Positive for the disease i had with warning if the outbreak is not controlled it could last up to 3 years stephanie dechen now and gets in there which is right on the d. L. C. Border with rolonda lets deal with the political side of things 1st of all stephanie the leading sorry meeting between the 2 countries leaderships what are they hoping to get out of it. What theyre trying to come up with the communal plan of the 1st time that you have Health Officials from the titian sitting down from both sides from the d. R. See everyone down together with the specials from the top do it show the World Health Organization to try and figure out a plan Going Forward why well because go shot is a bit shaky were not going to zoom come on but im told most right couple of 100 meters away from where we are you can see the heavy traffic going back and forth and the challenge is how do you contain a virus that can spread so easy that it spreads from what we were down at the border yesterday practically in the amount of people the share mass of human transit they will have to stand together in line have their hands washed out their temperatures taken but we were speaking to you that had a serious hospital here one of the doctors that said it is its very very difficult it of course its possible that you miss someone who may have a fever which is when they become contagious and the fact is that there are more faces of them still being found across the border commodity this is why theyre so concerned and what sort of stories do people tell you there i mean if they are having to go through all of this i guess the fear and concern must be very hign. I mean its twofold really people are terrified some of the ladies we were talking to yesterday were saying you know were terrified its killing a lot of people it makes you believe from the inside it kills you so they are washing their hands but again you know its all about Community Outreach from everyone weve been speaking to you also have problems and the fact that the outbreak is in north kivu province in. Terry province eastern d r c these are remote areas these are areas that have been affected by years of conflict of neglect people are very suspicious of any sort of outsiders wanting to come in and vaccinate them theres a lot of rumors around this just seized the fact that perhaps its vaccines continue so its a real challenge for the Health Workers those on the front line trying to deal with it so it is a good step but of course theres negotiations until toughening here today but you know no one is under any illusion this is going to be easy it is going to take a challenge its going to take more effort more money more screening more Community Outreach to try and prevent it from spreading even further ok Stephanie Decker with the latest from just send you there thank you now irans president has shown support for his own foreign minister zarif after the u. S. Froze the reefs and said sand imposed a travel ban speaking at the Foreign Ministry house on bronnie reiterated the need for the u. S. To lift sanctions if it hopes to negotiate zarif says the u. S. Sanctioned him because he declined an invitation for talks or from intel from. Well president rouhani as address was broadcast live over state media he said that he favors talks with the United States but the sanctions imposed against iran must be lifted he took aim at irans enemies referring to u. S. Hawks israel and what he called reactionary states in the region as a triangle of evil he talked about the 2015 nuclear deal and how its good for iran that they had been those from the outset that had been working to undermine said irans policy is security for security straight for straight through free into the strait of hormuz peace for peace and oil for oil and also in the rare event the president have visited the foreign minister you should expect the foreign minister to visit the president and the context for this are the u. S. Sanctions against of odds of a rift that they put on him last week on thursday the u. S. Says that hes not an honest broker and he acts on behalf of the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei but this very much is establishment getting behind the reef and telling the u. S. That they cant sideline him and another remove the Major General of the oil could force which is a faction under the revolutionary guard that deals with operations outside of iran mainly in iraq and syria visited the reef now the meeting isnt really but what is read is the fact that it was made public and again these are the different factions within iran getting behind the foreign minister with president rouhani saying that the reef is the primary spokesman for iran outside of the country the u. S. Sanctions though have made zarif one of the most popular politicians inside the country. Of the United States has warned turkey it is willing to prevent any unilateral incursions in syria saying such a move would be unacceptable it comes as the turkish president reject time burdwan announced he would send troops to an area in syria which is controlled by the kurdish why p. G. Fighters remember the why p. G. Was a u. S. Ally in the battle against i saw what is considered a terrorist group by ankara no one said he was losing patience with washington over setting up a safe zone in Northern Syria there are talks on that happening in korea at the moment here is need in istanbul to take us through this 1st of all lets talk about those talks in what exactly is the safe zone where exactly are we talking about. Well its the 2nd day of talks between u. S. And turkish officials in and career they are trying to revive hopes of creating this all important safe zone in Northern Syria but so far no indication of any progress no sign that both sides were paired to Work Together Going Forward what we have heard though of comments from the sidelines firstly from mark asper the u. S. Defense secretary who said as you said that it would be unlike scepter pull for turkey to stage any kind of unilateral incursion into Northern Syria east of the euphrates he said that that would be counterproductive and against the joint joint incentives of those forces who are involved in that part of syria were talking about the Turkish Forces the u. S. And Syrian Democratic forces made up largely of kurdish white peachy fighters the u. S. Also suggested that it would be prepared to push back against any unilateral incursion but did said mark gaspe did hope for some kind of breakthrough in these ongoing talks for the same time weve heard from president dressing diplomats ambassadors in ankara saying that he believe that if turkey did not act now they would turkey would have to quote pay a higher price much later on suggesting that a unilateral incursion is possibly still on the cards for turkey and also went on to slam what he described as double standards when it comes to dealing with a y p g regarded very much by the u. S. As allies in the fight against eisel been seen as terrorists by turkey in the same vein. As i saw so clearly on a fundamental basis neither the u. S. Nor turkey are singing from the same hymn sheet whether or not its military officials meeting in ankara can find Common Ground can find a way of working together to establish this safe zone we have to wait and see but the. The long term goal here for turkey to try and establish a safe space free of the white p. G. That it regards very much as i said a terrorist organization but also a safe zone to allow syrians who are here in turkey in large numbers to begin returning to an area that they can regard at least temporarily as a safe space so that issue with the y. P. Just to go back to bed again for any of us are looking at us and going well is this huge disconnect between the United States and turkey over the y. P. G. Its not something turkey burgers on isnt it this is certainly mr on it as a historic position that they have put the y. P. Jian. Well absolutely no and repeatedly described the white p. G. As a threat to National Security as a terrorist organization which is why he wants again slammed not directly but hinting that the u. S. Is double standards when it comes to dealing with the why. Very much for guarded as allies in the fight against eisel heavily armed by the white house what the u. S. Does in its dealings with the y p g go in for though is very unclear the white b. G. Of have hinted that they feel somewhat betrayed if they give if United States gives anything to turkey by way of greater control of that part of Northern Syria theres a delicate balance that the u. S. And turkey has to strike if this safe zone is going to go ahead as some sort of joint action. Barker in istanbul thank you put the records constitutional crisis continues the u. S.
