so no matter where you call home al-jazeera will bring in the news and current affairs that matter to. al-jazeera. turkey continues its military build up for an operation against kurdish fighters and the warning is sounded over the potential for a new humanitarian crisis. again i've listed already watching al jazeera live from london also coming up the white house says it will not cooperate with an impeachment inquiry into president donald trump arguing he's been denied his right to due process.

as an anti austerity process deepen ecuador's government signals it's open to international mediation for a zone of the crisis. and a cash crisis at the u.n. which warns it might not be able to keep up its global commitments including paying staff at the end of the month. kurdish forces of want any military escalation in northeast syria could lead to a return of i saw and cause a mass displacement of people turkish troops are gathering near the syrian border in preparation for an offensive against the kurdish s.d. eth if there is a preemptive strike by ankara targeting the syrian iraqi border in an attempt to cut kurdish supply lines the us president denies he's abandoned kurdish fighters after announcing he would withdraw american troops from the region he's also. down

his language towards ankara praising turkey is a trade partner. the rhetoric the un france and germany have all found at the. could have a significant humanitarian impacts in the region. and reports from the turkish syrian border turkish heavy weapons aim across the syrian border towards the town of tilapia. the mainly kurdish syrian democratic forces or s.d.f. defeated eisel here in 2050 with the help of u.s. led coalition forces. the turkish government describes the main fighting force of the s.d.f. as a terrorist organization linked to its outlawed kurdistan workers' party which is fought against the turkish government for decades the s.d.f. control around 430 kilometers of syrian territory along the turkish border they have fought and worked alongside the u.s. troops for years they say u.s.

presidents don't trumps decision to withdraw the nearly 1000 american soldiers is a stab in the back one that gives turkey an opportunity to attack that turkey and how they said threats made by turkey to attack the area is not something new they have consistently done it for years we as syrian democratic forces take the matter into account and are fully prepared to fiercely respond to any imminent attack on syrian soil. turkey's government says it wants to create what it describes as a safety zone of around 30 kilometers in the site syria so around 2000000 of the 3600000 syrian refugees in turkey can return. what you're looking at there is a turkish artillery position now locals tell us that the army came a couple of weeks ago to set that position up we want to cross the border as the air forces are saying any military operation by turkey could risk the global fight

against leisel there are cells of eisel fighters in s.t.'s jails the us president donald trump says turkey must bear complete responsibility for any eisel fight is that a scape during a military operation turkey has so far offered no clear plan about how to deal with thousands of children are still fighters on the syrian side of the border towns like to lobby out people who have already suffered years of war are afraid and says . it more in ops people will be wanting to blend displaced there should be go if you ask anyone saying we're not leaving but eventually we will be displaced. the prospect of more suffering for the people of northern syria is very real the turkish army says preparations for a potential military operation are complete. al-jazeera on the turkish syrian border well as the situation develops the u.n.

secretary general has called on all parties to exercise maximum restraint there i spoke to some u.n. ambassadors about the risk of a turkish offensive in syria. we have heard rumors of turkish interventions and it's brings concerns to hers it could have significant humanitarian impact on this region. we are still very concerned with the fights against day the global coalition has been doing a great job since 20140 it's a success and we should note job it is a success day she still present in syria in iraq the fight against day she's not over with regard to the north east of syria of course is very worrying. we know the concerns that turkey has but again there's only a political solution and we are very afraid that any. military

operation will again have disastrous humanitarian consequences so we are indeed concerned about what we have been reading about the situation. where u.s. president donald trump has invited his turkish counterpart raja to the white house next month how could how small details. what we do know is there's been a real shift in tone with regard to the u.s. president his relationship with turkey i mean just 24 hours ago the u.s. president was promising on twitter to obliterate turkey's economy if it did anything that was not consistent with the u.s. wishes now the u.s. president on tuesday morning promising a very strong relationship with turkey saying things and reminding perhaps u.s. voters particularly that turkey is an important trading partner that there is an important value to the nato relationship that the 2 share and that there is a partnership when it comes to the collaboration of the building of the f. $35.00 fighter jet that the u.s.

of course is very fond of now in the midst of all of this the u.s. president is also saying that he will not in any way abandon the kurdish fighters that the u.s. has been fighting alongside to defeat eisel in recent years but i can still tell you that the shift in syria strategy out of the u.s. president that was announced late on sunday evening is not sitting well with even members of his own republican party one of the latest senator marco rubio who has called the president's stance morally repugnant and a stain on the nation's reputation even as the president touts the benefits of the relationship with turkey in the united states there is considerable concern about turkey's actions into northern into the northeast region of syria and how that could affect the can the kurdish people particularly the kurdish fighters that have been so loyal to the united states.

the white house says it will not cooperate with an impeachment inquiry into president donald trump it says the investigation which was launched by democrats without a full vote by the house of representatives violates a constitutionally mandated process trumpet ministration has also blocked the u.s. ambassador to the e.u. from appearing in front of congress as part of the inquiry my kind of reports. ambassador sunderland had flown back from brussels and was eager to appear agreement for the deposition had been reached at the state department but then at half past midnight a voicemail was left on someone's lawyers phone saying the trumpet ministration would not allow him to give evidence the failure to produce this witness. the failure to produce these documents. we consider yet additional strong evidence of structure and of the constitutional functions of congress

a co-equal branch of government republican committee members all back to the white house move what we see in this impeachment is a kangaroo court and chairman shift is acting like a malicious captain kangaroo there was no pressure whatsoever coincidentally or not a phrase very similar to that used to by the president an hour earlier unfortunately he would be testifying before a totally compromised kangaroo court treated president trump where republicans rights have been taken away and true facts are not allowed out for the public to see republican members of the house committees insist democrats have been selective in what evidence to make public particularly of that provided last week by u.s. representative to ukraine could focus which made clear u.s. diplomats had been discussing the preconditions for a meeting between president trump and his ukraine counterpart this has to be

a fair process and when you have a press release being drafted by our democrat colleagues cheery picking text messages when the full text of ambassador bowker's testimony last week would have exonerated this president let's release it ambassador sunderland was mentioned repeatedly in the testimony made public his texts and emails indicating he was in direct communication with the white house throughout the discussions about ukraine his evidence is regarded this critical in terms of understanding the motive behind the trumpet ministrations engagement with the president of ukraine and the house committees are insistent he must testify a formal subpoena has now been issued calling on ambassador sunderland to appear with all these documents. mike hanna washington. the u.s. senate intelligence committee has found russia was behind a social media disinform ation campaign designed to influence the 2016 presidential

election the report outlines how social media platforms were used to sow division and spread fake news in efforts to get donald trump elected also in jordan has more from washington d.c. . the report from the senate intelligence committee is part 2 of its investigation into illegal foreign interference in the 2016 presidential election as many people already know it was the internet research agency run by a man with very close ties to the kremlin that was behind the massive social media manipulation that was designed one to destroy political support for hillary clinton the democratic nominee to to build political support for donald trump the republican nominee who is now the us president and 3 something that many people did not know before now to want to destroy the reputations of those republicans running

against mr trump including the u.s. senators ted cruz and marco rubio and so the senate intelligence committee is calling on the general public on the u.s. government and on tech companies to try to find ways to promote more transparency to try to promote ways of closing off the back doors or security flaws that allow incorrect information to jump from website to website with rapid speed and 3 it does call on the american public to be much more sophisticated about what it reads on social media to be much more skeptical to ask questions to do research and not simply like or read tweet information just because it seems to confirm their world view they had no that that might be the hardest part of trying to stop what they still say is a very deceptive disinformation campaign leading up to the 2020 election.

pays out jazeera but the united nations. the president of the european council has accused the british prime minister of engaging in quote stupid blame games as the bracks a deadline edges closer this is british media say the german chancellor has made it clear to boris johnson that a brics a deal is overwhelmingly unlikely or ensley reports. by the time boris johnson's cabinets arrive for their morning meeting westminster was awash with the news that downing street had decided to play hardball with the european union. probably they haven't even been briefed on the suggestion of the u.k. looked like readying itself to collapse the talks on a compromise deal but that does appear to be the suggestion so just with a delaying disruptive and annoying tactics of the opposition we say on behalf of the 17400000 enough enough enough we need to leave. downing street then brief that the german chancellor had demanded that the economy of northern ireland stay in the

news but in the last nail in the coffin but the e.u. insisted the talks were not yet dead technical talks are continuing to date so i don't see how talks could have actually been broken down if they are happening today and in the days to continue there is no denying the loss of faith though the president of the european council donald tusk tweeted this boris johnson what's at stake is not winning some stupid blame game at stake is the future of europe and the u.k. as well as the security and interests of our people you don't want to deal you don't want an extension you don't want to revoke. which is latin for where are you going. with parliament suspended from wednesday opposition parties now assume johnson will call an election next week after accepting a breakfast extension as demanded by parliament and then campaigning to leave the e.u.

with no deal by getting them to then offer the extension perhaps on the 17th of october on the 18th of october when european council meet he would then be able to say to parliament and to jeremy corbyn in particular i've got the stench i want my general election now and i think in those circumstances jeremy corps will be highly likely to say yes the blame game between london and brussels mirrors the entire brics a debate there's precious little left except bad blood certainly the european union never really thought that boris johnson administration was actually interested in the deal because his proposed compromise over what happens in northern ireland is so complicated and convoluted the e.u. thinks it was basically set up to fail it is assume though that if boris johnson asks them for an extension to breakfasts they will grant states if only as a last chance hope that a different government might be elected in a national election which could save the u.k. and the e.u. from a no deal bricks it morally al-jazeera in london. french president emmanuel mccall
