This is aljazeera. Hello im adrian for the good in this is that he is live from doha coming up in the next sixty minutes as but dread moves to take control of catalonia as government local officials harden their positions. After a decisive election victory japans Prime Minister says that hell take a stronger stance against threats from north korea. We cannot force talks in bonn people are not ready to call a stalemate in the gulf high level meetings on the diplomatic rift with appear to go nowhere. And im sorry small have all the latest sports news including one with appleton is on the verge of a fourth formula one world title after victory in the United States. So we begin this news in catalonia leaders theyre exploring their options after spains government said that it would move to withdraw the regions autonomy the cattle and parliament is meeting in barcelona to consider its response to the spanish cabinet invoking article one five five of the countrys constitution the Central Government has also said that it could appoint a single representative to govern the region lets take you live now to barcelona al jazeera is the tasha but is there so the tasha can we expect a form of response from the Catalan Parliament soon. Well the executive board of the castle and parliament where im standing right now have been meeting today now what they say is that on thursday they will hold a full session of parliament and it will be in that session that m. P. C. Will decide exactly what will be their response to madrids decision to impose direct rule on the region now weve heard over the past few days from various regional leaders him including the regional president colors purge them all who have said to the majority decision to impose our will is outrageous please them all talking about slamming the door. Dialogue Going Forward what weve also seen is hundreds of thousands of procession supporters on the streets very angry they want their voice to be heard as well but on the other side you have madrid saying look it simply needs to take control of the situation at least to take back control of this region and that this is a situation that can all go to war and we heard from spanish Officials Say no all the nation in europe would allow such a thing to happen it would allow a region just to break away off the holding an illegal referendum and that is why they are forging ahead wanting to impose direct rule there will be a meeting of the Spanish Senate to approve that decision on friday and is expected to go ahead so how easy or perhaps difficult would it be for madrid to impose direct role. I think there is no doubt that it will be very difficult indeed and everyone is aware of the cattle and foreign minister here in the region said himself earlier that some people here will simply not want to take orders from madrid and youre talking about madrid wanting to take over the Civil Service the police force possibly even a Regional Television station dissolve parliament sack ministers now at every single level you are going to have processions supporters who say that they dont want to take orders from the dreaded they will show their opposition so its not going to be easy at all on the other hand you have many people in the region look with some relief that madrid is actually taking this decision because they want madrid to take back control they want order to be restored because theres a real feeling here as well but the longer this crisis goes on the more damage it will do both economically and politically politically to the region and to spain at large. Many thanks indeed attention back to their lives in barcelona japans Prime Minister shinzo abbay says that hell continue to deal decisively with north korea following his election when his Ruling Coalition scored a major victory in the poll the liberal Democratic Party and the come a two party won more than two thirds of seats in the lower house of a says he wants to hold talks on north korea with us President Donald Trump will visit japan next month sarah clarke reports from tokyo. He called on voters during the campaign to choose him because it was a size diable experience government and today he renewed that pledge to seek and strengthen diplomacy to deal with north korea and the escalating tensions in this region you also said that he would strengthen japans cooperation with the International Community donald trump is visiting japan next month. I have spoken to donald trump today obviously to congratulate him on the election victory but theyve also both agreed that on this visit to japan the tramp and our by world make this issue central to this their policy discussion so north korea has played a huge part in the Election Campaign and will no doubt continue to be a central policy platform for shinzo our by as he returns to power with what weve discussed is that the two thirds majority in parliament where everyone was waiting to see if they were able to secure the two thirds majority and this does deliver. And his ruling bloc the opportunity or the mandate or the visitation to move and make constitutional change they needed that two thirds majority to take that step hes made it his Lifelong Mission to try and revive as japans pacifist constitution in particular he would allow to he wants to move and make japans selfDefense Force a more active military the u. S. Drafted the constitution and basically made the Defense Force here a selfDefense Force it cant act on direct threats are has long said that he would like to change this. Iraqs government is accusing the u. S. Secretary of state of interference after he called for iranian backed fighters to leave iraq Rex Tillerson says of the fighters should either return to their homes or integrate into the iraqi army he made the comments in riyadh during landmark talks with saudi arabias king solomon and iraqs Prime Minister the body the u. S. Hopes that the partnership between the two countries will stop iraqs dependence upon iran will tell us an east his trip to riyadh and lazy to doha to push for talks on the gulf diplomatic crisis saudi arabia the u. A. E. Bahrain and egypt broke off relations with cattle in june petty culhane reports. He talked tough on his way over blaming the saudi Like Coalition for the impasse but in the region the tough talk stopped meetings with the crown Prince Mohammed bin samana asked him to please and gauge the police and gauge in dialogue. There is not a strong indication that parties are ready to talk yet. And so we cannot force talks on people who are not ready to talk still us secretary of state Rex Tillerson took great pains to compliment the qatari significant progress has been made in a number of important efforts in our counterterrorism joint efforts including sharing of terrorist list terrorist financing weve participated in a number of counterterrorism technical sessions and training and significant steps have been taken to enhanced aviation security. He didnt criticize the blockading countries not even after the saudis seemed to publicly slight him by sending the deputy minister of protocol to the airport for his part that qatar foreign minister is clearly frustrated by the behavior of the four blockading countries assess them i also feel sorry to say that they are not ready to face this issue and to tackle with dialogue the reasons for this crisis these countries have resorted to undergo a magic methods that have nothing to do with modern diplomatic channels and this is no good secretary tell us and isnt leaving the region and he is expected to do one more press conference this time on his own here in doha so that means he has one more chance however unlikely to try and put some public pressure on the blockading countries to try to resolve this crisis as it begins to enter its fifth month. Aljazeera doh. Lets get a few now from sultan barak out who is the director of the center of a conflict and humanitarian studies of the Doha Institute hes with me here in the studio what you make of this i mean Rex Tillerson leaving with with very little show for his time as far as the gulf diplomatic crisis is concerned in both riyadh. He says if they dont talk but i want to talk well to be fair to him ever since friday part of our wider visit to asia and the refocus in saudi arabia is about the Cooperation Council the cooperation between saudi arabia and iraq so that is really the main purpose of his visit saudi arabia so this was a diplomatic fishing trip if you like to see if you could if you can get the wheels turning trying and they must be trying all the time to call those parties into some kind of talks and few weeks ago when the they got the closest when the phone call between them. And man took place and that unfortunately ended up into a fiasco as to who said what to whom and it showed that really pride is at the heart of this conflict the issue here and the skill is in trying to get these two people two sides to. Change their position without losing face and this is maybe what terrorism is now working on this no doubt about the fact that the trumpet ministration is extremely frustration with the situation here in the gulf where the trauma demonstration as you know is divided on days over the gavins getting narrower between the white house and the Foreign Office the Foreign Office and the ministry of defense have been clear from the very beginning as to the need for talks and they really came out more or less on the side of the qatari in this this exercise but the white house has a different position. We are five months into this and i think they started to appreciate more the losses for the United States particularly on the commercial deals the trade they cannot make losses that. Happening as a result of this division what do you make of the way in which Rex Tillerson was treated when he arrived in saudi arabia met by the the deputy minister of from the department of protocol its sort of his his saudi counterpart was that was that a snub or we are we reading too much into into what happened. I dont know the details but i mean i wouldnt be. In his position be offended i mean it depends on whether protocol the agreed the beginning and you know terrorism is very comfortable in saudi arabia and elsewhere in the gulf. I dont think its a big issue all right so how long how long does the gulf crisis go on without a breakthrough i mean how long is this stalemate going to be talking months weeks or even years i mean the the time weve seen so far has proven that terrorism is rather resilient. Shock that. Saudi arabia and egypt had hoped for is not there anymore so the longer it goes the more resilient could become and more used to work without them which i think is rather dangerous move because ultimately they will have to turn to two other allies in the region and they would have to go for tentative routes particularly relation to heavy equipment and Construction Material to do with a twenty twenty two so it can go on for a long time the longer it goes the harder it is going to be to bring them back together and certainly the harder it is going to be to keep the council the gulf Council Together what is the next gulf Cooperation Council meeting actually go ahead or to go ahead without without what we read and i dont think so i think the fact that it was postponed it is meant to allow it to come in at some stage if its possible and again then clearly it probably is the end of it ok always good to talk to you many thanks to you for being with us. The u. S. And British Military say that theyre committed to staying at the date abbes in qatar the facility has proved crucial in the fight against eisel its strategic location makes it vital for missions in the middle east and asia behold reports from a little date this is the heart of americas military power in the middle east. Hosts everything from b. Fifty two was fighter jets and a few linkers trouts but in order for these bombers to reach their targets theyd acquire an air base like and or date which is close enough to many areas in the middle east and asia with the ability to provide Logistical Support or a date is part of the american Central Command authority over the sponsibility this area extends from kazakhstan india north to yemen in the south and from pakistan in the east to egypt in the west if you look at centcom on a map. Qatar falls roughly in the center of that now and so the capabilities here laois to reach out on order to any corner of the second region out of value did we strike or we fly aircraft across a range of capability so tankers airlift their medical back Surveillance Reconnaissance and strike aircraft so all those things are layered together through the orders of the combined air Operations Center to have those facts on target and the persistence to be able to go after isis on demand when the targets arise u. S. Forces do not walk alone in a later date they are in a coalition of more than twenty countries one of them is the united kingdom. The erb ace has sophisticated systems and Equipment Installed to meet everyones requirement it will be difficult to replicate just the complexity and sophistication of what we all have here at our leader because of investment over time the investment in money the investment in people almost a thousand people work in the air Operations Center twenty four hours a day on shift so you cant just as we would say in u. K. Up sticks and then go in relocated somewhere else easily its important in the investment that all of us americans u. K. Coalition friends have put into the air operations and put into a new date tells you how important it is and were here for the long haul. Date has plenty of space for big bombers something that is not available in many cases in the region and the bases location was a factor in the decision to bring these bombers here. Is considered a safe place for big bombers like the b. Fifty two which operates from these bombers provide air power to the region. Still to come on the program. The philippines declares its battle with ice linked fighters over. Accusations in israels media that the countrys weapons sales are helping to provoke conflict in other parts of the world.

This is legalized in march a place which has suffered violent conflict for decades why he didnt talk and his men are taking us to a New Territory they recently took over from pro isis groups. We dont want what happened to happen here. But it takes more than just the m. I. L. F.

I. L. F.
