what you might have a national coming to live from moscow i'm marina josh welcome to the program now brussels is planning to talk led the american countries out of boosting agricultural exports to russia that's according to the financial times citing senior officials nations such as brazil and chile were set to meet the short fall when the russia introduced a food embargo on a range of european products in response to ease sanctions and more and out from our correspondents in berlin people all over. well following russia's decision to ban the import of certain foodstuffs in agricultural produce from from europe as well as other countries in retaliation to the sanctions that were opposed the economic sanctions that were imposed on russia as we understand that brussels are going to try and contact some countries in central and south america in order to dissuade them from selling the blockaded the banned foodstuffs to russia at

a decent price now what we're particularly looking at is countries like brazil and chile and brazil is already seen this is an opportunity it has long trading history with russia it's opened to open around ninety meat processing plant it's expected that brazil will be the place that russia goes to to try and get its beef and pork also chile which is said to be the place it goes to for fish imports that it's no longer accepting from the european union now those farmers that are here in europe well they're saying that when washington and brussels came up with the sanctions against russia they weren't thinking about them and they didn't think about the consequences it could have when making a decision to impose sanctions on russia the e.u. should have realized businesses will have problems because the grocer will let it go and will take responsive measures which we are paying right now we need access

to the markets could help solve the deadlock situation in which for example the fruit sector is in elsewhere poland is preparing an appeal to the w t o the world trade organization against the sanctions imposed by russia they say that it infringes upon the rights of particular apples were huge import to russia from poland what they're saying is it goes against the b.t.o. rules russia says not in the slightest doesn't it fringe upon anything that w t o suggests and it says that nobody was complaining to the w t o when stat sanctions were imposed on russia so what we're seeing is these things to sanctions starting to bite and the people that they're impacting on the most of the farming business and the agricultural industry in europe. robert oulds who is the head of the bruges group think tank believes the latin american countries won't band under the pressure from brussels. really time the european union as well as perhaps even the united states stop dictating to other countries around the world argentina brazil

chile they're greedy it will be in their economic interest to expand that very diverse this is a very good opportunity for them to forge closer links with russia as well as so really these countries will not bow to pressure other states and i will look to expand the links with russia just but china has recently done in terms of gas and oil supplies and breaking news on our team of has confirmed it's detained a russian photographer in ukraine under a stone and went missing in the country's east and we go and he is now apparently have been charged with aiding terrorists cave have previously denied reports that he was being held by a security services colleagues of the thirty three year old journalist who are drawing public attention to his plight with an online campaign hash tag free andrew now the un expressed its hope that the reason obviously his agency reporter will be found say the new york based committee to protect journalists is calling for sentence immediate release and here's

ongoing u.s. airstrikes on jihad as in iraq have not contained or broken the momentum of the militants that's according to the pentagon washington has so far been reluctant to launch another ground invasion by is now beefing up the flow of weapons to the region u.s. officials say they're seeking to further undermine the so-called islamic state by arming kurdish resistance fighters in northern iraq so far they are only sending light weapons and ammunition by the kurds also want rocket launchers and tanks as are reports some of the weapons used by the jihadists were also made in america. thousands of iraqis are helpless in the face of terror from the islamic state the jihadi militants are ruthless and well armed there's the hottest forces in iraq are probably the strongest the hardest forces in the region and the world they are equipped with a vast american weapons and that's how they were able to ethnically and the

minorities christian and it's the the minorities from many areas in kurdistan or south of course that another attack in kurdistan u.s. officials see no alternative to sending weapons to combat the extremists who now fight with american weapons you cannot confront isis with flowers at the same time flooding an already deeply. divided country with more weapons could backfire in the future. there is no american military solution to low prices in iraq. only less likely is for iraqis come together and form an inclusive government president obama may want a unified iraq but the kurds have long wanted out and arming kurdish militia forces could lead to a permanent breakup of iraq any peaceful said state of the currents but bob would like to bring the region several days and most cities as well as major world see

both kurdish and that's the care for right now is pressing as the kurds defense needs are the question is whether the weapons provide the defense today you've. been watching to track down. the u.s. military began pulling out of iraq in two thousand and nine but left a deadly legacy more than a nine billion dollars worth of weapons including tanks and aircraft when the islamic state militants rolled across northern iraq they captured some of these american weapons and are now putting them to use and with u.s. arms already on both sides of the barricades washington is now sending weapons to the kurds who are fighting against the hardest but who also want in the pan is from baghdad one political activist told us american directly cultivated the iraqi insurgency by aiding the opposition in neighboring syria. on the one hand we see the u.s. look eating hundreds of millions of dollars to support fund and train opposition

groups in syria the same time the us is supporting the iraqi central government against the opposition groups in iraq the confusing part is that. groups behind the uprising in syria and iraq are linked you know and the armed opposition fighters in iraq is considered an enemy of the united states but once they cross the border to syria they are funded and armed by the united states definitely foreign interventions and foreign agendas and that each and have opened the doors wide for all of these extremist groups. state is a small group with five to ten thousand soldiers mostly on pickup trucks they took out thirty five percent of iraq's territory in a week the united nations has formed an expert power to investigate possible war

crimes by both sides during the latest conflict in gaza but while hamas hailed the move israel slammed it accusing their future inquiry of bias before it even started policy or explains. well israel has called the united nations human rights council a kangaroo court it comes after the announcement from the council that it was appointing a three member panel to investigate allegations of possible war crimes now the decision follows an announcement that was made several weeks ago by the head of the council navvy pelé and she said at that time that there is the strong possibility that israel is violating international law and that will power was should hold israel accountable for possible war crimes she went on to point out that the israelis had hit schools and hit homes and hospitals gaza's only power plant you and premises and that all of this was in violation of the geneva conventions the u.n. chief banking has also in the past spoken out in the harshest terms against israel

accusing it of hitting particularly in schools where thousands of gazans who have been displaced by the monthlong fighting were seeking refuge now israel has responded by calling this forty seven member state for women in the words of the country's foreign minister he said it was a terrorist rights council and that its investigations and conclusions were predictable israel excuses the un of being a biased against it and what these radio argument is is that it is him us who should be investigated for what they call double war crimes number one firing rockets at israel and number two using civilians as human shields. and here is what the recent conflict with israel has cost gaza the tiny strip of land by the sea has been left in ruins and more than one thousand nine hundred palestinians were killed tens of thousands of homes were destroyed or damaged by israeli strikes universities over one hundred schools and mosques were reduced to rubble reports say half a million people have been displaced and that's almost

a third of the population and over a million people are now without access to drinking water. and back to our breaking news story cave has confirmed it's detained a russian photographer in ukraine andrey stan it was missing in the country's east week ago and he has now apparently been charged with aiding terrorists listen of course live to medina caution has more on this story from what you know as we know keep had been denying this previously what more can you tell us indeed but according to the latest information that we've just received russian photographer that he is staying in was the rest the by ukrainian special services now this is and i need to mention that that this is the first information with been receiving concerning his fate that was voiced since the disappearance. that happened back on the fifth august now in particular that information was voiced by the divisor to the had of ukrainians interior ministry and he made that
