u . s. a sorta, sorta by choice withdrawn from the south caucasus not entirely, but it seated diplomatic territory to, to turkey, to russia as well as the u. s. may well have seated influence from the south caucuses, but actually it's still a pretty big player in turkey, still has the intellect airbase that the turks, however, did by russian air defense systems, which angered the u. s. is this is one got to has to do with another, is this normalization of relations with armenia, a gift to the u. s. and saying that we are doing some of the things you want us to do. just don't take away a defense system on turkey, the amount of perspective towards the goals are likely to work in the work and us and must provide the anytime at their approach with the normalization piece in the region. and we're more than that. and this is again, can just change the wider it's served the american way. but right as you know, right, that it's on the field as an active. but you know, they just froze again, working on the line, normalized or regional issues, but any kind of armenian or, or normal vision to get an army. we changed the w

u. s. navy, in the summer turkey, selling armed drones to ukraine, and russia and the u. s. military arming the ukrainians. all these russia putin sees as a problem. now let me put in may be things that bite and can't give him these guarantees. but put in now has this bargaining chip the build up of those troops on the border with ukraine and analyst. the saying that build up continues, then by the end of january, russia will be in a position to invade ukraine, although that will come at enormous military cost and human cost, not just to ukraine, but to russia as well. ukraine a much better trained army now than it was in 2014. when russia annexed crimea, at least 4 people have been killed by an explosion in iraq. southern city of basra last happened near the hospital. several other people were injured. awkward. i'm the one that has more from doha. the governor over as basra city has called it a terrorist attack, despite the fact that he has not given any more details about the causes as or who behind who is behind the attack. a. but he calls it a terrorist attack. now the

u. s. navy, in the summer turkey, selling armed drones to ukraine, and russia and the u. s. military arming the ukrainians. all these russia putin sees as a problem. now let me put in may be things that bite in, con, give him these guarantees. the putin now has bass bargaining chip, the build up of those troops on the border with ukraine and analysts. the saying about build up continues, then by the end of january, russia will be in a position to invade ukraine, although that will come at enormous military cost and human cost, not just of ukraine, but to russia as well. ukraine, a much better trained army now than it was in 2014 when russia annexed crimea. there, on that point, bernard, we are talking about russia, which is facing significant financial problems in its own light. obviously it's got having to deal with cobra, 1900, spite of that. the problems and many other countries are facing around the world. is there a sense that you're guessing about whether or not russia is actually in a position to wage some sort of concept like this? so as i, as you say, is this esse

u. s. navy exercises were held that turkey supplying armed drones to ukraine. and the u. s. is helping supply weaponry missiles to ukraine's military. all of this. russia wants to stop and it doesn't want to crane to be allowed to join nate . so i think body may put in maybe realizes that this is not in jo biden's gift to give this guarantee, but who tin does have now this bargaining chip with this significant true build upon the border with ukraine and russia. you talked about the irritation that moscow russia feel about nato involvement and intrusion on the doorstep. but this all happened really, as you say, the collapse of the, the, what was then the soviet union and, and the desire by some of those former soviet states to want to join weston alliances and groups like the baltic states. they will join they to have a nice well rather method in described when ukraine declared independence as a great common calamity, might not be a view shared by many ukrainians. but it's how it has been viewed by many in russia . now, yes, russia did not want all those other east in europea

u. s. navy exercises in the black sea turkey providing arm drones to ukraine on the u. s. also arming ukraine's military. now, i might not be in jo biden's gift to give assurances that nato won't expand. but vladimir putin does have this bargaining chip now, which is this large troop build up along the borders with ukraine. and according to us, estimates that could be enough troops there by the end of january, the earliest to launch an invasion showed vladimir putin want to go down that route . we talk about this issue of historically the baltic states, for example, of join nato. and ukraine has got an application in that to join nato. how much of a threat this is felt by russia and by moscow that you know, what was once bears is not, there's any more well, when ukraine declared independence, not lock up long after the collapse of the soviet union, vladimir putin described it as a great common calamity now that might not be view shared by many ukrainians, but an indication of the centuries of connections that have been between ukraine and russia. russia did not want those

u. s. navy, having joint operations in the black sea, with ukraine, turkey supplying armed drones to ukraine on the u. s. also helping build up ukraine's military. so the russian view is this is getting too close to areas of its influence and it wants the us to back off. it will though be an enormous risk for russia for blood in a boot. and if he goes ahead with an invasion, taking cold of crime onyx and crime is 7 years ago was comparatively simple, ethnic russian majority people that genuinely welcoming what happened this time you'd be invading ukraine proper, mainly ukrainians. going to war with those people. and now you create an army of though much smaller than the russia was still better armed than it was. so this would be a very, very dangerous and deadly for both sides. but it's the force in moscow. well, it's called over to charles stratford correspondent in mario pole in ukraine. and if anything to go by from what a kimberly said charles, in terms of telephone conversations between biden and his partners, one can assume there is a telephone call happening very soon. if not already

turkeys, currency. the lira has tumbled to an all time low against the u. s. dollar. one day after turkey's president cited muslin teachings to justify his decision not to raise interest rates to stabilize the currency. on the weekly or as driving prices ever hire many people in turkey are struggling to buy food and other essentials. the steve, the valuation also has seen foreign invest visitors rather mostly from greece and bulgaria, crossing into turkey to take advantage of their new found purchasing power. i. let's get you more. a d. w correspondence to dorian jones is standing by an istanbul. what does this mean for the people in turkey? well, it means suffering. turkish people are facing a sooner meal price increases to day, so petrol price is going up. dairy products have gone up over 50 percent in the last few weeks rent, so also soaring as landlords try to pay the rent for rent rises to the the, the rising dollar on top of that there's expectation of a heating bills will be soaring as well. thus winter snows an hour hitting turkey that because turkey import ove

u. s. withdrew its missiles from turkey. so compromise one in the end, how likely do you think it is that we're going to compromise him? well, the difference is that the 1960 toe, it was the soviet union who secretly delivered me styles cuba which create that dangerous situation. and there were some lies. let's admit that there were some wires on the side of the soviet union. it didn't make immediately that it had missed station in your way, it had to be shown publicly by the american side. and there was a really dangerous situation. now, unfortunately, these crisis is not the diesel. the western media infusion russia one tend to invade ukraine, which is ludicrous because we still view your radiance at the, for the nation. all ukrainian, believe me speak russian sometimes better than russians themselves. we watch the same gallery as we went to the same schools. we were in the same state with most of them for 300 years. so no one in russia, one to invade your grades. we have a war with your grade. we want to protect the russi

u. s. is operating on it's doorstep that been us naval exercises with ukranian troops in the black sea. turkey has been supplying drones to crane on the u. s. military has also been supplying the ukrainian military all of these things. russia is, does not want to see happening. again, it has been looking for guarantees that it won't, the white house, joe biden, not able to give guarantees that putin is looking for probably bought him a person. has this bargaining chip. he has these troops gathered on the border with ukraine and estimate, suggest protect from u. s. military satellites. that if they, by the end of january, the early still have some $175000.00 troops there. and they'll be in a position to invade. should vladimir putin decide to do that? and it's pretty easy to get that actually there's been a kind of cold conflict rumbling on, hasn't since 2014. how does that play into everything while ukraine? yes. the mean, one of the major complaints has been the agreements reached the chief, the sci fi in the ukraine previously have not been observed. russia hasn't withdrawn. heavy artillery

turkey's problems. the american banks and the banks so contain the turkish banks. so the foreign turkish bank own, or the u. s. european head offices may go under, but it's not going to threaten the united states that all turkey doesn't really matter what those matter to the united states. and turkey of being lost to nato altogether, and turkey was becoming politically unpredictable country that may move much closer to russia or china if they choose to help them with that. but doesn't this fall under the category of the quote, tristan dilemma explain how that is. i don't described it, you know, where the global reserve currency. we've got to print dollars to keep the empire going. and when these things start to fall apart, we end up having to finance the entire globe, which has a blow back, essentially to buy, undermine air on economy. it seems like the guy who the whole term driven the women i think is a misnomer. the dilemma was the u. s. running a deficit by having the dollar, the world currency and having other countries hold their treasury. i use, well, the real dilemma is going on. a real is for you and

u. s. dollar that we've been out a 0 cert resort solder, who's covered turkey extensively for us is with me or in the studio resort. it seems that the president and a business leaders in turkey are somewhat at odds over his moves to rescue the lira that resists it's a radical move. and so the desperate times cause for the desperate measures. and this is definitely one of them. shortish lira over the past couple of months has lost a value dramatically. i mean, sometimes within their 25 percent loss of the weather and so on. and people are starting to feel anxious about they are the savings in turkish lira. so they converted turkish li are more and more into the u. s. d. and that has been simply the savings way and in wesson's way for the people. so ah, now the government is coming up with a new system and guaranteeing the deposit of people saying they're simply if you have 100 after actually right in your bank account. and at the end of the month, if death, $100.00 lira is losing 15 percent, then government is going to pay $15.00, the rum more in their sas em to, to, to make the investmen
