12:06 am
natasha butler and parents. thank you very much. indeed. well, united states has also condemned incident and demanded an international investigation. this was a shocking act. diverting a flight between 2 member states for the apparent purpose of arresting a journalist a constitute the brazen a front to international peace and security. by the regime, we demand an immediate, international, transparent, and credit credit, credible investigation of this incident. we are in touch with a range of partners bilaterally and through multilateral channels, from nato, the o. c u. n. you and others. alina crisco is originally from valor, is now works as the director of the globe sick policies yuton savant, can think tank focused on european and transatlantic relations and security. shaun's us by skype from breakfast lava in savannah. thank you so much for being with us. what are your reaction to the, to the measures that the us nouns,
12:07 am
particularly in relation to airlines and the, the band on over flying by region. so the european union had no other choice but to respond to the situation, as it was said in a very adventurous precedence. the situation has to be seen into full perspective. on the one hand, the european union absolutely had to react to the ground and of the aeroplane that indentured to the safety of all passengers on board, including the passengers. that's where europe and union citizens. and by doing that, the luca shank of government changed the situation and made it to a situation where it international safety was a stake. but also it should be looked at the broad, the development in the country. over the past month. the situation has been to see race in the up of the look, chunk of government has been cracking down on any signs of the descent in the country. so this, the rest of the opposition paper was only one of the episodes in there much broader
12:08 am
story. i personally am not a big supporter of the by of the band in applied to in from bella as it also potentially, inventor is the tri city, the in population. and potentially might create complications for people to leave the country. if such situation arises in terms of incident itself, how much of a chilling effect would it have on the opposition to see that people can be picked up in this way? by the better is government already said they have in this case anyway? definitely the lucas i'm because message is pretty transparent and straightforward . i'm going to get so you're going to get, you know, doesn't matter where you are. no european union or other country is going to protect you against myself. definitely. a lot of people are cared and intimidated by this message and not only the position that is currently abroad. it's even more intimidating for the people who are still inside the country. as they know that there is no bucket of protection between them and the government at the moment.
12:09 am
what's your view on russia's role in all of this? i mean politicians have suggested that they might have a role, but they're not. they're not specifically pointing the finger at russia the stage. it is very clear what role has the rush of explaining the situation if any, there has been report that several people who flew from athens to the news didn't board the plane in men's to continue the flights with the owners to answer 3 of them for it with the russian passport, but their identity has not been revealed yet. speculations are they might be associated with the russian security forces. but again, this is an unconfirmed piece of information. so it's very difficult to say with clarity. what exactly is the role rush place? it might be become more clever as we'll learn more details about the situation. what about the suggestion that a better russian security services might have also been on the plane? is it surprising that they would be able to kind of be out in about boarding flights and other european countries?
12:10 am
this is how security services or credit not only in the bill or russian state, but also by other countries. they do by definition rolled around to other countries . so the before board and applied flights with the journalist himself reported that he noticed suspicious activity in suspicious people who took interest in him in grace. which also explains how they knew for sure that he was on board the fly. and whereas she was heading. thank you very much indeed for joining us. chris, go, thank you. thank you for his a physical crisis is unfolding and molly, the military has arrested the president prime minister and defense minister. and i believe to been taken to a military base in cathy outside the capital of the government, underwent to cabinet re shuffle on monday, excluding 2 members of the military who seized power just 9 months ago. one of the cisco technical hackers on the phone from deca, neighboring cynical,
