Melissa king joins us now with more on how the events overseas may affect the us president ial race. Good morning. Good morning the attacks certainly were tragic and profound. One of the effects is that it has shifted the focus of the us president ial race. For hillary clinton, the focus has shifted to her Foreign Policy experience. The democratic debate on saturday night she talked about how complicated the middle east politics are. Of course implying that as a former secretary of state, she is uniquely able to navigate those issues. So at least for the near future, look for clinton to show off report Foreign Policy chops. For republicans, the recent attacks bring a new focus to the immigration debate. Reportedly a passport found near the suicide bomber indicates that the bomber was a syrian refugee. While the bombers identity has not been confirmed, republican president ial candidates are leading the charge to stop syrians from coming into the us. In september, president obama directed at immigration officials to allow in 10,000 syrian refugees. Since the attacks, stay with me because the list is long, bobby jindal, Mike Highgate the, Ben Carson Carly Fiorina mike huckabee, ben carson this is a cbs news report. President obama is about to hold a News Conference in turkey. He is expected to answer questions in response to the paris attacks. There was a massive raid this morning and brussels belgium that apparently targeted the one suspect missing after fridays attack that killed 129 people. A local Prosecutor Says no terror suspects were arrested. That operation was more than 100 part of more than 150 rate in france and belgium. The missing side specht, Salah Abdeslam was identified a few hours after the attack. French warplanes have attacked ices targets in syria. President obama has been meeting with russian president putin and other World Leaders at a weekend summit. Were joined on the tart telephone. Market, what can we expect to hear . Reporter he will face questions about how his ices strategy might change in the wake of the attack. He just wrapped up a meeting with key european allies including the French Foreign minister and he has been pressing for more intelligence sharing. They are very concerned about the crossborder threat as refugees flood into europe and passed through europes open borders. We also know that the us has been encouraging allies particularly france and turkey to put special forces on the ground in syria to fight ices tick alongside the 50 us operators who of already to fight ices along the 50 us operators already there. He also met with putin, this is the second chat in just 48 hours. The president has been encouraging russia to join the fight. The president is speaking now. And heres president obama. [ no audio ] erdowan and the people of turkey for their outstanding work in hosting this i have been practicing that. At the g20 our focus was on how to get the Global Economy growing faster and create more jobs and i am pleased that we agree growth has to be inclusive to address the rising inequality around the world. Given growing cyber threats, we committed to a set of norms drafted by the United States for how our government should conduct themselves insider cyberspace including a commitment not to engage in the theft of intellectual property for commercial gain. As we head into Global Climate talks we have submitted our targets and pledged to Work Together for a successful outcome in paris. Of course, much of our attention has focused on the heinous attacks that took place in paris. Across the world, in the United States, and american flags are at half staff in solidarity with our french allies. We are working closely with our French Partners as they pursue their investigations and track down suspects. France is already a strong counterterrorism partner and today we are announcing a new agreement. We are streamlining the process by which we share intelligence and operational military information with friends. This will allow our personnel to pass threat information including on isoto our French Partners more quickly and more often because we need to be doing everything we can to protect against more attacks and protect our citizens. Tragically paris is not alone. We have seen outrageous attacks by isil in beirut, last month in ankara, and routinely in iraq. Here at the g20 our nations are sharing in and unmistakable message, that we are united against this threat. Isil is the face of evil. Our goal as i have said many times is to degrade and ultimately destroy this barbaric terrorist organization. As i outlined this fall at the ited nations, we have a comprehensive strategy using all elements of our power. Military intelligence, economic, development and the strength of our communities. We have always understood that this would be a longterm campaign. There will be setbacks and there will be successes. The terrible events in paris were obviously a terrible and sickening setback. Even as we grieve with our french friends, we cant lose sight that there has been progress being made. On the military front our coalition is intensifying our airstrikes. More than 8000 to date. Were taking out isil leaders, their killers, their commanders, and we have seen that when we have an effective partner in the ground isil can and is pushed back. So local forces league recently liberated and local forces are fighting to take back ramadi in syria. And isil has been pushed back in turkey. We have stepped up our support of Opposition Forces working to cut off supply lines to isil strongholds. So in short, both in iraq and syria, isil controls less territory than it did before. I made the point to my fellow leaders that if we want this progress to be sustained, more nations need to step up with the resources that this fight demands. Of course, the attacks in paris remind us that it will not be enough to defeat isil in syria and iraq alone. Here in on thalia, we are committed to strengthening border controls, sharing more information and stepping up efforts to prevent the floor and flow of fighters in and out of syria and iraq. As we just showed in libya, isil will have no safe haven anywhere and will continue we will continue to stand with leaders who are the best voices to discredit isil s warped ideology. On the humanitarian front our nations agree that we have to do even more individually and collectively to address the agony of the Syrian People. The United States is already the largest donor of humanitarian aid to the Syrian People, some poor 4. 5 billion in aid so far. But the un appeal for syria still has less than half the funds needed. Today i am again calling on more nations to contribute the resources that this demands. In terms of refugees, it is clear that countries like turkey , lebanon and jordan, which are already bearing an extraordinary burden, cannot be expected to do so alone. At the same time all of our countries have to ensure our security and as president my First Priority is the safety of the american people. That is why even as we accept more refugees including syrians , we do so only after subjecting them to rigorous screening screening and security checks. We have to remember many of them are the victims of terrorism themselves. That is what they are fleeing. Slamming the door in their faces would be a betrayal of our values. Our nations can welcome refugees who are is desperately seeking safety and ensure our own safety. We can and must do both. Finally, we have begun to see some modest progress on the diplomatic front, which is critical because a political solution is the only way to end the war in syria and you might be Syrian People in the world against isil. The vienna talks mark the first time that all Key Countries have come together. As a result i would add American Leadership has reached with American Leadership weve reached a common understanding. With this weekends talks we have a path forward to end the Syrian Regime under the auspices of the United Nations and transition toward a more inclusive representative government, a new constitution, followed by elections. And alongside this political process, a ceasefire in the civil war even as we continue to fight against isil. These are obviously ambitious goals, hopes for diplomacy have been bashed before. There are any number of ways that this latest diplomatic push could falter. And there are still disagreements between the parties, including most critically over the fate of bush are assigned. Only did not leave has a rolling series future because of his brutal rule. His war against the Syrian People is the primary root cause of this crisis. What is different this time and what gives us some degree of hope is that as i said for the first time all major countries on all side of the syrian conflict agree on a process that is needed to end this war, and so while we are very clear eyed about the very difficult road still ahead, the United States in partnership with our coalition is going to remain relentless on all fronts. Military, humanitarian and diplomatic. We have the right strategy and we are going to see it through. With that i will take some questions and i will begin with jerome car thalia of afp. Thank you mister president. 129 people were killed in paris on friday night
