home russian of servers in response to the poisoning of a former double agent in britain an attack which london has blamed on moscow the measures come after some two dozen countries including the us and many e.u. members expelled russian diplomats in solidarity with britain russian foreign minister sergey lavrov has accused washington of using colossal blackmail relations between the western alliance nato and moscow where already strained over russia's annexation of crimea as well as its involvement in ukraine syria nato secretary general backed delivered this statement a short while ago that brawled strong coordinated international response and i support all dumped response nato is unified in taking further steps this sounds a clear message to russia that there are costs and consequences for it's
4:03 pm
unacceptable and dangers of behavior and it follows russia as a lack of constructive response to what happened in seoul spirit our actions reflect a serious security concerns expressed by all our allies on our part of the cordon it that international effort to respond to russia will spearhead of yours they are proportionate on in line with our legal obligations. nato secretary general there u.n. stoltenberg announcing nato has response to what britain says was russia's involvement in a poisoning in britain let's go straight over to russia's rather to our brussels headquarters of brussels nato headquarters where our correspondent teri schultz is standing by for us terry tell us more about what u.n. stoltenberg had to say in this announcement today. hi
4:04 pm
terry what secretary-general stolzenberg said is that seven diplomats in the russian mission to nato will be kicked out of the country that means their accreditation will be withdrawn and belgium will be asked to withdraw their right to live here three other people will have their accreditation procedures suspended which means they will not be coming to nato to join the russian mission the other thing they did was downsize the russian embassy here at nato the russian mission by ten people to a maximum of twenty this is something that's been done before after the annexation of crimea nato also kicked out a number of russian diplomats and told russia that they would have to downsize from fifty to thirty people so a third of those people will now be gone as well he says this is necessary to show russia as you heard there that there is a cost for its behavior ok well obviously nato is trying to deliver a message here what impact is this development likely to have on relations between
4:05 pm
nato and russia. then osman has just been made in the last few minutes so we're not sure exactly what moscow will say but there are a couple of things that could happen moscow could decide that it will no longer discuss a nato russia council meeting which is supposed to be upcoming that's the format by which nato discusses things with russia relations at a high level have been suspended no business as usual so this nato russia council is pretty important it's the only way that nato and russia formally speak we don't yet know if moscow is willing to continue discussions about scheduling that meeting it also and this is something that was in the works already it may decide that it doesn't want to send an ambassador back to nato the previous ambassador has already left and nato was anticipating getting another one but russia may say we simply don't even want to be at nato at a high level so we'll be waiting to see what moscow says but in any case if a new ambassador does come to the nato mission he or she will have far fewer staff
4:06 pm
members to support him doesn't end here terry i mean many people looking at this and wondering well wow when is this going to stop it just keeps escalating is the conflict likely to actually get worse in the coming days and weeks. as far as nato goes there are not nato diplomats in moscow so it will be hard for russia to have any tit for tat expulsions against nato but of course i expect that we will see western diplomats kicked out of kicked out of russia probably from the e.u. missions on the other countries that have expelled diplomats from from their own capitals and consulates again if we also may see that russia draws back conversation with nato with other capitals and cuts off what cooperation there is there are some issues that are important to nato with russia there have been talks on cooperating in afghanistan for example that something that has has often been held up as as a place for this works there have been accusations in in recent weeks that that
4:07 pm
moscow is arming the taliban so even that was sort of going downhill and that something that stills and brought up that this is part of a long pattern of behavior that the west has been dissatisfied with has found dangerous from the kremlin and he brought up more than once that that the poisoning in solsbury is not the only reason that these measures are being taken now are there any if efforts underway terry to deescalate this crisis to maybe restore some trust between russia and the west. i would guess trust is a long way off at the moment but as far is as dialogue secretary general stolzenberg did mention more than once in this brief press point we just had with him that he looks forward to discussing with moscow the things that are on the table at the nato russia council and for nato what remains at the top of that list is always crimea that crimea needs to be given back to ukraine that russian troops
4:08 pm
need to get out of the donbass region that's always the first item on the agenda here so with the poisoning added to a long list of behavior that includes a buzzing of nato air space that includes dangerous behavior against nato installations on ships in the sea this would just be one more i'm afraid in the list of complaints not necessarily in a list of items that are likely to see fruitful conversation but again this is just happened within the last few minutes so we'll be watching moscow for reaction terry thank you so much for bringing us up to date as teri schultz there talking to us from nato headquarters in brussels and staying in russia on an unrelated story in russian media say forty one children were killed in the massive fire at a shopping center in siberia the official total death toll now stands at sixty four russian president vladimir putin visited the scene today and declared a national day of mourning on wednesday he said criminal negligence was to blame

4:34 pm
operates around the clock so that no one else gets lost we don't want mama story to repeat itself. all the volunteers feel helping is not a choice it's a moment cation they'll continue to risk arrest until prince finds a way to ensure the safety of these refugees. seven one that's the painful scoreline seared into the consciousness of every brazilian football fan but memories of that holmes rushing by germany in the two thousand and fourteen world cup semifinals may fade tonight that's if brazil can beat you walk in live side in a friendly match here in berlin or met herman joins us now from d.w. sports so how big is this game for brazil oh it's huge i mean brazil the last time that they lost a big match at home in a world cup which was back in one nine hundred fifty they talked about it for about sixty four years afterwards so that we talked about that seven one for
4:35 pm
a very long time yet. ok so we've got some something coming up for us so that's remind ourselves just exactly what that seven one humbling for brazil really meant for them. well ours on to july eighth two thousand and fourteen i. nation weeks. i. dream of a whole new world title don't. you know that i'm actually happy that we have this game because i don't want to take the ghost of a seven month defeat to the world cup. they keep before. it's. replacing coach louis philippe scolari with carlos don't go after the debacle didn't change things for the next which in two thousand and sixteen did following the appointment of chichen brazil have won fourteen games out of eighteen losing
4:36 pm
just once the joy and passion. team knows what he's doing but see the knots why brazil won their qualifying group convincingly and have developed as a team. that's why i think he can give this team a clear identity. someone shot from. the trauma of two thousand and fourteen is a mortal eyes nick up about the beach. but so too will the hopes of the street artists will come when russia will go some way to raising that seven months goal line from the brazilian collective memory. about her and from that every sport so with us here matt thirty seven one score live from the twenty fourteen world cup i mean that is obviously something that traumatized the brazilians but this game tonight in berlin is about more than just yeah absolutely i mean usually international friendlies are always criticized for having nothing at
4:37 pm
stake tonight something really is it say that is national pride which you can't really underestimate with it seems like brazil which means so much to that nation and it also means that they want to go to germany to just oberlin tonight and improve their bona fide. i mean brazil along with a handful of other teams like spain like france and yes germany expect to go to this tournament in russia with the belief that they can win it and beating the defending champs germany on home soil with a really long way towards laying down a marker towards that i mean germany this is really a horse of a very different color not much at all is riding on the results of this match for germany tonight but really a lot has its stake for some of the players who are participating in this match who may or may not be included in your world cup squad we're going to hear in this report coming up that tonight is going to be the french players really last chance to make a splash. the prospect of
4:38 pm
a record equalling result hasn't persuaded you are king loves to play it safe in stark contrast to the full strength squad he chose for friday's clash against spain the germany coach will test a string of second tier players in the capital. a win or a draw against brazil will see the world champions much the un beaten run of twenty three games set under you in one nine hundred eighty. germany will start with several key players among them our country. music there's ill one thomas miller. but one stalwart was desperate to start the game. berliner jacqueline boyd saying. no. it's something very special for me as a child i dreamt of playing in the olympic stadium against brazil. even though it's just a friendly match it still means a lot to me because it's here in my hometown and i'm delighted to be playing that
4:39 pm
game. despite their experimental line up germany will be confident they could make history against the brazil side who are missing superstar forward neymar and to us painful memories of the two sites last meeting still fresh in their minds. so at this game is obviously very very important for brazil but it's also important for for germany to germany has a world cup title to defend what will. be. yogi nerves strategy be at this in this game tonight a strategy is to try out some some french players i mean this is the b. team tonight i mean it's a pretty dazzling b. team however has got guys like if i do know one and we were assigned i who are starters for one of the best premier league sides of all time at manchester city you know gretzky who lit up germany's confederations cup campaign last summer there are still a few guys who really need a good game tonight in order to really put the finishing touches on their case to
4:40 pm
be in the trip to russia i mean guys like lost in the and. wagner couple of strikers who are late bloomers who have never made it to a major tournament with germany they could probably use a goal or two mathias ginter needs to prove his case why should take him as a fifth choice center back and modern platen harsh who is sort of a back up left back known for his free kick prowess probably needs to show that he can hit a good dead ball on the big stage in order to justify his going to russia might help however that he is ahead to berlin players or he'll least be playing in his home stadium and feel comfortable in that respect so briefly how do you see all this playing out and tonight i mean not just the game between the between germany and brazil but also some of the other friendlies what sort of scorers they will save not well considering the sort of you know desire deficit that germany might be facing tonight i think brazil might sneak a result here i think it to one result for brazil might be likely russia they are probably likely to take another one on the chin tonight at home against france they're probably over be overmatched in that one england are at home to italy which
4:41 pm
is another interesting encounter considering england are sort of rounding into form as the tournaments coming up and italy have nothing to play for other than having their kids get a little seasoning i think italy should be probably not really going to do too much ok matt herman from did it was for us thanks so much. sad news from the world of sailing a british yachtsman who was washed overboard during a volvo ocean race on monday is now presumed lost at sea britain john fisher fell from the state's case scallywag boat more than two thousand kilometers west of cape horn on the tip of south america the search for the sailor is being hampered by a poor weather. you're watching the news still to come. jane goodall and the chimps she revolutionized the way we view humankind's close relatives and we'll take a look at a new documentary that shows the problem just in a new line. child labor it seems is on the rise again
