5:33 am
story began the day that usually a med surg a reporter got off the head of the athletics federations medical department prescribed to a doping program. to go after gaining claridge. that upset that the doctor wasn't that's because it's cathartic but if it supports me and i've got a lot of insubordinate. to find out um you for all but mother me a lot of us to. this point in time and that you just. need to stage a whole new. class that's just what them the covert. how do. you not go there bill stuart you know. that the storm new governor your own go ideas don't save in the word of what it is must see that zone go justin's that he bore you a little bit. too of the gold medal winners of the london olympic games if you
5:34 am
athletes tested positive it was because the anti doping agency in moscow were themselves corrupt. and that resignation a. bit about us is a slow it's a move it is just an instant don't invite us year after machine you must give them you got help to go up only because. i guess it's about what was more but they still are on your door when you go in you boys at the process they also which the. studio manya but i'm to be with the blanket was of an accord on the piece a moment problem the new so must get that number probably but so once a duchess be spoken that what they've seen as a place where you are yeah i'm disallowing them are probably bosley it ends up with i guess most probably no names could hit it over. didn't do you did you did while competing yulia met retiling her future husband on
5:35 am
a second date she broached the issue of doping. it's. i. just. don't think are you applying out. because it the bottom of it and that to do this consider. the sanctity of the most of silk is condition. for the last six percent. sleep matches three children that's what he has recorded over so there's no need for for most of the shop or a great deal for those i think i started with that to the sunni dr billy. and then he up us why don't you promote child. the man who said nothing was we are just love scene of one of the two directors the died under suspicious circumstances.
5:36 am
but what were the russian athletes doing to escape checks a brought. the result come on signal i knew. dark day on usenet jan and design is good neither is the most damned that will come to light. but this is considered to get a sentiment is plentiful is that money you know the detection methods are always changing and the dates how long. some substances can be detected always getting shorter but again usually the directors of the labs are the first ones to receive this information so that in a country like russia they may have to share this information because the main goal is not to catch their peers the main goal is to help people in gold medals.
5:37 am
the russian anti doping agency disputes the accusations. vitali he has refused to cooperate with us on this matter. and for us it's a pity if you want to fight against doping in sport you should not only give these bold statements publicly it's not enough just to you know appear in the screen and say everyone is corrupted facts and presumptions that what we need to have in order to establish an underdog in the world is. the evidence was collected by hi oh. yes if you have a as a tradition yesterday in your phone we told you just up an offer to the guy in titan and video and audio for. a given you bought a not made a one in you know not on titles and strove. you know in. your
5:38 am
view yahtzee an estate so good to see as he did up i know don was of the times to this konami not. beleaguer a common. store being in opposition i took to the co-op tired. or maybe tina as my reading was dusty's is imminent is probably and there's always are spots to minister to was disinvited because. he said that's all it was his form of good look almost an instruction to the equivalent. of the. well but the let me die you see but i couldn't conceive in my books in the limo for a month i was. cruelly should be moved to the next it also. leaves it that it is a sore spot you people. you know. look past me good look gaunt don't at all good to me that.
5:39 am
following vitaly unions revelations want i began investigating russia. meanwhile julia hopes to rediscover her best form. and see what begin to guess at worse nor so different understanding that there was this in me of a subtle shift but. i suggest she is nice to you on each when you put in my i gave you good at least three up and you might still. stay to get divorced it seems that over thirty years what. do you think that they take. nothing of. that but if. you were.
5:40 am
to take part in international competition she first needs to find a host country to accept into their team. but go to closing it was the but it wouldn't fix that among it just follow get that from my store up and get to the covert status to bring up to the head you have to get the question. which country would be dead if i russia and adopt yulia. russia however does not have the monopoly on doping every year worldwide three thousand athletes test positive for doping among the sports in which cheating has been found to be the most prevalent in recent years our bodybuilding athletics baseball american football weightlifting boxing wrestling cycling ice hockey rugby swimming and basketball power and insurance sports are not the only concerns. could use book only all novel is
5:41 am
a specific make book if you didn't. saw that it. would board put it in his pool and it's all of it is. more all now but the move is rather to nice and exposure that he needs me all could do is rather than the six it all but. much of skittishness of all don't do it thank you said look they stood it to me not in this book it's promoted. as a sport that relies on technique football would seem to be above doping scandals and yet it has been tainted by much rigging and corruption. it's very true and over the during the two thousand and fourteen world cup in brazil seven hundred thirty six players were tested as shown in this free for promotional video. once again the tests are financed and carried out by the federation that organizes the event do you think that those of the like in other words or what is your opinion is more
5:42 am
difficult than football mark does the run. of your brand in ireland. good luck this quarter was. no footballer tested positive in rio a satisfactory result of a free for. all. the last. case we had was during the one nine hundred ninety four when the united states. there is a very clear commitment to make the fifa competitions free. despite this show of toughness to the leaders of world football really provide the necessary means to catch cheats in one thousand nine hundred fifty four had all the samples destroyed after the world cup thus avoiding any subsequent unmasking of drug cheats in two thousand and six no blood samples were taken in two thousand and
5:43 am
fourteen the laboratory that tested the samples was in those over twelve hours away from rio after twelve hours tiny doses of a no longer detectable in urine samples so is the myth of clean football to be believed retired player right world champion in one thousand nine hundred four is skeptical. overweight so. she was. really my origins vital to those. sports which is your core truly strange. but here's a. look at as a future boy as he was in jeopardy that is a. badge moves with my i was there with my shorty there was that they may perceive him as mass of muscle muscle. being. ripped out of some fused and.
5:44 am
if we witnessed this that fact. of the. world what other witnesses peter was when most of it. when i mean to. see a wish to grab his issue at first i want to know. was only a move toward the minimum is more. yeah we've distributed or ors and you're closer to. it watch the video of it you know what in my arm i see my eyes fickling to my eyes my eyes up without the ha ha ha ha ha oh. i mean because it was part of what i think initially. i wanted to. i pop your brain gun. law. ah i just finished a book which my doc had the night i did twitter all still could not dothraki. these

parts and sweet. little budget i ate eggs or forbode call early had made the explaining why they keep a saw so maybe you'll see cereal could nationalise mortality do it but do you plan to do that they must shut you feel cool because it will be going to your quilt did you ever take banned substances to enhance your cycling performance yes he just wouldn't do as the people seem to do by the beagle with the name of what's on your ball kinetic and even when you don't do so without much but to start. with i used. to wade in nicky minaj accountability most sophisticated devices in the official welcome to geneva for the special one the independent commission press conference we have found to cover up speed film destruction of samples in the fortress payments of money in order to conceal the doping test so it's worse than we thought

5:49 am
judges have overturned the landmark war crimes conviction a former congolese vice president. for killed and hundreds injured as palestinians protest against the girls aboard it despite israeli warnings to stay away. the tributes to u.s. celebrity chef. who took his own life at a hotel in france. and i'm. here with. seals a spot in the french open final as he looks to seal a record extending eleventh run against time to. say than canadian prime minister justin trudeau has officially welcomed twelve leaders to what's expected to be a tense g. seven summit in quebec the meeting has been held in the united states is looking increasingly isolated from its allies on a number of fronts the two day meeting is expected to have shadowed by
5:50 am
a potential trade war of the u.s. president will trump place tariffs on steel and i like many imports trump also broke ranks with most of his allies by calling for russia to be part of the g. seven. well trump is expected to face considerable pressure from the leaders of the other six countries over his decision to impose those metal tariffs and before leaving for the summit he told reporters he would straighten it all out we have massive trade. with almost every. great idea and i'll tell you what i do it won't even be home. in the end. they are. like well we thought if you win the war three they don't mention the fact that they have raised barriers against our farmers they don't mention the fact that almost three hundred percent of what are all straight south we'll all be in love again.
5:51 am
well protesters have been back on the streets of quebec city over one hundred kilometers away from the g seven and thousands of police in riot gear have been deployed to prevent any violence let's go live now to join hundred new study by in quebec city. pretty much talk if you like it appears to be sweetness and light on the surface anyway. well it's corny old bad is the word that was used by the canadian by one of the canadian officials here in a news conference earlier today it was not really a positive word the alternative is really. i don't know negative and to social so to describe it is core to you i think explains what's going on here these are like schoolchildren who have said nasty things about each other in social media and then meet up at the schoolyard exhibit these guys are diplomats so they smile and grin but there is real offense taken here by the other finance ministers and the other world leaders who are here at the u.s.
5:52 am
tariffs they believe that has set off a trade war horse candidate mexico and european countries have all retaliated and so everybody is concerned this could stop the global expansion that this whole meeting was supposed to be celebrating so trump is very much isolated he does say that he hopes they'll all be on the same page but it's not even clear that in the end he's going to sign on to any agreement that they all come to so we're still waiting to see the president with justin trudeau we saw them greet each other earlier this morning trudeau was with his wife and smiled they shook hands very orderly. but i'm waiting to hear what the two actually have to say to each other because before this trump we're sending out tweets complaining about i can't it is trade practice about european trade practices in just contro and manual mccrone of france were both complaining about the u.s. and then trump has said he wants to push farther he wants to come here and argue

about the barriers to the u.s. of trade practices from canada and europe while they want to push him back on the tariffs on aluminum and steel so i'm interested to see what's going to happen in this meeting coming up john i think it's a justin trudeau and donald trump would be means you have been talking as well as you were talking about how usually they sign a statement all the lead is sign a statement at the end of these kind of as you mentioned that perhaps that might happen because donald trump is talking about leaving we're actually looking at live pictures right now of justin trudeau the canadian prime minister and donald trump. suggest speaking and then if we can listen in and what's going on let's have a listen and see what's happening working on cutting tariffs and making it all very fair for both countries and we've made a lot of progress today we'll see how it all works out but we've made a lot of progress it could be that nafta will be a different form it could be with canada with mexico one on one much simpler
5:54 am
agreement much easier to do i think better for both countries but we're talking about that among other things but the relationship is probably better as good or better than it's ever been. and i think we'll get to something very beneficial to canada and to the united states next thank you very much yes yes see what we did we did discuss we did. see you guys i think what our joint session. you know you could already be in seclusion i think. ok we'll just we'll pull back out about that says donald trump and justin trudeau the canadian canadian prime minister addressing the assembled media ahead of the meetings they've had a short chat is john across when it was just mentioning and john that he was saying donald trump was saying the relationship is as good or better than it's ever been which given that the tweet seeing the flurry of tweeting that was going on before
5:55 am
it's hard to believe. it is hard to believe but it's not hard to believe that he would say that it so it was a remarkably short polite and substance free statement that we didn't hear anything about any resolution of the trade tariffs the u.s. has has instituted and we didn't hear about any complaints that trump has about the trade barriers other nations have and we haven't heard whether he was going to sign that agreement in the end and that's significant because usually this is this is a formality usually everybody agrees on all the principles and they all signed their names to it at the end of trump is now leaving early on saturday so he might not even be there when that happens and emanuel mccrone the president of france has said on twitter yesterday it's fine if just six countries signed that but in fact that would be a show of disunity which i think is a nice way to describe what's going on here right now all right john i will see how
5:56 am
it all progress is as time goes on don't have the time being thanks very much while for the g. seven trump will fly to singapore for his summits with the north korean leader kim jong un all diplomatic at james bays is that to cover the meeting and he sent this update with the latest details. we now know that the two leaders will be here in singapore for longer than we do regionally been led to believe chairman kim will be arriving on sunday about a six hour journey we think from north korea in his aging russian plane will be about twice the length of time for president trump and of course the u.s. president is coming straight from another summit we assume he won't have much time to prepare as he's attending the g. seven summit and very difficult discussions there with his allies of course the president says he doesn't need to prepare he says he's prepared preparing for this summit for all his life but there are those including some of the u.s. allies who while welcoming this summit as much better than talking about military

options they are concerned that the president is perhaps not as knowledgeable about the issues of north korea and nuclear weapons as the north korean leader who clearly knows these issues intimately having lived with them and having been bred as a child to be the leader of his country. the international criminal court has overturned the war crimes conviction of jumpier bemba the former vice president of the democratic republic of congo a majority of judges found that could not be held responsible for the horrific acts of his militia which he sent into neighboring central african republic in two thousand and two he said that judges in bender's trial failed to consider his efforts to stop crimes taking place and hand as more. from the moment well crimes allegations were liberal to gainst him jumpy have been banned sisted he had done nothing wrong he maintained that stance even in two thousand and sixteen when
