Summit in a few days on thursday and it is a believe that of course this issue syria turkey will be one of the top talking points on the agenda so we might see something come out of that ok well leave it there for now natasha thank you for that update from paris well very highly for a senior syria syria analysts of the International Crisis group and she believes the violence could lead to a resurgence of ice or cells in the region. We have been conducting a lot of field where field trips in Eastern Syria where the situation has been deteriorating read it quickly because of the u. S. Flip flopping policies that has it back to the y. P. G. s ability and willingness to conduct counter isis campaigns in Eastern Syria of course the a lot of the field work was done during a time where it was unclear how long the us would be there but the us was present now given that free for all the race to take control over the area it is expected that well see a number of things including potential prison riots a lot of weve been hearing a lot of prisoners in isis the tension centers or i. D. P. Camps have been escaping the camps we expect more and more of them but also i think one thing that is quite important and that is often overlooked is the act of isis cells in these areas which are usually under reported people assume that isis has been defeated territorially has no presence or influence over these areas but weve been seeing increased attacks against mainly arabs working with the white b. G. But also targeting of the institutions operating trying to create this the playstation. If and i think were moving in that direction unfortunately if there would be a free for all you to be a race for power for controlling the area it is expected that these cells would take advantage of the security vacuum in the void. And target like increased their attacks in turkey has been very clear and understanding between the ip g. And the mosque this would entail protecting the y. P. G. Is not something that is going to stop turkey from advancing. Turkeys objective from this operation is to change the balance of power in northEastern Syria to tip the balance of power to end the y. P. Gee who germany over northEastern Syria if the Syrian Government with come back to the northeast in a form or a way that would protect the white b. G. Keep its military structure is intact that would not stop turkey in my opinion. Plenty more ahead on the aljazeera news hour including find out why the russian president Vladimir Putin is visiting saudi arabia for the 1st time in more than a decade. Shots fired at protesters in guinea at least one person is killed. And in sport political tensions overshadow turkeys euro 2020 qualifier against france details coming up a little later in the program. So the russian president Vladimir Putin is in saudi arabia where hes expected to sign Oil Agreements and discuss the crisis with iran its his 1st visit in more than a decade a sign the 2 countries are getting closer hes meeting king sandman and the crown Prince Mohammed bin said a man in riyadh Saudi Oil Facilities came under drone attacks last month for which the us blamed russias ally iran so lets take a closer look at russias relations with saudi arabia there are 2 of the Top Oil Producers in opec and they Work Together to reduce supplies to World Markets to keep prices relatively high but theyve been on opposing sides of a number of issues in recent years especially on syria and iran the 2 nations have discussed cooperating on Missile Defense a controversial issue for the United States saudi arabia currently relies on u. S. Made systems which washington recently agreed to strengthen lets make to make a law it doesnt know if hes an associate professor at the go study center at Qatar University on this issue thanks very much for speaking to us on the on the euro news hour what will you be looking out for when it comes to the meeting between russias president and officials in riyadh while it will definitely be interesting to see how. Successful in achieving his main our goal. That we used to demonstrate the relations between the 2 countries came at a new stage of stage. To support these achievement by a number of corn dogs in quite a wide range of areas so what are his priorities in this visit while there are basically 3 priorities the 1st one is to ensure the signing of as much economic contacts as possible in the nuclear patro chemicals that are in the oil and gas petrochemical fildes. Secondly to achieve the understanding on necessity to continue the corporation within the opec bloss between saudi arabia and russia and possibly even the further decrease in the production old food and finally to reach the common understanding or the key issue of the Regional Security yeah and on that note our friends in our security is there a role that the russian president can play or is striving to play at least when it comes to the tensions between saudi arabia and iran while the question is very sensitive for moscow because it doesnt want to harm with relations between with iran on the one hand on the other hand it believes that its a really good time to sell to the gulf region the Russian Security issues here of and thus to make sure that moscow will be playing an Important Role in the region at least from the mid term perspective and when it comes to the timing of this particular visit is there something to be said about that because as weve been reporting thats a 1st time in a decade so its quite timely is it not well it is because most of the invested quite a lot of efforts in trying to make the queer little change in this relations to bring them at the level of lets say what it sees as a Strategic Partnership and now it believes that the time is really important because on the one hand there is a really serious decision on oil market that should be taken within the last by january 20th fainted on the other hand there is a growing insecurity in the region which as i said allows more scope to sell its vision or for the future security structure and finally. Who believed it at last if youd brought its ideas about potential projects for bilateral Economic Cooperation at the stage where they can be not only in simply sign but. Implemented as soon as possible ok thank you very much for your analysis thank you in guinea at least one person has died and another has been hospitalized after shots were fired at protesters demonstrators are rallying against president s office on days plan to change the constitution and run for a 3rd term ahead of the rally 6 opposition figures were arrested so lets bring in nick is joining us from the capital fanaa craze so what is happening where you are right now. Well during we were just earlier next to Police Security forces that were firing live rounds with a k 47. 00 towards protesters we saw one journalist being pulled out that was injured and so this is what were seeing in the capital sporadic fighting between the Paramilitary Forces that are out and about and the protesters but if you look right behind me this is what the streets of the guinea cannot be looks like pretty much empty because most people here are scared their shops the schools the businesses are shut down and so the streets have become the battleground between those members of the opposition that want to see outside cone day go and and the Security Forces that are engaging with them weve also seen several protesters being arrested by Security Forces so a tense and volatile situation here in guinea and this isnt new you know Human Rights Organization have recorded and have recorded the fact that the Security Forces here are usually heavy handed and use live rounds to quell protest during and nicholas what are protesters telling you about whats causing this unrest whats at the root if its. Well on the surface of it its people here protesting against president alsa convey who is 81 years old who wants to eventually change the constitution put a referendum up so he can change the constitution in order for him to remain in power a bit longer but there are also deeper grievances here that most of the shops that you see here are owned by the full lani community which are a semi Nomadic Group that you see throughout west africa this is a country where the full on these are the majority of the population and yet never has there been a full on the in power and most of the people that are in opposition are full of the so there is an ethnic element to this during during the last election alpha cone days unofficial slogan was anyone but a full on the this is this is the danger here is that these protests are not just about cold days staying into power but about grievances and allegiances to Political Parties from various ethnic groups whether they be the this is the most so are demanding cows and the full on these so there is the danger for guinea and of course this is a country rich and iron ore is the 2nd largest exporter of Precious Minerals and yet the majority of the people here live under the poverty line and they see the 81 year old alpha come day not being representative of them especially among the young people that weve seen thats taken to the streets or write or read nicolas thank you for that update now spains top court has sentenced 9 council on separate sleepers to preside over their role in the region failed bid for independence people in barcelona have described the ruling as unfair after the Supreme Court delivered sentences of between 9 and 13 years in prison former catalonian Vice President oriel one card issuer see the longest at 13 years for the crime off edition. To cut down on government and i personally reject these very vague its because we consider them unjust and antidemocratic and because they are part of a political trial and were dragged campaign of legal action against catalonia its right to selfdetermination and against the Independence Movement now today more than ever we stand by their families because today more than ever we feel a sense of fraternal solidarity with those convicted by the Supreme Court where police in barcelona are bracing themselves for the reaction from supporters of the council on independence take a look at the scene at the airport demonstrators as you can see racing off with the police there threatening to block access to the area theres been no sign of us any violence so far lets bring in al jazeera so youre going to go see joining us in the catalan regional capital barcelonas as we keep an eye out on the situation at the airports just tell us where you are and what youve been seeing. Well we are right now in the city center itself 2 main arteries in the city they have been blocked by protest as pro nationalist protesters theyve completely blocked the. Areas where the vehicles have to get through around this main point here so far they let through a vehicle such as ambulances. Its really through in this part of the city to a complete standstill making it very difficult for people to travel around this area as well in this area of course. A lot of tourists as well so between these road blockages in the city center and the troubles that have been at the air this morning its really caused quite a lot of commotion for those who were traveling about the city making it very difficult for that but the Train Company the national Train Company had to close down the train lines going to the airport as well they said theyve reopened them again but it has really caused quite a lot of headaches for everyone whos trying to maneuver their way around the city because of these impromptu protests that have taken place so called democratic tsunami as this approach as group is now calling itself and so on youre on the issue of the sentencing itself the 9 leaders they were acquitted of the more serious charge of our rebellion and we also understand that the court has kind of left the door open to the possibility of a. System that will allow these individuals to spend only the nights of monday through thursday in jail for example why has the court done. Well i think its really dependent upon the fact that this is in the hands of how the because they are that most of in cash jails so it really sort of is up to them how they will carry out those sentences of course the recommendation handed down from the Public Prosecutor is that they would be given the full force of that but i guess i suppose its the if you look at it in the context of the fact that there is a general election happening the 4th one in 4 years in spain and there is a par 5 i suppose that is trying to be carved out between coming down heavily on these people whove been accused of sedition the charge of the situation but also trying to find a plausible way out of this conflict its been 2 years since this crisis certainly the strong feelings that are felt here in catalonia have not really gone down people still feel very passionately about the procession movement but its also its not really getting anywhere and of course the Prime Minister. Who is looking to try and secure an outright victory in that november 10th election he wants to see some kind of resolution thats done in a peaceful way in a democratic way and in a way that sort of exudes dialogue from both sides as well and that of course is obviously understanding that its not just spain that is watching but also the International Community the European Union as well remember of course that back when that illegal referendum did take place this financial thora to certainly the law enforcers really came under a lot of criticism for the very heavy handed way that they came down on the people who took part in voting in that illegal referendum but really it is a very fine line that has to be cross between that on one hand they dont want to be seen as being too too easy on them but on the other hand they need to find a way out of this problem thank you for that update from barcelona. Across or as government has reached an agreement with Indigenous Leaders to end days of violent protests began after the government moved to end decades old fuel subsidies when you are up alone has the latest from the capital. On sunday chaos once again gripped the streets of the ecuadorian capital fighting between protesters and police turned much of downtown into a battlefield with demonstrators continuing to pressure the government to reverse course on austerity measures that many here view as damaging for the poorest sectors of society. More than 2000 people have been wounded since the unrest began with roads blocked volunteer medics have been forced into the front lines of the clashes. This is the worst weve seen we dont know what will happen next please move back move back thank you. This has been the scene over the course of the last few days with clashes taking place between police and demonstrators tear gas and smoke filling the air and what people here tell us is that theyve completely lost confidence in the national government. As the unrest continued to intensify on the streets leaders of indigenous communities from across the country met with the ecuadorian president for talks moderated by representatives from the United Nations after hours of dialogue ecuadors president lenin moreno announced the negotiations had finally reached a resolution. An agreement doesnt mean to win it all and agreement means to concede something thats why i say there is not much left to say its great that the word that has been used more in these talks has been the word of the peace process. Indigenous representatives celebrated the announcement but also condemned the violent crackdown by police that has left at least 10 people dead and sent more than 1000 others to jail see if. We insist that the state take responsibility of all those who have been imprisoned or injured to ministers who are in charge of Public Security cannot guarantee safety participated in demonstrations since 1908 and ive never seen this level of brutal violence. By nightfall. Tess turned a celebration on the streets filled with cheerful citizens welcoming the news of the cream but with emotions still running high the hope is that this is a peace that will truly last minute. Quito ecuador lets get a check on the weather with everton thanks very much staring well the remnants of typhoon are expected to cause a search in colder air across the western side of north america over the next few days and we have recently already see a fair bit of cold air just talking its way in across the rockies through the mountain states and easing further eastward this area 5 pressure here has made for a cool trend in the weather out of the canadian prairies pushing down towards the great lakes so theres been a fair bit of snow as well way back towards the coaches some very heavy snowfall recently 91 centimeters of snow across parts of north dakota call c. N. N. s paul chaos on the roads some wet and heavy snow very difficult traveling conditions as a result of that the worst of that weather is now making its way further eastward so we have got still some cold air in place but he paid around 4 degrees celsius a similar temperature that for calgary so you go on through the coming hours will see some wintry weather making its way back across ontario into quick back so wintry weather too just easing over towards the upper midwest through the great lakes just notice down to the south some very heavy rain in place i suspect he may well see some localized flooding as a result of this very heavy rain as we go on through tuesday still there as we go on into wednesday somewhat weather linking all the way back up towards the eastern seaboard up towards lakes as well and notice daryn will wet and wintry weather to the northwest. A written thank you. For to brussels where in your Foreign Ministers have been meeting and theyve been discussing the Turkish Operation in northeast syria thats the Positive Side or come up or remain calm and shes addressing the media like the Global Coalition against you might have seen in their conclusions we called for a ministerial meeting. Of the Global Coalition because we see as one of the most immediate consequences of this military in the north east of syria the fact that could refinance its briefing space inside that territory that worries us enormously this is a direct Security Threat to the European Union not only to the European Union 1st and foremost to the region and the International Community so we want to see this tackled in the Global Coalition format. And. There is obviously also our strong commitment as usual to the stability of the region. Let me say that in particular any attempt to have any kind of demographic engine needing in that region would be seen from our side as particularly dangerous. There is also a commitment that Member States have taken to have clear and Strong National positions theyre guarding their arms export policy to turkey we have a common position on arms export control and they are committed to apply that framework to their exports of arms to turkey and obviously we affirmed the. Commitment we have in terms of addressing the serious money to the interests and refugee crisis in light of the of all the needs and i was able to debrief the ministers of so the call that i had with. Undersecretary general local that was indicted in the recent days and our strong determination to support in particular countries in the region that are facing. Important consequences in terms of humanitarian and refugee crisis. When it comes to the concert conclusions on the illegal drilling activity is in the Eastern Mediterranean there is a. Clear. Calling of the conclusions were adopted already in july and in particular the. Need to address the limitation of the exclusive Economic Zone and continent of shelf through dialogue and negotiations in good faith in full respect of International Law and accordance with the principle of Good Neighbor relations and there is the agreement between among all Member States. To put in place a framework regime of restrictive measures targeting natural and legal persons responsible for all involved in the illegal drilling activities in the Eastern Mediterranean so i would present together with the commission the Legal Process to this effect in the coming days let me add that we had another important point on the agenda today we welcome to the new foreign minister of ukraine. We received from him a very comprehensive and i would say satisfactory picture of the plants that the government and mr ation have on the reform agenda of the country but also on how to address the conflict in eastern. Weve seen some positive developments very much willing to support them and we reconfirmed. To him and obviously through him to all the ukrainian people the European Union. Strong determination to. So does the e. U. Foreign policy chief for the rica marina she is speaking right now in luxembourg after a meeting by the e. U. Foreign ministers in which they discussed the turkish offensive currently happening in the north east of syria and the e. U. Did condemn turkeys military action and did say Member States have said that this seriously undermines the stability in the security off of the whole region lets bring in the tosser butler she is joining us from paris and frederick im a greenie i suppose is giving us a little bit more context after that meeting that was held by e. U. Foreign ministers the tosser and one thing that stood out for me is that she is just warning once again about the possibility of ice or making a resurgence if the situation is not brought under control in the north east of syria. Yes thats one of the big concerns for you Member States and that are ecomog rainy said there are many concerns of course with the Member States with this turkish offensive that she said the e. U. Was a unanimous in condemning that the e. U. Calls for a cessation to all hostilities and the violence because a Member States are concerned about the resurgence of ice all they are concerned about further destabilize destabilizing an already very volatile region and there is real worry about what is going to happen to the civilians in that area who are already fleeing or who might be killed and there have been calls by the e. U. For some sort of humanitarian assistance all zone so that is why frederica mockery me said it was very important that the e. U. Foreign ministers discuss this topic syria turkey will again be on the agenda at an easy it later this week on thursday of friday a higher level it is expected that perhaps e. U. Leaders might come out with something more with more statements because all we know for now is the Foreign Ministers were trying to push for an e. U. Wide arms embargo on all exports to turkey they were not able to do that it seems at least not for the time being but other but several countries including france germany and finland have said that they are suspending all of their arms exports to turkey for the time being because they cant tell exactly how those arms and weapons are being used theres also a push for possible sanctions on turkey something that was discussed by Foreign Ministers and that is what we heard from the e. U. Foreign policy chief ok natasha thank you. The british monarch says her governments priority is to secure the u. K. s departure from the e. U. By october 31st Queen Elizabeth delivered her speech during the official state opening of parliament to mark a new session so c. Outlined the governments agenda for the year and the queen also spoke of the need for cooperation between the u. K. And you countries as negotiations continue my government intends to work towards a new partnership with the European Union based on free trade and friendly cooperation. My ministers will work to implement new regimes of fisheries agriculture and trade shes seeing the opportunities that arise from relieving the European Union and immigration bill ending Free Movement will lay the foundation for a fair modern and global immigration system lets bring in lawrence lee whos joining us from london you know lawrence that speech really happening at an unprecedented time in u. K. Politics rose just talk us through the reaction after the queens speech. Well i mean after she sees buys that this speech was written for her by the government and she just read it out and plainly a lot of its. About electioneering by the conservative policy this is that theres not much question really that it wont become law any of this theres this 5 or 6 days of debate now set asides all the opposition parties have said that they will vote it down and because Boris Johnson is governments his and hes in the minority of about minus 40 is every suggestion that they will lose the votes but really it isnt about that its about the conservative party and the Boris Johnson setting out its stall for the National Election that everybody thinks is bound to happen really at some point between this year and possibly start of next year and so in that sense hes trying to get a jump on the opposition parties by saying this is what we want to do i think i think the main calculation honestly thats going on inside the conservative policy is that if they cant skate some sort of deal with the European Union of a back seats and there needs to be an extension if there was an election the conservatives would really struggle because a lot of votes would go to the Party Instead but if they could get a deal organized all the polling suggests that they would actually win that election and so thats why theres so much pressure on in the days the rectory before the european summit at the end of this week to try to come to some sort of arrangement with the European Union but the opposition parties say its all quite cynical on behalf of the government because they know perfectly well that theres no chance really of any of this stuff bachelor becoming law and is there any sign of a deal at all in brussels after particularly after this weeks talks between Boris Johnson and the irish Prime Minister. Its you know its its just so difficult to know publicly because you know the story just swerves around from one week to the next and politicians say things that then that they then go back on you know Boris Johnson had saves previously that he made his final office of the European Union which involved a new set of customs arrangements in Northern Ireland totally acceptable to the European Union he said that was its final offer but has since said hes prepared to make compromises on it and so when when people say things that actually dont end up meaning very much people like me to go on television and say some of it ends up being wrong if a few days later as it is at the moment the talks are actually continuing right down to the wire to this european summit and theyre trying to keep this quiet of the possibly can about it to try to avoid any leaks but the major gap still is is that the e. U. Is insisting on irelands behalf of there is no Customs Border its all on the island of ireland and the u. K. Says there has to be some sort of arrangement and how they square that circle is really impossible to know which in turn means everybody is the suggestion that the u. K. Governments going to have to agree eventually to having yet another extension to the process all right lawrence lee thank you and tennessee a former law professor and political outsider appears to set to be come the next president so exit polls suggest case the side has beaten his rival the media tycoon credibly by securing 76 percent of the vote has some had better reports from tunis on what that when could mean for the country.
