take it all in this story expect a small. just joined us is kevin owen here without see tonight just after eight pm this is the weekly or rather by the top stories of the last seven days and this week's interlude between the two rounds of crucial talks over iran's nuclear program send somebody mixed signals on the one hand the u.n. watchdog declare that atomic projects of virtually been frozen since president rouhani came to power on the other u.s. lawmakers are insisting that more sanctions should be placed on a random moves and threatens to derail the deal to buy more to say look what else is jeopardizing the diplomacy to the pieces are in place. we have time and again said that i know no circumstances would we seek any weapons
11:02 am
of mass destruction including nuclear weapons nor will we ever wrong and how you. operate with respect to get connectivities to appear and that they can by going. to meet all of all present and party. woman or words flowing relations yet just as the deal in geneva was on the cons between the world pollens and iran came concern from france a surprise move that stall the talks but end fran's new friends in israel who'd been the traditional stumbling block up to now still small ting from the threats and intense rhetoric of the recent ponced is will refuses to budge that's a bad deal it's a dangerous. because it keeps iran as a nuclear threshold nation. we are not blind and i don't think we're stupid as well
11:03 am
the main bargaining chips the sanctions lightning could prove the deal may come when congress is having none of it put in president obama in a tough spot i think rouhani has staked his position on the idea that he can improve relations with the rest of the world and so far he's been saying a lot of the right things if i were the privacy for israel to be very wary as well of any kind of. talk from the iranians and then there's the bargaining hammon israel building more subtle mens' when things don't go its way approving more units only last month leaving us congress to get trigger happy with more sanctions don't draw us into a bad deal with iran we already know how israel's benjamin netanyahu feels advocating his case on twitter through yet another colorful graphic presentation
11:04 am
and the red carpet will be rolled out for its new found friends friends present it's tough to predict whether the p five plus one will equal unity when they get back around the table next week in geneva. they already moscow. were to continue with our top story in just a moment those talks over the. nuclear ambitions or not however we got some breaking news coming in just to interrupt that a second we were getting some sketchy reports coming through that a boeing seven three seven jets crash landed an airport in russia's city of khazan a little early receiving early reports that maybe up to forty four people have been killed. officials are saying emergency services say an explosion happened as a plane was coming into land it was a flight that originated from moscow we're trying to get the flight number in the coming minutes but the most we know at the moment boeing seven three seven crashed an airport in russia city of. received reports that forty four have been killed
11:05 am
emergency officials say that could have been some seven explosions that came in to land it was a flight that started off from moscow to say we're trying to get the flight number very soon right then back to a more thoughts of the iranian nuclear negotiations. lands in israel now is already assured that france will be tough and will not ease its pressure on iran during next week's nuclear talks let's bring in the conversation said hussein was savvy and he's an iranian policy maker used to be on iran's nuclear plummeting team to negotiations with the i.a.e.a. delighted to have him on the program hi sir good evening to you the french foreign minister has said that the last round of israel's concerns must be considered during all nuclear talks end quote president the land is in israel right now reassuring is our ally how will this impact the outcome of these upcoming talks next week. france has blocked peaceful deal because of israeli claims i think this is
11:06 am
a historical mistake france is making because if you read digic or it's in one thousand nine hundred two israel is they claim iran would possess nuclear bomb in one thousand nine hundred five in one thousand nine hundred five they claim iran would possess nuclear bomb in one thousand nine hundred nine then they claim iran would possess nuclear bomb in two thousand and three it is for twenty years giving . time table that iran would possess nuclear bomb within one year or two year or three years therefore this has been proven to international community that israel is lying and i really don't understand why france is going to block such a peaceful deal based on such a false claims of israel as well furthermore alarm from journeys in any sanctions or restrictions until it's sure quote again iran's not seeking to build
11:07 am
a bomb but what about last week's report that the nuclear programs virtually frozen that's partly not provided any assurance of france at all and as it. no first the world. has about five thousand. inspections of your rainy and nuclear program and frequently has announced there is no evidence of diversion toward the opposition this is clear but i really dealt with the real concern of france usable nuclear bomb because france has a strategy to relations with israel israel is not a member of n.p.t. and possess about four hundred nuclear bombs therefore france should not be concerned about nuclear bomb france help israel to master nuclear bomb france help in the two master nuclear bomb france help pakistan to master nuclear bomb so
11:08 am
double standard gave no clear nuclear reactors to iraq in one thousand eight. hundred very very bad record it's displaying double standards you saying france as far as your concern. first of all it is double standard second claim about nuclear bomb related behavior is completely different they know iran doesn't have a nuclear bomb they know for ten years of inspection there is no evidence of any kind of the iranian nuclear program but they are sanction iran because iran doesn't have nuclear bomb and they are relying on israel why israel has four hundred nuclear bombs ok well let's just take this forward now from the israeli side of it israel's promised. government meeting and on c.n.n. a bit earlier said that in fact rather than easing any restrictions restrictions
11:09 am
should be tighter sanctions should be even tighter. now on to iran to try and get an even tighter deal but the stakes for. a look at the result of the sanctions this has been israeli position for more question more fresh air more sanctions on iran because more pressure would push iran to give up its nuclear program this is the israeli position since six seven years ago but look at the result before sanctions you know sanctions imposed. on iran in two thousand and six but before sanctions iran had about three thousand centrifuges after sanctions iran about nineteen thousand centrifuges before sanctions iran was enriching below five percent after sanctions iran is enriching to twenty percent before sanctions iran had
11:10 am
a few hundred kilogram of stockpile of enrich uranium now iran has about eight thousand kilogram of a stock by this is the result of sanctions practically israelis are pushing the international community to push iran for increasing its capacity a level and capability of its nuclear program service a reserve servian thank you for being on the line much appreciate it if you use the thanks. well should the talks result in something israel isn't happy with. with a former sworn enemy for a possible strike on iran britain's sunday times newspaper suggests saudi arabia is working closely with israel's mossad on a military campaign if iran's nuclear program isn't by that agreement in geneva anyone might be forthcoming under the reported plan saudi arabia is understood to be allowing israel use of its airspace it would also assist israel in deploying combat drones helicopters and tanker planes the saudis are furious partly out of
11:11 am
there are willing to give israel all the help it needs that's what would normally source allegedly told the newspaper the sunni muslim gold kingdoms along that she dominated iran could get a nuclear weapon a concern of course shared by israel iranian political analyst said my husband randy spoke to us and thinks that if the saudis really plan plays out there would be no winners well we don't know if these reports are true but the saudis and the israelis are moving closer and closer to one another however it's highly unlikely that the saudis or the israelis would really want to attack iran because they both countries would be losers they would be seen grassers. obviously the iranians would retaliate the soviets would you know very one or they would create an economic catastrophe for the world. that would mobilize the whole middle east especially people on the streets in support of iran they would isolate israel after all the americans with all their firepower. failed in their attempt to bring about tack on
11:12 am
syria because world public opinion and american public opinion simply would not accept it. well if such plans do exist it might come to life even if next week's geneva nuclear talks ended in the group of some kind we're asking you tonight if you think a deal can be reached thanks for voting if you have them more than half of you voted so far think israel's opposition that will prevent any deal that's the majority there fifty three percent but a third if you believe that there is a chance but only if the west recognizes the rands right to nuclear energy just a little over ten percent of you there actually ten percent pessimistic saying that neither side needs a deal so badly the going to rush into in the final five percent of you say iran will agree to a deal only after sanctions leave with no other choice you can argue or voice now. home. an underground adoption mark has been exposed in the united states it's called private real home and it allows parents to get rid of their own
11:13 am
wanted adopted kids but. no background checks for government scrutiny means that children could end up with families who would never normally legally be allowed to adopt or even they could end up with criminals report it's got a story animal owners may be familiar with the term private re homey typically it refers to those seeking to give their pet away but today the practice is reportedly being used by parents looking to give away the child they adopted from overseas and no longer wants an investigation conducted by reuters found that this type of child trafficking is happening largely in cyberspace where parents allegedly advertise their unwanted children through yahoo and facebook groups the lawless atmosphere allows internationally adopted orphans to be passed on to strangers without government scrutiny or even a paper trail as a result many of these children can end up in the custody of criminals sex
11:14 am
offenders or abusive adults that would have never been allowed to legally adopt many of the children advertised online for private re homing range between the ages of six to fourteen and had been adopted from abroad including from countries such as russia china ethiopia and ukraine it poses huge risks right because some of the families into which these children home they're probably perfectly good in the children are doing better perhaps and some of them are not as of this year u.s. citizens are banned from adopting russian orphans since nine hundred ninety one thousand russian children have reportedly died at the hands of their american adoptive parents reporting from new york marine upper nile r.t. . i want to children have been advertised at least once a week to spoke to one young man who told us how his life took a turn for the worse when he was passed on to a new family. dimitris stewart was five years old when he and his brother were

11:22 am
guantanamo are really these superhuman monsters you know the worst of the worst quote dick cheney. they would have been. most of those still kept locked up have not been charged and are being held indefinitely what sort of a black hole of a limbo a weak system where the president of the united states simply refuses to say the innocent but u.s. officials say the law of war remains behind this barbed wire the idea that in a war when you capture folks you as the capturing authority are permitted to hold people during the duration of hostilities. when hostilities and or if there's no longer any purpose legitimate purpose to to hold them and they must be released a tiny problem the war on terror has no geographic borders with men once held here repeat treated to a wide array of countries. who are only specific to guantanamo you can't even you couldn't even the case on the u.s.

seven anyway as thoughts tonight with friends and family everyone who's a parish there really bad news coming through from central russia. marsa legal immigration to russia which was exposed by last month's murder at a moscow market is seen in effect of police chiefs kicked out and triggered raids on far as without permission in the country at least two hundred of the girls were repatriated from russia after that single incident and that's as paul scott explains some of the tip of the iceberg. migration in moscow is a sensitive subject right now following last month's murder of russian manye gaucher back of allegedly at the hands of an azerbaijani migrant and the nationalistic riots that followed the issue is firmly in the spotlight and an r.t. camera crew has found out just how sensitive the topic is we went to a market on the outskirts of moscow to try and film an interview with mohamed
11:29 am
magenta the president of the russian federation of migrants despite getting prive commission to film it soon became clear our presence was not welcome. you russian do i have to repeat myself the site ends with the fence we eventually set up our interview away from the market. years i think they may have suspected some illegal activities of course when you have thousands of migrants some of them may not have work permits or residence permits. the exact number of migrants in moscow is hard to calculate but best estimates put the figure at around one quarter of the population and according to official statistics one in five murders one into rapes and one in three robberies are carried out by migrants your thirty's are keen to be seen to be tackling the problem as we found out before our meeting with mohammed. morsi of the under arrest in the outskirts of moscow police have been clamping down on illegal immigration every friday they go right.
