The peoples side. Hello there, thank you for scwhroingjoining us. Sergey lavrov is joining the group ofgroup, gulf cooperation council. We are not giving help to anybody except to the Syrian People. The main threat to our mind and in the middle east at a whole is that which emanates from the socalled islamic state. Intelligence sharing and cooperation. Hashem ahelbarra has the story. Reporter delicate mission for the u. S. Secretary of state. John kerry is trying to convince the allies that the iran deal will bring help and prosperity. Translator the countries of the council welcomed it on the this basis and what john kerry demonstrated, on the inspection of nuclear establishments. In a bid to allay their fears the u. S. Has offered to sell advanced weapons and upgrade the regions defense capabilities. Today my counterparts and i discussed the steps that we will take and how we intend an Even Stronger more Enduring Partnership with a focus on counterterrorism counterinsurgency and also, on our cooperation in countering the destabilizing activities taking place in the region. Reporter they accused iran of backing their shia proxies and interfering in the region, accusations dismissby iran which has recently called for more cooperation with its neighbors. Russia could be the country to bridge differences between iran and its arab neighbors. Foreign minister Sergey Lavrov says russia is willing to help negotiate deals in syria and yemen. The policy of the United States with respect to syria is clear. We believe that assad and the assad regime long ago lost legitimacy. In part because of his regimes continued brutality against the Syrian People themselves. And that has been a magnet for foreign fighters. Drawing them to syria fueling the rise of daesh and other violent extremist groups. And since there is no military solution to syrias challenges, there has to obviously be a political solution. Saying u. S. s nuclear deal with iran is a good one but reestablishing it as the most powerful country in the region. Hashem ahelbarra, al jazeera doha. Lets go straight to speak with jamal el shael. You have just come out of that meeting just a few minutes ago. Tell is more where about Sergey Lavrovs statement. What did he say . Indeed barbara he did and despite that meeting when al jazeera asked him whether that signified some shift he said actually no it wasnt. This was just this meeting with the former head of the snc was just in line with russias stated belief that it should speak to all parts or all sides of the syrian political spectrum. But obviously the reality is that russia has been very much stalwart in its support to assad throughout the past four years. Qatars foreign minister pointing to that himself and that a political solution to the crisis was needed that the military approach to try and resolve the bloody civil war was not going to be fruitful by any means. The fact that this meeting took place itself lavrov coming to doha that in itself could be seen as a positive sign that some sort of solution could come about. John kerry met the Foreign Ministers of the six gulf nation we understand, basically he promised more weapons more intelligence sharing more special training for gulf states. But what does he mean specifically when he makes these commitments about arms sale . Was there any clarity about that . Reporter well, yes kerry specifically stated that what he would be or what the u. S. Rather would be selling to the gulf countries are antiballistic Missile Systems improving the defenses of the gulf countries against those missiles. However, it is ironic because hours after the gulf deal was signed obama said the countries wouldiran would beable to purchase weapons five to six years after this deal. Obviously, as it stands from a diplomatic or political front the main purpose of kerrys visit or the main stated purpose would be to allay the fears and concerns of the gulf countries and thats what appears at least to have happened through the joint press conference that he held with his qatari counterpart earlier on. Hashem ahelbarra, thank you. Lets go to washington d. C. And speak to rj rosalyn jordan who joins us live. What do you think came out of that Sergey Lavrov presser . John kerry said before he went to the middle east that he was hoping to find a way to restart the political discussion that could lead to the departure of Bashar Alassad as the syrian president. The civil war has been going on for more than four years now more than 200,000 people have been killed, upwards of 2 million have been displaced internally and across the border in turkey and iraq and jordan among other places and the u. S. Government is very concerned that the longer that the civil war in syria goes on the more destabilizing it will become to the middle east in no large part because of the rise of i. S. I. L. Which has taken advantage of the civil war to establish a beach head as it were in northern syria. So having these discussions with the Saudi Foreign minister and with the Russian Foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, the u. S. Is hoping to find a way to restart the political discussion. That doesnt mean that the u. S. Is going to abandon the air war against i. S. I. L. Targets but because the u. S. Is very concerned about getting into any sort of direct conflict with syria the diplomatic effort is becoming much more important to the administration. Rosalyn jordan, thank you.

The trains as they move slowly through here, migrants at night try hop through it cut through it in various locations in this area and try and literally grab hold of the train as it goes by in some instances. And thats why weve seen so many deaths in recent months. Now we were here last night and there was quite a heavy police presence. There were a lot of migrants here that were eventually dispersed.
