7:03 am
we're also hearing from the source is that the soldiers that were detained without giving any kind of resistance it's important to make the point that this happened at night where it's very difficult if not impossible at some points to tell where exactly is the borderline we're talking here about a border that often goes through a field of forest or even a village and i have crossed this border on several occasions and i can tell you from personal experience that there are many many parts where they simply no markings to say that now you are in the russian territory now you are in ukrainian territory at the beginning of august there was just over four hundred ukrainian troops who crossed over into russia reportedly seeking sanctuary this happened in an area in eastern ukraine which has seen the fiercest fighting between the anti-government fighters and the ukrainian military there is yet constant shelling and there's also a humanitarian crisis that is unfolding we traveled with a group of government fighters to one of the worst hit cities where we stand people

over events in ukraine everyone expects a meeting between president vladimir putin and petro poroshenko could ease the crisis they're saying is that in may or may not happen the two are in belarus capital minsk of a joint russia ukraine talks it will have more. we haven't seen each other since june and even then very briefly on the sidelines of the d.-day celebrations in france that meeting was the first and only since president poroshenko as you know argue aeration at the beginning of this year ended war little fruit still expectations food for today speaking ahead of the summit russia's foreign minister sergei lavrov said that moscow is ready for negotiations in any format as long as there is a result what could be on the table are the discussions concerning the fate of the hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing from donetsk and lugansk into russia as well as moscow's humanitarian aid to the suffering civilians in those regions also unconfirmed reports say that most go and give could renew their stalled gas talks
7:08 am
and that would explain why there is the e.u. energy chief in attendance on the guest list what is expected from this meeting is a possible ease of tensions between russia and ukraine at least what moscow could be expecting from this is to see some sort of a cease fire that would hold long enough to provide a permanent solution to the crisis in southeastern ukraine. president bush said he hopes to all who would lead me to putin can lead to peace in ukraine but foreign affairs experts say to believe it won't be easy for them to find common ground because of the outside factors shaping ukraine's politics. neither photo showing cork has a great deal of leeway in the proceedings because all three for a military solution. and he cannot back track on that one with ultra losing credibility with his base particularly in the west of the country but the elephant

missing from the room if you will is john kerry and victoria nuland because it is the brother family that there will be european troika in attendance from brussels where is the real policy be adjourned for fear is being drawn up in washington d.c. it is not in the interest of moscow to prolong this conflict but at the same time the hardline from q you have supported unfortunately by some of the worst elements in the country such as the right circuit or. the suborder party do not bode well for a political solution if there is the readiness in the west to prompt in the direction of a political solution we indeed could have it in me. every move was then it was during putin and pershing because first encountered two months ago in france and today will be much the same argy will be following their discussions closely

throughout today to stay with us to month journalists who were detained in ukraine have been released they were a correspondent and photographer for crimea based newspaper unfortunately there's still no word on the missing photo journalist andrei stan then he disappeared in ukraine three weeks ago numerous campaigns for his release have been held across the globe backed by calls from the un or russia and international human rights organizations were posting updates on the search for under a stand in on a website r.t. dot com. american drones will be flying over the syrian airspace surveilling the position obviously stayed militants the move was approved by the american president in making it a possible precursor for airstrikes however washington made this decision without any approval from the syrian government as

a still officially considers the us said to be an enemy but now there's mounting speculation that the u.s. will eventually have to work with the syrian president if it wants to eliminate this threat is gonna change again reports. there is no love lost between the west and the syrian president but while their enemies today they could meet each other tomorrow top former military and counterterrorism officials say the u.s. should be prepared to start working with the government of bashar assad in order to fight the islamic state you're going to make a choice if we want to eliminate this isis we're going to have to deal with people we don't like in a similar vein the former head of the british army was quoted as saying the old saying my enemy's enemy is my friend is going to have to have some resonance with our relationship with assad but those are former officials speaking the current ones reject the prospect of cooperation with the syrian government the regime there the assad regime by their actions has allowed this group to flourish. the claim has
7:12 am
raised many eyebrows given that the islamic state is hell bent on destroying the assad government and has gained momentum in the syrian civil war despite his differences with the west damascus now says it's ready to cooperate when it comes to fighting terrorism but that any efforts must be courted made it with the government. whether syria is ready to cooperate and coordinate on the regional and international levels to confront terrorism in the framework of respecting the sovereignty of syria all anti terror efforts inside syria should come after coordination has been made with the syrian government in advance. well after years of trying to topple bashar assad and it's time for assad to get out of the way we both agree that assad needs to go it may not be easy for the u.s. to be seen cooperate with him but while the west still liberates over going after the jihadists of these on the state in syria the issue becomes even more pressing
7:13 am
well we're going to have to say something to the syrian government if we're going to start bombing in syria and the west may have already started helping us secretly a source told the independent that western intelligence agencies have provided the syrian government with details of the location of islamic state leaders targeted air strikes the source claims the information was passed to assad's forces by the german intelligence service which acted as an intermediary even if there's a temporary act of convenience some sharing of intelligence which is unproven i believe the united states is still looking primarily to overthrow the assad government imagine the president of the united states coming out and saying i know i said assad is the enemy number one and all that but today well we may have to work together that may not be an easy thing to swallow for the presidential ego but a deal in cooperation could save many lives in washington i'm going to check our party. coming up on our teams a national the teenager killed by

7:15 am
a dramatic turnaround for scotland's first minister let's not forget that last time he was challenged over issues such as the future of scotland's economy and the future of the pound and this time he came prepared to give his currency options offer and replan beason fact something which he kept repeating but saying that sickened to the pound good that's the kind of thing that probably the most important revelation. now the head of the better together campaign alistair darling head back saying that that would leave scotland at the mercy of a foreign country telling their how to spend its money just like eurozone countries which have to get their budget signed off in a brussels thank you. you don't have a central bank so our financial services exist and salt and now other topics the two clashed on the war oil revenues the future of nuclear weapons as well as a health care the hour and a half the base ended up being a little bit of

a slanging match as the pair repeatedly shouted over each other to be heard there was very clear that the scottish national party leader was adopting a more emotional but more confident approach some said that the fact that he was shouting over his opponent could put off some voters but as we can see but the results of the snap election it seemed in his favor well a fifth of scotland's electorate will start receiving their ballots as early as this tuesday and many of them could be making their decision today based on that debates. money's coming your way up to this break and you stay with us here in our city. gender trump a simple as this gender madness in swedish it could be me or because i found this. project finest with seventy thousand euro to investigate the

they're also using a broad right and a lot of people were even comparing ferguson to war zones but those wars so shouldn't be that pilot anyway right like it's not ok for tear gas to be used against citizens in the u.s. side ok in other countries either so we're calling on communities and citizens across the world to sort of push back together at the same time because none of us deserve that kind of treatment from the state tear gas was banned in warfare under the chemical weapon. convention of one thousand nine hundred three however it was not banned from police forces to use domestically. while america's law enforcement only fires the chemical on its own people it remains the top supplier of tear gas to governments around the world tuesday's international call for action as of united everyone wants a b m c that's a great show of solidarity because it will put pressure on our leaders on everyone to know that hey everyone's watching you we see we're not going to allow this to
