Look at this from by the true times perspective then its more of a marriage of convenience if you look at that from original perspective in how the 3 countries act interact in syria than its more frango. I so youre right recently that the after the platform has started to lose its steam and that russia is now more actively trying to get the arab states involved in managing what essentially is an arab problem being now mediated by non arabs has there been any progress on that front well from the very beginning actually jordan joined the ass in the form of back in 2018 i believe and was the 1st arab observer state now in beginning of august there was and roundabouts in the talks and the. Iraq and lebanon joint so basically now we have all countries neighboring countries taking part in this process except of course taking part always clearly sitting on the sidelines and watch its important to send a signal to the arab audience to the arab street that these 3. Actors russia iran and turkey understands how its vitally important to get on board arab states and i think that the and the standing that it is inevitable that sooner or later countries like egypt with about 1w1cw people and important actors like saudi arabia or you a york. I have ultimately be on board with this new original magnesium original platform so i think that understanding is coming more and more to the aleuts now from my perspective i think the founding members would also benefit from a new company because. Ive got the impression that with every new meeting their mutual frustrations are growing and if we take the latest the anchor and made up we know that russia chair here and that will last at full longer than expected and yet it finished with the latest seeming i wouldnt call them a nerd but clearly depleted and we know from their later statements that the disagreements the pressing disagreements over what to do in it lip havent been resolved so how long do you think the status quo which turkey is clearly interested in maintaining but russia is very unhappy about how long could it last well known no one knows exact dates and timelines of this but you can see that actually even despite having this disagreements and repeating themselves both put in there to go on from year to year on the same issues that we need to stick to this eclipse deal when it to. Fight terrorists but anyways russia continues supporting Syrian Arab Army local operations which slowly but the great you are moving up north taking more and more terrorists and despite turkish retore of and even actual increasing militarization posts turkish position posts in the area it doesnt stop both leaders and countries on prating but at the same time its kind of like. The agree to disagree and to continue this paths because to look at this brought up. Picture it the provinces to connect it with the history fred is so North Eastern syria where similarly both putting rouhani support their guns plans for this buffer zone probably in exchange for altimetry getting it live on the damascus controlled well the east of your freighters area has not been formally discussed yet lets stick with the evening for the moment do you think turkey is deliberately dragging its feet or is it indeed so challenging to you put into practice what has committed to on coras. Ability to influence militants and terrorists and even opposition on the ground of over exaggerated because for the last several years i mean it. Couldnt stick to its commitments even for the last year we see that its basically failed to implement what it promised to actually personally to put in there against the us will would make everything to stop or prevent attacks on Russian Military infrastructure russian personnel russian objects and also a syrian army but that continues so here its also very hard to took its leadership took knowledge that and. Basically object themselves from what they previously been committing for 4 years supporting a position groups and rebels on the ground and now just you know about they also made commitments do you see those commitments. Its difficult but but im not its the game is going on thats and again its impossible to look at it lip exclusive that it live as an isolated issue its tightly connected with again not just syria because that is more strategically important for their gun and in the prism or a bargaining chip but from my understanding russias ability to influence things on the ground in the east if you freydis is also very limited i mean moscow can offer its rhetorical support but can it provide anything practical in return for practical steps that it wants turkey to take well it seems to me that russia is trying to act through turkey so basically backing its plan and. Probably. Implementation of this buffer zone resettling to up to 3000000. 00 refuges to this area is that will certainly create a station of pressure on syrian kurds and United States which actually would. Help took to strike more favorable deal with United States on that area and also that might help to convince kurds to be more flexible and prone to dialogue and talks with damascus and here moscow will come. Useful broker. Can ask a provocative question many in moscow believe that the turks back in 2015 after the shooting down of the Russian Military jav and a very strong economic push back from us but that they have learned the lesson. That they wont try moskos patients again is that still a safe assumption. Well i dont see any reason why on korea would pursue this. Mis logic or even during the idea of repeating that scenario and i think that in the last its already been 3 or 4 years to countries managed to establish a mechanism of military to military intelligence detergents channels of communication to basically avoid any potential clash or incident which could slide into you know bigger compensation interestingly it was said in ankara that russia and turkey intend to step up their operational coordination which i take as an indirect indication that the Syrian Army Offensive on that leap is likely perhaps to intensify and turkey may want to. Protect its assets now the rebel crowd has a lot of Media Support in the west do you expect the outcry over humanitarian concerns to be just as loud as it used to but he didnt stop i mean yes it did i mean been its been almost continuous in the same level well i think the level actually decreased significantly and. I think there is a. The reason why it happened because in the past theres humanitarian concerns were used to as a means of stopping the offensive but nowadays many of the sponsors of the armed opposition i then know that there or they have lesser interest in keeping this war going so i think some concern is there with its much last express than before probably but just in the run up of the. Ancora summit there were several sorts of publications saying that Turkish Military is increasing the number of the observation posts in a loop in the bead to basically slow down or prevent syrian army backed by Russian Forces offensive to over its towards the area so and that opposite to what youre saying. Trying to pursuing it go of like dragging this you know in it even deeper like slowing down the freezing the status quo but come on i mean. How i may be running into problems with the turks here but i dont take the humanitarian concerns at face value because theyre also known for abusing human rights quite substantially so maybe theyre using their concerns for their own pragmatic interest what i want to ask you though is im sure both russia and syria would love to have the United Nations or some International Organization to manage the humanitarian aspect of that offensive is there any chance of that happening but i think thats impossible and russia or the explicitly told that that without. Eliminating terrorist threat you cannot you know get humanitarian aid in there one of the. International red cross is still working there right but if you want to inquiries amount of material and aid flowing to. Make sure its reaching its you know target audience not terrorists or. Terrorist organizations in to make sure that. The state structures municipal structures are in place not that of depart in the butt but the local ones and for that and that one of the major russians argument that we need to and as well they call turks to do the same to increase is push. Against terrorists in the loop which will open up the road for increased humanitarian aid to. Refugees coming back whatever let me ask you a quick question about one more. Participant of their talks and this is. Obviously iran there was one interesting moment during the televised proceedings when. Rowhani kind of turned to air though on and he said that quote the aliens will leave sooner or later but well continue to be neighbors and clearly he was referring 1st and foremost to the americans but some interpreted that as a as a job against the russians do you take it this way and compared to the turkish frustrations with moscow how big are the rainy and frustrations with russia. Right its interesting no it but if you look at you know russia turkey and iran russia actually is a neighbor of both countries not true. And blacks so russia. Views both countries as neighbors and even the ron and turkey also has russia as a neighbor so i wouldnt arguing that rouhani also meant russia so i dont take well i actually we have to take a very short break now but well be back in just a few moments. Israels parliamentary elections to begin ended in deadlock feel after it is divided divided on the political right sitting Prime MinisterBenjamin Netanyahu says its either my right wing blog or a dangerous backed government how does this kind of rhetoric bode for the palestinians in middle east ability. Prices for constructing this was to. A bio degradable scaffold which is porous and when this is inserted beneath the skin when the skin is suctioned over the scaffold over a period of about 6 months you have to shoot in growth investor always eisen occurring in other words the cells the mule in your body grow into the scaffold it grows its own blood supply so now this is fully integrated as part of my arm its a living. Welcome back to well the part of me that likes him plenty of middle east expert at the Russian InternationalAffairs Council election just before the break a rare discussing rouhani has remarked but he was clearly not the only leader who who made a splash in media splash the russian president as well tried to crack a joke. About saudi arabia missing the chance to buy russias air Defense Systems which according to him could have prevented the latest attack on its Oil Facilities that jew both from area and throw money but i wonder if its perhaps a bit too risky to joke at the saudis expense there was and that the kind of people that. They would take lightly somebody sense of humor right but its again a matter of an interpretation i dont personally see that wouldnt actually crack a joke about saudi arabia quite the opposite he just publicly opened up an opportunity for saudi arabia to you know it was its in good with russia and they were technical sphere and also we know for sure that talks on. Saudi by russia group and including hundreds are to go in so that it will definitely top that among other things put in a visit to saudi arabia later this year but also want to point out that it actually. More interesting to see what is the reaction of iran because actually around here was demonstrated as a we could play because he was the only nation with 300 and turkey bought 400. Put in by it so directed by again the more sophisticated. Expert i think thats a very good marketing i mean they can always go back to russia but that will be going up the question how iran would view and perceive the situation when saudi arabia will be equipped with a better Defense System than iran but if the 2nd agree with me that it was put in a very sort of joking way and as we say here in russia there is only so much joke in any joke saudi arabia spends billions on in defense this how is it possible that a drone or a dozen of drones as claimed would be able to penetrate so deep into its territory and costs colossal damage. Well some experts argue that lack of training of the soda personnel who is in charge of that and secondly. As far as i know there is no specific on time drone weapon its been on the development but. Still when one area of the United States to speak it be cops some sort of i am not an expert on the on the military technical characteristics of weapons but i mean its the 1st time basically which when saudi arabia faces such such an attack on such a critical and their g. Infrastructure so that just indicates. The necessity and need to wait or take sometimes even more billions on defense and many actually no more billions but to spend the more wisely and broker that also what would in try to refer to so that probably spend some more money on buying some russian equipment instead of american because the russian equipment also comes with the expertise and the obligation to trains nationalist and randy to me and already we have russia has an. Advantage because over the last year or 2 the russians mean bayhs in syria been under numerous attacks also by drones and even. Our air Defense Systems not on this 100 but. Punster and others including a tronic war fare mechanisms aimed at repairing drone attacks proved to be quite successful so we have already tested technology and this is quite Good Opportunity to market them ok well lets at least military and this program and marketing show. I heard some people seriously question the both the saudi. The who narrative of this attack because the who do rebels almost immediately claimed responsibility and there is speculation that it was a long range Cruise Missile the rob of the drones i mean we would never actually said this point we dont know for sure but do you think saudi arabia may have any benefits in trying to misrepresent the nature or the means of this attack. Well i think the 1st the very 1st reaction of saudi arabia is very indicative that they didnt act in aligned with the United States and didnt immediately put the blame on iran but what they did they claim that they were would collect the gather its National Experts with the reps of the u. N. Nations to have a thorough investigation and actually thats what also put in the cold the prince with whom he had a talk just a couple of hours ago to have this. Comprehensive investigation so i think saudi arabia understands ole possible risks especially dragging into another war not being sure the United States will back or even lead this war so i think they will continue this cautious. Behavior and wont try to escalate speaking about being dragged into a major war to me personally this attack looks a little bit like 911 not in terms of the human loss but in terms of the simplicity with beach it was perpetrated identifying a weak link and heating where it hurts the most do you see any symbolism here going after the saudis most iconic asset by the use of air power whatever it was i mean at a very least it exposed saudi arabia as a paper target a country that spends so much in security and that cannot protect its major facility look i dont think that anyone took seriously saudi arabia. Truong militarily i mean i dont know much feel as they have how much are they so bad on this it does it does you know that it doesnt matter and look at the last 23 years and the saudi adventure in yemen so they initiated the war with. Way under armed under trained less professional yemenis and well but we had similar episodes next in history im. And the soviet union was also very strong militarily but it wasnt very successful in the waging. War fare in afghanistan so i mean that you cannot put only on saudi arabia but when it comes to them spending so much resources on protecting themselves and being absolutely defenseless against what is said to be a drone well again the its. A curse in the blessing to be us partner so its all about the United States now another. Yes and no but its important factor because actually old were i mean just the powers who are United States partners dont invest. A part of the military heavily in their training or in the thing theyve been havent been involved in any military serious much riff for for decades that attack on the Saudi Oil Infrastructure comes on the heels of the still mysterious attacks on oil tankers in the sea of amman and i say mysterious because the general public is still being kept in the dark about the identity of the perpetrators but i cannot believe for a 2nd that intelligence agencies beat off russia iran israel france or the United States for that matter dont know who stands behind it why do you thing theres so Little Information about those attacks still i mean months later well i think its probably because the entire region is kind of a ticking bomb and you dont want to exist tensions in escalations by throwing you know mrs courtenay to. Results of investigation or even without investigation which could escalate. The situation so i would argue that everyone understands the importance do you think they know of what happened then who did it. I dont know for sure but yeah i mean i cant exclude this probably the know but its not about what you know but how you deal with the information which you have whether you. Can unveil it or is it profitable and what consequence is an outcomes will it to now we mentioned the yemeni conflict before and in addition to cracking jokes marketing the sales of russian weaponry whatever. You know how and where you put it russian president also side the quran in ankara to called the parties in the yemeni conflict to peace or as you say that twice to turn animes into brothers is moscow looking into. Getting more involved in the yemeni mediation i think it follows up with. It was in line with russias general policy of marketing itself as a broker in the region so just using yemen as a stark example because its connected with the recent attack on Oil Facilities in saudi arabia and thats being one of the major reasons as also rouhani said that that was actually the logical response from yemeni people because theyve been on their catastrophic. Siege and bombardment for 4 years now and. Put in try i think. Position our country which has the. Big mosque the minority also to position itself on as procure the book which understands not only your job Political Security concerns but also culturally even religiously and i think that also plays into putting his hand as a super professional to promote negotiator is that clever and. Now as you said before put in a schedule to visit saudi arabia and the United Arab Emirates next month and on the eve of that visit moscow has been playing up its what it calls the Gulf Security Initiative which i think runs in contrast to what the United States is offering there talking about multilateralism instead of the arab nato less weaponization of the region the Russian ForeignAffairs Ministry even called for a quote holistic mechanism to collective security i think this is the 1st time i see them using the word holistic. Is that just the p. R. Exercise for russia or is there indeed a chance of practical chance of some of those initiatives to be put into practice in the 1st place this initiative has been you know. In the works for for the case and then just another iteration of russias proposal for these concept Security Council for if they just russia as you know selfish marketing or does it actually believe that Something Like this could be implemented at this point of time with the region as a day its not about what you believe in its just about you know what diplomacy is about its the art of possibility so you keep trying trying trying in every possible moment and no one knows if you know around the corner youre another attempt will. Succeed so and now its the perfect time especially after this attacks in saudi Oil Facilities to again to push and act by the diplomatic push for this concept or at least spark another wave of talks or negotiations within the region between the countries so i dont think its just p. R. Its i mean its both anyways well its p. R. With some stuff like yeah yeah well actually we have to leave it there but its as always its a pleasure talking to you thank you very much for being here.
