In terms of some of the abuse of them violence and that have been perpetrated by the former the jim but at the same time i think you do need some kind of discipline to compromise.

Appreciate your time thanks very much indeed for talking to. Coming thank you. 10 passengers from the u. N. Security council have delivered a diplomatic petition to the secretary general on syria they want to turn it to terrorist to set up an inquiry into the bombing of hospitals in italy on temperament and its space joins us with more and james tell us a little more about what this is all about. This is called a demarche it is a diplomatic petition that is delivered in person and in this case in person to the u. N. Secretary general it followed a meeting of the Security Council where again the Security Council since things have intensified in it since april has heard that things are still continuing to get worse the 7th Security Council meeting in that period of time the uns humanitarian coordinator mark lowcock told the Security Council that they need to look at themselves and they should take action i have to say that those that carried out the demarche 2 thirds of the Security Council 10 ambassadors believe the un secretary general himself and mr local who was present at this meeting need to do more they believe its possible for the u. N. To set up an inquiry and discover who is bombing hospitals immediately after that demarche that meeting in the secretary of office i spoke to mr local you put the ball in the court of the Security Council but 10 members of that Security Council of now being to see the secretary general you were there at the meeting saying actually its you that should take action you should set up an inquiry into these bombings are you now going to set up such an inquiry well yes members of the council have been to see the secretary general area today and raised issues with him in the thank you general thinking about the request that was made and he will in due course decide how best to address the request. Watching this you may think that they are all passing the buck from one to the other its certainly worth saying though that the ambassadors that went to see the secretary general saying he needs to set up an inquiry and has the power in this the president do so are from 10 Council Members who have had that position for some time its worth noting the Council Members that didnt join this demarche they were the 3 african members china and most notably of course russia because when it comes to hospitals being bombed in syria theyre only are 2 countries that have the assets to do so the Syrian Regime and russia are james thanks very much james baker reporting there from the United Nations lets speak now to robert ford whos a senior fellow at the middle east institute in washington a former u. S. Ambassador to syria indeed and he joins me live via skype from maine this for the ambassador ford whats your feeling about this this inquiry is going to happen well the point of the inquiry is frankly to build pressure on russia and i would be surprised if the russians allowed the Security Council to vote in paper such an investigation i would expect the russians to use their veto right so therefore its all very well the u. N. Security Council Making statements here and there and making resolutions here and there but ultimately is that age old criticism ultimately its toothless. When there is disagreement among the permanent 5 members of the Security Council the ones with vetoes its very hard for the United Nations to take any strong action and russia has been using its veto to protect the asada government and Russian Forces from any kind of United Nations condemnation that goes back to 2011 and the Security Council is really being very careful never to identify responsible nations isnt about time it just did it just pointed the finger and was was just direct. Well i certainly think so before it came on air i was checking some of the United Nations public statements about the bombing in airstrikes and it live over the last couple of months and there is a lot of passive tense in the United Nations condemnations theyre not factually wrong they just dont point out whos conducting the airstrikes or who is conducting the artillery strikes it think therefore ready these ambassadors who went to see the secretary general of the day trying to get the United Nations to be more direct and to put the finger of blame on the perpetrators in this case russia and syria right so is that were all talking about this right now but ultimately busy the bottom line is that it will probably nothing is going to happen you know saying that probably wont be an inquiry so where do we stand that the International Community just stands back and watches this appalling tragedy unfold. As you say it is an appalling tragedy and i think the worst thing we could do now is to give the syrian civilians who are undergoing this horrible bombing to give them false hopes that somehow the International Community is going to rescue them the syrians themselves have to make decisions about what to do but at least they need to have a clear under. Standing at the limits of what the International Community is going to do a medley it is a failure of the International Community isnt it oh yes absolutely the way the system is designed course it goes back to 1945 with the Security Council but its designed to do nothing if one of the permanent 5 decides to block action the only thing really that could be considered then is is there a way to use some kind of principle of responsibility to protract and around the Security Council but the. Reality is of that are certainly subject to debate rather for a very important get your perspective on this we do appreciate your time thanks very much thank you. Or coming up on this news or where i live in the u. S. State of detroit so where the 2nd democratic president ial debates will soon get underway.

K. Cannot secure. Were not aiming for an ideal bet in which we dont think thats where well end up this is very much up to a prince of partners across the channel they know that 3 times the house of commons has thrown out that backstop theres no way that we can get it through if they cant compromise if they really cant do it then clearly we have to get ready for an ideal exit and i think well will do i think that the people of this country are full of resolve and purpose and we will look after the farming sector i mean while the british pound has fallen to its lowest level against the us dollar in more than 2 years its also dropped to a 7 month low against the Euro Currency has been falling since price johnson became Prime Minister last week economists warn it could weaken further as the likelihood of a new deal breaks it increases general has been following developments from central london. To an extent i think the u. K. Will have grown used to a fluctuating pound in the 3 years and a bit since the break that referendum in 2016 ebbing and flowing with the fortunes of brakes at the concern from a currency point of view now will be how far the pound may yet have to fall and how quickly with some analysts suggesting it could go to parity with the euro even conceivably parity with the dollar in the run up to this october 31st deadline and the hard breaks it no deal rhetoric of new Prime Minister Boris Johnson who has set the bar for a new deal with the e. U. So high he wants the Northern Ireland back stop removed altogether that the e. U. Is unlikely to concede and Boris Johnson says well if they dont change their minds it will be a no deal braggs it in wales talking to welsh farmers hes been warned of civil unrest among welsh farmers who face large tariffs being slapped on their lamb exports in the event of no deal will serve re which way Boris Johnson looks there are the potential negative consequences of no deal that hasnt done anything to change his very positive optimistic rhetoric on no deal or from ramming home the central message as he did in wales saying the ball is in the e. U. Hughes court if they dont concede no deal will be britains. And answer from the e. U. Came from earlier varadkar the irish tea shock in a scratchy apparently phone call saying the e. U. Is a unified in its position that they will be no renegotiation of to resume as Withdrawal Agreement no removal of the backstop. U. S.

The race is on for who will become the Us Democratic president ial candidate to challenge trump in elections that should the 2nd televised debate since you take place in detroit candidates will be trying to convince their own Party Members that the right person to run against old from 100 has. It is a battle for the future of the Democratic Party this weeks democratic president ial debates pits safely centrist candidates led by former Vice President joe biden against the partys revolutionaries Senators Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders i want to see somebody thats has more progressive ideas get the ticket so it doesnt fall back on to biden which to me would be a repeat of the Hillary Clinton so im kind of hoping that one of the other candidates whether its warren or bernie theyre vying for his spot at the top of the polls with calls for publicly funded Health Insurance Immigration Reform and higher taxes on the wealthy while the front runner always has a target painted on his or her back so he has to expect some are tax.
