nato is following developments closely. >> a nato state comes under attack. nato provides the necessary support and now turkey which has been attacked is exercising its rights to ensure its safety. we will continue to exercise any rights we have according to international allow until the end. we're also asking for nato to be prepared. >> meanwhile the united states and turkey agreed on a plan on a buffer zone to fight inside syrian territory. it's a long held demand from turkey. the details haven't yet been worked out. >> this is the area that isil controls and this is where the proposed buffer zone would be. >> an expression of solidarity for turkey, but not a lot else. >> i think turkey got what it wanted out of that meeting to get that expression of solid dart to essentially provide the political cover the political backing that helped turkey in its attacks not just on isil positions in syria but also on those kurdish positions p.k.k. positions in northern iraq. turkey has been very careful as far as we can see here to try and point out that it isn't targe

kani: first, the nato comment that instability is that the border of turkey or nato's doorstep, as he put it, it is really inside turkey. for the last 31 years there has been a big conflict inside turkey between the kurds and the turks. over 40,000 have been killed. the nato secretary did not mention that. as far as the rise of isis and turkey's decision to allow its air base to be used against it, for a year now, kurds on the ground especially inside syria and iraq have been fighting isis. by some accounts, they are the most effective ground troops, boots on the ground that the u.s. has cooperated with, and isis has had major setbacks. all of a sudden now, turkey wants to join the fight, but it really does not want to fight isis. it wants to fight the kurds. i do not know what is going on at the white house, hoping that turkey will fight isis. it does not want to. it does not have the desire. it does not have the wish and also soliciting turkish help to fight isis is like using a bloody towel to clean the mess in the kitchen, if you will -- mop the floor, if you will. for two years,

planes flying under nato authority launched a sustained attack of serb military targets, nato's most extensive military action since the alliance was created after world war ii. the airstrikes ended the siege of sarejvo. >> this is an important moment in the painful history of bosnia. for today, parties have agreed to put down arms and roll up their sleeves and work for peace we need to be clear-eyed about this for it matters what the parties do, not simply what they say. >> by the end of november in dayton, ohio, the warring party sandy an agreement ending the con frequent that had claimed some 100,000 lives. today, 20 years later, the remains of the victims are city being found in the mass graves. paul beban al jazeera, new york. >> on this 20th anniversary. kill killings, i am joined by mohammed shakerby, the former bosnian bosnian ambassador to the u.n. and the bureau chief for al jazeera balkans joining us from washington, d.c. tonight. thank you for joining us. bam ambassador, i will start with you. first, let's go back in time. and you were bosnia's ambassador at the time of t

>> i think crucially what will happen today is that both sides, nato and the sorry the remainder of natoone side and 27 countries and turkey on the other want to feel out exactly where they stand. from the turkish point of view will they get the support and solidarity for what they are trying to do to what extent are the strong objections from nato allies about the involvement against the kurds and what exactly are turkey's plans in relation to i.s.i.l. there has been talk of an i.s.i.l.-free zone being established by turkey across the entire what is it 900 kilometer length of the turkish/syria border that sounds very, very sweeping in its scope. how would it be achieved in practical terms, to what extent will turkish requests we have heard in the past for no fly zone in northern syria be welcomed or turned down by nato allies so there is a lot to discuss but as you say at this point there is no indication that turkey is asking nato allies to contribute military hardware to bring in forces into turkey to help in any of its objectives either against the p.k.k. or against i.s.i.l. >> okay

nato met for an emergency session. representatives of member states discussed the ability on turkey's quarters. >> it is right and timely that we hold this meeting today to address the instability on the turkish doorstep and on nato's orders. nato is following developments closely and will stand in strong solidarity with our ally turkey. >> turkey has responded without outside help. it is up to nato to this side of this was a case for the alliance is usual defense clause. they have made it clear that strikes are set to continue. sarah: let's bring in amanda at the european policy center in brussels. we just heard in that report the president saying that these these talks with the pkk can no longer continue. why has he changed his tune on this? >> think it has more to do it the mastech politics than anything else. in the recent elections, his party lost a significant amount of support while the kurdish party half the 10% and got into the turkish parliament. there hasn't been a government formed coalition. it talks are o

for the middle east a new nato for the middle east. where you take countries like egypt, jordan saudi arabia arab emirates. as a side matter some participation and some form with the israelis in order to make it clear that an expansion by the iranians will not be permitted and will not be satisfactory. and perhaps with the united states' leadership in a new nato in the middle east we can provide some stability. >> i might say one more thing on this before we go. >> before i come up with a question. >> well before. it's terribly important that we build up the united states military not for war. and i think that we've been too quick sometimes for that. i think we need to build up the united states military for peace. its peace strengthens the reagan model. >> if you do nato in the middle east that means one attack on one is an attack on all. meaning if there's an attack on the united arab emirates it's an attack against the u.s. and we're at war on the ground. that is what you want? >> as president i think i would have the ability to def

activity which it has called for them si meeting of this nato allies. >> yes.illage behind me is the syrian border village that is controlled by i.s.i.l. we can actually see turkish military patrolling the border area. turkey did request the extraordinary meeting of nato not to ask for military help but turkey wants to update its allies about what it perceives as threats that this country is facing as well as inform them of the military actions that they have been taking. at the end of the day nato the united states the coalition, they have welcomed turkey's decision to directly engage i.s.i.l. they have been demanding this really for some time now and some are calling this a game changer. but what is controversial will be turkey's decision to simultaneously declare war on the kurdistan workers party or the p.k.k. yes, the united states and the eu considers the p.k.k. a foreign terrorist organization but they have been urging restraint, urging turkey to relaunched the peace process and they believe this is the way forward. why? because this can complicate the f

but the nato sec general was short on specifics but he was asked if there was any possibility that nato would be involved in a so-called buffer zone an isle -free zone on the turkish-syrian border and here's what he had to say. >> nato is part of these efforts, and its something that is discussed on a bilateral basis between turkey and the united states. i welcome the increased efforts by turkey to fight isil. >> turkey has a powerful military. and it has well placed air bases, and it's a front line state, so it has strategic importance. but it also brings complications because of its dual track military policy. the fact that it's attacking not only isil, but pkk kurdish bases in northern iraq. on the ground in syria allied kurdish forces have been the most effective opponents from the west point of view in the fight against isil. and they have almost been the ground forces if you like for the western alliance, so the western countries the clarity on what are turkey's objectives in the fight against the pkk. and if they respond to the pkk attacks, and they call for a peace process to be

according to nato, that will remain a bilateral issue between the americans and turkey, and nato as an alliance will not get involved although it welcomes the broader involvement of turkey in the fight against isil in syria. >> barnaby just help us understand or colorrify because you've got turkey reportedly hitting kurdish fighters in syria, who have been key to the battle against isil, and you have them hitting isil. how is the u.s. dealing with these opposing dynamics? >> >> this is the complication, and this is why some nato countries undoubtedly see turkey's involvement against isil as a blessing but one that brings with us potential headaches because the turks have been quite clear that they'll go after isil, but they will go after kurdish forces in iraq at the same time. as you were saying yesterday those accusations denied by turkey that it had been targeting kurdish forces in syria, the same kurdish forces that have effectively been the ground forces of the western alliance which is bombing isil from the ground, and which in terms of actual fighting has been about the most eff

turkey's nato partners have warned turkey that it should continue with the negotiations.aura:'s turkey using this fight against the islamic state, this newfound fight, as a cover when it really wants to attack the pkk? stephen:the central difference between nato and turkey is that they have different priorities. where nato, and the united states in particular have been concerned about the islamic state, turkey has been concerned about the reinforcement of kurdish naxalism -- kurdish nationalism. as the kurds in northern syria build an independent canton, and as the kurds in turkey's for electoral gains in parliamentary elections, the turks are concerned about this destabilizing turkey. laura: from washington's point of view, the fight against islamic state is the priority. you have syria and kurds that -- battling the islamic state. are they ignore them if turkey goes after the pkk? stephen:this idea of a safe zone in northern syria. essentially, the united states is giving the go-ahead, though not explicitly, for the turks to attack their most effective partners in the f

that awful act finally served all the members of nato to support the military inter.t was clearly necessary. to end the slaughter, to trigger peace talks, to put bosnia back on the long road to a normal life. we forget sometimes those of us who are not directly involved how long that road can be. when you ask me here in 2003 and we dedicated this sacred site only 600 of the victims had been laid to rest. today loved ones and total strangers from all over the world come here and they can see that 6,000 men and boys are buried with more coming today. i am very very grateful to the people who took action to stop this war to stop the killing, for all the people 20 years ago who made the peace. many of them no longer living. after 20 years i am thankful that bosnia remains a peaceful country. i am thankful that it is increasingly part of the european community, that it has participate participated with peace-keeping forces in iraq and afghanistan. i'm thankful for all of that. but the work i did here as president and later in kosovo was among the most important things i di
