We have opened up a space in our region with operation euphrates shields and now we are making efforts to take a step forward by maintaining security in a lab today there is a serious operation in adlib and it will continue because we have our brothers there who came to fleeing violence in aleppo we cant tell them whatever happens happens you can either die or survive we have to extend our hands to our brothers now this step has been taken and it is under way the Turkish Military is building up at the border was the region was labeled a deescalation zone last month after an agreement between Turkey Russia and iran but fighting has continued there the deal is not recognized by a coalition of armed groups who control large parts of the provinces one of the few crossing that remain open on the turkish Syrian Border which is a security concern for cora bordering adlib to the north is an area controlled by Kurdish Forces turkey considers the y p g an extension of the Kurdistan Workers Party or p k k which is a terrorist group well tell her course is a professor of Political Science at Sahara University in istanbul and he believes the Turkish Military will try to stay out of ad lib. I think turkish will tortillas. Will try to support their local actors including to Free Syrian Army and the Turkish Military will be coordinating to their efforts in the first place in the second phase of operation so if they are faced with some resistance if some of the rebel groups are trying to attack down they will get more in world but this will and the other thing is that there may be some tensions in the areas that are. Controlled in the afan area so if there are some tensions in that area as well if the rebels are. Escaping to other places i think Turkish Military will be in want but i think in the earlier period the Turkish Military will try to stay less you more.

One hundred forty one which it wasnt the last. Time i think we seek out anything when i have to ask how i can now i am a. Father i have a headache you got the money respected meaning the next ten days i wont ninety thousand feet looking for a way out of this crisis three. They wouldnt have voted many of the people in the room would cost something many prohibiting supporters of other money to dish me havent come out and voted in these referendums in the question of independence because im only have to take over the silent majority vote and they may indeed be a majority nobody really knows the polls before the referendum so that only forty percent of people would be in favor of seceding from spain will these people are certainly concerned about the way things are going theyre worried about what next week may bring a possible you know actual declaration of independence from the regional president carlos we just a moment when he addresses parliament on tuesday they want to put a stop to the lot a little while ago i spoke to the foreign minister of catalonia the head of Regional Foreign Affairs raul role in a role maybe. And i asked him what he thought was likely to happen next week is what he had to say. The people of the will of the people needs to be respected for a single reason there is no alternative to this we tried for years to enter into negotiations with the state no once youre in the positive manner repression was the only answer and despite this the people went to vote freely the market and peacefully and that is what the parliament of catalonia needs to acknowledge we have two projects here one is democracy the other one is repression or violence which one the people. What is pretty clear that the people in this square choose the unity of space very worried about the spiraling tension the violence that we see on the streets last sunday they dont want to see any more of that i asked mr roemer over what his message was to pro unity supporters here in qatar and he said look we welcome all views we welcome all forms of protest all opinions should be listened to when its pretty clear from this crowd that whatever does happen next week will please some people but certainly not all here in catalonia all right john thank you very much for that for now that stronghold joining us live from barcelona thank you. Now opponents of russias president Vladimir Putin are holding antigovernment protests to mark his birthday Opposition Leader alexina volley was jailed last week for organizing banned Public Meetings put in a servant has third term as president has made russia a key player in World Politics particularly the war in syria his party promotes him as a tough no nonsense leader who is physically active despite turning sixty five on saturday lets go to our correspondent roy challenge now hes joining us live from moscow are people answering volleys call to protest rory. Well people are starting to gather now in pushkin square in the center of moscow but its still quite a small crowd after say the demonstration officially started a few minutes ago but at the moment they seem to be as many journalists here as there are official demonstrators the Police Presence is fairly minimal as well there are a couple of officers Walking Around with loudspeakers telling people to disperse that they should be gathering here blocking the sidewalk six cetera i think its going to be interesting to see how many people are in a valley is called today to come out onto the streets because the cold in a valley and his headquarters of put out is a much more personal call this time than in previous demonstrations this year in the summer and in march people were very very keen to come out and demonstrate against corruption in russia but this time novelli is saying come out on to the streets demonstrate for me to be released from police to tension demonstrate for me to be allowed to campaign properly and demonstrate for me to be allowed to participate in next years president ial elections so well have to see how many people are willing to come out and answer that call i would also have to see what the Police Response is going to be it is rather me a putins birthday today that might affect things it does give this demonstration day maybe a bit of a feeling of a drug match between two political adversaries perhaps the police are not going to be wanting to make as many arrests on friday putins birthday as they were willing to make on previous demonstrations were in a volley has been trying to chip away at hiltons popularity especially outside of the main cities has he been successful. Well thats the big question its certainly been what he has tried to do over the last few months hes been very very busy moving from city to city setting up Regional Headquarters in places like. Novosibirsk these kind of cities outside smaller cities outside the two Great Centers of moscow and St Petersburg in moscow and St Petersburg that is where and see government feeling runs highest but in smaller cities in the regions theyre much more conservative places to meet in supports tends to be higher outside of moscow and St Petersburg so the valley has been targeting these places trying to build up a support base there and certainly on previous demonstration days the notable thing has been how many people have turned out in in those regional parts of the country it has surprised many observers the opposition feeling seems to be picking up in those places whether he can keep that momentum going over the next few months well have to see and well certainly be watching what happens in the months leading up to the president ial election which is seems to be in march two thousand and eighteen. Putin hasnt declared his that he is going to be standing there but people assume that he will and people assume that hes probably going to win that fairly easily all right thank you very much for that thats royal palace joining us live from moscow thank you now the u.
