center stage, of course, to the remarks of john kerry, the situation regarding ukraine. >> reporter: that's right. you heard there his comments making clear that the minzk agreement is the only way forward. that, of course, was an agreement that the russians and ukrainians wanted to ceasing fire. he also talked about the normandy format in which the governments come together to find progress, to try to find common ground, a way forward. we know that the format which met this morning, nothing tangible came out of that. we also heard from john kerry about the commitment to nato which the american government seize as being central to its policy in europe and how the american government was going to increase four-fold its investment about a combat brigade >>> can i just jump in so that we can go back to john kerry and listen. >> we welcome the announcement of countries in europe that have decided to join this fight. we are going to defeat d.a.e.s.h. i have no doubt about it. even as we do that, there's a lot of work that we have to do on a measure abable - in a measurable manner. first a

secretary of state john kerry said a deal of cessation of hostilities is closer than ever. hours later the syrian government and opposition said that they would be willing to concept to a cease-fire. they do not want the groups to rearm and regroup, and the opposition wants russian airstrikes to stop and sieges to be lifted. they made their situation clear but it is the u.s. and russia who are the main players. one of those details is the presence of the al nusra front, fighters linked to al-qaeda. this is designated a terrorist organization, but they fight along side who make up the political process. they say excluding al nusra front in any deal will give russia an excuse for targeting rebel positions. millions of syrians are trapped in battle grounds but it will not mean an end to the conflict. there are deep differences among the warring sides and their regional backers about what comes next. >> the answer to the syrian civil war will not be found in any military alliance with assad. let me make that clear. i am convinced it can be found in a broadly supported diplomati

john kerry and barack obama's foreign policy is in free fall. i will make a prediction, and i hope i'm wrong. if they don't change their policies towards syria, the region is going to have an imbalance that we have never seen in our lifetime and an attack against this homeland is coming, and it's coming from syria. it is being planned as i speak. we didn't know exactly what they were trying to do before 9/11, but we were worried that we were going to get attacked by al qaeda. i can tell you exactly where the attack is coming from. it is coming from rocca, syria. it is being planned while i speak. and every day the caliphate is allowed to exist is another day of danger and peril for the united states. so if president obama and john kerry did not change their policies to destroy the caliphate sooner rather than later, we would be hit here at home. if we don't get syria in a better spot soon, jordan and lebanon are going to be victims of this war. so senator mccain, i just want to end with -- mr. mccain: let me just make a couple of additional poin

kerry, and senator rubio voted to confirm him as secretary, and donald trump supported john can kerry against george w. bush, and he has been the most anti-israel secretary of state that the country has ever seen, and the diplomacy is a disaster, and if if we nominate with somebody who agreed with john kerry, and hillary clinton and president obama, then we are not in a strong position to win the election. >> and a response for you. >> and i think that i gave them both checks to be honest, and they both like me very much. >> and you called for bush to be impeach impeached. >> well, he did a terrible job and you know that. >> and you called for him to be impeached? >> no, the check came early. and syria, and he said that he was in syria, and he said that he was in favor in libya, and i never discussed subject, and i was in favor of libya, and we would be so much better off if ka gaf -- gadhafi were in charge, and we had saddam hussein in charge, and instead of terrorism all over the place, and at least they killed the terrorists, and i am not saying they were good, because they were ba

i would like to thank secretary john kerry and his team for their hospitality. the way we were received at the state department, we had a very interesting and important meeting. after yesterday's announcement by president obama, he said we were going to start a new chad ginn in our relationship, we opened the chapter called peace colombia, and this meeting allowed us to land this initiative and think about where we're going to center efforts and identify priorities such as for example to continue with the area of working in security and fighting against drug-trafficking, especially fighting against organized crime show that the vacuum that will be left by farq won't be filled by organized crime and fight against drug trafficking and organized crime in other countries in the region. we already started and there is great potential of mutual cooperation for mutual benefit's. the other issue we identified was implementation of but operationally and logistical part of the agreement. we need help their and the u.s. has great experience and knowledge in these areas. th

john kerr sisi-- kerry says a deal is closer than ever. the government doesn't want the rebels to exploit a truce to re-arm appeared regroup and the opposition wants russian air strikes to stop and sieges to be lifted. they made their positions clear, but it is the u.s. and russia who are the main players. >> reporter: one of those details is the presence of the al-nusra front, fighters who are linked to al-qaeda. the u.n. designates it a terrorist organization but it fights beside some in the political process. excluding al-nusra on any deal will give russia the excuse of targeting rebel positions. a pause in the fighting the bring relief to the millions of people trapped in battleground but will not mean an end to the district. there are deep issues between the warring sides. >> the answer to the syrian civil war will not be found in any military alliance with bashar al-assad. let me make that clear. i am convinced it can be found in a broadly supported diplomatic initiative aimed at a negotiated political settlement with a transitional

john kerry is to announce the agreement in the next few hours. afghan government forces have pulled out of the second district in southern helmand province where a fighting with the taliban has escalated. >>> and the opposition group has denied that it's members plan to cause violence to the co election areas. >> it's a battle front key to the opposition survival in a town that has gained international attention. losing azaz could be a set back to the rebels who have already lost much territory. just a few kilometers from the board crossing with turkey it is a much-needed bait way. they're surrounded by two enmice and this ally from the military situation is now better after we've received reinforcements from idlib. we fortified our positions and we responsed you're no long an-- >> people think it's a safe place. that's why internally displaced people are here. this means that we have more patience not just providing care to people in azaz. all hospitals in the northern countryside no longer operate. we also lack staff. >> many in aleppo say they

zana hoda, al jazeera, southern turkey. >>> we heard some distressing detail from john kerry speaking a short while ago in rome. he described what it is apparently like right now in besieged towns. >> cities and communities all across syria are besieged and they are specifically purposefully prevented by the assad regime from receiving the supplies and the support that they need in order to survive. that is against the law of war. such as laws of war can be. and with respect to those areas not receiving food, we're not talking about areas that are remote, miles out in the desert, and in accessible. the town of madaya is 1 hour's drive from damascus. one hour. and yet in recent months its people have been reduced to eating grass and leaves or animals of one kind [ technical difficulties ] >> we heard a very passionate john kerry there as always, and during that press conference in rome we heard [ technical difficulties ] made, you know, in this -- [ technical difficulties ] >> these are between opposition that is being bombarded every day, and a regime that is responsible for the disas

secretary of state john kerry. those using food and starvation as a weapon. people will be hopeful in those areas that the ceasefire comes into effect sooner rather than later, that it is not a shallow promise that we have seen in the post few weeks and months, but the coming hours and days will tell us whether this is the case or not >>> joshua landers is the center for the middle east studies and joins us via skype from norman oklahoma in the u.s. thank you for being with us. >> pleasure. >> what does this tell us about the threat posed by i.s.i.l., that they can get this close to the capital damascus. >> well, we have done this a number of times before. just last month there was a tremendous car bomb near the same place as this, killing shi'ites. the bombs in homs, of course, are in alawite neighbourhoods. this is, in part, revenge. almost 1,000 i.s.i.l. fighters have been surrounded by the syrian army north of aleppo, and the syrian army says it will not take prisoners. they are moving in, and will negotiate - they are not negotiating a peace with i.s.i.s

january kerry says he has-- john kerry has reached an agreement with russia in terms of a ceasefire in syria. at least 10 people have died in protests in the northern indian state. fiji's nation launch a plea after a cyclone hit. plus >> tonight i am suspending my campaign >>> bowing out by jeb bush from the u.s. presidency >>> we're closer to a ceasefire than we have been. that was the message from the u.s. secretary of state john kerry and jordan's foreign minister as they spoke earlier about syria. kerry said that the u.s. and russia have reached a provincial agreement about a pause in fighting which could begin in the coming days. >> what we have agreed on provisionally, i won't go into the details of it, because it needs to be consulted fully with the other parties and, as i said, our hope is that the two presidents will talk as soon as that is appropriate and then we proceed forward to the implementation. why is it important to do this? somebody asked me the other day. why not have the ceasefire tomorrow morning? you know, why wait a week? because a ceasefire requires an understa

that's why john kerry and others have now changed their tune about the need for assad to go. making it easier for the syrian president and his russian ally to entertain this cessation of hostilities on their terms. for more on this let's go to jamie mcintire. >> reporter: russian war planes continue to pound targets in syria just hours after the munich agreement was announced. in the northern province of homs more than a dozen people were reportedly killed as russia continue to provide air cover for forces loyal to syrian president bashar al-assad. under the agreement hashed out between russian form minister sphrofsergey lavrov and secretaf state john kerry. >> to that end we have also established a task force under the auspices of the u.n. and co-chaired by russia and the united states. over the coming week, this group will work to develop the modalities for a long term comprehensive and durable cessation of violence and hostilities. >> reporter: both sides have already gra agreed that i.s.i.l. and the el nusra front are legitimate targets, the pentagon says any eventual ass

john kerry and lavrov just announced an agreement for a ceasefire. and kerry hopes that it can be in place in a week. >> would have agreed to stop nationwide hostilities to begin in one week's time. it's ambitious, but everybody has agreed to try to achieve this. this will apply it all parties in syria with the h the exceptif the terrorist organizations -al nusra. >> he went on to say that they will facilitate humanitarian aid to all people who need it in syria. joining me, a fellow and aljazeera's national security contributor, so doug, what does it take to actually get something like this in place? >> well, there's a lot of heavy lifting to do. it shows that there's some appetite for the use of hostility. they didn't use the word, "ceasefire", and there's significance there, but getting it in place will be much harder. you have to apply this, and we should all hold our breath to see if everybody on the ground is going to allow this to happen. >> and that's a great point. what is the tipping point? we know in the last weeks, there are people starvin

secretary of state john kerry says the cease-fire could begin in a few days. the truce put together by a dozen nations, including the united states. it was supposed to go into effect friday. it did not happen. isis is claiming responsibility for the several attacks over the weekend that left more than 120 people dead. cnn's jomana karadsheh is in amman, jordan with details. good morning, jomana. >> reporter: good morning, john. violence in two major cities on sunday. in homs, two cars packed with explosives detonated in a commercial and residential area. in the center of homs there, more than 30 people killed in the attack. the same neighborhood, this is a neighborhood which is the same neighborhood sect where bashar al assad belongs. this is the fourth attack in the last few months. later on in the day, john, we saw attacks taking place in damascus in the southern outskirts in the shi'a area. a major shi'a holy shrine in the area. a car bomb detonated and as first responders and crowds gathered, two suicide bombers struck there. more than 80 people killed in

secretary of state john kerry has said a deal on a cessation of hostilities is closer than ever. hours earlier, the syrian government and the opposition said they would be ready to accept a conditional ceasefire. the government doesn't want the rebels to exploit a truce to rearm and regroup and the opposition wants russian airstrikes to stop and sieges to be lifted. they made their positions clear, but it is the u.s. and russia who are the main players. >> one of those details is the presence of the he will nusra front, fighters linked to al-qaeda. the u.n. designates is a terrorist organization, but it fights alongside some opposition groups who participate in the political process, the opposition says excluding al-nusra front in any deal would give russia an excuse to continue targeting rebel positions. a pause in the fighting will bring relief to the millions of syrians trapped in battlegrounds but will not end the conflict. there are differences between the wars sides and their u.n. and international backers about what comes next. >> the answer to the syrian civil war will no

i am not an authority on john kerry. he did earn medals. he was there. they were definitely in hot action. were they deserved or not? i am not in a place to say. admiral hoffman and company did not think he was awarded the way he should've been. maybe that he should've been there longer. >> was their allied naval support for your efforts? >> i really have not given a lot of attention to the south vietnamese. the vietnam navy. the vna. they were there way before we got there. they had leftover french equipment. some hand-me-down american equipment. sometimes they find -- american equipment. sometimes they fought very bravely. there was a book written about a commander. he was brave, there were others like him. there were others who did not write very bravely were effectively and that is the reason the u.s. navy had to get in there 1965. general westmoreland was not happy that things were going correctly in the mekong delta and the river force was really an appendage to the south vietnamese army. they dominated the navy. the highest guy in the navy was a c

secretary of state john kerry originally thanked the iranians for their cooperation and the release, but later said on "fox & friends" that those images that we saw infuriated them. listen. >> it was very, very unfortunate, inappropriate, and as a former sailor, member of the military, infuriated by it and i expressed that -- i expressed that very directly to my counterpart. >> well the medals are considered one of the highest military honors that members of that military can receive. >>> back here at home, two virginia tech students charged in a sickening crime. the death of a girl who was just 13 years old. 18-year-old david eisenhauer now faces murder 19-year-old natalie keepers faces charges of disposing a body. 13-year-old nicole lovell went missing last week. her mother says that she snuck out of her bedroom after she pushed her night stand against the door and then left through the window. lovell may have met eisenhauer on social media.

it is i don't know if possible on the terms that john kerry is pursuing. what we have said we wanted as the united states is to defeat isis, but also to see president assad replaced by transitional government and then a cease-fire , essentially a self enforcing cease-fire, another oxymoron in the discussion, and i don't see the basis for that. what i think you could see is a compromise with the bosnia model where you have separate autonomous areas and a weak central government, president assad could remain in control and some alloy areas, the group the shiaails from, like group, about 15% of the population and maybe another 15% is christian and they tend to in many cases as well, so maybe he could roll in that sector. there could be a sunni arab sector, a kurdish sector and a week federal unity government. i think that kind of a compromise is possible if everyone keeps their core equities, but beyond that, i don't see the basis of a peace deal, especially with the moderates so weak right now. host: what is happening in syria right now on the ground? who is

secondly, i must say, with all fairness, i have a lot of admiration for the energy of john kerry. secretary kerry was a driving force, together with a certain spatial or psychological understanding of foreign minister lavrov and that helped a lot, a certain emotional involvement to not waste this. even in diplomacy, emotion makes a difference. >> rose: what comes first? humanitarian aid. you know why? a few days ago i was asked and i started a conference in geneva about further future peace talks. well, i was gooded with messages from -- flooded with messages from the syrian people from inside and outside. they were telling me, please, mr. de mistura, don't give us another conference or talk about talks, we need facts. you know what are the facts? they were telling me food, medicines, what every human wants especially in a war zone and, secondly, no more bombs, no more shelling. so what comes first is what they asked, and what did they ask? immediate access to the besieged areas. so we will test it. that means tracks of food. the other good thing about what has been happening yest
