7:02 pm
of life in creating military has suffered since the start of the operation in eastern ukraine foreign policy analysts are just print treif convention thinks the incident justifies a no fly zone over areas stricken by the fighting. there actually contributes to the common good of the world just to some extent because. the ukrainian of these kids used their power over the recent weeks as being irresponsible in the extreme they obviously use no smile i did weapons with the school or close to the skin and i think it's a case of the no fly zones in eastern ukraine is not warranted then he was insane he was a. friend you haven't and logical analysts alexander thinks that key evidence allies will point the finger at russia for this attack they're just going to blame russia blaming it for the past several weeks not good disposed to be in a collision on the part of russia how do these people manage to down
7:03 pm
a plane i mean equipment must come from russia i mean ukraine has its own military industry but they're going to pin the blame on russia because the real target russia is not even the south east or the east of ukraine so i expect escalation. and otherwise from nato from washington london brussels girly fortunately. western countries have blocked moscow's u.n. security council statement condemning the attack on the russian embassy in kiev according to a diplomatic source radical demonstrators have been vandalizing the building in the ukrainian capital for hours accusing russia of arming anti-government activists in the south and east artie's paul scott has more from kiev. a number of protesters do still remain outside the building one stage this evening a fire broke out it's not clear where they were started deliberately or by accident
7:04 pm
and fire was a real concern really throughout most of the evening most of the time that i spent that there were a number of overturned vehicles outside the embassy building and a lot of diesel an oil spilling for varies from place cars and one stage people around the school that the protesters the demonstrators were going to set fire to those vehicles but in the end the fire services turned up and hosed the cars down as a preventative measure. your president the police. all of this was being done without a police presence and it seems that ukrainian forces were prepared to let events forward without the police being on the scene the united states state department who should condemn reaction is going to protesters here in kiev to do it started earlier on saturday police say around one hundred protesters arrived to the russian embassy with anti russia clock collars and shouting and see blood in the clinton slogans but the atmosphere at times when the numbers began to swell
7:05 pm
a man from the right sector turned out we know where they were in the right sector because right sector rather red and black flags. and they started pelting the the embassy building with with paint with eggs and they started smashing windows and overturning. the ukrainian flag has also replaced the russian flag as well outside the building that was something that the protesters did not over the exits and entrances to the embassy at the moment i'll drop to meeting with the embassy staff all. hold up in the empty store harvey has managed to speak to one of the people inside. the situation it's gets more tense protesters have turned over embassy cars parked outside the perimeter is blocked with tires in the driveways of block with the protesters own cars they've torn down the russian flag from the pole the ukrainian police are supposed to guard the embassy there on preventing the harm being done to russian property so the star of are still holed up inside the embassy
7:06 pm
heading to the evening and events outside of the embassy will go at the moment they're peaceful they are certainly tense radicals in kiev also blaming russia for the crouch of the military transport jet in lugansk investigative journalist and filmmaker danny schechter speculates the embassy attack could be purposely trying to bait russia into a response. there's an urgency to it now i think from a communal cranium point of you're always from the viewpoint of ukrainian government suddenly with the events in iraq american media is shifting its attention away from ukraine to iraq and that would result in a i think a need on the part of some in the ukraine to try to get back into the media i know by staging incidents that could lead to a over response by russians which they could then use to justify calls for intervention or more support from the united states they could provoke
7:07 pm
a intensification or an escalation of the crisis there that gives them a pretext to refuse to pay for gas they refuse to accept compromises on the russian part hopefully to get the u.s. more involved in their situation i think that's the big game here that's being played here of russian journalist filming inside a maternity hospital in the eastern ukrainian city of slovyansk when shelling started on the building here is footage that we got from the. journalists interviewing hospital staff when the military allegedly started firing they rushed to the basement and waited there till the shelling stopped me talk with one of the journalists at the hospital. when we the group of journalists got information that a maternity hospital in the town center has been damaged we headed there started recording interviews in the hospitals yard then entered the building and at that moment the new attacks started we ran into the basement and stayed there for twenty
7:08 pm
minutes then we left the building but heard new showing quite close in had to hide again the building is quite seriously damaged nearly all the windows are broken. while and i proper trust ukrainian authorities apprehended two russian journalists working for his visit the t.v. which is already had employees detained in the country a correspondent and sound technician were held as they were heading to the airport they were supposed to fly to moscow after their assignment in the country was finished the channel says their documents had been in order and now reportedly held at the city's justice ministry we spoke with the wife of one of the men who herself is an art teacher analyst i know i just reached him by phone i could only share a known voices and then my husband said this is my last call that it was all i could understand and then i called to get his own answer and she only conference my question that she's detained she's safe and she will come back home today and some time ago she called me can sell it to me and i would go to. this moment today
7:09 pm
and she doesn't know if she's and then when i was watching. as the ukrainian crisis continues the country's economic affairs are also one shaky ground just one day left for he have to settle at least part of its gas bill or face being moved to pay in advance system is potentially a gas cut off more on this still to come. but first in iraq up to one thousand people are reported dead many of them civilians after a group called isis started an insurgency campaign earlier this week jihad its fighters seize several major cities including mosul the nation's second largest more victims fear it is the fighters are now believed to be heading toward baghdad hundreds of iraqi men responded to a call to arms issued friday by the country's top shia cleric who urged the nation to join the fight against radical a government airstrike on the area surrounding the country's biggest oil refinery has reportedly killed some two hundred terrorists this as the u.s.
7:10 pm
considers whether to add or whether to provide assistance and of what sort artes guy explains. president obama's message to iraq is the u.s. will help it fight the militants but it will not put boots on the ground he said he would be reviewing the range of options in the coming days this could mean air strikes but the president has not made a decision yet he'll something to kape that it's not up to the u.s. to solve iraq's problems we will not be sending u.s. troops back into combat in iraq but i have asked my national security team to prepare a range of other options that could help support iraq security forces and i'll be reviewing those options in the days ahead we can't do it for them in the absence of this type of political effort short term military action including any assistance we might provide won't succeed the sectarian war in iraq broke out after the u.s. invasion in two thousand. constant violence ever since it has allowed to the
7:11 pm
militants with the islamic state of iraq and syria again to gain momentum and recruits the fight against assad in syria is further bolstered these militants and gave them new resources they're now in control of large parts of iraq including iraq's second largest city of mosul the goal of this militant group is to create a caliphate or an islamic state across a vast area that includes syria and iraq when taking over most heavily armed radicals overran police stations freed more than a thousand prisoners from the city jail and to go over the international airport iraqi forces apparently ran in the face of leaving behind uniforms weapons and armored vehicles those could be weapons that the u.s. provided to the iraqi security forces that are now in the hands of these militants more than half a million people have fled seeking refuge the situation for most iraqis is dire and it has been so for years they were promised democracy but all they've seen is
7:12 pm
violence with no end in sight are days of worlds apart discussed iraq's dire sectarian strife former u.s. ambassador to iraq christopher hill will explain why isis could be a threat to any nation you can watch that show at ten thirty g.m.t. here's a look i see these people you know they are not interested in just iraq they are interested in the rest of us as well and so i think we as a civilization if you will need to be prepared to deal with organizations such as i see the criticism of maliki for not having enough sunni outreach that may be true but i think one can apportion some of the criticism on the sunni's who have made it very clear they're not interested in living under a shia prime minister that has a prime minister who represent shia political power and so i think it's a very fundamental problem in the.
7:13 pm
britain increasing its collaboration with the u.s. when it comes to nuclear weaponry worrying some that the country could lose its to deter an independence the two countries already work closely sharing intelligence and exchanging prisoners artie's playboy reports that critics fear such far reaching cooperation might not be benefiting britain's. america and britain already share nuclear know how in hardware and according to a guardian newspaper scoop that cooperation is to be stepped up even further prompting fresh questions about the independence of the u.k.'s nuclear to terror and if we don't have an independent deterrent which means an independent threat then we might as well just if we want to be protected by nuclear weapons pay the americans a fee and allow them to do it for the cold war may be over but there are still nearly ten thousand u.s. military personnel stationed in britain at dozens of our a.f. bases under us control that we are still fired nor for flying us here to be she's a member of the wires. because khomeini. states. you know you
7:14 pm
better take over america very which we were and is boring last month the independent on sunday revealed that washington is to spend two hundred million pounds want to revamp of our a.f. crouton one of the u.k. bases allegedly involved in mass surveillance revelations about g c h q and the n.s.a. they are what we could be saying that british citizens are actually having their privacy in paid it's a boy a country which is supposed to be our closest ally and friend in the world it's led some voices in the u.k. to question whether american and british interests always overlap britain is now a fairly small in some. powerful country and as we were in the days when we had an empire but we have a national interest we still have a national interest we're still a very big economy we're still an important country but we should exercise that
7:15 pm
national interest in our interest we shouldn't just slavish we hand over to the americans anything that they want and yes a succession of british leaders have done little to remedy what many see as a lot of sided relationship under the current extradition treaty between. britain and america it's much easier for a u.k. citizen to be sent to face trial in the us than the other way around over recent years twice as many people have been extradited from the u.k. to the us which british prime minister doesn't it's. a go that extra length for the americans to compensate. have. to many an american the american stuff which means britain is the fifty first states of america. so they're going to program selective morality. into one hundred talk about you know the central violence and you talk about war crimes and then you saw weapons to
7:16 pm
this government party looks at claims at a london summit against sexual violence ignored numerous cases of assaults in sri lanka. in the words of mary operands just a face full of water makes the austerity go down yesterday go down. balance and buybacks and banks are feathering their now some notes on to rest while the plundering your predictions are scrapings and well the product that boom boom boom and bust but just like old water there to go down. choose your language. surely we can we know if you're going to stay still so much. choose the consensus. choose your opinions that you think are great.
7:17 pm
choose the stories good in life choose the access to. eighteen minutes past the hour ukraine's prime minister has ordered the government to prepare for a halt in gas supplies monday kiev more than four billion dollars in debt in just a day left now to pay at least half of what it owes if the deadline isn't met the actual russia will only deliver gas that's been paid for up front earlier mike my colleague kevin owen discussed it all with our correspondent arena. so are these
7:18 pm
latest gas price talks of collapse we seem to be back to square one who's holding it up is ukraine or is it russia was the picture all depends on who you ask for example ukraine says that russia's price is too high and moscow says that kiev demands are simply absurd so let's have a look at the facts for starters ukraine admittedly owes billions of dollars to russia and gazprom has actually moved the deadline for payment back four times and now it's seven rounds of negotiations plus a huge hit here though that's still to be purty then we'll talk about what kind of strong position ukraine's in a moment but their economy is so bad that the moment how are they going to pay that all that is true but remember that i.m.f. loan that ukraine has already gotten and that is actually enough to cover part of their debt and that the fact is russia is not even asking them to pay back in for at least half of what he votes and if they do there's a deal for that moscow well actually throw in a retroactive discount on what ukraine owes and that will save the country millions
7:19 pm
of desperately needs if war but to the present ukraine is this latest discover the result for the one that was on the table is just too hard it's not enough so when we go from here well here is a perspective on the gas price russia is offering three hundred eighty five dollars per thousand cubic meters which is already eight hundred dollars less than the current running price what's more is that russia has actually guaranteed that rate for a year regardless of whether market prices go up and as a matter of fact even europe's energy chief has called the offer very reasonable. i believe that three hundred eighty five dollars is a reduction that could be considered reasonable depending on the volume and length of the contract it could even be less than three hundred eighty five and that will then be the final price ok so we've heard what russia is prepared to do what you crane prepared to do which are going to compromise well it doesn't seem like ukraine is going to compromise almost anywhere in fact it has offered. perry price of three hundred twenty six dollars until
7:20 pm
a permanent one is agreed upon and that is of course much less than what russia wants on top of that ukraine is refusing to pay back its existing debt until it gets the prize that it once we talked we touched on this just now why does ukraine feel it's in such a strong position here was of interest and that is a very big question here and according to gas from see all ukraine may be listening to third party advisors let's have a listen. i'm going to be perhaps the ukrainians of outside advisors it's just that we've observed from the very beginning of the talks that the ukrainian side never really wanted any compromise or any deal. so who's alexey miller talking over there rather cryptically who are these advisors may be well it's still a bit of a speculation but we've asked that question to a number of experts and there seems to be a predominant view let's have a listen creating these on the instructions from the united states of america very very large industrial companies this is also another subtle way of controlling the
7:21 pm
europeans remember because when and if russia quite rightly stops delivering gas which isn't paid for of course like last time like the previous two times the ukraine will simply siphon off that gas which will cause some problems in europe which will further encourage the europeans to be forced to eventually start buying american very expensive american gas as well that's all part of the business well any rift between russia and the u.s. really good for america because it is desperate to start selling its own gas if you look at this map right there you can see that you have gets thirty percent of its gas from russian federation and you're and ukraine is actually a major hub on that transport route from russia to europe and what america is desperate to do is to start selling its own gas but the problem is gas prices in europe right now are too low and i'm going to make if you took all this. transit through ukraine. how does that go to affect the price of gas it would go up with
7:22 pm
initial knocks a loosely and that is exactly what would make shipping all that gas from america to europe actually profitable and at the same time it would hit russia's economy to boot so america stands everything to gain and very little to lose. on archie dot com right now and enthusiasm is coming up with a solution to the gas dispute auctioning russian blue fuel on e-bay head to our website for the details on that and while you're there. have a look at footage of a demonstration by the aerobatic team of russia's air force doing vertical loops barrel rolls and more. and we can already observe distant celestial bodies but now research by nasa hints that soon will be able to smell foreign climate so you can find that full story on the. u.k. queen elizabeth has made actress angelina jolie an honorary dame for her humanitarian work she hosted the global summit to end sexual violence together with the u.k. foreign secretary it was called to address instances of rape in war zones like
7:23 pm
syria congo and others but the conferences failed to cite violations in sri lanka where experts say thousands were raped during almost thirty years of civil war human rights groups say sexual assault is still used there as a way to torture suspected criminals civilians are also at risk in sri lanka according to a un survey every ninety minutes there are a woman is raped every day up to five children are also abused and most of the suspects allegedly end up walking free. host of arties going underground spoke with human rights advocate bianca jagger who is convinced the u.k. ignore sri lanka's violations because it fueled civil war by selling it millions of dollars worth of weapons to the country but i did some research on this. group who is about how the u.k. send weapons that probably wouldn't use in the mass killing of the time at the end of the war and even before and he does believe that between seven hundred fifty to seventy thousand innocent civilians were killed. among the turmoil and it is
7:24 pm
a real persecution of the time even today and why is the u.k. government silent and of course they have something to answer because of the sale of weapons to that country and because sri lanka holds the presidency of the commonwealth in the one hand you talk about you know the sexual violence and you talk about war crimes and these weapons to this government. so just three days into the future world cup and the tournaments already throw up a few surprises none more so than the huge victory of the netherlands against world champions spain rushing them five to one in fans of england in italy or watching the game currently between their teams with italy in the lead but it's not just on the football pitch providing entertainment there's plenty of other treats on the sidelines as well graham phillips reports. basically constructs i don't need you to see it doesn't look this is a good seed now it stretches over several like bit of course the big screen is one

london in one of the caring hearts of one of the capitals of loving liberal e.u. they've implemented a plan to finally get almost people off the streets at night so did they provide these desperate people with the jobs they could at least earn a few pounds and have some human dignity of course not they put down spikes everywhere on the ground so that the hobos have nowhere to sleep yes that is right they're laying down spikes to keep up the homeless just like dragon's teeth keep out tanks now if this happened somewhere in say bangladesh on a bad day i might say well that is their business but all the liberals in the e.u. just constantly cry from their ivory tower to the whole world about how we all need to be tolerant and be taxed to death to help people but as a guy who grew up in a bad neighborhood i can tell you that liberals never want to live near the people they claim to want to help you know henry ford was one of those guys who said that you should never give anybody any handouts so what he did was give the disabled and the poor are decent paying jobs at his factory so listen up you liberal loony bin
