We had a lot of land and we lived peacefully relived with fear that are very few firsts and the invaders are coming closer its difficult to gauge why a place so remote so tranquil should not is so much to the rest of the walls the Indigenous People who live here always realized it but now as the smoke fills the skies and the ashes pollute the river the rest of the world is beginning to realize it to.

A top u. S. Diplomat to ukraine testifies in an impeachment inquiry and explains how the president tried to pressure kiev to discredit his political rival. An apology and a plan chiles president announces new economic measures aimed at stopping violent protests. And russia have reached a deal to clear out kurdish backed fighters from Northern Syria and credit launched an offensive in that area last week but then suspended that operation following a u. S. Brokered cease fire step back and has more from such and russia. With only i was left of the u. S. Brokered cease fire in syria russia stopped didnt president putin offer to help to remove and this. Was at the turkish Syrian Border to go with Syrian Border troops but its delayed bespoke we still today we share turkeys concern about the growing threats of terrorism and the growth of ethnic tensions in the region these tensions and to separate this mood in recent times where in our opinion artificially created by outsiders. Goodish fighters have until next tuesday evening local time to clear turkeys 30 kilometer socalled safe zone Russian Military police will then start joint patrols with Turkish Forces along almost the entire North EasternSyrian Border. Is on the barren moving threats posed by either terrorist organization this operation in syria guarantees syrias territorial integrity and political unity we never had eyes on the countrys territory and sovereignty as turkey all steps were taken in the field we have taken with sensitivity. Both leaders agreed that the Syrian Constitutional Committee should start its work on october 30 despite the current actions on the ground put in insists the courts should be part of the political solution for syria after a long discussion with president putin not only manage to become the main power broker in syria he also gain territory for his allies syrian president assad who now gets back control over coastal border areas but we can only call this a russian success if they manage to remove and this arm goodish fighters from this 30 kilometers zone. Only down will the Turkish Military operation and according to the Russian Foreign minister who spoke after the meeting put and also made it clear that for any future solution in syria the turkish and Syrian Government have to reach their own deal russia one story 5 to 998 agreement between syria and turkey in which syria committed to stop supporting could issue fighters russia was quick to fill the vacuum left by the u. S. Withdrawal from North Eastern syria but by moscows own admission achieving any kind of lasting solution will be a long and complicated process steps last an aljazeera sochi. Well lets now take a closer look at that they are saying that ankara wants to create like we mentioned. And it will be along the tacky syria border about 30 kilometers inside syria and those joint patrols would be 10 kilometers deep on both sides of an area which runs between. And i some of inch of it has more on that syria turkey border so another deal is now in place in Northern Syria this one is between the russians and the turks turkish government have decided that it will give kurdish fighters another 5 another 6 days rather 150. 00 i was as a was declared by a president to do on when he met russian president putin that Turkish Forces will give another 150 hours for could decide to still leave this area and after that theyre going to be going in to destroy if there is anything that is remaining with kurdish fighters which turkey calls terrorists it is very interesting that it review for the 1st time that joint patrols between the russians and the Syrian Government is also going to be carried out on the border parts which are not covered by the turkish offensive on its border with syria this will be the 1st time in 80 years that assad forces would be able to come back to this border area between syria and turkey we havent heard officially from the Syrian Democratic forces the mainly kurdish led fighters but some commanders have been saying that they would not essentially want to leave these areas because they feel that this is demographic engineering that is being carried out by various parties and similar statements have been made by turkey as well that it was the kurds who carried out this demographic shift and turkey wants this safe area which is 30 kilometers deep in syrian territory so it can send back up to a 1000000 Syrian Refugees including 350000 according to the turkish president of the one who are kurds who want to go back to their areas so that they can rebuild their lives but that is only going to happen if peace returns to this part moving on and Britains Parliament has rejected Prime Minister baraks johnsons plan to fast track has backed that deal with the European Union now that means theres little chance of the u. K. Leaving the block by october 31st for a challenge reports from westminster. It is as m. P. s point out unprecedented for parliament to pass such a large and important bill so quickly yet the governments wanted its Withdrawal Agreement bill through the commons before the end of the week mr speaker i was incredibly concerned when i was reminded by my wife earlier today that we spent my wife and i spent longer choosing a school for then we have city bay this incredibly cool to kill on tuesday the legislation for leaving the European Union was facing 2 hurdles would m. P. s vote to give it more consideration and would they agree to the governments breakneck timetable the Prime Minister hopes he could focus minds with this warning if parliament refuses to allow the brics to happen and instead gets its way in decides to delay everything until january or possibly long as a great regret i would say that the book the bill will have to be pulled and we will have to go forward much as a writer may not like it well have to go forward to a general election 1st up would m. P. s give his Withdrawal Agreement build their approval in principle so the guys have it the ayes have it m.

Impact of this bill the Prime Minister is the also of his own misfortune Jeremy Corwin offered to Work Together to find a mutually agreeable timetable for us johnson responded by saying he was putting the bill on hold for now his do or die dreams of leaving the e. U. On october the 31st looks to have been dealt a mortal blow so what i was next depends on the e. U. Its been considering that letter Boris Johnson was obliged by parliament to write last saturday requesting a break that extension if it grants a long 1 january or further then as weve just heard from the Prime Minister he is going to try pushing for a general election if we get something short all more flexible than that suggests that the e.

Social analysts like mine will get it dont believe the unrest is part of a growing movement of young people who he says are rejecting the very notion of political system. There is a commonality among that the mystery the theme of calling for equality and denouncing abuse but also the possibility of a Better Future the perspective people have to do things are bad now but the future will be even worse for those children.

To be some protesters throwing stones curtains of tear gas looted by police. They try to resist ducking down lighting small fires to disperse the gas i was going to count as i was in the truth is that weve never felt like this we thought that yesterday was bad but today theyre really kicking our ass and the fire smoke helps us to feel better on the ballot papers proved a popular choice of fuel but it wasnt enough people running here because the ground was trying to block up the center there a 3rd saying with tear gas so theres a lot of nerves here was a good reason she was hit by take us kind of was the governments trying to calm things asking the organization of american states to audit the final vote count to instill some trust but to these people thats coming late and.

All just less than a week ago is here because Prime Minister abi alphabet was being hailed for his peacemaking and statesmanship abilities and now these comments a strong warning to egypt over this use of 1000000000. 00 niall down project that he says if the o. P. s is willing to go to war over he said in parliament choose day that we could get millions ready but thats not in the best interests of all of us. About egypt saying that they will take action what ican we want you to understand is that a quarter of ethiopias population is poor and young so if we are to go to war with other africans we can have many millions on the front line but was do not have many benefits it will not benefit egypt will not benefit sudan and it will not benefit us some may have the capability of firing missiles and some may say i would bomb cairo if it is for my country and my flag but peace cannot be brought by bombing and by fighting talks over the construction of this dam project collapsed earlier this month if europeans Prime Ministers do to talk to egypts president on the sidelines of a conference in the russia later this week the opium maintains it desperately needs the power generated by the sound project for its population of more than 100000000 people.

Resent it theres though did 60 to 19 in favor of the main text of the reform delivering a major victory for president joe you board so narrow you can see that it gets keystone economic proposal. I want to compliment the entire Ministerial Team the senate of the republic the National Congress and the chamber of deputies its one of the most difficult issues but at the same time the most important for brazil. Brazilian governments have failed to pass pension reform for decades the bill promises to reduce the countrys huge Social Security deficit saving the treasury almost 200000000000. 00 over didnt expect kate. It raises the minimum retirement age increases worker contributions among other painful natures. Farmwork you buy is you it will be a reform that will demand that the worker works for longer pays more for longer retires later and certainly earns less than they deserve this is the realities and why did we approve it because there is no other option like youve reached rock bottom. On tuesday brazilian stock markets hit an all time high on the expectation of the news believing the measure will boost investor own Business Confidence but it could spark protests on the streets is a bit back in july when it passed the lower house would mean brazilian worried about across the board cuts to social programs the cement pad which the german im up to it always to raise the minimum wage its natural but i dont think its proportional to brazilian Life Expectancy in my case for example i dont know if i will be able to retire. For president this is an important political victory in an otherwise controversial tenure and it opens the door to his next target and over the whole of brazils convoluted tax system i listen to them ill just say you know.

O. F.

Divided probably in 2 groups although i think there are many grays in the middle but like those supporting to stay in spain just cant vote for state level parties. But those voting for crowd to learn a point of pendants parties also would sunken very theirs if they went to negotiate actions like this are taking place every day now in barcelona while it is very peaceful it is disruptive this is normally one of the citys busiest streets but these demonstrators say they are going to go anywhere until their leaders sit down.
