i'm going to. the u.s. nuclear carries heading in syria's direction as the obama administration in the press says a military strike ahead of the congressional vote only. a thousand days and house arrest time spent in a london prison and now in the ecuadorian embassy is the price we can be expounded on at sun trust paid and his bottle full transparency. and radiation at japan's fukushima nuclear plant has spiked to these levels sink to been enough to kill in just four hours of exposure.

and welcome to all sea twenty following us live from moscow i'm jewish top top story now. with the u.s. congress a week away from making a decision on intervention in syria america's navy is continuing to step up its presence in the region it comes as president obama called for military action against assad's government leaving the. door open even if there's no eventual approval from lawmakers and a nuclear powered aircraft carries in are heading towards the red sea to support this strike on syria if ordered is accompanied by five smaller washouts armed with tomahawk cruise missiles the same camera group took part in the u.s. military operation afghanistan american warships have been massing off the sewer and coast over the past week and there are currently five destroyer is loaded with missiles in the mediterranean along with phoebe as a sole ship with hundreds of troops on board in the letter to the un syria has

asked the world body to prevent american aggression and to push for a political solution. has been finding out how the escalation of the situation is affecting syrians there. tomorrow next week next month series wondering if or when america's missiles will strike and what the aftermath will be but for many people here it doesn't pay to linger on what tomorrow will bring because the resolve ready a war today. the snow is going on the way you money we've been at war for two years with bombs falling in our hands just a few kilometers from here cruise missiles around as well is the difference in the us i get the shot every day every hour every minute tween der bombardment we have bombs and terror attacks showing it's not very hard to face america after dealing with the job its for so long michel will lead not his real name has

a nice apartment in an upmarket area of damascus but a year ago he moved into the hotel his running for safety reasons after a family member was kidnapped by what he says were members of an al qaeda linked group we don't feel safe of course not because of. of. the strike we've got just at the last stop they are throwing these things against civilians and that's very bad and to have had a looser is considered to be one of the most successful and aggressive opposition forces promote in fundamental islam and proclaiming the end of the assad regime they are believed to hold several districts around damascus where they engage in almost daily battles with government troops both the u.n. and the u.s. and others consider it a terrorist organization a treaty i see that america should side because we are fighting terrorism america doesn't agree i have decided that the united states should take military

action against syrian regime targets that's just another entry on a long list of daily concerns which already includes terror attacks not pains and can. those living in residential areas of damascus say several days ago they started receiving letters like this one advising them to clear their basements in preparation. for now no one i spoke to luke likely would follow the advice syrians may vote with their feet when the bombs start to fall but for now there's good plenty of other things to worry about. reported from damascus in syria. and for more updates follow our season or if a no show on twitter has been attempting to find out how other countries in the region would respond to a u.s. strike on syria. would be in the. it's been revealed that the british funds approved the sale of chemicals to see

where which can be used to make these sarin nerve agent that was the substance allegedly used during last month's attack near damascus which is central to washington's case for military action licenses to sell the chemicals were granted to a u.s. company although they were never actually delivered r.c. so how fast investigates business circuitry vince cable certainly going to be facing some tough questions over these revelations that the british government has granted export licenses to as yet as yet unnamed british company now this first for a substance has to be sent to syria and it was due to so-called chilled use substances and that was potassium fluoride and sodium fluoride and both these agents can be used as precursor chemicals in the manufacture of nerve gas or those export licenses granted by the department for business innovation of girls it's

reported in january the seventeenth and eighteenth and that license valid for six months in two thousand and twelve as you mentioned when the syrian civil war in syria was already raging and so huge concerns over the fact that those export licenses were ever granted in the first place and some big questions remaining of the department has come back and said it has had assessed over whether there was a risk that that could be used for internal repression they said that they felt the export license was correctly granted and that also they'd excepted assurances from the exporting company that these chemicals could be used for the manufacture of window frames in industrial processes that as we said those chemicals can also be used as precursor chemicals in the creation of the types of nerve agents that we've seen the british government accusing the syrian government of having used on its own. people that he's concerned anyway again about the suspected chemical weapon

stockpiles in the country i think we've got a map of some of the suspected sites there of course huge concern about what the syrian government could potentially be doing with those chemical weapons but of course also that some of those sites where it's thought there are chemical weapons stockpiles could fall into the wrong hands as the situation gets ever more complex on the ground in that country but it's thought here today there are going to be questions tabled in parliament to really runs through and scrutinize exactly how these licenses for chemical agents that could be used in the types of weapons that the syrian government is being accused of using on their own people who granted for a british company to send to syria. russia's reporting is sending a reconnaissance ship to the mediterranean to gather information on basque hating conflicts moscow has had out had the uighurs for its inappropriate game of secrecy over the ledge to chemical attack near damascus as the u.s.

has been refusing to reveal the evidence it claims to possess us he's shown thomas has more now on the reaction from russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov this is the first statement from the russian leadership after obama's speech on saturday and at first he made some broad sweeping statements about western policy in the middle east saying that it's inconsistent and that there are double standards but speaking on the idea of the united states having evidence that it was the assad regime used chemical weapons in syria he said that that evidence is not concrete it does not give specifics it does not give locations it does not talk about specific people or places therefore russia is skeptical let's listen to what he had to say about that. because we believe we've seen these papers there is no evidence it was just accusations if you have really any super secret data well you need to remove the secrecy because we're talking about war and peace. now one thing lavrov didn't

talk about was the situation in the aleppo syria back in march where the russian government believes they have evidence that it was the syrian rebels the opposition that actually used chemical weapons that they pointed to the fact that the ordinates used to deliver the same or in gas were not manufactured by mass and also that the gas itself was not industrially produced therefore pointing to the fact that it was the opposition that used chemicals at that time they wanted to have an investigation they were willing to cooperate they were ready to move forward and said that it was the western partners on the u.n. security council that delayed they didn't seem interested in having an investigation at that time perhaps because it was the rebels that were in question here so today it's a lover of reiterating russia's stance and strongly against the idea of western intervention. administration has launched

a full scale campaign trying to convince congress to support a miniature response in syria secretary of state john kerry insisted the case is building and the world they're built and here's what it's been based on so far u.s. officials have cited unconfirmed evidence and also pointed to footage posted online said to show victims of that time even unconfirmed accounts by reported eyewitnesses are being used to build the evidence against the syrian government while the latest claims from the state department revolve around alleged samples taken from the war zone which they say confound the use of chemical weapons however they do an investigation hasn't been completed yet and the body says it is the only one which can determine credible evidence of a chemical at soc. the united nations mission is uniquely capable of a stop pushing in impartial and credible mind the facts of any use of chemical weapons space directly on evidence collected from the ground ok and if the u.s.

shared any of this evidence that is described with the u.n. well as we've repeatedly said member states are encouraged to share information information they may have with regards to alleged incidents. so i really think you need to know about what's going on and on the run and see where it is on our web site dot com live updates on the chemical weapons crisis. coming out for you later in the program within hours of exposure latest inspections raising nation levels i'd be devastated when you plant it in japan are eighteen times higher and just over a week ago. down

it's wonderful but the reason they have to change there is because they rely on revenue from. a marriage of other people that they're rude but i haven't had any reading counters myself i'm shocked at the behavior of some people who are supposed to be tourism professionals i won't get into details but really i'm shocked at the attitude they've given me. with tourism making up more than seven percent of the french gross domestic product tourist officials in the country's capital decided to attempt the naysayers claim is impossible giving those who work in the service industry to be more pleasant. again being was launched this summer in paris called do you speak truest guide for restaurateurs taxi drivers and shopkeepers on how to behave towards their city's guests giving them country by country advice on what is expected from them. it is important for

everyone involved in pounces economy to treat tourists better regardless of their nationality in order to make them want to come back and to spend money. and that's precisely where france legs behind the competition despite being the number one destination the un world tourism organization found out that visitors to the u.s. spend twice as much as those who travel to france and that's despite fewer people making the journey to the states that the loss of revenue is proving twice as costly as europe continues to struggle with a debt crisis that seriously endangering the french economy this paris taxi driver insists though that while the dream speak truest is a good idea creating a positive experience is not a one way street. first of all for us taxi drivers that are prosecutors who are very excuse me for saying so annoying. something they may simply have to accept

a key televised debate with election chancellor challenger i should say with just three weeks left until the general vote merkel struggled to win over viewers as she looked at holmes with a social democrat time burke and he is the view of polls of germany's maine public broadcasting a shot forty four percent of those surveyed thought the incumbent chancellor one that you will while almost fifty percent fell to her rival was much more convincing and even among undecided voters the majority were more swayed towards time birth but as one of the reports both top candidates seem to realize they may be forced into a coalition to spy of the conflict over the hunting of the greek bailouts and the recent n.s.a. snooping scandal. now this one and only televised debates between the main front runners in the german elections could potentially have

a huge impact on who wins and who can try and pick up the few votes now currently as it stands at the moment called into the the latest polls that came out on friday angler merkel was quite far in the lead with forty one percent the s.p. d.p.a. x. party behind them with twenty six percent however personal feeling amongst the german voters could be could be huge in this one of the reasons for that is that the the two parties are quite similar and do agree on a lot of issues has accused merkel in the past of hiding the true cost of bailing out greece from the from the german people germany has put in the lion's share of the money to try and help the the financially struggling the fiscally struggling mediterranean nation after this election whoever is chancellor whether it's merkel or whether it is going to have to deal with what seems like the almost inevitable third bailout for the mediterranean country now one of the other major issues that

in this election in this election is the n.s.a. spying scandal and just what's being done about it and what was done at the time now one of the main questions being pointed at angola merkel is just how much did she know about it and how much did she allowed the n.s.a. the united states to spy on german citizens so greece and the n.s.a. emerging as the the two things that these the two main candidates can go head to head on however what we are going to see though is them slam each other too much personally it's very likely that on the two after the twenty second when the vote is here in germany these two might have to sit down and talk and i in out in bash out a coalition that could lead germany in the coming years. right and so the break will mean the russian man who gave a stay with this. many

gay bars are starting to refuse to sell russian vodka as a means of protesting the homosexual propaganda laws in russia as i've said before boycotts are a great way to put pressure on people but are they putting pressure on the right people not only is it racist to assume that hurting the vodka flow will deal a massive blow to the russian economy but it is also racist to think that any vodka with a russian sounding name is itself russian and many videos angry gay bartenders were pouring stolichnaya vodka which should be put out by the way onto the ground in a fury but if those bartenders would take a closer look at the labels they would see that exported stoli is produced and bold in latvia by the s.p.i. group not in russia also according to the n.p.t.

group beverage alcohol report the most popular vodka in america with a russian sounding name is smirnoff which is british own and produced and bottled in various countries around the globe including the usa itself we do support the american worker people love to panic over the hip and trendy scandal of the month but everyone seems to be ignoring the fact that homosexuality itself is legal in russia and is punishable in many other countries including a death sentence in some of them and yet russia gets all the attention if people really wanted to effectively boycott any country with any laws even a hint thing against homosexuality they would have to hit them where it hurts and stop getting natural resources imported from countries like russia saudi arabia venezuela and iran and so on and so on that is a vastly more difficult proposition than pouring. made vodka onto the sidewalk or passed just my opinion.
