Smersh ata is associate professor of middle east studies at the university of oklahoma in the u. S. He is concerned the region is reaching a Tipping Point i think it is an escalation and of course there has been as you know tense times recently between iran and saudi arabia as part of a kind of regional rivalry and competition for influence and the rhetoric from riyadh actually has been increasing i would hope that this is only an increase in rhetoric because of course the region is a potentially at a precipice and i think any more fighting or violence and so on would make the situation dramatic worse for lebanon on forsyte eurabia for other parties in the region and even the egyptian president who is not known for his restraint is actually cautioned sort of these to show restraint at the present moment coates americas calling for unity and a letter addressed to the countrys parliament i thought was the resignation of the government last week a government collapsed after the National Assembly proposed holding a vote of no confidence against him ministers and his letter the emir emphasized the need for kuwait stability and security. The moment we are fully aware of the threats around us and we are fully aware of our geographic location and the dangerous situation in the region i am sure that the kuwaiti people are aware and fully supportive of our Political Leadership backing our security agencies and value the National Unity with russia has rejected the findings of the un and curry into a chemical attack in syria and april when investigators concluded the Syrian Government was responsible for the use of sarin gas in the rebel held town of concha koen more than eighty people there died a third of them children they examine the movements of aircraft the bomb crater and samples of the serin gas. In your report you included a finding that regarding the responsibility of the Syrian Arab Republic you have not determine who is responsible and not within the government or its various departments or ministers but at the same time the character in the logistics of the operation might have involved a whole range of players from various areas i mean what do you kind of is this evidence and then what you wrote is is that its the Syrian Arab Republic that is responsible an entire state the entire state is found responsible. As attacks on aid workers and conflict zones increase. To do their job organizations like the International Red cross and red crescent say in syria and elsewhere. As a weapon of war some of the more from the turkish city of antalya were workers from one hundred ninety countries are trying to find solutions to the challenges theyre facing. When people from conflict zones need to be taken to safety these workers and volunteers to get the job done. This footage was shot by mohammed for an aid worker whos been volunteering since high school a day in his job in syria means to go shooting with government representatives and on groups and helping get the wounded to safety. But he says hes understood more about the chaos of war and the importance of being there in moments like this child is pointing to what appears to be a russian drone just hours after his whole family had been killed in an airstrike that came from that he thought that it was just a toy or something to get the answer turns us what seems to be a noble task is not risk free more than one hundred humanitarian workers have been killed this year in conflicts worldwide syria has been a high risk area for more than six years in the waters and over the government and groups have abused access to humanitarian aid. Limited access to you limit the foods you limited medicine. Needs and. This is what his. Access is used as a people and thats one reason why fifteen hundred eight workers from around the world are in turkey delegates gathered here from hunger games to try and figure out the best ways to tackle the challenges that humanitarian workers face and how best to humanitarian work in possibilities for the legal threats in the face not just from state but nonstate actors from across the. It will. Without safety there is the constant risk of being manipulated by the different sides in the conflict its heart question that you are asking but it is also a question which is more than one hundred fifty years old when the i. C. R. C. Was founded this was exactly the debate in the Nineteenth Century the criticism that we would create an organization which would probably war instead of abolishing war and i think today we are more weary in the situations that you described that we cant escape the humanitarian imperative of helping people survive in the most difficult circumstances.

Spain has carried out a coup detat against the legitimate government our colleagues who are now in prison have been subject to mao treatment by the spanish authorities and spain must now respond to international justice. Changed to reflect how much and how fast things have changed for the Independence Movement probably independence is going to have a secondary role i mean this doesnt mean that people are going to forget what happened the last month but at the same time in the minds of the politicians i know so that. We are starting to think about this process as something that you need more time you know that to make the underpinnings of the new country. New country now under the thumb of Central Government the independent republic that proclaimed less than three weeks ago has been the most urgent task now lifting direct rule by madrid restoring come to learn is autonomy before deciding what to do next much will depend on the far left coupe Party Supporters of independents and previously kingmakers in parliament who may yet decide to boycott all disrupt decembers election but here too the tone has changed. Are people aware that this is very difficult right now yes but people are also aware that the way to achieve.
