after the war last year, russia exploded turkey. so for ingres, normalization with armenia is a way to regain a seat at the table for the broader problems, restoration of regional trade and reopening of borders. so in that context, armenia is in a good position to counter the threat of isolation. >> matthew, russia is in a good position, but it does not mean the americans have a seat at the table. do they have relevance here? >> i was hinting at that before. i think u.s. relevancy has decreased dramatically since right before and during the war. the u.s. is still the u.s. and a member of the multilateral working group called the minsk group. but the role in that organization remains to be seen. the basics of the conflict have been settled militarily and there is a need for negotiation and a comprehensive peace agreement and an agreement to demarcate the borders. and russia was able to insert in a communique to say the parties will begin negotiations and form working groups and russia will help them. so russia stepped in with a 2000

it's not russia, it's turkey, it's armenia. richard in iraq and we are running out of time, but just quickly, did you ever think that they was going to come? yes, to be honest. i've been a long engage, been invested in normalization between arminian 30 and my eternal optimism is now a justified optimism. and you would you agree? did you think the study would ever come? yeah, not the one or more parties are involving level, but for the open to deflect. that means they already i already or so they probably will be ready now, although this is a turkey armenia success, i'm going to ask the last question to matthew matthew about if this works out and the americans and russians can get behind it. does that mean they can get behind other disagreements in the region, other disagreements globally, or is this just a one else? i think this is a one off for all sorts of unique reasons. but, you know, as i was saying before, the russian side always negotiated and in good faith when we were doing with the corner car box. and i think that tha

make deliver a very cheap, very affordable and that would make turkeys exports, affordable turkey would become a destination for global tories. and if it already was not entered on his thinking that driven by strong exports and strong tourism sector and helped by a depreciated lira. turkey would make a phenomenal come back economically. right, so that's his plan. cars he has lost over its value against antola this year. now how a people inside the country clipping with this huge drop in the value of that money doesn't look very good for him. i think that out on has one until recently over it doesn't nationwide elections on a platform of strong economic growth. he has a base that loves him, that includes many people. he has lifted out of poverty. these people have seen that their savings disappear as, as well as inflation. a go higher than it has been in recent memory in over 2 decades. so i think unless he restored phenomenal economic growth, a prisoner dawn is not winning the next election. luckily for him. elections in turkey are not scheduled until june 2023, so he has about 18 month

and turkey. taken ezra measures to, to prevent the new military raw's and also you promised turkey to, to is the result restrictions for turkish citizens. and also to revisit their custom unions agreement between the 2 parties and earth plus to provide sister 1000000000 euros to turkey. or when it comes to financial issues mosley, the promises had been kept worth the cost of unions and there and did there, there, there the other issues researchers, lamb in the ease off the restrictions or for turkish to this is that haven't been cap. but as i said, the, the parties are accrues in each other, particularly greece and turkey. but the officials at the end of this, as that is a change in issue and the ground is, is quite full. it is almost impossible to reduce the flow of the refugees to 0, but at the end of the day, i still believe that was a successful agreement because at least 85 percent of the refugees have been prevented to take the road to agency or the mediterranean thank you very much for that update wrestle, sat, our life for us from ankara and petra mama is the associate directo

a few of them might be looking at a turkey in desperation. so the gulf, countries by and large have not been able to, to fully assert their own sovereignty in terms of protecting themselves. and they're actually reliant on for in the military and other support. but this is a good thing to do with the iranians and the parents around the adults are going to have to work out a mechanism that provide some kind of stability and basic rights for all people concerning the military threat. the sanctions threats. you know, all of these so tough guy approaches that have come out of washington and israel, very much driven by israel and was the are both say it's kinda hanging on as bit actors in this process that hasn't worked. and we've seen now incredible stories coming out of iran by good reporters law, foreign and middle eastern ones, all saying they have a much, much more advanced nuclear industry. now that you know, 3 or 5 years ago. so the approaches families that the u. s. has tried to impose and essentially the, the shorthand of what henry said.

the man credited as turkey's digital pioneer is russian shocker. where you're going back in 2015 after repeatedly being censored, took a created a platform called metro attracted like minded journalists and remains as talk talk to you to channel independent news and then the 5 people to come until last year with a celebrated and grown fox tv, one of the few non government lined out the left, but off the several fine charge to the channel, who called resigned and turned to the, to taking his followers with him. but perhaps the most famous turkish youtube of late isn't actually a journalist to talk. he's the president, your short term gave him, is it talk to a lot of services in june 2021, hosted a live stream on youtube in an attempt to attract support from generations. the it back to thousands of criticisms poured in. and the hash tag, you won't receive our dotted trending, and one of the common section to be disabled. just only days later, he delivered this speech to members of his ruling policy. you can also measure the met the measure that and n

what sectors in turkey can benefit the most stand to benefit the most from trade with africa? well 1st of all, we can say for sure that the construction sector is one of the things that is really, really important in relationship, but also other sectors than just the text on industries. but also the defense industries. right now the thing is tell as one of the countries that have a good technology in terms of drone technology anyway. and we have seen in the recent days and weeks, many countries trying to seal deals with the turkish, a government in order to purchase drone. we have example to be fuel. here we have example nigeria, urine, public. recently, we have a deal with one target private firms to buy a. all right, mr. money, masoud with the think tank. the institute for strategic thinking, excuse me, thanks very much for joining us. lovely or shift gears a little bit, go to germany. ross goose is a traditional holiday dish in the country. but this year there's a problem. bird flu is raging on the viruses even been found in wild birds in some parts of germany. and that's t

i mean, there are competing, you might say powers in africa all vying for turkeys attention and turkey. very interested in a region that's already got a lot of foreign competition in a district. well, i think the african countries have been looking for their alternative options and due to their colonial luggage, and also the accumulated daft as well while dealing with the countries such as france and china. but for turkey, so particularly when it come to their sub saharan countries, it doesn't have a call on your luggage. and their way that they made a make business is not about the equity. 5th. that so that is given a kind of a competitive advantage for, for turkey and when it comes to their construction, which african countries definitely needs or did there the food industry and did the military coup mans that doesn't a necessity of any kind of regulation. legal regulations that restrict their operations and so on. so trek is becoming very much appealing. so the defense industry is quite appealing, particularly for the companies like nigeria, like it to appear while they are dealing

a chrome prince went to turkey. the 1st visit in 9 years could, could it be an indication that in the this bar this predominantly sunday, part of the will, somebody does as saying of the americans are not going to be a reliable potter in the near future. it's about time to have a strong ally that we can go to in case the situation gets worse. i would discount what you mentioned about this, the predominantly sooner this has nothing to do with sunday or shower. anything else? this is a, this is national viability. national sovereignty, national dignity, national rights, but they are, countries are clearly, most of them leadership, some of the people, necessarily, the leaderships are really quite flustered. they don't know what's going on with the realignments in the region smashing around, trying to find any relationship. so it will, will protect them, but they turn to iran, the turn to turkey, the turn of china, russia getting more involved. so fascinating signs, especially, they are on turkey relationships because i

in turkey, we have 140 daily deaths. and these turkish figures are more impressive because turkey has a substantially bigger population than france. the turkish population is 83 million, whereas france is about 67 million. now, the major reason for the difference in these figures is that omicron hasn't hit turkey for force yet. on december 21, the health minister said omicron was responsible for 10% of new infections. today, however, he warned that the omicron responsibility's share of new infections is rising, so we must watch out. and he said people must take precautions. end tonight -- and tonight, the police have closed down the center of ingres -- ankara, which is about two kilometers over there. another factor the government has reason to be proud of is that 83% of adults in turkey have had two jabs, they are fully vaccinated. end 18 million people -- and 18 million people have had the booster. julia: find you, it doesn't seem to be a reasonably festive atmosphere, although low-key. what do turkish people want from

a chrome prince went to turkey. the 1st visit in 9 years could, could it be an indication that in the, this bar, this predominantly cindy part of the well, some leaders as saying if the americans are not going to be a reliable potter in the near future, it's about time to have a strong ally that we can go to in case the situation gets worse. i would discount what you mentioned about this, predominantly somebody this has nothing to do with sunday or she our anything else? this is, this is national viability, national sovereignty, national dignity and national rights. but they are, countries are clearly, most of them, the leadership, not the people necessarily. the leaderships are really quite flustered. they don't know what's going on with the realignments. and the reason i'm there smashing around, trying to find any relationships that will will protect them. but they turn to iran, the turn to turkey, the turn to china, russia getting more into all these fascinating symes, especially they are on turkey relationships

but with regards to turkey, it's been a very active one. in recent years, both ankara and off, i think it's, i, on many issues beyond those agreements that you know will help to bolster the turkish economy, which has been full term lease in terms of the value of the currency that will help turkey. i thought also expand its interest in strengthening gets its relationship for the strong nato ally. there is a, let's say i renewed outlook from katara and turkey to try and settle disputes and conflicts within the region. now to 30 years, one of the world's oldest surviving works of literature has been returned to a rog. this wall clay artifact known as the gilgamesh dream tablet, was stolen during the 1st gulf war. mohammed vow has the story. it's known as ganesh, dream tablets, an artifact made of play with an engraved fragment of the epic of ganesh. one of the world's oldest, no religious texts. it was stolen from an iraqi museum in 1991 and sent to the united states. now it's back along with the world's attention ceremony. us embassy official

he said that it turkey is against turkey, is ignoring any kind of small or oriental as george towards africa, any kind of colonization. that's why turkey is after partnership type model, a lation with turkey has let me phrase summarize it like this through. he had just 12 embassies in africa in 2002, and now it's 43. so it shows the importance that sure to give it to african countries. and to the summit, we are expecting the 5 year joint action plan that will be signed by the member states member who are here, which will be focusing on industry, trade, or military corporation education. factoring the women's situation and rights in african countries. and many other subjects than turkey is also willing to assist african countries in counter terrorism operations. so he has military presence in somalia in 2 ways. hm. is there a within a, within the concept of united nations and turkey is also present in molly and some other places in africa with the european union, with the united nations issues mission. so we will be hearing more when there is a joint dresser in a couple of hours. all r

since turkey doesn't have raw materials, it tests the import. many, many things. prices are based on dollars, so even wheat for instance, right. they are, it's is more expensive right now, and people expect more increase even on the breadth prices. okay, so in a couple of months, as i said, there will be more inflation as for x percent more difficult phase for the regular citizens, but just one thing during on the other side, turkish exports are on the rise. turkey turkey is giving budget surplus in the last 4 months, so one side, there's the earning exporters reduction in dusty, but the regular citizens are losing okay. sounds like a thank you so much to know because of our glue reporting from istanbul. artisan, gaza, or highlighting the need to protect the environment by turning a dunked site into a leisure center. the initiative allows people to enjoy the beach for free, as long as they clean the shore human and say it has more on the story. it was his dream come true. 6 young people who live hearing cars. they got together and built the fun
