international news live from moscow this is on sea with me. thanks for joining us abraham to dash of a young chechen man who was killed while being questioned by the f.b.i. in may have been shot in the bike of the head while lying face down on the ground so it's a private investigators hired to study the case it were his father's counseling the uas where he says legal action to see his son's killers punished she's a citric and i must be grieving father. a quaint residential neighborhood in florida and a father who can't hold back his tears. nothing will bring me peace as long as i live from the moment it happened i haven't been able to forget about it even for a second barely containing his grief. takes a moment several times during our interview. a few days ago he arrived in the u.s.
9:02 am
from russia to seek answers for his son in brigham's tragic death this is the entrance into the condo where twenty seven year old lived minutes away from disney world it was here that on may twenty second after reportedly being questioned by officials for hours he was shot and killed by the f.b.i. under circumstances most of which remain murky. from reminiscing about ibrahim as a child who was very much into sports. to looking through graphic images that a parent should never get to see images that will haunt him for the rest of his life which four or five shots right into the heart i've never seen things like this even in the movies not in the u.s. not in russia nowhere. such violence from law enforcement nowhere have i seen anything like this to me earlier in the morning father's on a mission to uncover the truth behind the f.b.i.'s killing of his son and he's even
9:03 am
willing to say. this but i want justice honestly because an unprecedented intentional murder of my son took place. ibrahim came to the u.s. in two thousand and eight to study english and ended up staying to pursue a career in martial arts this spring he was questioned in connection with a triple homicide in massachusetts as well as the boston marathon bombings as officials believe the chechen young man had been friends with the deceased suspect a milan sir. the father says the only connection his son had to the tsar knives was a chechen background that had once promised. them to exchange phone numbers were given received multiple fatal gunshots to the heart and head during the night of the questioning the f.b.i. claimed a violent confrontation took place but has been blocking autopsy results from going public some reports suggested breggin was armed with a knife others a broomstick but there are also claims that he was not armed at all demands from
9:04 am
the american civil liberties union and the council on american islamic relations for florida authorities to hold an investigation were declined while the f.b.i. claims to be conducting an inquiry of its own as with now they would never be able to prove his guilt in anything but because they killed him if they kept him alive tried him that would be a whole different story. showing us the postcards from american sending condolences to his family he hopes those behind his son's killing would show some heart as well . maybe the f.b.i. will have some kind of guilt resurface and it meant that they committed this fatal mistake for several years prior to his death ibrahim was not able to leave the u.s. while waiting to be granted a green card he eventually received permanent residence status and had plans to visit home on may twenty fourth but he died two days earlier. i'll never get tired i'll do what i can i'm just not able to leave this. field and
9:05 am
r.t. orlando florida. and ahead for you in the program reports of fresh clashes in cairo local throw rocks at supporters of mohamed morsy trying to march from the interior ministry and go to live reports coming up in a few minutes. it seems dark clouds are gathering of the relations between the u.k. and spain london is considering unprecedented legal action over madrid's lengthy tracks at the border into the british territory of gibraltar downing street claims that politically motivated royal navy warships are also expected to drop by this trade although it's claimed all share jeweled exercises. explain. it all started with spain saying that it really wants to protect its interests mainly fishing interests as this whole spat this whole story was sparked by your brother's building of an artificial reef which spain claims is destroying fishing in the area
9:06 am
and therefore it had imposed the border checks on those going to one from a gibraltar a british held territory of therefore causing a lot of delays and right now the rhetoric is escalating between britain and spain over the matter britain is threatening e.u. legal action over spain see what it says it's a politically motivated move and london mayor boris johnson actually said that it is quote unquote tantamount to a blockade even used particularly harsh words saying quote i hope one way or another we will shortly prior spanish hands off the throat of our colony end quote and also like and be actions of the spanish government to the franco park the time of military dictatorship favorite sport as reported by the spanish press is a considering escalating this to the level of the united nations even floating around the idea of spain and argentina presenting a united front over gibraltar and the falkland islands are clearly as britain boris johnson in particular is criticizing spade by raising be
9:07 am
a franco era you have spain you're highlighting what critics would really see as britain's colonial behavior or habits and now all of this is happening as thousands of royal navy personnel have already set sail for the mediterranean in what the ministry of defense has insisted it is a long scheduled a training exercise well long scheduled or not it seems the timing is not lost on the london mayor boris johnson as he said it quote the deployment should send a clear signal to the spanish it seems that the spot is continuing to go on. let's not discount the story with a contributor returns it is joining us now live from london mr townsend welcome to our two great to see you as always sounds like the cat has triggered has chosen the language of threats against spain why. yes warships are on their way i'm going to studio in
9:08 am
a boat i hope the naval war between spain and britain doesn't start in the next couple of minutes the questions being raised here by the royal navy are do even have an a.v. it's only a couple of weeks of the ark royal has been scrapped for razor blades and to make old cans and here are three warships set off for gibraltar harbor as a show of strength although some experts saying this was a shed you'll stop of britain's warships in any case but of course we know that sign of naval force is theoretically supposed to help the hand of the british ambassador to spain when he talks to the spanish government incidentally he's the state broadcaster here the b.b.c.'s main present just brother mr paxman and the talks are going on but of course there are other serious issues related to tax because gibraltar is a tax haven. but the way understand that gibraltar is a british territory and london is of course expected to protect the rights of the
9:09 am
people living there isnt it. that's right and gibraltar's growth around eight percent g.d.p. shows it's doing a little bit better quite a lot better than the economies of britain or spain that's because it's fifteen percent of its g.d.p. comes from online gambling it's not even part of the european union customs union and thousands of companies register their fake registrations in effect to avoid taxes it's like and some people comment is like some sort of gangster island which britain wants to protect for itself of course other people are saying that both of mariano rajoy. and his government ministers they want to avoid they want to create a distraction from the disastrous economy that now exists in spain as he continues policies a bit like britain's extreme austerity sixty percent youth unemployment of course in spain and the i.m.f. even saying that's going to last some time so this is
9:10 am
a kind of diversion but i think one critical thing here certainly from the military perspective is that britain is pursuing a fifty billion dollar trident nuclear submarine program upgrade probably in violation of the nuclear proliferation treaty and it was only recently that h.m.s. tireless beached up in gibraltar much to the chagrin of green activists and this is the same nuclear submarine that ran into a port here in scotland i don't think the spanish a very happy about nuclear submarines going up and down the straits. and finally a new opinion how serious will be consequences of this conflict. well the absurdity i suppose is that david cameron wants to take it to the european court of justice a legal war as a british newspaper has put it in the past couple of hours rather than the naval war and it was only a couple of weeks ago that david cameron here in his own minister were trying to
9:11 am
pull out of the european court of justice trying to avoid the obligations of the european court of justice and here they are going to spend more money and try and take it up to the european union i don't know whether they're slightly joking about it said that the monitors will be sent to gibraltar to monitor what exactly is going on with this artificial reef which catalyze the recent still a g.'s as it were and the european union and the european commission said the monitors are on holiday at the moment soon as they're back next month they'll try and report back to the british government about what they think. sheltie contribute to option rotund say live from london mr townsend thank you very much indeed for your time thank you russian response to activist seeking to turn the winter olympics into approaches ground against a long homosexuality propaganda line if you were ministry says no participants all spectators will suffer as a result of the legislation will break down the law has been causing
9:12 am
a storm of opposition and just a few moments to start with. and while the u.s. secretary of state is currently on a comfortable trip to latin america where it seems so reasonable soothing to strain created by the spy revelations of edward snowden it was a tough task for john kerry defending washington's far reaching surveillance during talks in colombia and now his walk of shame is continuing in brazil which is apparently thinking twice before proceeding would have been done a deal to purchase american fighter jets more details from rohani. it's going to be john kerry's first visit to south america seen stake in the secretary of state job but apparently not they used his specter to face up to us a rise of questions raised about the incident involving president gore ollie's from believe us when he's airplane was blocked in europe recently and in the wake of the
9:13 am
revelations that washington has been the spying law in america according to you from a should release by future chief blower it were told and brazil was the top original target for the n.s.a. surveillance program washington was a brinkley's being on the unsolved brazilian's telephone records as well as private e-mails for about a day kate brazil's foreign minister talking about through all that has said that this can't be left out of the conversation between the two top countries they promise that right after the brazilian paper published an article in july you and the n.s.a. collecting data on be didn't solve telephone e-mail conversations in the country the foreign minister suppressed deep concern and asks for a small nations in father bill brazil once the matter addressed at the united nations to find a legal way to protect the rights of citizens and preserve the serving of the
9:14 am
country's me why it looks like the most provocative relations are you still to come deem agree world the america publishes golden legal documents claimed that what has seen so far it just stays in mali of a much bigger cake he promised to release thousands of files in the upcoming weeks or so related to what he say is the secret united states surveillance of the global internet. that has reportedly told brazilians ofi shows that disclosures we'll unveil more eat your gate. will solve the america's spy world a white in brazil we are so it looks like washington has some issues to our you're an out why the n.s.a. scandal seems to be taking on a broader debate shoots her fellow to r.t. brazil. america's old time excuse that inspired program is
9:15 am
a vital and to tara tool is not strong enough when it comes to snooping on the brakes crew members which brazil is part of so says political analyst eric draitser . the surveillance was targeting economic interests business interests this adds an entirely new dimension to this story because as we all know brazil is one of the world's leading emerging economies in the united states and the ruling class in the united states that is tremendously fearful of the rising economic power of the brics grouping it is not just a formality that we use this term it represents a shift in the global economic balance of power and the united states knowing that its economic power is waning is using alternative means to exercise his gemini and project its own power and this surveillance that the n.s.a. operates within other agencies as well that is a fundamental part of that whether it gives the united states an upper hand in
9:16 am
negotiations whether it allows them to use blackmail and other forms of leverage all of this is part of the the good tool kit if you will of u.s. imperialism in latin american around the world. while countries such as brazil look for a way around american surveillance the file sharing website pirate bay marks ten years of outsmarting governments by launching a sense of don't going online browser read more about the new software dot com. and coming up later in the program because traps in a wide pool of warm blue push on the plight of the ethnic minority which has found itself in the path of al qaida linked groups are aiming to set up an islamic state that has come to the right. as a media leader so we lead that maybe. i will see bush and secure. your party there's
9:17 am
9:18 am
welcome bob this is all see these storms arriving after a frightened child caught in egypt's capital cairo we're getting reports that clashes have broken out between supporters and opponents of the ousted president mohamed morsy police have used tear gas to disperse the crowds true is joining us now live with more details from the egyptian counter so nice to see you so what's happening in cairo right now. well the latest reports are the same arch of muslim scholars affiliated with the most and brotherhood's knowledge of the manning these protests in support of ousted leader mohamed morsi were marching towards the ministry even down mints when they came in and also
9:19 am
cation with local residents of the area rocks were thrown which then led to the police having to intervene with tear gas now these clashes continue. in support of the ousted leader mohamed morsy reportedly continued in the area causing problems in the residents themselves became more violence this comes after another day of marches by those who support morsy across the capital and also their cause they're keeping their two sittings here in cairo and across different parts of the country they are very much up in their pressure against the new interim government by having these different marches that going to government buildings and also security buildings where these kinds of clashes are continuing it's also been quite bloody old occasions between residents of the areas that brotherhood and their supporters are currently residing in these sit ins so we're seeing here quite a lot of tension between those who support morsi and their opponents including the residents of the areas where the protests are taking place as you mentioned the
9:20 am
authorities were threatening to disperse to citizens by president morsy supporters in cairo. have there been any attempts to do so far. there's been a lot of leaked. reports through sources speaking to international media and local media outlets that the security forces are gearing up to do you force removal of these two main cities in the capital now everyone was here on sunday night they were very much protesters i'm journalists were camped out in another city sit in expecting this dramatic dispersal which never happens following reports have said that there is actually division within the government on one hand the army chief but the c.c. and the security forces in the form of the minister of interior who really want to get rid of the sit ins on the other hand the more liberal and secular forces in the government like the vice president today who are pushing for more democratic reconciliation however the situation is still tense the protesters themselves are
9:21 am
building barricades around their citizens they have early warning systems they have a system whereby people can can leave the city should they be attacked but they are remaining defiant determined to stay put i spoke to protesters yesterday who showed me their new bathrooms they build generators they got in in case there's a seize a seizure on the citizens they go to have kitchens and they're building homes so they're really settling in for the long term so this deadlock continues as the violence is escalating. truly live from cairo many thanks indeed. because this is participants of the sochi winter olympics will not be discriminated against as a result of russia's new law against homosexual homosexual propaganda to mine is the country's interior ministry has dismissed any claims to the country to the contrary as far fetched and baseless this follows
9:22 am
a wave of protests against the new law by western communities. what's causing all the reaction the international reaction as well as domestic here reaction here in russia has really been hinged on what the law does and doesn't do and there's been a lot of misconceptions about it so let's really break it down now the bill criminalizes the public expression of support for so-called nontraditional relationships russian lawmakers say that it doesn't outlaw homosexuality it merely discourages the discussion of it among people younger than eighteen now the law doesn't outlaw gay sex which was actually legalized in russia back in one thousand nine hundred three it also doesn't explicitly ban the participation in gay pride parades the problem however is that the defendant and of propaganda is rather vague and it's based on intent so anyone who distributes information for example with the intention of persuading minors that nontraditional sexual relationships are attractive could be
9:23 am
accused of breaking this law any individuals or organizations who are accused convicted of violating it face fines foreign citizens could potentially face up to fifteen days in prison deportation and denial of the entry into russia now will most activists believe that this law will not to be widely enforced there is concern that it effectively gives some local governments carte blanche to say to ban gay pride parades and to discourage people from discussing lesbian gay bisexual issues on the internet so that's the worry the thing to keep in mind however is that russian society is very traditional and conservative and there are. in fact a lot of support for this legislation here domestically the independent center a polling center here in russia has actually found that seventy three percent of respondents support any government efforts to curb the homosexual propaganda in fact at least in texas haven't really changed over the years it also found that four out of five russians say that they don't have
9:24 am
a single lesbian or gay acquaintance so that is why there's been such a difference in for example the western and international reaction versus the reaction right here in russia that's a perfect opportunity to sort of make political statements for whatever issue that comes up this is the the main sort of social hot button issue that's been raised internationally originally the law had sparked a boycott of russian vodka and gave them bars across north america and elsewhere with people dumping the baka and front of russian embassies eventually the calls moved on to boycott the twenty fourteen winter olympics in sochi and one of the prominent british actor stephen fry of course raised intense controversy when he wrote an open letter to the prime minister david cameron as well as the international olympic committee suggesting calling for a boycott suggesting fact that there should be a boycott of the cames even comparing them to the games held in berlin in one thousand and thirty six of course that was in nazi germany but we should also
9:25 am
states that most officials including u.s. president barack obama had said that the boycott is unnecessary and that these games should continue to be attended by the athletes now here in russia the russians force minister said that foreign athletes will be expected to respect the laws of the country but the head of russia's the olympic committee alexander also spoke out on this issue he said that russia will do its best to effectively keep the guests on the participants safe and comfortable that very mixed reaction internationally but russian officials are trying to encourage athletes to to feel comfortable and to of course participate in these upcoming sochi winter olympic games. and usually on the outskirts of syria's civil war kurds now find themselves caught right in the middle reports suggest al qaeda linked jihad it have slaughtered more than four hundred and fifty kurdish civilians including women and children and are believed to be holding many more hostage if confirmed kurdish
9:26 am
leaders in iraq say they're ready to intervene human rights activist as on day one he says the militants want access to natural resources that these groups seek a stylish in going to islamic states they supposed to engulf the building or oil rich areas of kurds and they said they are supported very well by turkey so there are two factors one of them is that these groups want to establish their own islamic state mini islamic state which is a project to establish a huge islamic state things turkey syria and iraq now they see that kurds are facing them or kurds as a challenge to them the other factor is that turkey is pushing this groups against kurds because turkey is not happy that. are willing go to try to establish their own internal me in that region and the kurdish region northern syria coming up next
9:27 am
it's primary interest. the u.s. government project arrow marty has been in place for twenty years this project was designed to break the media monopoly of cuban television by putting u.s. government propaganda up to t.v. screens this injection of american t.v. works with a blimp and a c one thirty military plane working in tandem you know this would actually be a major achievement in the history of technology if it actually worked this program which over the years has built up a billion taxpayer dollars simply does not work but continues to exist despite the cuban government completely blocking the transmission the official logic of continuing the program is that it would send a bad message to the cuban government if they stopped brilliance and action but the big question is who gives the u.s. government the right to propagandize cubans just because they have
9:28 am
a different lifestyle doesn't mean it is wrong and the u.s. government does has the right to destroy it and even if cubans on mass actually do hate their system then it is their job to change cuba not the military industrial complex and its cronies in washington but that's just my opinion. good afternoon and welcome to prime interest i'm hereon boring and i am bob english let's get to today's help i. bet coins are now a national security issue that's according to the new york department of financial service says the very thinly veiled threat last press release compared virtual currencies to the wild west of the domain of narco traffickers and criminals the same in new york that it is in the common interest to bring virtual currencies quote out of the darkness and into the day into the light of day compelling news
9:29 am
that dramatic. metaphor is your mrs mr spencer yes we do and prime interest last week we called it the mainstream media when they floated the idea that no one would go into jail over the six billion dollars london will debacle well now the media is following a different story which is to say someone might actually go to jail no not mr diamond or any of his direct underlings just certain mid-level employees what's more mary jo white head of the f.c.c. to regulate state p. morgan passed to recuse herself that's because as we pointed out before she represented the too big to fail banks for becoming as the regulator. and speaking of j.p. morgan as we like to do it seems there is a bit on the fire fanning about the energy market manipulation to see if d.c. is finally getting involved and quote probing those actually warehouse metals that would be the likes of j.p. morgan and goldman sachs a name so i.
