A controversial citizenship law leaves thousands homeless in india. We began in syria where a cease fire procured by russia and turkey a northwest it live province has come into effect the breakthrough was reached after 6 hours of negotiations between russias president Vladimir Putin and turkeys leader retch a typo on this happened in moscow a bid to back opposing sides in the syrian conflict so they have agreed to establish a 12 kilometer wide security corridor or along it lives in 4 highway which connects the government stronghold of lets talk you know with serious financial aleppo theyve also agreed on a joint patrol along that motorway that will happen later this month the Syrian Government offensive and it limits push nearly a 1000000 civilians toward turkeys border its not clear how or when theyll be able to return to their homes so it wasnt brings us up to date on the talks in moscow. It was clear from the start that this was going to be a tough meeting the partnership between put an end to one which was carefully nurtured in the past appear tense now the detectors and Russian Military facing each other in it and turkish and Syrian Forces taking a high number of casualties but a direct confrontation has been averted for now but a ceasefire it clear. This notion that we dont always agree with our turkish partners on what happens in syria but every time including all moments we manage to find Common Ground on controversial issues and find an acceptable solution based on the high level of our bilateral relations thats whats happened this time. Because well negotiations in moscow were underway fighting and continued an airstrike blamed by opposition activists on russian warplanes killed 15 civilians including women and children a few hours before the landmark meeting took place. Undoubtedly a meeting on it live is of great importance in fact the situation in the region is very tense i know that the worlds eyes are on us. Early a ceasefire as brokered by russia and turkey havent held for long he has blamed Syrian Government forces backed by russia for a start of hostilities several times before but some analysts believe that put in might be less willing to back assad as strongly as he has done so far person in. Russia help to solve it lives problem as long as it didnt lead to a direct confrontation between russia and turkey or russia to a large extent has fulfilled its obligations towards assads regime so after that russia will likely try to make steps towards ankara. The test will come on march 15th when joint patrols of russian and turkish troops are planned around the m 4 highway and the buffer zone the announcers in the meeting on thursday will have to materialize tense but constructive thats how president putin has described the 6 hour talks with his turkish counterpart the complex relationship between the 2 leaders is seriously being tested and although tensions have been reduced today nobody can predict how this dangerous diplomatic game will and. Aljazeera moscow on the cease fire deal is being seen as a diplomatic triumph for turkeys president and offer some hope for the internally displaced families as reports of a tale of the turkey syria border. Until a few days ago there were you concerns that turkey may not be able this time to get what it wants from the russians particularly about about it live so the gov the ceasefire to be implemented plus the safe corey doors and also resettlement of the civilians back into their years and i think this is going to be widely seen as a major diplomatic victory for president but as of at least for the time being because of one hand it will it means that he will have to be concerned about his soldiers deployed in the north west some province of it live because with the cease fire with the buffer zone with the Demilitarized Zone there will be no risk whatsoever for any attack targeting of those positions but i think also turkey has been very concerned about the potential for a protracted conflict in it live that would pave the way for 4000000 civilians those who were displaced to cross into turkey i think now with this agreement there will be able to go back to some of the villages japans Prime Minister shinzo are they says all visitors from china and south korea will have to undergo 2 weeks of corn chained to 2 coronavirus and will come into effect in 3 days south korea immediately responded calling the measure extremely or great of all Foreign Ministry wants the measure to be revoked and his call for a meeting with japanese diplomats yokohama new corn team for visitors from both countries will be strengthened and the be required to be quarantined for 2 weeks of the location designated by the quarantine director to be asked to refrain from using Public Transportation in the country. And pride joins me now from sol sol rob at a time then that you were there we would hope that Asian Countries to be on the same page when it comes to you know something as serious as coronavirus and theyre not really tell miss tell us more about this dispute. There is a real sense of indignation here in south korea really taken by surprise it seems as though this measure was put in place according to the South Koreans with any consultation the relationship between south korea and japan is complicated at the best of times and in our city lurks below the surface and it doesnt take much for it to be exposed and theres a real sense here that this is japan in particular shinzo abi the japanese Prime Minister playing politics here they governments in japan has come under a lot of criticism about the way its handled the outbreak of the coronavirus in japan itself theres been questions about the summer olympics going ahead or maybe being delayed and the feeling here is this is a pure deflection by the japanese imposing this ban theres 100. 00 countries now that have some sort of travel restriction against south korea increasingly this country starts to feel a bit like an International Pariah but there is a grudging acceptance here in south korea that countries have put in place these bans especially the developing countries because they simply cant afford to be importing an outbreak of the corona virus from south korea they dont have if theyre developing country the kind of medical resources to deal with an outbreak but thats not japan japan is sophisticated it has the medical resources in place still to allow people to go back and forth between japan and south korea with the effect of screening in place rather than whats being seen here is a draconian measure and this is really going to hurt economically south korea was already suffering because of various trade disputes along comes the coronavirus which is potentially crippling for the economy and then this on top of that given the importance of japan in terms of business in trade is really going to cause a lot more economic pain this is been the response from south koreas Prime Minister. Yesterday the japanese government imposed a measure practically blocking the entry of all our citizens to japan. We find this but he did write a bill and the japanese government to withdraw such an excessive and reasonable measure immediately our government can devise a proper Counter Measure against japans measures so rob what do we know about what south korea is planning to do and response to these measures from japan so south Koreas National Security Council has friday held a meeting and come out with a very strongly worded statement saying that yes its looking at Counter Measures and that it will follow the principle of reciprocity which sounds suspiciously like it could well impose exactly the same band in retaliation will have to wait and see in the same statement it also pointed up the difference in the way that south korea is dealing with this to japan south korea says it is completely transparent it knows its dealing with the crisis but it has the screening in place to produce very transparent numbers its employing world class standards embeds in screening in preventative measures and so on by comparison south korea has accused japan of falling short so this is getting very betty between the 2 and youve got to remember that from south koreas point of view just 2 weeks ago japan seemed to have a far worse crisis with the cruise ship and yoko hama and the quarantine that went wrong hundreds of people falling sick whereas in south korea we hadnt had the big outbreaks that we are now dealing with down in the south of the country and then all through that period south korea didnt take the same kind of blanket ban that japan is imposing now surreal feeling here of injustice of being unfairly treated by its neighbor ok on their private the latest from seoul rob thank you.
