legal history of, you know, 12 years sitting as a judge in the court of appeals, he has been known to take stances that differ from, say, the bush administration where he had served when it came to enemy combat antants. >> you know, as we've been watching this and republicans have supported him and we're seeing it right down the line except for one expects the vote to go the other way with lisa murkowski, was this because of brett kavanaugh himself and the history you just describe or more because they wanted to have the seat, right?

is biggest arms customer however the president trump is under a degree of pressure from congress the senate committee the judicial committee has sent him a letter invoking the magnitsky act now that is an act that provides sanction or human rights accountability around the globe the senators saying that if saudi is found to be involved in the disappearance of the journalist then sanctions must be imposed even at the very highest level as the letter puts it now from the sending of that letter to a decision being taken is a time span of one hundred twenty days instead of the ledger synced in terms of the legislation so president trump is under pressure from his congress to take some kind of action should saudi involvement be proved in the disappearance of so he is under pressure it's a bipartisan move by congress keeping pressure to bear on the president to take some kind of action should the saudis be involved in this disappearance and because of that pressure in the form of the magnitsky act mike this is not just up to president trump anymore is it. well it does in the end come down

below four percent which is very positive and has steadily decreased since two thousand and nine however we also have to look at how many people have jobs that is the great and if you look at that number it's still far below where it was before the financial crisis so there's still lots of people who are potentially dropped out of the labor market or they don't show up in unemployment statistics but that doesn't mean that they don't want to work. from the university thank you for your insight. count as hosting senior ministers from thirteen nations later this month to discuss the future of the world trade organization however only ministers from quote likeminded countries are invited and that means that the united states is off the list as is china the like minded countries include australia japan south korea and the european union the talks will aim to find consensus on reforming the w t o when those countries which believe in international free trade agree others can join the talks later the canadian trade minister said u.s. president trump has been repeatedly critical of the w t o's s

things when they don't like them however i believe the overwhelming will of the libyan people and the social fabric of libya the tribes of libya the townspeople of libya the civil society of libya the women of libya the men of libya will not allow that to happen these militias have been quite tested during the last few weeks and they have proven to be more fragile than people think and if the people really express their will as they have been doing in demonstrations and petitions and so on i believe that the will of the libyan people who will overwhelm everyone it is my own or to put my name forward and i hope that other libyans would put their names food it doesn't matter if i win or lose what is what matters is that the process itself wins now what would you say to those who say that this is explicitly any liberal idea that what led to the destruction of libya in the first place in a day dia that people going to the polls is more sacrosanct than providing the basic security and they did that you have to take risks and risk more violence in order to test out here political mechanisms
