Shaky start to Syria peace talks in Russia as opposition delegates refuse to leave Sochi airport

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 05:13 AM PST

Shaky start to Syria peace talks in Russia as opposition delegates refuse to leave Sochi airportA Russian-organised peace conference aimed at ending the war in Syria had a shambolic start on Tuesday, after dozens of opposition delegates refused to leave the airport in Sochi and others backed out at the last minute. Moscow, a staunch Assad ally, is hosting what it has called a Syrian Congress of National Dialogue in the Black Sea resort that it hopes will launch negotiations on drafting a new constitution for Syria after almost seven years of war. But the conference, which is running in parallel to the United Nations-negotiated talks, looked in jeopardy after more than 70 rebel delegates refused to leave the airport until all logos and emblems representing the government were removed. A rebel source told the Telegraph Russia had promised to change or remove the symbol of the congress, which read "Peace to the People of Syria" but only featured the regime flag, only to be greeted by them at the arrivals gate.

They sat at the terminal until other transport was arranged. pic.twitter.com/hjSVlH0uR1— Neil Hauer (@NeilPHauer) January 30, 2018 The Syrian Negotiation Commission (SNC), the country's main opposition group, meanwhile said following two days of UN-led talks in Vienna last week that it would not attend the Sochi congress. Turkey, which backs the opposition and is co-sponsoring the talks with Iran, which supports Bashar al-Assad's government, said it would represent the rebels. Lt. Col. Ahmad al-Saud of Idlib's Free Syrian Army claimed the opposition delegation was mistreated by Russian authorities at the airport, where he was detained for several hours Credit: Twitter/CombatChris1 Sergei Lavrov, Russia's foreign minister, was heckled during his opening statement, with several delegates accusing Moscow of killing civilians in Syria with its air strikes. "In Russia, it's polite to say 'please' first," Mr Lavrov responded, saying they would have a chance to speak later. The conference was initially billed as a two-day event but was cut down to one. Observers noted that much of Tuesday's programme was taken up with a long lunch and dinner, leaving little time for discussion. Attendees shout slogans prior to a plenary session at the Congress of Syrian National Dialogue in Sochi  Credit: AFP Britain, the US and France did not send any official delegates because of what they say is the government's refusal to properly engage. Western powers support the UN process, which is now in its ninth round but has so far failed to make any major headway. The conference was also also boycotted by Kurdish delegates over Turkey's offensive on the Kurdish People's Protection Units (YPG) militia in Afrin, a northern Syrian enclave on the border with Turkey. A few Kurdish officials attended in a personal capacity and reportedly met in private with Russian counterparts on the sidelines of the conference. The main aim of the Sochi talks is to establish a committee to create a post-war constitution for Syria with UN backing, according to a draft statement. However, any deal agreed without he Kurds, which control some 25 per cent of territory in Syria, will unlikely succeed.  The poor start is a blow to Russia, which has been positioning itself a Middle East peace broker and trying to consolidate influence in the region as the US increasingly takes a step back from the Syrian crisis under President Donald Trump. "The whole point of the congress was to have a serious negotiation with the Kurds, or at least the Higher Negotiating Committee (the most relevant opposition body)," Neil Hauer, s security analyst focused on Russia-Syria relations, told the Telegraph from Sochi.  "Neither of them are here, and as such there's not much that can be discussed. Nor will anything announced here have much legitimacy. It will be very difficult for the Russians to spin this as a win." The opposition has accused Russia of not being an honest broker after failing to uphold a deal made in previous round of talks in Kazakhstan. Both sides agreed to so-called de-escalation zones across Syria, which government forces have since violated. Hours before the the congress got underway, nearly a dozen civilians were killed in a pro-government air strike on the largest market in rebel-held Idlib province. The government is now focused on the northwestern province of Idlib, which is dominated by al-Qaeda-linked militants and home to more than 2.6 million people, nearly half of whom have fled from other areas. It appears to have stepped up its bombing campaign in Idlib in recent days. The Observatory reported 90 airstrikes in Idlib on Monday alone.

Taiwan holds live-fire drills as tensions with China mountTaiwanese troops Tuesday staged live-fire exercises simulating a response to an invasion, as China steppeds up pressure on the island's President Tsai Ing-wen and a row over airline routes escalated.

Tsai last month warned against what she called Beijing's "military expansion" -- the increase in Chinese air and naval drills around the island since she came to power in May 2016.

North Korea has stepped up executions, says top US commander 

Posted: 30 Jan 2018 04:31 AM PST

North Korea has stepped up executions, says top US commander North Korea has stepped up its executions, the top commander of US troops on the Korean Peninsula said on Monday, amid increasing strain on the its military from international economic sanctions. "We're seeing some increase in executions, mostly against political officers who are in military units, for corruption," General Vincent K Brooks, the top US commander in South Korea told the Wall Street Journal. He added that the actions "are really about trying to clamp down on as much as possible on something that might be deteriorating and keeping it from deteriorating too quickly." In recent months the South Korean press has reported the possible execution of Park In-young, the official in charge of Pyongyang's nuclear test facilities, and former military chief, General Hwang Pyong-so, who was accused of allegedly taking bribes. General Brooks also noted a recent shift in the pattern of defections from the North. "We're seeing defections happening in areas where we don't generally see them, for example crossing the DMZ (Demilitarised Zone on the border)," he said. Meanwhile, North Korea has been cutting back on its winter military drills as harsh sanctions over its nuclear and weapons programme begin to bite, say analysts. The military exercises, which usually run from December to March, got started late and aren't as extensive as before, the Journal reported. The United Nations has placed major restrictions on imports of oil and refined petroleum products to North Korea, which may have led to a reduction in military activities to save fuel. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un visiting the State Academy of Sciences at an undisclosed location Credit:  AFP "Where this will have an effect in on ground-force readiness," Joseph Bermudez, a military analyst for 38 North, a website run by Johns Hopkins University's US-Korea Institute, told the paper. "Military units have to train to maintain their proficiency." North Korean workers overseas, previously a big source of foreign currency for the regime, are also now being sent home from their host countries after strict new sanctions imposed by the UN in August, following Pyongyang's test of an intercontinental ballistic missile. On Tuesday it emerged that Angola was the latest country to terminate all of its contracts with North Korean construction company, Mansudae, and had asked its employees to leave.

Russian fighter jet 'passes 5ft in front of US surveillance plane' over Black SeaA Russian Su-27 fighter jet intercepted a US surveillance plane over the Black Sea on Monday, prompting the American government to protest the manoeuvre as "an unsafe interaction". The US State Department said the Russian jet closed to within five feet and crossed directly in front of the EP-3 Aries II plane. The encounter, first reported by Russia's RIA news agency, cited the defence ministry as saying the US Navy aircraft, did not violate Russian air space. "This is but the latest example of Russian military activities disregarding international norms and agreements," said the State Department. "We call on Russia to cease these unsafe actions that increase the risk of miscalculation, danger to aircrew on both sides, and midair collisions."

"After the surveillance plane of the US Navy had changed its course to move away from the border, the Su-27 returned to its base," RIA quoted the Russian defence ministry as saying.  Russian jets and Nato aircraft have frequently come close together over the Black Sea, the Baltic region, Syria and elsewhere.

Tensions between the Gulf states and Qatar developed into an outright feud last June as a result of Qatar's drift toward Iran, which led the Saudis and their partners to impose a boycott and cut off air, sea, and land routes to Qatar. Instead of responding positively to a demand that it cut ties with Tehran, Qatar defiantly restored full diplomatic relations with Iran.

FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe steps down after clashes with Donald Trump

Posted: 29 Jan 2018 09:52 AM PST

FBI deputy director Andrew McCabe steps down after clashes with Donald TrumpAndrew McCabe, the FBI deputy director who Donald Trump has repeatedly criticised in public, has stepped down from the role.   Mr McCabe, who held the post since early 2016, will formally leave the FBI in mid-March when he becomes eligible for full retirement benefits.  The US president has effectively accused him of political bias in the past because Mr McCabe's wife ran for a Virginia state senate seat as a Democrat.  The news comes a week after reports Mr Trump was urging his departure behind the scenes and once asked him how he voted.  Mr McCabe, the second most senior person in the FBI, was expected to leave the agency in March but the announcement he was leaving his post now came as a surprise.  FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is, and has been, a dedicated public servant who has served this country well. Bogus attacks on the FBI and DOJ to distract attention from a legitimate criminal inquiry does long term, unnecessary damage to these foundations of our government.— Eric Holder (@EricHolder) January 29, 2018 It marks another twist in the fractured relationship between Mr Trump and the intelligence agencies, with the president sacking James Comey, the FBI director, shortly after taking office.  Mr McCabe, briefly acting director after Mr Comey's departure, has become the target for Mr Trump's ire over the last year.  His wife received several hundred thousand dollars from a political fund linked to Hillary Clinton in her unsuccessful bid for a state senate seat in 2015.  Mr McCabe reportedly stepped back from any involvement in investigations into Virginian political figures or Ms Clinton.  Nonetheless Mr Trump has repeatedly voiced criticism over the link. In December he tweeted: How can FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe, the man in charge, along with leakin' James Comey, of the Phony Hillary Clinton investigation (including her 33,000 illegally deleted emails) be given $700,000 for wife's campaign by Clinton Puppets during investigation?— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 23, 2017 After reports Mr McCabe was waiting to become eligible for his full pension before retiring, Mr Trump tweeted:  FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe is racing the clock to retire with full benefits. 90 days to go?!!!— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 23, 2017 It is unclear why his departure from the role came on Monday, given he was already expected to retire in March.  It came a week after reports that Mr Trump asked Mr McCabe how he voted in 2015 – he said he did not vote – and that the FBI was coming under pressure to remove him.  Sarah Sanders, the White House press secretary, denied the White House was involved in the removal, saying: "The president wasn't part of this decision-making process." So they will keep him on till then despite all this to make sure the American tax payer is stuck paying him for the rest of his life? https://t.co/5MVh9xAUxR— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) January 29, 2018
