But we begin in turkey where the parliament is expected to vote in the next few hours on a government motion to deploy troops to libya ancora supports the un backed government in tripoli thats facing warlord when if i have those forces they launched an offensive to capture the capital last april turkey says its troops will protect its rights in the mediterranean and its interests in libya and tripoli recently signed deals on military cooperation and maritime boundaries meanwhile greece israel and cyprus are also about to sign off on an agreement to transport gas from the Eastern Mediterranean sea europe that said all this with turkeys deal with libya to extract gas from the sea or man was otherwise heard to stand by for us in libyas capital tripoli but 1st lets head straight to uncle or where mohamed is live mahmut 1st of all is this proposal likely to pass the Turkish Parliament. Yes very likely our. Ruling members here in the parliament in uncut why its called there will be able to the is the bill without much effort because together with this see which we see which is allied to present it on. Parity they are. Confident they will be able to pass only the the sea which is little pollution but 2 with to 6 a members in parliament which is so thought all d pauls outrightly to it but theyre saying theyll fly in the old decision and that i would not think in one of the Conference Rooms trying to figure out how to vote so yes its expected to pas and were seeing some sort of an accelerated poll says with Parliament Coming out of recess to discuss these key is really to deploy its troops to leave you. And i am it just reminds us if you were its what is turkeys interest in libya. Although if theres a line. Turkey is on the right side of his theory of supporting a government. Recognized by the United Nations not as they say a coup proles have meaning huffed general hof that whos been supported they say by some gulf to European Countries in north africa such as it but the real deal here is turkey is trying to call her act time bound by the agreement it signed with the d. N. A. Government in libya in tripoli the one that 2nd lies by the United Nations of course of these time Boundary Agreement gives turkey only to be told your claims on them that its rainy and also increases its influence they are the time other countries like cyprus greece israel and egypt trying not only to extract the gas but ship its 2 year old through the mediterranean and turkey had been cornered by the agreement between those countries had been left out salt also on these has now sold souls given it good way to influence and it is trying to protect the agreement knowing very well about the hospital takes over tripoli and gets into the culprits hole and in power the deal will be obsolete and that is what is it is really trying to avoid ok mohammad said joe a lifer as an anchor for ny thank you lets cross over to tripoli and i were. Standing by mahmoud if this trip deployment is a preach how does this change the military dynamic the balance of power in libya. Well have to well definitely change the balance of power on the ground as you know today that all eyes in libya are on turkey to see whats going to come out of Turkish Parliament session today as you know how he seems to be the only Major Military supporter of the. Government forces and west of libya on the contrary on the other hand have to his camp have been supported by an International Powers several concert have been behind have to as you know hala including the United Arab Emirates egypt and france and today military command and southern tripoli say that they have been noticing that have the forces have been accelerating the fighting greece simply in an attempt to proceed towards the Capital City Center it seems that half the forces are trying to achieve an advancement on the ground before he decides to send troops to. Libya as you know that because this is going to definitely change the balance of power on the ground in favor of their government to force also have those forces seem to be trying to gain more ground before berlin meeting as you know that believe meeting is supposed to be held in corporation with their contraries region and International Countries concerned with the libyan issues so it seems that help that his forces are trying to gain more ground in this batch of to control tripoli so that they can have a bit of our porch unity on the negotiating table in all cases the Government Forces say that if have to us forces don arent have any legal standing to recruiting russian mercenaries from the vagal company. Then village a government which is the government of National Accord has the right to. Bring get foreign troops in terms of the military agreement with another illegitimate government which is the government ok mahmouds of the one Heard Joining us from tripoli thank you lets stay with this were joined now by sam a humvee hes the editor in chief of the International Interest and joins us now from london good to have you with us here on aljazeera resoled many people weighing in on libya lets focus specifically on turkey why do you think theyre getting involved and backing the g. N. A. T. In particular because given the advance of afters forces and the support that have to have i mean this is something of a gamble is it not. 1st of all we have to remember that turkey is actually supporting the g. N. A. T. In repenting have to for the last 8 months you remember that in the 1st few weeks of the conflict after the seized turkish hostages and complain that turkish drones were holding his advance into tripoli its only because the Russian Support over the last 1 3 months that weve seen have to actually make advances prior to this it was a stalemate but turkey has another reason to get a vote anybody who brings out a map of the Mediterranean Sea will see that there is a choke hold forming you see to the northwest there is greece to the west there is south cyprus and to the south there is egypt in other words its forming this block on Turkish Maritime interests if have to take control of tripoli hafter is backed by the u. A. E. And by egypt both of them are antagonistic towards turkey in other words it completes this chokehold this is why libya is as important to turkey as syria and this is why we see that for turkey its not about several its not about the government of National Accord its not about rescuing the Libyan Government even though that is what it wants to do at this moment in time it doesnt it its a were ready to accept any government in libya that is formed by the people or comes out of negotiations as long as half that is not the dominant force as long as the u. A. E. Is not the prime influence as long as egypt is not the prime influence as long as france which has for many years prevented this development of turkish relations with the e. U. As long as france is not the primary power and we see from this agreement thats been signed between greece egypt and cyprus that turkish fear is are not unfounded they have reason to fear how can a country such as turkey be excluded from an agreement in the Mediterranean Sea the fact that it has been excluded excluded shows that there is a targeted campaign from egypt from israel and from greece to isolate turkey to prevent it from having access to the mediterranean this is all according to the turkish perspective and this is why we see that they are ready to deploy troops in libya in order to prevent that chokehold from actually coming into practice and this is what. Do you think this move has for the developments in the east mediterranean because there are several interests there trying to exploit natural gas reserves but also these pipelines Getting Energy from israel and the Eastern Mediterranean into europe what implications does this move by turkey potentially have. I think we have to 1st and foremost remember that for turkey and indeed the attitude is that the cuts coming out of the we have to remember that they have felt that they have had to force their opinion the force of themselves on everybody else in order to get them to listen in syria or to get a wanted to save his own for many many years and he was ignored by washington he was ignored by the e. U. And he was even ignored by russia and iran only when he threatened to enter unilaterally the americans backed down and did russia back down and everybody else and say ok and again now we understand you have Security Issues would give you the save zone in other words turkey is saying i have cried out for ages and said you guys lets cooperate on the mediterranean lets share this guest lets talk about exploration rights lets sit at the table and negotiate everybodys been a given ignoring turkey because its becoming more expensive power is becoming a strong country its no longer a 3rd to category country its no longer on a par with saudi arabia and egypt it has surpassed these countries and become a country that can actually impose its will on the International Community and input and sit at the negotiating table with the likes of russia with the likes of the u. S. So when we talk about the impact of the Eastern Mediterranean the choice is not necessarily for turkey to take the choices on the countries to say look do we bring turkey to the negotiating table and listen to some of turkeys concerns not to respond to all of them but some of them so that turkey doesnt feel that it has to use force or are we so terrified of ed again do you believe that and again because he lost istanbul he might lose the elections that are coming in the next elections so lets be patient and again will shout for a while hell try to use force but in the end hell lose and then well have a more insular turkey once again well have the likes of even more glue and c. H. B. And that insular turkey will make sure that turkey no longer exact itself on the Foreign Policy this is the gamble that greece israel and egypt are having they are gambling that everyone will lose the next election so there is no need to listen to him this is why we see turkey flexing its muscle there while you see turkey insisting that it has to get involved in libya ok im sorry to cut you off there sorry hamza but we are out of time great to get your thoughts and thank you very much indeed for joining us there from london. I taught once top military officer said the mean has been killed during a Helicopter Crash landing 7 others were also on boards when the helicopter made that Emergency Landing on the north of the islands seems been dispatched the Defense Ministry says there could be survivors well earlier the Inspector General of taiwans air force outlined the rescue efforts. The helicopter was affected by the weather visibility is not very good we have yet to clarify the troops on the ground concede here ground after the aircraft disappeared from the radars 2 helicopters immediately took off from sunshine airport also 19 men set off for the rescue operation we have yet to confirm the extent of the aircraft damage some of the passengers are still stranded in the wreckage and some of them are we are waiting for information from people at the site. Feingold as an asian policy risk analyst he says this crash will impact the campaign in the lead up to the president ial election on january 11th. President as well as the parliament of taiwan will be elected on january alive as you have this tragedy does occur within a few days of the election and of course one of the most prominent issues in this election is taiwans National Defense with regard to threats from china so this kind of accident involving 16 year leadership will unfortunately become part of the political discussion in the final days before taiwan selection the incumbent president s trying way and shes been a supporter of increased military spending social continue to give that message to the public to be hopefully itll be a period of no campaigning whether its the rest of today or tomorrow but once the candidates return to campaigning i think youll see president s emphasize that she has been a supporter of the military and shes been a supporter of increased military spending and the other side will probably look a way to criticize for example by saying yeah you spend more money on the military but youre not spending it correctly youre not spending it on a not me his for example thatll probably be the talking point from the other side still to come here on aljazeera poland all of the netherlands that those governments in science on what it would like the country to be called.
