i'm still going to welcome to the program the united nations security council called an emergency meeting after russia fired on and seized three ukrainian ships off the crimean peninsula ukrainian president petro poroshenko has demanded the immediate release of the crew on the vessels and he's calling on parliament to approve martial law the clash took place in the narrow cash straight between russia and crimea a point of international tension since russia annexed the region four years ago. this video has been circulating online since it was released on sunday. taken from on board a russian military ship swearing and shouting had be heard as well as the command to stay the course directly towards ukrainian tugboat. the russian ship rams the ukrainian boat head on. with. the incident escalated further

a russian tanker blocked a tight underpass between the black sea and the sea of us of a vital trade route for ukraine it was later announced that the russian coastguard had shot at three ukrainian ships the ships were seized by russia with authorities saying the boats had illegally entered russian waters but the ukrainian navy says it had announced the ship's transit in advance. in kiev ukrainian president petro poroshenko called on parliament to introduce martial law. this doesn't mean we are declaring war. ukraine is not planning for a war with anyone it is implemented solely to protect ukrainian land our territory territorial integrity and sovereignty of. russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov accused ukraine of deliberate provocation we do the principles of the international law were violated including the united nations charter and other legal instruments that require all states to respect the sovereignty of another state school moscow

views the water surrounding crimea as russian territory the united nations however views russian annexation of crimea as an illegal act tried to russia i'm sure crying then every show in is in moscow david stern is in kiev welcome both standing with you. has signed the degree to introduce martial law what does he hope to achieve with this. well it should be said that he signed the decree but it still is a major hurdle to overcome and nothing has to be voted on by parliament and apparently the talks over this are are very intense the details about the decree and what mr partition goes would like to accomplish with this are just now coming out and what was published on the parliament the parliament a website was an addendum which said it which gave the government of mr parr shank of the rights the right if they felt it was necessary to limits. very key freedoms

of movement of expression of assembly of thought and even of education now these are not necessarily limitations per se but it as i say gives the government the right if they see this necessary i've spoken to some reformist parliamentarians and they say they're going to vote against the decree in its present form and they say there are some very there are talks are ongoing what they would like in particular is to get rid of this part they would like to also shorten the time span of the decree from sixty to thirty days and also importantly the decree for cease possibly postponement postponement of presidential elections to take place that are supposed to take place in march of next year they want to see the elections go forward as planned i mean while i'm going to show it in moscow what news of the ship's crew any chance of them being released. well i think it's very unlikely that russia will comply in the near future with ukrainian demands to

release the ship and the crew after all from the russian point of view what they did capturing the vessel and the crew was absolutely legal we've heard from the commissioner for human rights here in russia who said that twenty four people were arrested and that several members of the crew were being questioned at the moment and that they were also being treated medically at the moment in russia and judging from russia's reaction that's it seems unlikely that they'll comply as they said russia said that the ukrainian actions were a provocation and need to be scoffed the kremlin spokesperson today called ukraine's actions an invasion by foreign military vessels you have to understand that russia sees the sea as russian waters since they add next the crimean peninsula from ukraine in two thousand and fourteen which of course ukraine doesn't accept and from the russian side though it means that everything that they've been

doing has been legal they say according to russian law and international law so david stern gives the big picture what appears biggest concerns over this russian action. well there are a number of concerns as you can imagine as well as the domestic situation that i just described but one of the biggest concerns is that russia is trying to cut off ukrainian access to the as of c.n.n. well and to its its territory and the as i've see in particular the port of martyr you will this is a major port this would the loss if it were to be cut off or to be blockaded it would be a huge commercial blow to ukraine as well as the eastern part of the country where this fighting is continuing between the russian backed rebels and the ukrainian government and there's also the concern of course that this is a significant escalation and perhaps even widening of the conflict that it's now moving into the waters and perhaps this may see even what an even more intense war

than what we've been seeing up until now because as i say the war is still continuing it is not a frozen conflict. in care fact here for now and really show in the moscow thank you let's take a look now at some of the other stories making news around the world india has been marking the tenth anniversary of the moon by terrorist attacks that killed more than one hundred sixty people events were held across the city and some of the sites of the three day tack he blames the assault on the pakistani praised the militant group lashkar e tayyiba. rescuer says it will step up security at its border with the united states after a peaceful protest that descended into chaos u.s. guards of five gas into the mexican town of t. wanted to stop migrants breaching the border it's completed by dozens of arrests. united arab emirates has pardoned a british academic who was jailed on spying charges despite policing a videotape which claimed to show researcher matthew had just confessing his

rejected that counsel of despair and says about negotiation a deal that works for the u.k. and the e.u. one that delivers on the result of the referendum on such as on calls for a prosperous future while maintaining a close relationship with our friends and neighbors. but her victory could be short lived may must now sell the plan to a divided british parliament so far she doesn't have a majority to pass it and some m.p.'s from her own party have vowed to vote against it the european union has warned rebellious lawmakers in westminster that there is no other alternative but i'm inviting goes to have to work if i just did in the house of commons to think this inference aeration this is the best deal possible for britain this is the best impossible for europe this is the only didn't post the only deal. possible. may now faces

a make or break vote that will again test her resilience she will tour the u.k. in a charm offensive aimed at getting support for her deal with brussels. straight to london where we don't they don't because mass welcome back it so theresa may clearly has a mountain to climb in addition have any cause for optimism. not that much at this stage she knows that she still has a bunch of work ahead of she's going to go and try and convince the public there is a new acronym it's called it's b.o.o.b. you put those board of bricks it and she's banking on the fact that a lot of people don't really want to hear that much about bricks and every day and they want a prime minister to just get on with the job i mean this is a stick at the moment but she also knows that there are m.p.'s in the house of

parliament here. behind me where they are still very very skeptical and they think ok maybe people don't really want to listen but it's such a momentous decision and it's something that goes really to the core of many m.p.'s beliefs of what is good for the country that i'm not sure that many of them will be persuaded just to get on just to get it out of the way so we have the e.u. commission president john claude young saying that this is the only deal possible so from a british perspective does that mean it's this deal or no deal. i think he also said that in order to help three's a mate to get this deal through parliament from any you can a spectacle of cause they don't want to get on for many more months just to new renegotiate this withdrawal deal but we also know that m.p.'s are really plotting there are some within reason mazed conservative party who see this deal as dangerous and some of them even though they want bricks and have said well it's

really worse than staying in the e.u. so they are plotting to get even chop a deal and and maybe also have no deal this is to raise it may strum cause you know start a lot of m.p.'s don't want to crash out of the un stand here at the end of march next year and and fall into the habit so to speak so that's had trump card she says this is the ideal no deal but then there are other companies who think well maybe they can just about manage to get a second referendum and try and reverse the decision or get a general election and in the case of the labor party so there's a lot going on here at the moment in westminster i buggered my ass in london thank you. well to sports a bonus league or high flyers gladbach a back in second place they're only going to sleep attain two of one every home game this season however with their latest victims despite putting up an early
