A heat wave with mondays higher about 10 degrees above what is normal for october polands governing nationalist party has won a 2nd power 2nd term in power early results show the law and Justice Party won more than 45 percent of the vote with the turnout was the highest in 30 years but as Andrew Simmons explains from warsaw its a party that divides opinion. Polina lipinski is one of the voters behind the surge in popularity of polands ruling party shes a devout catholic who fell on bad times 10 years ago when her husbands business went bust here with one of her 3 children for whom she gets a government allowance of 125. 00 a month each they safe are far from me because the far we dont have money to pay for. On this for 4. Cowards but now i. Feel like and their mark people and. Ringback whatever the political belief an increasing number of poles many like polina have been attracted to the law and Justice Party policies but its a divisive situation this couple believe voting for nationalism and right wing policies is wrong its our fair share and its our job then. They have to decide. Control of the lower house gives the law and Justice Party a fresh mandate to continue were left off with policies rooted in Catholic Values set against what the party sees as a liberal or promoting minority interests against the wishes of people who have family lives. This is polands main opposition cheering their leadership in defeat accusing the victors of polarizing Society Turning state media into a propaganda operation and encouraging homophobia by making out l g b t rights are an invasive foreign influence. It was not an even struggle and there were no rules in it we didnt have a feeling that we are taking part in a fair competition or that the opponent was using honest methods. At home in the outskirts of Warsaw Poland isnt perturbed by the political rift she believes in the ruling partys mantra pride in poland traditional family values and true simmons aljazeera also. Whats billed as the largest Defense Industry trade show in northeast asia has just opened in seoul rob bryant has more. The latest in military hardware and the perfect stage for south korea to showcase its new big ticket items. Unveiled to the public for the 1st time its new fighter the k f x its most ambitious Defense Project to date. And the even more sophisticated f. 35 lightning purchased from the u. S. I think weve seen a lot of interest in the after 35 so beyond that i mean thats very good for our business of course by think its very good for the security of the region south koreas liberal president moon j. N. Is overseeing this expansion even as he pursues his policy of reconciliation with north korea which continues to develop its nuclear arsenal. This is the negative outcome of the Current Administration south korea has already said peace has arrived but this puts south korea in an illogical position because unless north korea denuclearize as they cant be peace on the peninsula. North korea has blamed south koreas military buildup in part for its testing of more sophisticated missiles in recent months and it comes as questions are raised about the long term commitment of south koreas traditional ally the United States. The sudden announcement by u. S. President donald trump to pull troops out of syria has alarmed to many here its reinforced the belief that south korea has to become more selfreliant militarily especially when its neighbors are rapidly expanding their armies. Japan under its conservative Prime Minister shinzo has increased its military spending for 8 consecutive years thats jew in part to the north korean threat but also to the increasing size of chinas military. Who put in until the root causes north Koreas Nuclear Weapons Development and its continued threats to its neighbors thats why south korea and japan have to prepare and theres chinas military buildup and its expansionist policies. North east asian neighbors seemingly committed to an arms race that no one wants to lose rob mcbride out his era song on south korea. Well still ahead. Time now for sports hes lia thank you stan bulgarias Prime Ministers demanding the head of their Football Association resign after fans made nazi salutes and racist chance at england players during mondays european qualifier the game was stopped twice after england players reported crowd incidents to the officials monkey chants were aimed at englands black players and some fans held up shirts mocking the wafers respects campaign to end racism and football parts of the stadium were already closed but ball garia serving a punishment for racist abuse in previous games loudspeaker announcements warned fans that the game would be abandoned if they didnt stop they did manage to get the match finished with england winning 6 nil im incredibly proud of all of the players and all of the staff i dont think. Its close we could be criticised for not going far enough but i think weve made a huge statement and. Frankly we were in an impossible situation to get it right to the satisfaction of everybody well gary is captain of a top of did not get go to the dressing room at half time as he pleaded with fans to stop the racist abuse but in the press conference afterwards bulgarias coach said he was unaware of any problem so today he stood still constant threat of mucha i was totally concentrated on the games i didnt actually have anything but i just talked to the English Press offices and i told them that if it is proven to be true she then we will have to be ashamed and apologize for it but once again firstly it has to be proven to be true this is if a captain spoke to the fans its probably because the fans were unhappy with the way the team was performing which was all right lets bring in our Sports Correspondent lee wellings live from london we you a for have not commented on this yet so does that maybe hint to needing a stronger stance against racism. Or you worry for always investigate these things and usually they take action the question is is the action Strong Enough the answer a lot of people would tell you is no now they have this 3 point protocol in place in fact its been in place for a decade but not used enough we rarely see it and it was used during the. Game of course the tunnel announcement we heard warning the fines when the racism was 1st heard in the 1st half then the players taken off the pitch as the racism persisted if the racism had continued to an extent very have seen a situation where and this is very where wed have had a much abandonment of course the racism did continue it just wasnt as prominent as it was in the 1st half so you wonder if the officials were actually just trying to find a way to get the much british the england players despite this vile racist abuse actually wanted to get the much finished they wanted to win it in fact to carry on the pitch install and not rely on your wife for taking action in that way but surely it has come to the town where you weigh far have to be stronger the fines are not working their paltry sum to terms that was 20000. 00 thats what macedonia were fined for racism against england players earlier in the year the stadium closures dont work the kind of action they need to look towards is to be in a position to cite a National Associations legal when will kick you out of competitions if you are repeat offenders and as we constantly say there are a lot of repeat offenders out there you knew you were a fit also dealing with another situation here on monday night last night we thought turkey perform another military salute to support the offensive going on in syria how are we thinking you a 4 will respond to this one. Well of course you are you said it will investigate the 1st military salute incident in fridays much between turkey and by india now did this have any effect on the turkish players and officials absolutely no because in the france turkey guy a guy which did have sensitivities we had french polish politicians saying that perhaps even the march should be code of it did of course go ahead but we saw off to the guy another. Military salute from turkish not just players but officials everyone in it together so its almost like theyre sending out a message to your wife we will do what we like and its up to you whether you take action all right lee joining us from london thanks for breaking that down for us lee well history has been made into asian World Cup Qualifiers on tuesday north korea and south korea played out a goal a straw as the sides met in pyongyang for the 1st time in 29 years and later saudi arabia will play their 1st ever match in palestine saudi pre saudi previously played matches against palestine in neutral countries in line with a decades long boycott of israel well the bron james has weighed into the n.

Vice president says trump spoke to take president Recep Tayyip Erdogan on monday and called for an immediate cease fire mike ben says hell be heading to the region to discuss techies campaign. Let me say the president could not have been more firm with president he would want to that. The United States of america simply not going to tolerate. Turkeys invasion of syria any further and were calling on syria to stand down to end the violence and come to the negotiating table and thats the reason the president s sending me to the region to make his intention very clear and were going to be looking were going to be looking for turkey to take strong action in that regard. Well lets recap the latest military developments on the ground turkey says its a sabotaging a safe zone along its southern border the 1st phase which stretches 120 kilometers wide and more than 30 kilometers deep into syrian territory Turkish Forces are battling for control of. The situation there is fluid with both sides repeatedly claiming they have control of the town so now in addition to take issue of making their presence felt in. They have claimed full control of tal as we see in the areas in yellow turkish led forces have also cut off the m 4 highway a vital supply line that runs through kurdish held territory from monday to iraq Turkish Forces and their syrian are lies on the outskirts of mom bitch and this sets up a potential clash with the Syrian Government troops who have now. Come inside the city as part of a deal with the kurds theyve also taken control of top and moved into i and isa assads troops are present in half of the province and the border city of commission now the turkish president says the offensive has been a success so far has been addressing a meeting of turkic countries in azerbaijan. We are on the 7th day of the operation our military operation is continuing successfully as per the safe zone map we presented to the whole world at the 74th Un General Assembly we have as of this morning cleared 1000 square kilometers from the control of the separatist terror group. Al jazeera is china stratford has this update now from. Border with syria we now understand that syrian the syrian army inside thats a very strategically important town to the west of here which is very much within the area of turkeys plan to set up this safe zone we understand that ever say fighters these are the syrian rebels. Fighters that have been brought in by the turks to participate in this operation are moving towards. Going to stand they could be as close as so 10 kilometers away. This of course is a huge concern and the focus of attention we understand at the moment very much of the russians the russians saying that they are doing all they can to avoid some sort of confrontation between the what is now 2 separate armies we also hear reports from the city of russell i know which is to the east of here which is repeatedly be claims made by both sides of control there over the last few days still on going clashes there i think its worth pointing out in terms of looking at the kind of ethnic mix in the complexities of this area. The men that are at the forefront of the Turkish Campaign those syrian rebel fighters are arabs and many of them lived in and around the beach area but they were forced out during the battle against arsenal and indeed fighting the s. D. F. They are very keen to get back into that area which of course has great historical importance for them and of course being questions being asked by military analysts and so on as to whether there is enough discipline amongst them to prevent any kind of escalation. Managing editor of the daily sabbat an english language newspaper he says turkey is watching closely to see what russias next step will be regarding the turkish offensive would be a grave mistake for this year we can refuse to come into direct confrontation with turkey secondly i think they would do russia in effect is more significant than the presence of some forces loyal to the assad regime it is going to hes conducting an operation to eat and russia are you know having diplomatic channels open and they are basically. Turkey is looking at what russia will do instead of some regime. I mean assad regime abroad is of course it was conducting an operation after it and they received the the answer or of the response. That turkey put forward and you know they were pushed back but. Recently i mean did did a relationship between y p g and assad regime is also interesting to look at because assad regime wants to was says claims to be one of the territorial integrity in syria but wait the jeep was a threat to that yet at a time like this are willing to coordinate and cooperate against turkey while the humanitarian cost of techies military operation is already being felt unicef says an estimated 70000. 00 children have been displaced in just a week of fighting while tens of thousands of people if are in need of food as they flee the violence some of those fleeing the fighting are heading to iraq semi autonomous kurdish region has been a smith is there and has this update from the hulk.
