Get over it theres going to be political influence in foreign policy.

Plus life on a landfill they fled violence in mali in west africa now theyre forced to build their homes on the road to stop the government denies they even exist. Are brian thomas free to have you with us it is less than 24 hours now since the u. K. And the e. U. Clinched their deal on bracks but already a new standoff is looming britains Prime Minister still has to convince parliament to back the agreement. And at this stage it is unclear if he can do so well go live to london and to brussels after this. One step closer to brags that british Prime MinisterBoris Johnson was in a boy into mood thanks to the new deal on the table this is a great deal for our country for the u. K. I also believe its a very good deal for offerings in the e. U. And what it means is that we in the u. K. Can come out of the e. U. As one United Kingdom england scotland wales Northern Ireland and together the fine print of the deal was approved by the e. U. s chief bricks to go she had her mission. Guaranteeing no hard border on iras sorel had been the main Sticking Point but he said theyd found a workable solution for Northern Ireland which is part of the u. K. Norseman island will remain an eye and to a limited set of e. U. Rulership not properly or dated to goods and this means Northern Ireland will remain in the u. K. Customs area no hard border on the island of ireland but you can customs checks at British Ports on shipments entering Northern Ireland and for goods that might end up in the e. U. Single market e. U. Tariffs will be applied. With the european leaders agreeing to back the deal now its up to the British Parliament to give its approval but the deal faces resistance here we believe it is not in the interests of Northern Ireland either economically and i fix the end all of that around a border essentially for not just regulations but for goods we have different rooms and we have no effect of consent over any of those really so all of that taken on the right means that we cannot support the state what happens if the British Parliament doesnt back the steel back in brussels you commission chief didnt have a clear answer to that question i hope between some pretty busy people and the test it has to be just when we were there would be no 4 because. The german chancellor was hopeful it would pass on this also. We didnt negotiate this deal for it to be voted down but as johnson told us he will do everything to get a majority and if that doesnt happen then well have to see the end of it. Boris johnson said he would not meet the same fate as his predecessor theresa may who repeatedly fail to get a breaks a deal approved he has now cleared an important hurdle put the divorce is still far from done. And now theres a new hurdle our correspondents lots of pots that joins us more from london and your mouth is joins us from brussels good morning to both of you a show a lot so whats it looking like this morning does Boris Johnson have enough votes to get this deal to parliament tomorrow. Well Boris Johnson knows its going to be very tight so he rushed back from brussels to london yesterday to now try to convince all the m. P. s to vote for his deal for a better deal as he says and theresa may steel that rejected 3 times but hes facing an uphill battle there reach out across the aisle the d u p the Northern IrishUnionist Party they insist that they are not on board that they indeed voting against the deal he has to reach out within his own party the hotline and now is saying look this new deal it looks like bricks it is smells like bricks that it is bricks and so they seem to be on board with voting in favor of this deal but far as johnson has also kicked out a number of conservatives out of his party because they defied him so he has to reach out to them and to a few labor opposition m. P. s who might also go for the deal so really its all about the numbers and he will have to try to convince them but it is going to be a knife edge vote that is for sure on this Super Saturday tomorrow in london Super Saturday indeed gerrard with Boris Johnson doing a lot of talking today whats the sentiment where you are in brussels the leaders think theyve made enough concessions for this deal to pass and parliament in london. That very much is the feeling here bryan the dutch Prime Minister said yesterday what else do m e ps do with 2 m. P. s in the British Parliament want. The e. U. And with the new president go should have machelp on a negotiated long and hard they worked very hard for this deal and so look theres basically 2 reasons why leaders where happy despite the fact that they hate to see the u. K. Leave the European Union a 1st of all they have the feeling that all the work they have done for 2 years hasnt been in vain and secondly come what may if a blame game comes up they will always be able to say look we free chowed we made compromises we put this deal on the table and it is you who rejected it. Lets look at a worst Case Scenario at this moment what happens if this agreement is turned down tomorrow in parliament. Well 1st of all it would be really a political showdown it would be a disaster for Boris Johnson of course but what Boris Johnson is trying to do here hes saying look parliament you have a binary choice you either vote for my ideal or we crash out of the European Union on october 31st have had no deal scenario disastrous consequences so hes trying to strong them into voting for his deal the thing is the reality is very different there is a law in place at parliament put in place as a security to force Boris Johnson to ask for yet another extension if this deal fails and this is what most likely is going to happen when it comes down to the choice of him breaking the law or asking for another extension so most likely if this deal fails in palm and we would be looking at an extension beyond october 31st maybe at a general election to change up the numbers and parliament and then maybe look at another deal. What would the e. U. Go for that would you go for an extension again what are its options if the deals voted down a long. While jungle juncker yesterday the head of the European Commission yesterday said he would rule out an extension but that is if the deal. Slides so if the deal does not fly and many here are aware of that many probably also are aware of the fact that maybe thats all part of course johnsons plan to have a new election on the back of a deal that he presented that was rejected 11 is not sure about that but what is clear is the e. U. Put all of forward to deal deal that would work for them and if it came to me extension lets say for a 2nd referendum then the only person who really yesterday made a statement to that is the head of the European Council who said from his remain or a heart he would say. Yes to such an extension there exacts so much for that from brussels author thanks to you in london where theres going to be a lot of focus today as Boris Johnson tries to convince those people who havent decided yet how theyre going to vote thanks to both. Well turkey has agreed to suspend its military operations in Northern Syria under the agreement made with top u. S. Officials will halt fighting for 5 days to allow kurdish led forces to withdraw from their positions now that deal was hammered out by the u. S. Vice president washington said it would impose more sanctions if turkey failed to comply it is unclear if the kurds will abide by this deal bice president of the United States mike pence after talks in ankara with techies leda the u. S. Vice president confirmed what up until that moment has been a rumor today the United States and turkey have agreed to a cease fire in syria. Turkish side will pause operation peace spring. In order to allow for the withdrawal of why p. G. Forces from the safe zone. For 120 hours. The americans claims the 5 day cease fire as a diplomatic victory. But its not clear if the kurdish y p g militia will fully abide by the agreement throughout the day there was heavy fighting in the syrian town of ras a line local humanitarian groups say civilians were also pinned dyna munger fighting the a night cement was completely unexpected touches present dredge up to it added one had previously said he wouldnt agree to a cease fire hes denied removes that might pence threatens tuckey with new sanctions should he fail to support the plan shortly after the Vice President tonights the ceasefire the Turkish Foreign minister gave the press his governments view of the days events. Its not the end of the operation its not a ceasefire you can only have a sense fire between 2 legitimate governments were suspending our operations so the terrorists the targets of our operation can leave the security zone. The turkish government also expects the y. P. G. Militia to give up all its weapons and will continue its dialogue with russia. Assads military backers have moved their forces into position in Northern Syria in conjunction with syrian troops. Damascus and moscow so far have shown little willingness to accept the security zone. As night fell the fighting in wrestling had almost totally stopped with only a few shots to be heard the wait his own to see how long the ceasefire will last. At the very latest on this now with correspondent shes joining us from the turkish city of. Good morning to you hows the Ceasefire Holding up what are you hearing. Well the turkish government doesnt call it a ceasefire but a pause off its military operation because it says cease fires can only be negotiated between a chit of a posses and it doesnt consider the Kurdish Forces there in syria legitimate it considers them terrorists now were getting fresh reports all the shelling and gunfire there in the syrian town over russell im which is one of the main targets of this turkish offensive it is unclear at the moment where these attacks are coming from and the Kurdish Forces the s. D. F. The last night said they would respect this says ceasefire but then again theyre not an official part of this agreement so its unclear at the moment if they would withdraw from the area washington and ankara had talked about the area along the turkish Syrian Border extending about 30 kilometers deep into syrian territory that so huge area we are talking about so it remains to be seen how things off further developing there but at least this could mean hopefully a little break for the civilians there in north in syria off to more than a week of deadly fighting ok you mentioned this huge 30 kilometer area now its supposed to be a safe zone that president wants to establish in Northern Syria to resettle some 1500000. 00 Syrian Refugees now in turkey what is the seas of opera disassociation of operations mean for his Strategic Plan to do just that. Well it appears ankara will get what it wanted there the safe zone is part of that prison add on says its his master plan to resettle many many refugees not only here from turkey but from europe as well but there has been a lot of International Criticism when it comes to this plan and one of the major questions here is of course about safety thats the question bothering many Syrian Refugees living here in turkey right now these are the people who might return who might be returned to such a potential safe zone now not many people would openly talk to us about the situation there in syria just because they are so scared about the general security situation there after more than 80 years of war but we met some people who are willing to speak and this is my report. In the distance you know mohammed can still see her homeland. Just over the horizon the syrian city of. When i see kabbani i remember my childhood my life there all my memories are over there. 5 years ago militants of the socalled Islamic State see each trickle bonnie forcing ameena and part of a family to feed to search in turkey. From here she watches as are homeless fate once again hangs in the balance the kurdish fighters who are driven out to geodes and 2015 after months of these fighting are now on the back foot in northeast syria in the wake of turkeys military offensive and there are growing concerns that i as militants could regroup. And. Weve heard that many i. A. s fighters managed to escape and that scares us were still afraid of the islamists and the fighting we have family over there and were worried about them. We talked to many Syrian Refugees who are in the border area and they all told us more or less the same thing how grateful they all on the one hand that turkey has taken them in and all skeptical they are on the other hand that the socalled safe zone president reza type add on wants to establish in syria will really be safe. Of the law has sons family fled to turkey 5 years ago from their wrists or in syria. They live in tents and trying to make ends meet with odd jobs currently there helping with the cotton harvest. Its not an easy life but its still better than living across the border in the conflict zone says a full of. The some of those men who will we hear they want to set up a safe so descend back syrians who are living in turkey. But i dont think youll be safe. And. Nobody wants to go back to a place where they feel scared. If its safe or go if not well stay here. Schundler firs one of the largest cities here in the border region with around 2000000 inhabitants every 5th president is a refugee from syria most of the turks we speak with support the military offensive its important they say because of the refugees and for their own safety. I dont think the operation is a great thing otherwise terrorists will turn into a big threat for us and drag our country into war. Because. It can do what almost its the homeland and when this area is cleared and free of terrorists they can return oh look at this. I mean a mohammed who fled qubani with her family is not that optimistic she would rather stay here in turkey its hard to see a future for her children she says in the images coming out of syria. You know youve been talking to so many people hows the ceasefire deal being perceived in turkey. Well here in taki its now being perceived as a victory it appears a turkey has the techies government has achieved most of its military objectives last night for example the hash take a cousin attack which means turkey will win was trained in on twitter but on the other side there are all of course many criticisms now towards the trump administration. Many people say now hes basically given tacky green light to extend its border into syria and they say he has betrayed the kaddish fighters that the u. S. Is the most important allies in the fight against a socalled Islamic State he betrayed them for a 2nd time where there are winners the losers and the losers here as it seems will be the kurdish that forces the cottage population in the area the Kurdish Forces will have to give up a huge piece of territory piece of land there if everything proceeds according to what ancora and washington have agreed on. Thanks so much for bring us up to date on the latest on the situation. Lets preview now and some of the other stories making the news today protests have erupted in love all over the governments plan to impose new taxes during a severe economic crisis in beirut thousands of demonstrators tried to storm the governments headquarters and walked a number of roads to reported killed in blazes that erupted near the protests. Police and protesters in the spanish region of catalonia of class for a 4th consecutive night now protesters want a long prison sentences handed down to catalogue independence leaders overturned a mass demonstration and a general strike are underway today in barcelona. Well senior u. S. Official has suggested that president dollar trump did withhold aid from ukraine in order to pressure that country to investigate the son of his political rival former Vice President joe biden acting chief of staff make more veiny later said the press misconstrued his remarks. Mulvaney comments were made to journalists in the White House Briefing room and. I was involved with the process by which the money was held up temporarily ok 3 issues for that the corruption in the country whether or not other countries were participating the support of ukraine and whether or not they were cooperating in an Ongoing Investigation with our department of justice thats completely legitimate that he also mentioned to me in past the corruption related to the d. N. C. Server absolutely no question about that but thats it and thats why we held up the money the u. S. Investigation was following an unfounded theory that ukraine not russia meddled in the 2016 election and to help democrats. In connecting the money to the investigation move amy may have provided impeachment investigators evidence of the quoter theyve been looking for. But to do not the question is whether the funds were withheld to further u. S. Foreign policy interests or Donald Trumps own political ones that could be an abuse of power and grounds for impeachment. Things have just gone from very very bad to much much worse. The idea that vital military assistance would be withheld for such a patently political reason for the reason of serving the president s reelection campaign. Is. A phenomenal breach of the president s duty to defend our national security. Backtracked saying the media had misconstrued his comments but what he did say may end up undercutting trumps denial of linking aid to sinking personal political gain. To mali now and that country has been battling a 7 year long insurgency which is seen to harvest taking control of large parts of the country thousands of people have also fled their homes because of interethnic violence many of these people have been displaced within mali as we hear from w. s funny for sure. Its only a stones throw from here to downtown only short tried from the bustle of the city to this camp but it may as well be on a different planet many in the city say they are unaware of this camp for displaced herdsman built on a waste dump this is definitely not the home or anybody would want to leave for anybody should live yet it has become the home for their 1000 people who fled from interethnic violence in central mali and yes this is their home on the landfill full of waste and there. Homes out also made of the smoke that you see around me is because of the waste thats being burnt around them. The smell is overpowering people burn waits to clear a little space creating thick smoke there drifts through this site. From here we will file a complaint against the government this cant work like this its not ok to leave trash here if you have trash you how are you supposed to keep healthy this is not easy or. Some to their 1000000 made the camp receives occasional donations of food and water every day the Children Play in the trash the threat of disease is constant. This woman is 63 like everyone here she fled from a region in central mali when the violence broke out. And im living with her mother and her newborn they are sick i used to have a good life there we lost everything and came here she says her village was burned by people farmers who fight the flooding over land and access to food. I want to find out from the government if theres a plan in place to help these people but they insist they dont even know that the camp exists. I havent seen anyone living in a waste dump them telling me honestly if i said i had seen and then i would be telling a lineup of i saw people in tents yes well arranged nice tents a temporary shelter been a minute. The mali and government is busy trying to distinguish different fires at once expanding islamist militancy and ethnic violence. The whole challenge that needs a Global Response not just to mali in one by. One if they cannot come up with a plan together then the whole challenge stays as it is. People in just one of many makeshift camps across mali living in a dire situation 1000000 government says it cant even begin to address on this there is peace.
