a secretary of state wants qatar to perhaps recognize israel. qatar wants to make sure that the blockade to that it's been experiencing for nigh on 3 and a half years is lifted. what's going to happen? yes. what is going to go to this is ministration that they would like to see some kind of movement when it comes to the music of the gulf, paid on. so you took the other countries have there's been talk perhaps of lifting partial of the flights. but the fact that perhaps qatar airways and flights could be flying over saudi arabia and bahrain, something they've not been able to do for almost 4 years. but again, none of that is confirmed. you know, qatar has been issued for this role under the table, recognizing it or not really doesn't make that much of a difference. i think the sticking points here are going to be iran, for example. of course, we know that this is a ministration, extremely hard line against iran has good relations with the right. it's one of the demands of the blockading countries that qatar cut its ties with iran, something it's

speaking at a global security forum hosted in polish by qatar. he said he'd like to see that happen in the next 70 dates before the transition of office. saudi arabia,, the u.a.e. egypt, and bahrain posed on land, sea, and air blockade, and 2017 years government is sending reinforcements to its rest of northern to great region to p.l.f. forces are appealing to the international community to condemn be offensive. but the government has ruled out any mediation efforts. the u.k. report is criticized saudi arabia for its human rights violations against women in detention. that's ahead of a g. 20 summit hosted by the saudi government next week. report was released by baroness helena kennedy. she's a member of parliament house, it states, there's clear and credible evidence that many women have been imprisoned and tortured for criticizing the government. a number of people were interviewed including former detainees and relatives of women's rights activists. report mentions allegations of torture, inhumane and degrading conditions of detention, solitar

is one of the countries blockading qatar. so the ways in which this could impact the balance of power in the middle east. obviously, very relevant to the discussions that we have here in washington. but i think it's important to point out that it doesn't really seem likely that congress will be able to stop this from happening. it seems that this is one of numerous issues where the trump administration is very aggressively pushing ahead with its agenda during its remaining weeks in our own. what would be the timeline as you say, not many weeks out from the new administration. what does this mean fed by them as, as president well, biden is going to come to power in january with many, many difficult issues that he has to deal with. and i think what the trump administration wants to do, you know, there was a c.n.n. article that said this, that the trumpet ministration is trying to create as many fires as possible for the incoming administration. now obviously the united arab emirates is an important partner of the united states.

in qatar. they're aiming to strike a deal to end the decades of conflict. since the taliban was toppled from power in the us that invasion in 2001. there is, has always been a consideration, a concern that there will be splendid groups within the girl about what, not happy with the peace process. and they want to be kind of on government and steve or beat everything that they have been able to push. the americans across the u.s. is also pushing to end its longest war. in 2 months time, its promise with 2 or 2 and a half 1000 of its soldiers from afghanistan, and many u.s. bases, it be handed over by the afghan army. but that's due to happen during a very violent here. the u.n. says nearly $6000.00 afghan civilians were killed or wounded in the 1st 9 months of 2020. it says the taliban was responsible for 45 percent of civilian casualties. government troops for 23 percent. and with many hoping that a deal would put an end to the violence. the u.n. says it's reaching near record levels. you're about among the al-jazeera senior white house adviser, jared kush

dancer, bahrain, and qatar and the sun's back out. and iraq, as it is mostly in the levant, heading south this season or right now is where it should be said, more or less tanzania, and west woods to go to a sort of area. still a few showers, stray showers further south and of course the potential for flash flooding in the north of somalia because what we just talked about in the arabian sea. but the rain now should go south and he's done that. the proper rain seems to be running through angola, botswana, and down to the middle of south africa. but if you're further west, you'll find in cape town, the temperatures drop to $23.00, and then when it's sunny for 23 years. musson has collected objects. he kinds along the coast, enough to fill his museum enough to break a guinness world record. with a story that every object has become an environmental activist and inspired artist . and a voice for the plight of countless markets. might you need such an al-jazeera? the the, the in value watching out his era. let's remind you of our top stor

and he says there are indications that a resolution between qatar and its neighbors could be possible. syria gets close to the saudi royal family have said publicly that prince mamma, no, saudi arabia wants to quote, give the resolution to go as a gift to the incoming biden administration. so this is positive rhetoric into community and diplomatic sources that i have talked to over the past several months . i will point to you that the resolution this would incite, of course, we don't know whether or not a resolution to the crisis will be her solved before trump leaves office, or immediately after biden takes office. so that is the question mark is, is really not if, but when the crisis putting out there in its neighbors was a manufactured crisis. it was a crisis that was based on the false allegations that and all these olisa allegations have been proved to be on true and in the expert community understands that now. so why are the question is really, how do you get that back in order? so this is really a matter of semantics, but i think that also because jerry kirshner, as we know,

, indicating that there really is a solution between the book caving states and qatar appears to be in sight. and we have just seen just days ago, as a matter of fact, syria gets close to the saudi royal family have said publicly that prince mohammed of saudi arabia wants to quote, give the resolution to the gulf crisis as a gift to the coming bite in the administration, so this is positive rhetoric in the halls of the expert community and diplomatic sources that i've talked to over the past several months. all point to that, there are a solution this would incite, of course, we don't know whether or not a resolution to the crisis will be solved before trump leaves office, or immediately after biden takes office. so that is the question mark is, is really not if, but when i do want to ask you more about that because we saw a pump a 0 in the region about a week ago. and given that we are in a lame duck period, that just how much authority is this administration viewed as having abroad? is there a sense that the by the administration might take a different approach in the region, especia

and qatar, speaking in moscow, in a 5 star hotel, is much more easier than actually practicing it in afghanistan. in the rural villages through you are full soldiers who are not educated. what they have heard. 2 years of fighting is hate towards woman hate towards society killing murder. how, do you change perspectives? but saves her harshest criticism for the u.s., which she says has failed to follow through on a war that it began. about the west came to afghanistan, not just because they wanted to save us. they came to afghanistan after the $911.00 attack happened to me york. so they actually came to afghanistan, partly to save their own from terroristic attacks. now, because the americans want to leave, we just ignore the woman. it's a question. u.s. government cannot answer and they did not agree to speak to us. what is clear is that after the death of tens of thousands of people, many view a peace deal with the taliban as a stunning betrayal. baguettes that was, i only play on and on all those american and nato soldiers who have been killed. they weren't fighting me. i didn't ki

i don't like to see that get done before and if we end up leaving office, qatar's foreign minister says the blockade which has dragged into a 4th year has no winner. everyone is losing. we are hopeful that this i think, moment and what we need to buy now is to have a serious engagement in a good faith with the other countries. and this is what i was prepared to do. i mean nothing. so it is accused of supporting terrorism, which they say that anybody who talks to anybody in the muslim brotherhood or allows free elections if there was or talks to it. iran on this or there is no doubt is really have discredited themselves quite a bit. and it's surprising that they haven't found a face saving way to end this blockade, but let's hope this, this maybe in the u.a.e. may be a spoiler for any proposed agreement. as a brian was speaking of a resolution to the gulf crisis being a priority for the trumpet ministration. the u.s. ambassador to washington was saying otherwise, well, look at that rift. i don't think it's going to get resolved any time soon. it's a small problem. it's not really being a
