Allied again in the fight over syrias border territory the u. S. And turkey supports in the offensive against kurdish my sense. Hello and welcome to aljazeera life from my headquarters in doha with me elizabeth purana coming up. Anger over the evidence the economy boils over as protest in the streets. Of agreement reached with the European Union but bars johnson still faces a battle to get it through the u. K. Parliament. And a u. S. Ambassador says President Trump of outsourcing Foreign Policy to his person of the noise rudy giuliani. Turkey and the u. S. Have reached a deal to halt the offensive in northeast and syria was reached after u. S. Vice president mike pence traveled to capitol for talks with president ed of the one where kurdish fighters have been given 5 days to withdraw from a region where turkey wants to enforce its socalled safe zone some calls who want to begins our coverage from ancora which president. Very came with an ultimatum and left with a deal a cease fire in arms formulas in syria by the u. S. And turkey after hours of talks among the do you know how pain patch up relations between the nato allies that have been tested by turkey is a military operation against the wife. Turkey deems the sirico despite to root a terrorist organization the United States and turkey have agreed to a cease fire in syria. Turkish pause operation few spying. In order to allow for the withdrawal of y. P. G. Forces from the safe zone. For 120 hours all military operations under operation piece spring will be pause in operation the spring will be halted entirely on completion of the withdrawal the agreement promises collection of y p g have opponents and the disabling of their fortifications and all other fighting positions they will have to withdraw from in a reactor that is 32 kilometers deep expected to eventually become a safe zone that turkey has sowed for months the us is still committed to cooperate with the Syrian Democratic forces made up mainly of kurdish swipe e. G. Even though theyre no longer aiding them militarily and the ceasefire means it will not impose sanctions on turkey. Im very happy to report tremendous success with respect to turkey and i want to thank president everyone i want to thank our Vice President my parents. Secretary of state bike bob baer great job all of the people that we sent over the last 3 days we said to nearly group this is an amazing outcome this is an outcome regardless of how the press would like to damp it down this was something that theyve been trying to get for 10 years you wouldve lost millions and millions of lives they couldnt get it without a little rough love as i call them in. Turkey also believes its got what it wanted a safe zone that will be primarily enforced by the turkish army and increased cooperation by the 2 sides in ensuring the deal sticks at this case. We will not stop the operation yet but we will put it on hold because a cease fire can only be agreed between 2 soften states and terrorists who are the target of our operations so we are putting it on hold to allow these terrorist organizations to withdraw from the area once they leave the area and completely withdraw then we will stop our operation. Socialist said turkey had given no commitments on what will happen to bonnie but pence said there had been no Turkish Military action against the town which has been under control of the y p g for some years Syrian Democratic forces led by the kurdish Fighter Group y peachey said they would abide by the cease fire but would not with throughout the sprites agreement within turkey and the u. S. It is still unclear exactly how things will unfold on the ground as the u. S. Pulls out from syria russia continues to fill the vacuum and the Syrian Government finds the brokered deal fake and with the wife gauging with the Syrian Government and russia there may be many new questions i had seen them because so little aljazeera. And saying a ha that has more now from china or for near turkeys border with syria. Turkey is calling this a win in the words of the foreign minister we got what we wanted and turkey got what it wanted because it conditioned a cease fire to a withdrawal of the kurdish led Syrian Democratic forces and of course the United States guaranteeing that turkey can create a safe zone this is what could turkey wanted to do create this stone in order for millions of refugees to return but its not just that what happened is that these 2 countries nato allies have now restored their alliance a 7 decade old alliance before the arrival of the high level u. S. Delegation to ankara relations were at an all time low now we heard the u. S. Vice president call turkey an ally describe the relationship strong what this means for turkey is it is has been empowered it gives it a stronger bargaining position when the turkish president meets his russian counterpart in sochi next week russia of course a main power broker in syria russia criticizing turkeys military operation in syria in fact it has deployed its military police along front lines in the north east of the country filling the vacuum following the withdrawal of the u. S. Military and basically telling turkey you cannot advance any further what russia wanted from turkey is pull out a military pull out from Northern Syria altogether and put in wanted or to go on to reach some sort of a security arrangement with the Syrian Government security arrangements that will allow the Syrian Government to return to the border so now erdogan meets gotten stronger every time the relationship between turkey and the United States goes sour russia uses this as an advantage but this cease fire deal if it holds will stop the violence in the short term but it is not a solution in the long term because damascus is making it clear that it now considers a safe zone that turkey will create an occupied territory and. The Syrian Democratic forces the kurdish led s. D. F. There saying yes we will comply with the cease fire we will withdraw but only from the area between the Syrian Border towns of tel aviv and russell lane which means that the s. D. F. Will can continue to be an enemy of turkey and the front lines around that safe zone could not be really safe. Well lets get more on this from committee how could she is joining us live from dallas where President Trump is about to hold a rally in his ring patting himself on the back of the committee despite all the condemnation that he abandoned americas kurdish allies. Yeah the u. S. President congratulating the kurds and really applauding the White House Team that helped negotiating this deal we expect youll hear from the u. S. President when he takes the stage in the next hour he has been as he touched out of the ground as we heard earlier in the program. Really taking a bit of a victory lap with regard to this given the criticism that he received in advance that he would not be able to achieve any sort of negotiated cease fire but i can tell you that here at the ground there is a small diaz of kurdish in the United States about 100000 there is a protest here it is small but it is very vocal and they are not happy about the cease fire agreement fact they say that turkey should be not allowed to be in nato they dont feel that this is an agreement that turkey can abide by and for that there is a strong feeling that the United States has abandoned the kurdish fighters that u. S. Soldiers fought alongside in the effort to defeat eisel so there are very strong sentiments but when you speak to the wider truck supporters they will the president and his sentiments that the United States never should have been involved in this conflict in the 1st place they feel that the United States has been assisting or for more than a generation now in the broader middle east and that they feel its time for american soldiers to come home so well there is some criticism here on the ground in dallas texas there are many more that are supporting the president s actions and there are still others they can believe who do traditionally support the president s actions republican politicians who share the concerns of those in the kurdish diaspora and they were no doubt be watching what happens in northeastern sylvia very closely over the next few days. Absolutely the u. S. Congress has been very vocal bipartisan all those unity in a mostly divided congress that this was not the right strategy for syria from the part of the white house not only did we see that this week of the vote in the house but weve now had very strong words from democrats who control the house of representatives they have promised god only knows you ploesti to leave it there but also in the Senate Chuck Schumer to put in place bipartisan sanctions given the fact the white house has promised to lift the sanctions on turkey they expect that vote to take place next week but youre right members of the president s own party have also been very concerned about this agreement namely saying theyre not sure turkey will abide by it and also feeling that the situation is very fluid and has to be watched the next few days if the strongest criticism coming from mitt romney a former president ial candidate a member of the president S Republican Party concerned about the relationship with the kurds moving forward feeling they have been abandoned once again saying what we have done to the kurds will stand as a blood stain on American History committee thank you very much for that Committee Held at live in dallas texas thank you. Now to a story that were watching very closely thousands of people are demonstrating in lebanons capital beirut and some of the biggest protests the engine is.

There we are staying on the streets we will come out tomorrow and after that we are not here i want to say we are here of a few food breed over everything i am attacked. As it to me at the end of the day if i stay hidden behind social media and i dont go out into the streets how can i dare ask for my rights where do i start 1st of all i want to fight corruption and i want to ask those in charge why do you have this you are living at this level and i am running out of bread.
