u.s.-russia agenda. if you go back to some kind of a dialogue between united states and russia on arms control, if g you wanted to move forward, you'd have to reconcile, i think, two very different approaches, what has opinion in the last eight years, american desire to move to further reductions but also bring nonstrategic weapons and the russians desire, conventional strike and there maybe ways to bridge those differences but will take quite a bit of work. >> mayra, university of washington. i was fashion -- fascinated by the way negotiation and enthusiasm and the element affects negotiations. i would like you to reflect a little bit more on the moment oc unilateralism at this period of un time and unilaterally the united states find one thing and russians come and put it in a treaty, treat us as equal element and that somehow there's a change in context in moscow and the national context in moscow and that there is more aggression moving forward. so if you can piece these two episodes together, do you

withdrew from the deal, citing russia's bombing campaign in aleppo. after the u.s. unced it would suspend bilateral negotiations with russia, john kerry took to the stage to launch a scathing tirade against moscow support of the syrian regime. secretary kerry: together, the syrian regime in russia seemed to have rejected diplomacy, in trying to pursue a military victory, over the broken bodies, the bombed out hospitals, the traumatized children, or the long-suffering land. reporter: he insisted the u.s. was not abandoning the syrian people, but offered no alternative to the stalled bilateral efforts. russia blames washington for the diplomatic stalemate. it accuses the u.s. of cooperating with terrorist groups, as well as rebels intent on overthrowing the regime through force. >> unfortunately from the very beginning, there were many who wished to break down the agreements, including from the -- within the u.s. administration. on tuesday, to our deep regret, those who were against the political settlements of the syrian crisis succeeded. reporter: the u.s. russia aid

u.s. and russia deal with each other as equals. we are the two super powers and russia usually feels it's being respected as a world player because we come to the table as equals so all more reason to question why it's been so difficult to complete and to sustain these arms control agreements. now we have two because we couldn't have any better speakers to discuss that with us today. i'll be turning first to steve. that's a principal and former assistant secretary of state dealing with arms control issues in the george w. push administration and he has also in capitol hill and former ambassador to ukraine. having dealt at various levels in the state department and the national security council with arms control issues. he is of course a senior fellow and he's the director of the arms control and nonproliferation initiative and has written widely on all of these issues and i'll sure that he'll have a great deal to say about all of this. so i'll going to say a few words about the background to when george w. bush came into the white

u.s. and russia agreed to fresh talks on ending the fighting in syria. those talks cannot come soon enough for the desperate people of aleppo. new airstrikes pound the city as russian forces back up the syrian army offensive. we'll get more on the chances for peace in the country just a moment. also, the number of asylum seekers arriving in germany drops to one quarter of last year's levels. religion says that is good news after months of criticism and the spike in support for anti-immigrant parties. and eight begins to arrive in haiti believe after -- a week after hurricane matthew. the wind and rain are gone for now there is a new danger -- an outbreak of cholera. ♪ >> good to have you with a spirit u.s. secretary of state john kerry is to meet his russian counterpart on saturday for fresh talks on ending the conflict in syria. carrie will then hold talks with his european partners on sunday. this fresh diplomatic effort comes amid international condemnation of the latest russian airstrikes on the northeastern city of aleppo. activists and rescue worke

i am an alum and obviously u.s. russia relations are tense. ukraine is an independent country with its own culture, language, history, national identity, worldview and the reason there is tension over ukraine is that russia doesn't want to recognize ukraine as a separate culture, people and sovereign state even though moscow didn't even exist so the goal is prohibiting its course before demonstrated. >> is there a question [inaudible] my question is 10,000 people have been killed in this senseless war including your russian soldiers and acquaintances of mine that have left their cities to defend their homeland. my question is when will russia pull its troops out of ukraine and my second question is in the beginning -- >> i think we need to stop their otherwise -- >> my second question is at the beginning is that we do not interfere in the international affairs of the u.s. and that's important for people to understand. last week obama confirmed that the kremlin was behind this and other institutions of people. some people are suggesting we have

u.s. and russia continue the phone conversation. but what the russians are saying is that the united states has failed to convince mad rah rebels to disassociate themselves from al nusra. being the former, if you will regrounded al dwaed a affiliate. what the depply foreign minister said yesterday, it sounds like the united states, if they try to intervene militarily, target for example the syrian forces that are on the ground outside aleppo that would have consequences beyond syria deteriorating relations between the united states and russia further. also saying that if the united states twas to try to have a decapitation attack, if you will, take out bashar al assad, this would create the conditions on the ground in syria that would be exploited by the terrorists. russia tried to define this as the government forces or terrorist forces. it continues in all its narrative to say at that that the united states is failing under its obligations to separate moderate rebels from terrorists. that's russia's narrative. it's far more comple

u.s. and russia are locked in a i want diplomat stalemate. k toner, the deputy spokesperson for the state department if washington. where does the relationship between the u.s. and russia stand right now. >> well, as we talked about the other day that said we have suspended bilateral engagement with russia with regard to syria that means we're no longer pursuing the agreement in geneva that would have initiated a cessation of hostilities and lead to the possibility of the joint implementation center with russia and would have effectively grounded russia's air forces if it had been fulfilled but it wasn't. so after a week of watching russians and the syrian regime carry out bombings on aleppo we had to walk away from it. >> russia has deployed an air defense missile system in syria. how concerned is the u.s. about this move? does it pose a threat to other friendly pilots in region? >> well, wolf, i'd say we're watching that closely. it goes without saying that neither the opposition, nusra, nor daesh have any kind of air force so it's hard to s

u.s. cooperation with russia over syria? >> probably not but it is definitely a new low and shows how frustrated john kerry has become because he hoped that he could strike a deal with russia over the suffering of people in syria. everyone knows that he could not convince the obama administration for arming the rebels early on in the conflict which he thought would be the appropriate way on how to deal with the conflict. president obama it decided against this option. we are now five years into it. this is where we are at, nowhere near a solution. christopher: moscow says the u.s. is derailing the talks. who is going to blink first? what is the next move should mark -- move? >> we know there will be talks tomorrow in berlin with several countries. what are the options? the u.s. could think of tightening sanctions just like they did in the ukraine crisis. they could try to give the rebels more arms and give them missiles. there are other options. they could try to convince other regional powers to move into the conflict and s

u.s. and russia strike on syria. russia has violated the inf treaty, positioning missiles, threatening the use of nuclear weapon against states, including those that would host missile-defense sites. engaging in military muscle flexing, including the dangers buzzing of nato ships and aircraft. hacking of e-mails and an attempt to discredit, if not influence, the u.s. elections. heats and international sporting events, demonizes the west, and six closer -- and -- trampling on basic principles of sovereignty and territorial integrity. how many more neighbors does putin have to invade? how many more syrians have to be killed? how much worse does the cracked on inside russia have to get before we say enough? before those that advocate for a strategy would realize it would be futile and possibly dangerous? what heakova: and describes is a pattern, a pattern of complete disregard or international law, which russia signs and then willingly breaks, a sign of no respect for the sovereignty of independent states, and a brutal

russia says it regrets the u.s. decision. if moscow and washington can't agree to stop the killing, there isn't much hope of peace, and an even greater risk of further catastrophe to syria's people. quentin sommerville, bbc news. on thefor more impact of russia's announcement i spoke a short time ago with jon sopel, the bbc's north america editor. he was at the white house. this doesn't exactly come as a surprise. they were on the verge of this suspension last week. but what does it mean for russia, the white house, and syria? jon: well, i think it shows that russia-u.s. relations are in a parlor state. we have spoken before of just how difficult relations are particularly between vladimir putin and barack obama. this again goes to prove it. as you say, almost surprising because lasted until now after the bombing of the aid convoy. the state department said russia was either unwilling or unable to ensure syrian adherence to the arrangements, to which moscow agreed, they had chosen a military course inconsistent with cessation

u.s. and russia would work together to target the front in syria. other agencies have indicated of largest alis the qaeda affiliate ever anywhere. this is a great threat. >> there was a breakdown in negotiations. saying president obama lost patience. i think everybody's patience with russia has run out. they've also spent a great deal of credibility in making a series of commitments without any clear indication that they were committed to following them. so what we have seen from the rations in the year or so since their military intervention in syria is that they have not made .uch progress against isil they claim that the reason they is to fight extremists. but they haven't made a significant a single isolate objective in more than seven months. and they've been reduced to trying to claim credit for successful u.s. operations. i'm referring to the u.s. strike that took out of 90 off the battlefield. plotter andior russia was in a position where they were rather pathetic when they tried to claim credit for carrying out that operation. i think that

u.s. officials denied any responsibility. however, with russia's hacks of the u.s.system expanding, this weekend, vice president biden made clear the u.s. is ready to strike back. u.s. officials say the options range from economic sanctions to diplomatic measures, to, yes, cyber responses. >> we're sending a message. we have the capacity to do it. >> reporter: and biden speaking on nbc's "meet the press" said when the u.s. does strike back, he's confident that russian president vladimir putin will know it. to which putin responded, the threat only proves the u.s., itself, is guilty of cyber warfare. >> translator: for the first time the united states has recognized at the highest level, first, that they, themselves, do cyber attacks and second, threaten russia to a certain extent which contradicts the norms of international communication. >> reporter: donald trump has repeatedly questioned russian involvement in the election hacks, pointing his finger at everyone from china to a 400-pound man in his basement. >> they always blame russia. reason they blame russia bec

we are at are at a point today where u.s. russia relations are worse than they have been since anytime since before gorbachev came to power. the personal relations between the two presidents are almost poisonous, but very negative relations. we know that yesterday a few to help mention this briefly in her introduction, the kremlin announced that russia was withdrawing from this agreement that they had with the united states on the disposal of weapons with plutonium. the united united states was blamed for that and putin when he announced the said that the reason rushing was doing it was the emergence of a threat to strategic stability and a result of on friendly actions by the united states of america against the russian federation. he is now tied russia rejoining this to three conditions. one is that nato should withdraw forces which are in russia's neighborhood, what we have been beating up our forces to what's happening in ukraine. secondly we have to end the sanctions that were imposed after they annexed crimea and launched a wa

u.s. and russia over syria, there is a notion that statement that says the u.s. is pursuing a much desired regime change in damascus. this is really a long-running -- a very long-standing and deep and between the west russia. latimer putman came back to this theme. genie: this is mostly focused on domestic issues speaking there in front of parliament. what don't -- what tone did set in the addressed parliament? : this is the full session that he made since the september 18 elections, which gave the pro-kremlin party the biggest majority it had. turnout in that election was just 48%, so it was a big slump from 50% in the previous election. a lot of people said we are not going to vote because it is obvious united russia is going to get a big majority. there is also a sense that being an mp is sort of like a gravy train. of course, that sentiment exists in other countries. but clearly there is a problem of disconnect between people and elites, and this is something that president clinton implicitly acknowledged in that speech, saying parliament should become a platf

u.s.-russia relationship to nirvana but to get out of hole with russia in 2008 and get russians to do something that the obama administration defined as u.s. interest. the strategic nuclear arms agreement, more help on ending iranian nuclear weapon and help in afghanistan in terms of getting supplies and forces easier to afghanistan. and on those areas in the first couple of years, the obama administration went back achieved important things. by 2011, maybe may or june, the reset run its course, maybe come up with a new term and that term would have failed, but looking at the new start treaty it was also very clear and the president made this public, he wanted to go beyond new start and not only negotiate further cuts in strategic weapons but also bring in nonstrategic nuclear weapons, and so for the first time the idea that you might have a u.s.-russia negotiation that was looking at everything. later on you see russians pull back and trying to figure out, interesting question and we can speculate. they were content with new start at least at that point in time were not prepared to go beyond i

[laughter] >> it's nonsense. nonsense with which e intelligena appeases itself. but in this brutal world in which we live, power speaks and putin knows how to wheel power. actually there are multiple air-defense systems russia sent to syria. the latest has a range of 150 miles. it can reach the skies over aleppo. isis and the opposition, they don't have fighter jets, they don't have

nick, you just heard there, russia basically telling the u.s. there will be consequences if they bomb syrian regime forces. based on all of that, the pointing fingers, the tension, is there any hope for peace? >> there doesn't appear to be. certainly, when you listen to the language coming from the deputy foreign minister there has said -- don't think of a decapitation against the regime. that would have repercussions not just in syria, but throughout the region clearly an escalation of tensions along the nato, russia border with the united states. and russia raising those tensions further if the united states was to further engage. not for the u.s. not to interfere such as perhaps hits of runways or troops, syrian troops that are amassing outside of aleppo. the russian point here, all along, has been that the united states should separate the al qaeda affiliate that's rebranded itself now, separate it from the mad rah rebels. it's escalating to the point of saying that, therefore, the united states is backing the terrorists and if the united st

know about the conditions that prevailed how do you see it in the context of a non- collaborative u.s. russia effort? where does it go? >> they announced the agreement from step nine is still there. we are willing to work. first of all. secondly, i think that during the multilateral we have this avenue to pursue so what is important is that the portions on the ground. it's by supporting and rearming the forces acting on the government so as far as we are concerned is to stop the fighting but it includes. the position is to be trained and sometimes armed by the united states and the al qaeda. it's a trend that needs to be dealt with militarily. it points specifically to syria. it's to start the negotiating. initially on the first steps towards the process of seeking a formula for the peaceful negotiations we invited them to moscow. the goal was to help them talk to each other. they've neethey would need for d grandkids and we solved it by the moment the words i would say the understanding that they are impossible to. we see the opposition in the preconditions that has been blocked but i think
