One of the most powerful people in the white house has suddenly left his Job National Security advisor john bolton says he resigned but the president says he was fired over disagreements about Foreign Policy bolton was known as a hawk he wanted the u. S. To take a hard line stance against countries like iran venezuela and north korea his departure follows reports of. Serious divisions within Donald Trumps cabinet over his decision to invite the taliban to the u. S. The peace talks talks that would like to cancel the president says a new advisor his 4th in 2 and a half years but will be appointed next week mike hanna reports we think the sanctions are biting john bolton was the 3rd National Security adviser pointed to by President Trump since taking office and hes the 3rd to resign after much speculation of imminent firing bolton brought to the white house decades of experience in Foreign Policy and a hawkish disposition that had never wavered. He served as ambassador to the United Nations under george w. Bush from 2005 to 2006 and use that position to continue to justify the u. S. Invasion of iraq that he had relentlessly advocated a few years before madam president he returned to the un alongside President Trump as National Security adviser during the General Assembly session last year and once again made his presence felt weve imposed very stringent sanctions on iran more are coming. And what we expect from iran is massive changes in their behavior around here certain National Security control of the u. S. Mission at the u. N. Effectively downgrading the role played by Ambassador Nikki Haley who resigned within months of his appointment what many diplomats say is that its very hard to get clear decisions out of the u. S. Mission to anyone at present and that is a probably because bolton and other members of the administration are fighting over what policy lines to take for the secretary so. While the administration appeared united in its america 1st policy some differences began to emerge particularly with regard to north korea chairman kim asked for this meeting President Trump agreed with bolton adopted that take a toll leave it attitude to negotiations leading to north korean complaints that he was undermining the policy of dialogue advocated by both President Trump and secretary of state mike pompei or the Iranian Regime has systematically pursued a policy of hostility toward the United States then the apparent moment of real division as hed done in years past a National Security adviser began to press for active regime change in iran. Characterizing the shuttle deployment of a u. S. B. To the region as in his words a clear and unmistakable message to the Iranian Regime the said odds with the white house policy in which the focus was morning exerting economic pressure through sanctions. After weeks of discussion it was confirmed that additional troops would be sent to the region but numbering hundreds rather than the 10s of thousands had bunked and was believed to be pressing for President Trump denied there was friction within his cabinet i think a stake is ok now what i do that absolutely but we have not played for that hopefully will not get out the plan for that and if we did that would send a hell of a lot more troops and that the final straw perhaps a sardonic comment by a principal adviser to the iranian president who wrote in a tweet at real donald trump you want to the better deal with iran looks like youre going to get a war instead thats what happens when you listen to the mr bush good luck in 2020 john bolton is now on his way out his smith star intact his dream of regime change shattered mike hanna aljazeera washington. Our correspondent an official joins us live now from the white house to al a disagreement about whether or not he was fired but things had certainly been tense for a while. They have and john bolton is on his way out no matter how it transpired he says that he spoke to donald trump and offered his resignation on monday night after there was a Heated Exchange inside the oval office a boat afghanistan donald trump said to him lets think about it to morrow john bolton and says 1130 this morning he went in to hand in his resignation and 1158 donald trump tweeted out that he had been fired now this is pretty brutal by the white house standards donald trump normally sends a nice message saying thanks for your service hes done it in the past to people like Rex Tillerson and others who resign from his cabinet at the directors another one that comes to mind but this time it was his services are no longer required and john bolton for his part didnt respond with a thanks i was always delighted to be able to serve a president it was no i resigned so there is tension there but there have been difficulties to since the very start john bolton was an odd choice for donald trump donald trump is very nationalistic america fast thats his approach john bolton meanwhile is much more a hawk on military matters hes talked about regime change in iran and also in north korea he was dead set against the idea of the United States probably troops out of syria something that donald trump was very keen on and then it seems the breaking point was just in the last few days donald trump wanted to bring the taliban to camp david for peace talks john bolton dead set against that so no he is gone there could well be a change in some u. S. Policy the most obvious one came from a briefing in the white house just in the last couple of hours when my point here is the secular state and steve miniature whos the treasury secretary they gave a briefing that john bolton was. Also listed to be at his invite got lost in the post and the said is that a possibility that he could meet with the iranian president at the u. N. G. A. And he said yes that is a distinct possibility that could well happen so we could well see a change in some of the policy but as i see he was a very odd fit from the very beginning initially donald trump thought about john bolton as possibly being secretary of state but decided against it because he thought he didnt look the part and one of the things that counted against him was his big bushy mustache well he spent 18 months as the National Security advisor longer than many people thought but again hes found that his face doesnt fit and now of course trump has to find his 4th National Less security adviser in 2 and a half years i mean looking at it what qualities does that advisor need. To do with Donald Trump Tells them to do donald trump as we saw it just on monday when he was talking about his decision to set up peace talks with the taliban and then cancel them he asked whose advice did you take i took my own advice so really it boils down to the very basics of what the white house is always been about advisors advise president s the site and if the advice isnt what the president wants to hear thats not going to work for him no there are some republicans who see john bolton while i didnt agree with a lot of position its good to have that contrary invoiced in the room not entirely sure that thats something thats going to happen in the near future given that donald trump clearly doesnt like to hear voices that dont chime in with his own interestingly enough might pompey are always asked havent you had followed with john bolton and he said yes thats absolutely true there was a bit of a power struggle going on between those 2 white pompey is the guy that seems to have won and john bolton is no looking for a new job and in the white house thank you. All right so lets now speak to International Affairs analyst and principal of aussie communications calvin doc as you can see he also joins us live from washington d. C. Good to have you with us on the program as an official was pointing out that bolton was always a strange choice wasnt he the trump we know that bolton is hawkish especially when it comes to Foreign Policy you know of course that donald trump was doing his best to extricate people u. S. Troops from any sort of International Conflicts why was he appointed in the 1st place. Well i think part of the reason was donald trump has made it very clear that one of the things he thinks is a mark of success is how youre able to come across on television now john bolton is not liked by a lot of people and i think thats probably what john bolton would say is one of his biggest accomplishments but he was definitely outspoken on conservative media and i think that donald trump thought if he brought him in he would be able to help trump carry out his Foreign Policy objectives while carrying that same outspokenness and kind of i dont care what you think just watch what we do attitude problem is that the difference between john bolton and President Trump john bolton has a strategy like it or not i dont think donald trump is demonstrated that he has an actual strategy for Foreign Policy so naturally thats going to conflict with john bolton interestingly earlier the white house said there will be no change in Foreign Policy but we you know we know that that has been a little bit less aggressive in the last couple of weeks i think they see more of that coming through recently seen the rhetoric about iran as being slightly time downeys talked about being open to talks with iran without preconditions presumably they are all things that set bolton would have been totally opposed to. Well i think we have to be careful to not read too much into that yes it is true that with bolton out of the white house in that kind of discussion of options those hawk his options are not going to be pushed as strongly as bolton would have done if he was there but i think we need to remember from President Trumps point of view be whats going on with north korea iran russia hes thinking about 2020 and he wants to do will ever position him in a place of strength and a place of winning and i think that thats going to be the dictator of what trumps Foreign Policy is not necessarily whos in a position because trump said hes all advisor anyway so hes not going to go by what someone sells someone else says anyway is the president going to have any problems now with john bolton as he points out at the start of the interview john bolton is good on television he likes appearing on television hes never afraid to put his point of view across so were going to hear from him shortly do you think oh yes the countdown has begun and i noticed with president tried on twitter with secretaries pompei oh and the new chin how they seem to be throwing john bolton under the bus and i remember thinking hes the wrong person to do that with because we already know that he has a reputation for being outspoken and not having friends and now with this unceremonious way of being kicked out i expect for him to be going very public which can be good for us because well be able to see what was really behind the strategy and thinking or lack thereof and Key International issues that weve all been wondering about abduct reshape thanks so much thank you. Now there have been reports of a large explosion near the u. S. Embassy in afghanistans capital a plume of smoke has been seen near the compound in kabuls green psion it would be the 1st major attack in the Afghan Capital since President Donald Trump abruptly called off those u. S. Taliban talks on the brink of an apparent tale to end the u. S. Is longest war thats the story well keep following for you here on aljazeera a still ahead so on the knees after the dramatic suspension of parliament the u. K. Prime minister Boris Johnson insists a new deal is possible plus. The. Right democracy protesters in hong kong take their defiance to the football pitch. It is called argentina are celebrating an unexpected win at the basketball world cup soccer will be here with that story. First their israeli media say rocket fire briefly cut short on election by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu just hours after he announced he would annex parts of the occupied west bank if hes reelected israels military said it intercepted 2 rockets from the gaza strip but there was no claim of responsibility netanyahu has been criticized for his promise to take control of the Jordan Valley with the arab league saying it will undermine the peace process. With united so im asking you to give me the mandate to extend israeli law to all the settlements out of respect for President Trump im waiting to do this in maximum coordination with the administration but there is one place where the diplomatic circumstances are ripe to do this very soon if im elected i commit to the next the Jordan Valley north of the debt sea it is our eastern border our defense wall well netanyahu said the trumpet ministration socalled middle east peace plan would provide a historic opportunity for extending israeli sovereignty over the occupied west bank and other areas are a force that has more from west to receive them. If Benjamin Netanyahu were to make good on this pledge to annex a huge part of the occupied west bank the Jordan Valley and the northern shores of the dead sea some 30 percent or so of the territory of the occupied west bank it would be an enormous deal it would be a real up setting of the entire predicate of how a settlement between the israelis and the palestinians could be reached in the future the whole idea of a 2 state solution depends on the possibility of a viable palestinian state and by saying that israel would merely unilaterally annex such a huge part of that territory leaving the city of jericho as an isolated island within that israeli annexed area that would explode the idea of such a state indeed were getting that message from Senior Palestinian politicians kind of ashrawi a Senior Member of the p. L. O. Saying that this is being done in concert with the trumpet ministration to eradicate and hopes of a 2 state solution assad erekat the secretary general of the p. L. O. Saying that it buries any chances of peace between israelis and the palestinians at the u. N. Secretary general a spokesman saying that it would devastate any hopes of reviving negotiations between israel and the palestinians however this is all a big if if it were to happen because this was made by netanyahu not as Prime Minister the Prime Ministers office made that clear it was made by him as leader of likud in the last week of a bitterly fought Election Campaign where hes desperately trying to get as many right wing votes for his ruling party as possible he said that this would happen with him as Prime Minister if they gave him the is really good as gave him the mandate to do so he was the man to make the most of this historic opportunity not his political opponents and he said that it would be a case of waiting for the trump peace plan to come out and then making this part of that in the immediate period. After the election he has made similar pledges about annex in parts or extending israeli sovereignty to parts of the west bank the occupied west bank in the past and has then result from really making that concrete so there are all sorts of caveats all sorts of question marks that hang over this it was part of his election it was electioneering campaign in these final days of the Election Campaign but obviously if it were to go ahead it would cause huge ructions and has been bitterly and vehemently opposed already by both the palestinian leadership and members of the International Community a man who has been acting as chief palestinian negotiator here side erekat described netanyahu his proposal as a war crime what Prime Minister netanyahu are certain night about asking his people for amend it to allow that will enable him to n. X. The Jordan Valley. Is paramount to our crime in excess in a fuck about actor toris as or through with mr netanyahu and those who help or add mr netanyahu and such a vision of annexing jerusalem an excellent hebrew and actually the Jordan Valley the jordan river that did see and then keeping palestinians inside theres a small towns and villages as prisoners without any freedom that is a war crime and has about as we are about to enter the 74th session or the General Assembly of the United Nations then t
