u.n. security council authorization for the u.s. to be in syria there is there there in the. of the syrian u.n. recognized syrian government that wants them to leave that there is obvious there partitioning the country but what has the us ever cared about international law so that doesn't even appear in the us media if you never hear about it right but we get to the issue that is also still barely covered which is is the u.s. legality of the war in syria of the war on syria and it's done under the two thousand and one two thousand and three authorization of the use of military force for iraq against al qaeda which is still being used by the united states to justify its presence in military conflicts all of the so when this is a justification for endless wars thinking they say that they have the authorization you just move the goalpost as it were and say this is what covers it ok i suppose it will fly to yemen in somalia and only those who are getting it is ok so i mean you know it. it's already a justification and it doesn't matter the circumstances that was done once and it

u.n. security council meeting to address the situation in the terrorist tail eastern region in syria. if it joins me live with the details of that hi there khalid we saw a moment ago the members of the council just getting together it's supposed to start i guess momentarily what are we expecting here at the security council today. while the meeting is set to discuss the situation regarding a rebel held enclave east of damascus eastern ghouta now at this point there are terrorists in the city fighting alongside rebels and the syrian government is fighting to take the area of back so at this point now that the syrian government is working to take the city of bad city back along with the support of russia we're now hearing western countries the united states other european countries especially saying this is a horrific attack that civilians are being harmed and they are at this point calling for a thirty day cease fire in the city now at this point the russian foreign minister says that the resolution regarding eastern ghouta it basically puts all the blame on the syrian government furth

u.n. security council announced a cease fire. people came out of their shell to try and find a family or check on the houses and then. very short time later the building starts up again and more people were killed at the moment people are still very very scared very afraid. to really come out and. and so and so it's clear that the cease fire is holding exactly what your colleagues telling you what is their assessment about whether this five a day's ceasefire is enough telling how many attempts civilians at least in hotel. it's definitely not enough even if it holds which is still unclear and the u.n. security council was very clear a few days ago and needs to be an immediate thirty day truce and the complete cessation of hostilities on humanitarian access five hours a day is just a. relief from the bombing it still means that nineteen hours a day children and their families are going to be hiding underground insurance or aboard the boat being made agencies local aid agencies in eastern goods are trying to do distribution and tryi

u.n. security council you know we get a unanimous vote over the weekend for a cease fire resolution and it is overtly openly ignored by iran turkey and syria i thought only i mean the president putin is calling the shots. and military terms as well as in political terms my point is not and present that president assad is everybody is doing everything more president putting tells him sometimes it's because to be the opposite but at the end of the given the international environment is here and conflict i think it's pretty obvious and has been emphasized of the last twenty four hours again that russia is in the driver's he won't talk about him e peaceful solution a lot of these containment. they often are fighting in the fight we talk about the syrian civil war there are so many fronts to our viewers you know there is this fighting in in eastern there are the iranians who are also there dealing with the israelis at the lebanese border and in northern syria we've got the kurds and the turks. can any cease fire early order from putin for that matter speak to all these parties and get them to a

u.n. security council. that is a really big and rather open question now of course russia says it would like to see a long term ceasefire for all of syria however many of russia's international partners and security council were very critical of how they change the language of the cease fire resolution they said that russia they choose russia rather of putting in loopholes that will allow him to actively continue its military campaign against many of these rebel groups while at the same time claiming it was a hearing to the cease fire and now when it when it comes to whether or not there is the long term goal at least for moscow it seems the most important thing is what happens in the next several days basically they by employing these humanitarian cease fires they're given the assad government or wait around before a long term cease fire actually takes effect so it really seems like for moscow at the moment it's all about the short term game in syria before they go into a long term peace deal like peaceabl

u.n. security council votes unanimously to call for a thirty day ceasefire in syria. back if. this is more than five hundred syrians have been killed in a week because government forces attack opposition held eastern ghouta. nigeria's says it's deploying more troops to search for more than one hundred schoolgirls seized by boko haram in northern nigeria. because. of protests across italy as tensions rise in the run up to next weekend's election immigration is a key issue. and i'm tatiana phantasm hall with the sport where history has been made to n.p.r. the czech republic and that cup becomes the fast athlete to win gold in both and snowboarding at a single until. the u.n. security council has unanimously adopted a resolution demanding a thirty day truce in syria to allow aid access it follows days of negotiations at un over the wording of the document five hundred people have been killed in seven days of syrian government attacks on rebel held east and thousands of people are trapped in on the ground shelters many of which are providing little protection against the syrian an

u.n. security council has been unable to agree on a cease fire resolution in syria and has delayed a vote until later today now the temporary cease fire would allow much needed humanitarian. to each truck civilians but syria's key ally russia is blocking that resolution it says it wants guarantees that rebel fighters the east and bhutto will respect a halt to the fighting will get expert analysis on this in a moment but first this report. these crackling bright lights have all the hallmarks of a firework display. but they were designed to devastate not to celebrate. activists say they are proof that the syrian government is firing indiscriminate cluster bombs in built up residential areas. the syrian civil defense group known as the white house let's posted this footage to a social media web site they say it shows they're members rescuing children from guta a rebel held district outside damascus after six straight days of regime bombing. others less lucky grieved their lost ones well are but we're ok we're nine knew he would go. i told his grandmother he would go. he didn't want to contin

u.n. security council call for the fighting to stop for a month. well remember the u.n. security council cool is more than just a cool on saturday they passed a resolution without delay for a ceasefire not just an eastern ghouta but across syria without delay to have humanitarian access into eastern ghouta and other parts of syria so i can tell you certainly there are some diplomats particularly those that were on the other side of the argument in recent days against russia as they were negotiating that resolution say this is just wrong of russia to come out with this call now for a limited five hour cease fire when the security council is already mandated that there should be a seize far around the clock in front the acting british ambassador said russia was playing cynical games for their part the u.n. has told us that in the last forty eight hours that's basically the timeline since the u.n. resolution was passed that thirty more people by their figures have died in eastern guta they say that if there's any sort of society they already to get the aid in we stand ready
