the situation in the water own country for now watching that with this is our diplomatic editor james bays and james. first of all i mean let's turn it around he looked at the the latest since an instance that could've quite quickly spiraled out of control and he had praise for all concerned to say that the russians were trying to contain the event and not allow it to the rail the bigger process of calls and talk about the downed russian warplanes. yes i mean two important developments in the last twenty four hours that he is referring to here one the very negative development as he said very worrying that could escalate the situation which is the downing of that russian jet and he's calling for restraint from all sides but the other thing of course is the new plan for it live that joint plan between the russians and the turks of how to move forward in it live with the new deescalation zone there a separation zone between both sides here welcoming that sings a very positive development a very important outcome he says he welcomes the fact that diplomacy has produced progress of course ther

villages near the turkish border we will hear more on that shortly but first here's a diplomatic editor james bay is on the talks in new york these were the strongest comments yet by the secretary general on the situation in adlib he warned that if there was an all out assault it would be the worst thing to happen in the syrian war which is already lost in more than seven years it leaves the last so called the escalation zone in syria it must not be transformed in to a bloodbath would an all out offensive on it live a place which has such a large civilian population in your view amount to a war crime and i think what is important at the present moment is not to classify what was not yet happened is to make sure that it doesn't happen which means it is important that those specially the city get into a standard process find a way in which it is possible to isolate terrorist groups and it is possible to create a situation in which civilians will not be the price paid to solve the problem of evil it. the secretary general spoke just hours after another meeting of the u.n. security council it's now d

its ambassador nikki haley has been pointing the finger of blame at russia our diplomatic editor james bays has more from the united nations one country in particular was singled out by the u.s. in a particularly fahri security council meeting and that country is russia the key haley saying that russia is cheating on the sanctions on north korea saying this in an open meeting open chamber of the u.n. security council saying it was a concern a plan by the russians they were just turning a blind eye this was a systemic plan by the russians to thwart the sanctions let's listen to ambassador nikki haley why after voting for sanctions for eleven different times is russia now backing away from we know the answer it's because russia has been cheating. and now they've been caught. despite its repeated support for u.n. sanctions russia is actively working to undermine the enforcement of the security council sanctions on north korea certainly trying to use the opportunity of their presidency and as you say trying to make some of these issues and disagreements very public this is notable though we hav

presented his plan aimed at preventing bloodshed to the security council our diplomatic editor james bays has more on that from un headquarters in new york. i think many diplomats believe it's not now a case of if there is an offensive in need live but when despite those stefan de mistura the u.n. special envoy has come up with a new plan to stop the bloodshed he first said he'd like to give the security council the plan in a private session but then and thus the nikki haley the u.s. ambassador who's the current this month president of the security council said no we want to hear your plan in public and this is what he said ideally all militant fighters should be off with the line to move their own military presence beit is our way i did beat away from populated think. at this same time and here comes that message and image i got from the population. i mean being indicating that this is what they've been asked from door that i would look to move out the day may how does day mate. creamy there be able to get to be more be left on that so one of the leavers for this plan is that people powe

concluded the two individuals they have named are from the russian intelligence unit the g r u james bays a diplomatic editor listening along to that as well james let you explain some of the more pertinent things that i heard talking about arrest warrants. yes arrest warrants european arrest warrant which the u.k. still part of the use of that is already in place and also an interpol red notice which means that these two individuals would be arrested anywhere in the world if they were to leave russia but remember russia does not extradite it says ins it's in the russian constitution so it seems difficult for the u.k. to actually get these people arrested it's interesting though that she's making the case it's not just about these two these were agents of the russian state so the russian state is responsible british government minister ben wallace the security minister has gone further says that it's vladimir putin who needs to be held responsible also while these proceedings are going under way we're telling you kemal that there has been a statement by some of the close allies of the u.k

address to the united nations general assembly so far very focused on iran our diplomatic editor james bays listening in. the united nations i'm saying james so far he's been talking iran. yes and that has been the theme of his speeches to the general assembly in recent years it's always been a single focus really for prime minister netanyahu often comes along with some exhibits shall i call them that some might call them props to show the general assembly he's making bold claims i am not a nuclear expert but he is saying now that there is a new facility or a warehouse he says where iran has been story nuclear equipment and materiel he says and he talks about some radioactive material being removed from their nose suggestion that that was a nuclear weapons production facility no mention of centrifuges he says the information is already been shared with the some of the intelligence agencies he now says he's sharing it with the international atomic energy agency is worth telling you that he came out earlier this year as he said about an atomic car cards and the general view from nuclear exper

that was another issue that antonio terrorism touched on let's talk now to our diplomatic editor james bays james there was no overarching principle with mystical terrorists as such but i guess the umbrella effect was the clock is ticking on all these issues issues that we've tried to address before and we haven't managed it so far. and if we don't work together on those issues we're never going to solve them a plea that countries need to work together a plea for multilateralism and warning of the dangers of populism and nationalism and i think it will be a very interesting to compare that speech to the speech from president trump we've not seen any quotes from the trump speech yet but we have heard from the white house that this is a speech that will talk about national sovereignty and the importance of national sovereignty so quite possibly going back to the theme of america first from the original inauguration speech of president trump and so i think there is a a conflict potentially between the speech of the secretary general who didn't name any names any leaders at all in the speech di

israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu benny addressed the issue in his speech diplomatic editor james bays has more. when the israeli prime minister spoke to the un there was one thing he hardly talked about the palestinians he instead focused on iran claiming israel had discovered a new nuclear storage facility in tehran even when told to post about the strength of his relationship with the trumpet ministration so i want to use this opportunity to express israel's appreciation to president trump and ambassador here really for the unwavering support they provided israel at the united nations the palestinian president gave his message the moment he took to the podium and put salacious little jerusalem is not for sale i know how close to sharm been in the palestinian people's rights are not up for bargaining. he went on to express his frustration at the actions of the trumpet ministration and. we awaited his peace initiative with that most patient but we were shocked by decisions and actions he undertook that completely contradict the role and commitment of the us towards the peace process.
