Turkeys president has described the u. S. To. To suspend most Visa Services for turkish citizens as setting the visa freeze was in response to an american consulate employee being arrested in istanbul accused of links to last years failed coup in turkey and immediately suspended its own Visa Services in the us and is reported so issued a warrant to question a second u. S. Consulate worker the u. S. Ambassador to turkey says how long the visa suspension last will depend on talks between the two governments medical reports from washington d. C. After the arrest of a worker at the u. S. Embassy in ankara and a warrant issued for another the u. S. Took the unusual step of saying they would stop issuing visas for turkish nationals traveling to america turkey quickly followed suit with similar measures but president richard. He did it reluctantly and this is a very sad decision. The embassador has taken a decision and started implementing it so its a source of sadness. This is just the latest in a growing list of diplomatic back and forth the relationship between these two nato allies started souring during the Syrian Civil War turkey upset the us didnt do enough against the Assad Government even angrier when the u. S. Backed kurdish fighters and later armed them. Then last years coup attempt and it got worse blame to clerics between the golan who lives in the u. S. They wanted him extradited for his alleged role the Obama Administration refused and the Trump Administration hasnt moved on it either that was a big issue when he first met President Donald Trump but that was overshadowed by what happened when he left the oval office. Turkish Security Officers violently attacked what appeared to be Peaceful Protesters outside the turkish ambassadors residence fifteen of them were indicted in u. S. Courts and as a result the u. S. Stopped a planned sale of small arms to turkey turkey further angered the u. S. When it agreed to buy a Russian Missile Defense System equipment that wouldnt work with a nato has indicated he would be willing to trade americans imprisoned in turkey for golan but given that would be hard to do within the legal system something he really wants the case thrown out against her citizen reza zurab who is awaiting trial in the u. S. For allegedly helping turkey of aid sanctions against iran and it was a matter of wanting it back then wanting the case to go away it wanting him not to testify not wanting any of the details about their role in helping iran evade sanctions coming out in the course of a trial it will be yet another chance for the already frosty relationship to cool even more political hang aljazeera washington. And is a techie risk specialist he says these disputes threaten to shift the course of the relationship between ankara and washington. Economically also in terms of turkeys security infrastructure its membership in nato its reliance on us the Nuclear Umbrella sort of speak all of these are factors that entrenched the two countries into this alliance however as we see more and more often these various parts occurring these disagreements these. Sentimental crevices emerging between the two countries that will contribute to a longer term shift of turkey away from the United States. And we will see probably the country seek to rekindle its ties with various other alternatives we have definitely seen president add one voice such intentions but again this is not something turkey can do overnight and any speculation about turkey having now become a russian ally as opposed to its alliance with the us these are exaggerated these things take much longer time and then than that iran is promising a crushing response if the u. S. Designates its elite revolutionary guard as a terrorist scrape the page was made a week before President Donald Trump is expected to announce his rejection of the irani clear deal once that happens the u. S. Congress can then decide whether to reimpose sanctions a possibility that iran says its taking very seriously its a must ravi has this update from tehran. In the last few days the headlines here have been dominated by defiant rhetoric from iranian leaders who say that any actions by the United States to impose new sanctions or to abandon the two thousand and fifteen nuclear deal will be met with a strong response at a News Conference Irans Foreign Ministry spokesman. Has said that it would be a strategic mistake for the white house to place the countrys revolutionary guard corps on a list of terror organizations and that he hoped for a more rational response from the u. S. President the language in recent days from the revolutionary guard itself has been much stronger the chief commander has said that if the United States was to take such an action then its bases in the region would be considered strategic targets and that its troops in the region would be given the same status in the eyes of the Iranian Forces as isis fighters and even as countries who helped negotiate the nuclear dealers the United States not to take any actions to abandon it iran wants people to know that it will meet any new challenges from a position of strength its posturing on both sides that is putting the Obama Administrations hard won nuclear deal in jeopardy. An influential republican politician in the u. S. Says President Trump is treating the office like a reality show and could set the nation on the path to world war senator bob corker the chairman of the Foreign Relations committee made his comments in a nice paper interview after fights on twitter with the president caucus says hes alarmed and concerned by actions in the oval office from washington alan fischer reports i personally have no bob corker has a reputation as a reliable republican which makes his attack on the president even more remarkable in an interview with the New York Times he accused donald trump of treating the office of president like a reality show but he warned his reckless threats on twitter could set the u. S. On the path to World War Three such is the risk says the chairman of the senate Foreign Relations committee but he says i know for a fact that every single day at the white house its a situation of trying to contain him its not the first time bob corker has spoken out against the president after announcing last week he wasnt going to run for the senate again he felt bold enough to say this i think. Sect a teller a certain sector a mattress and. Chief of staff kelly. Are. Those people that help separate our country from chaos that can do it seems to upset President Trump he took to twitter to claim that corker begged him to back you merely senate race but he refused that he asked to be secretary of state and was rejected and then you know expected corker to be a negative voice corker decided not to let that pass remember this is an open exchange from two Senior Republicans he responded its a shame the white house has become an Adult Daycare Center someone obviously missed their shift this morning he then followed up with the interview with the New York Times hoping and that more senators will really i go to her program has said and really perhaps put some pressure on the white house to tighten their act and really let some control on this president corker is said to be close to secretary of state Rex Tillerson who held a News Conference last week to reaffirm his support for the president after it was claimed he called mr trump a moron let me tell you what ive learned about this president whom i did not know before taking this office he loves this country he puts americans and America First the smart center court he still has more than a year of his final senate term to run and could cause issues for the president and his agenda if his feud with the white house continues and if other senators actually break ranks and express the concerns senator corker insists they also have alan fischer ill just you know washington lets talk more about this with Brad Blakeman hes a republican strategist and a former adviser to president george w. Bush as you can see he joins us from washington thanks for being with us on the program just how damaging do you think these comments are by senator corker. I dont think theyre damaging at all to the president but its unfortunate because i think it gives fodder to the enemies of america beyond our borders but senator corker i think is a little upset because its clear he cannot win reelection thats why hes taken himself out of the race for reelection so i think hes a little bit peeved by that upset by it and hes taking it out on the president and it is unfortunate but its a its a fight of diminishing returns for him because donald trump will be president long after senator corker is gone what do you say that and i know that the senate on the president disputes about whether or not he was running again but sensical cole says that his concerns a shed by needy every Senate Republican if that is true might they now not be emboldened to come forward and say similar things about the president i dont think so because its not true and number one number two is they rise and fall with the president next year a third of the senate is up for reelection and the American People are not voting for donald trump theyre voting for the entire lower house of representatives and a third of the senate so theyre going to have to stand on their own record so i think they rise and fall with the president the republicans they have a majority and wishing the president ill is not going to help their efforts to remain in power does they have a right there to criticize the president to he fails that the president is actually leading the American People into another world war as he puts it he clearly believes that this president is reckless ill informed impulsive unfit for command the various other people in high circles in washington whove echoed those. I have not heard those sentiments ive worked in washington for three president s i live here i work here and i dont i dont hear that i dont think it systemically i think its isolated but again these people if you looked at past their comments they every one of them seems to have an ax to grind in some way against the president theyre not getting their way and so they theyre acting out against him but leading us to war i think its been the last eight years the abomb ministration who brought us the disastrous iranian deal and brought us strategic patience with north korea if anything it was obama who set us on a path to war not a president whos been in office less than a year but a president who says things like rocket and we will have no choice but to destroy north korea very provocative and i asked do you appraise personally off the way the president tweets and the way he behaves in public some i do it in some i wish he would hold his father but. I think donald trump certainly i think everyone can agree is a president like weve never saw before and thats a comfort and its also confusion. To try and figure him out but at the end of the day you know when he went after nato. What did nato do they started to pony up more money and be more responsible so this carrot and stick are good cop bad cop. Way of the president doing business i think can can be very positive and it also keeps our enemies off guard which i think again is is something that should have been done long ago in america Brad Blakeman great to have you with us and your thoughts on this story appreciate it thanks so much thank you thank you. And coming up on this aljazeera news hour the red cross cuts its operations in afghanistan after a series of attacks on its.

At least twelve people have drowned boat carrying refugees from the desk capsized ten of those who died with children it is the third such accident since people started fleeing violence in mammals the kind states in august or the sixty people drowned when two boats capsized. On g. M. Has more from coxs bizarre in bangladesh. With news that yet another boat full of refugees capsized while it was attempting to cross from me and more to bangladesh comes another reminder of the magnitude of this refugee crisis and the fact that were going to refugees are still trying to flee and come into bangladesh this area you see behind me these people that are here they all crossed by foot into bangladesh just earlier today weve heard horrific tales from them about what happened to them was a woman over there who told us that her husband was executed in the past week by me and large military theres a young boy over here showed us a wound on his leg said he got out when me and my army shot at the group that he was with very sad stories more reminders that this exodus doesnt seem as though it will in anytime soon thats one reason why aid groups humanitarian organizations are so concerned about the plight of these people. And a newly released video by the u. K. s Disasters Emergency Committee shows the huge scale of the range of crisis large numbers of refugees have been forced to settle in the bayou kali refugee camp thats just one of several in bangladesh around five hundred fifty thousand written just arrived in the country from the amar fleeing the militarys brutal crackdown in Rakhine State theres a National Committee of the red cross is reducing its operations in afghanistan Seven Members of its staff have been killed there this year six died in an attack on an aid convoy in february and last month the physiotherapists was shot dead by one of her patients another four workers have been abducted well earlier we spoke to the head of the i. C. R. C. Monicas on a rally she says the decision had to be taken having lost seven precious colleagues and having had three kidnapped. Its clearly something we had not experienced in such a short period of time.

But im not used to seeing so many bodies will not change yet and now theyre here now we have them on our doorstep and feeling under siege. These police guys the have really hit us hard and its i think its very bad here at the moment a spokesman for the squadron catalonians police force said it had no choice but to accept the Supreme Court ruling. You know. We dont understand it at all we have been guarding the spear court of catalonia for the last twenty four years and theres never been any reaction to our service so we dont understand it and we dont like it but it is a judicial destruction so we accepted. The extremely unusual you might call it provocative site of spains National Police on guard outside this important building in central barcelona is a reminder of just what sensitive times these are as this region and the whole of spain await a possible unilateral declaration of independence by catalonia on monday madrid again made it clear that an independence declaration would have immediate consequences not at.
