Turnbull in Turkey for G20 summit amid tight security

Leaders of the 20 major economies (G-20), including the USA, China, Japan, Russia, Canada, Australia and Brazil, will discuss climate change and global cooperation to unearth black money, but the talks are set to be dominated by the attacks in Paris and the war in Syria, official sources said.

“We have offered all assistance to the French authorities and we stand in solidarity with the French people in condemning these horrific and devastating attacks”, she said. We are told that the intelligence agencies have about 450 people under surveillance. The meeting agreed on the need to convene Syrian government and opposition representatives in formal negotiations under United Nations auspices as soon as possible, with a target date of January 1, as part of a transition process to inclusive governance, a new constitution and free and fair elections under UN supervision within 18 months.

Turnbull spoke from Turkey where the G20 is due to begin on Sunday (November 15), at the same time the French flag was flown on top of Sydney’s Harbour Bridge as a symbol of Australian support for the French people.

“I certainly want to reassure Australians that we have ever vigilant and highly professional police and emergency services”. But we want them to join our team.

“It’s too early for us to be confirming any particular numbers”, Ms Bishop said.

That comment is still true but not by chance.

“We’ll always be alert to threats as they develop”. “Attacks in this environment are likely to happen in the future but Australians can be assured we have the best security agencies”, he said. At least 18 people were killed, with at least 15 people killed at the Bataclan concert hall in central Paris, only around 200 metres from the former offices of Charlie Hebdo which were attacked by jihadists in January.

Abe also supported the recent passage of a USA naval ship within a zone Beijing claims near a newly created artificial island, citing the need to protect freedom of navigation, according to Seko.
