N. A. T. Forces for more than a year but they didnt succeed mahmoud has the latest from tripoli. Government of National Accord here in tripoli seems to be adhering to the fact that the oil located should be lifted as a prerequisite to any political settlement and the country on the other hand the group based parliament this is the parliament affiliated with the warlord Khalifa Haftar says in this statement that the oil revenues at the oil should be brought back to normal production but with one condition that all oil revenues should be deposited in a special account in libyas for external bank and it should not be should not be.

To discover a huge natural gas reserve in the black sea the president missed his screen has been made. I really am delighted to bring this good news to you 2 he has successfully found the largest gas field in the black sea this is the biggest exploration and the biggest discovery in turkeys history. So im concerned who has been across mr erdogan speech in stone ball she says the government is hoping that the find could bring a much needed boost for the economy the size of the gas reserves found by that by turkey is of course very small compared to the energy giant countries like china or United States or russia but will it be a remedy for the ailing turkish economy thats the question and this is what the turkish government is very positive about turkeys and that Energy Importer country for instance in 2900. 00 took imported 45000000000 cubic meters of natural gas and it costs around 15000000000. 00 u. S. Dollars for turkey and it constitutes at least half of turkeys current account deficit so for a country like turkey totally dependent on Foreign Energy supplies even though its a short term gain its of course the size the scale of the. Resource is not enough to be a game changer but its going to provide tricky a lever it in the black sea also a legitimate station of Energy Exploration in the Eastern Mediterranean this is how the government sees and of course this is good news for the ruling party to consolidate its electorate given a fragile economic turbulence turkey is going through. There are some new developments surrounding the condition of the russian opposition politician alexina volumnia whos in a hospital recovering from suspected poisoning his wife has appealed to the russian president Vladimir Putin to allow her husband to be taken to germany for treatment now one doctor at the hospital in the city of all says he could be stable enough to travel in the next few hours of only went into a coma on thursday a police lab says it found traces of an Industrial Chemical on his body but russian doctors say there is no indication that he was actually poisoned chalons spent time covering russia for us extensively here on aljazeera he joins us this from london so rory can you travel on alt. Well it looks like were getting a bit of a shift from the hospital in squee have. Near lines coming from the chief doctor there alexander miracle ski and what he is saying now is that it appears that the valley is stable enough to travel that he has been in a an artificially induced coma but the hospital can arrange for transportation for no valley to get to the airports in arms can i remember that at the airport in arms there is a small plane that had been sent from germany. That was has been waiting there to take. Me out of russia to germany way he can get medical attention there are also german doctor is in homs q have been to the hospital and they have been in 2 to siena valley up until this the russian doxes had been saying that he was not stable enough to travel and they wouldnt really counts against this now that its had received fierce criticism from the valleys wife union of ana and from his spokesperson his spokeswoman kiriakou and other aid colleagues that he has people in it volkova is them his chief of staff all of them have been saying this was a stalling tactic saying that he couldnt leave the country that he couldnt leave the hospital was a storing attacked stalling tactic essentially designs to make sure that whatever toxins whatever poisons were it is system had time to flush outs and be less detectable thats their theory of course the doctors have been saying we havent found any tops in this already poisons in his system we dont think that that is the cause. His illness they say that the cause of his illness metabo metabolic disturbance essentially down to a low blood sugar level given his former relationship is combative relationship with Vladimir Putin and the kremlin if he leaves russia is there a chance once hes well and face an up and running that they wont let him back in again. Very difficult to say at the moment i mean obviously hes a russian citizen so for him to be barred from entering the country is a fairly big step to take. His daughter is currently out of the country studying in the United States is wife and some still there they would presume go with him if he did go to germany to receive medical attention there they would have to think very hard about whether they wanted to come back to russia given the day to day housman that he receives hes followed all the time by trolls and he really shattered pieces out there on the street. Being targeted numerous times by the police who raided his office is hes had chemicals thrown in his face he says hes been poisoned before is a very tough man but that is a huge amount of pressure to live on a day to day and you have to ask the question of whether he wants to go back to russia or if he left rory understood thanks very much for a challenge the reporting from london the other russian opposition candidate is calling for more mass protests to keep up the pressure on the president Alexander Lukashenko to come off sky is leading the call for the president to resign there have been demonstrations for 12 Straight Days now including some of the biggest antigovernment rallies in minsk since the fall of the soviet union took him off sky and fled to lithuania after the election which she says was rigged against her. People in bellerose today are being beaten just for expressing their opinion people in velour reuss are being thrown in prison for taking part in peaceful protests my husband is in prison in bella ruse just for daring to dream about a country for life our common goal is simple we dont want to live with fear and lies anymore we want what everyone in the world is entitle to the right to live the right to be safe in the street the right not to be imprisoned without a fair trial and the right to fair free and transparent elections. Following the News Conference in the capital minsk she was asked if she is going to 6 run forward a presidency again if there would be a new Fair Elections but she was very invasive about this question she said its a bit early days and it is indeed early days because the situation here in minsk and in belarus has significantly significantly changed in the last couple of days its very clear that. Tightening his grip on power hes still very much in control of the Security Forces protests have still been going on but they are smaller than they were before there is this Opposition Council which also has been installed by sky and thats why im here at this theater because one of the leaders of this. Council is now in hiding because hes fearing for his life members of the council have also been faced with charges criminal charges for an appeal to overthrow the government several members of this council have been questioned this morning there was fear that they would be detained but they have just. Gone out of this Investigative Committee but there is also of course a lot of fear that this Police Crackdown that we saw just 2 weeks ago is going to happen again. The e. U. And the u. K. Are once again blaming each other for another round of brics that talks the admits of gone nowhere its the 7th time negotiators have met this disagreements remain on significant areas such as fisheries policy too often to speak he treated as if we were going backwards more than for us given to short time left but i said you dont turn to dry it remains true today a different stage an agreement between u. K. And europe or union seems unlikely i simply do not understand why we are wasting valuable time.
