latest worldwide headlines for this hour live on r.t. international. thanks for joining us today now this handshake right here was the key moment of an international summit on shoes day. and ukraine's president held their first official one on one meeting a short time ago i spoke about their meeting with. this was a meeting that everybody here in misc was waiting for with their breasts abated literally for hours and once it was over russian guy's name came out it was dressed obviously discussing some of the most pressing issues that were touched upon during the conversation with president poroshenko now one of the models for the biggest concerns in this regard is the issue of possible cease fire in south east of ukraine where fighting continues to rage now russian president has reiterated the point that was previously made by moscow on several occasions and that is the fact that this issue continues to be an internal issue in ukraine and russia can only
3:02 am
play the role of a facilitator and the dispute but if you're good in that it should be we didn't talk in detail about it and frankly speaking russia can propose any conditions for a cease fire or speak of possible agreements between kiev and donetsk or lugansk this is ukraine's affairs we can only try to help to create an atmosphere of trust during these negotiations that are in my view very necessary now of course there's also the issue of humanitarian aid to the regions of donetsk and lugansk where people are continuing to suffer a situation there is that of humanitarian catastrophe so both most going to have seemed to have made progress in facilitating some sort of an agreement we do not know the details of god but it does seem that the two countries are going to be working together in trying to bring relief to the suffering regions and last but not least of course there is the issue off the gas dispute between moscow and kiev
3:03 am
now according to the russian president the talks are going to continue in the nearest future on that and this is the issue that involves not just russia and ukraine a sister he has shown during the previous so-called gas wars between moscow and kiev customers in europe have also been affected because ukraine has shown its capacity for siphoning off gas that was intended for you russia's european customers. obviously with winter fast approaching this is something of grave importance knowledge is for ukraine but also for several european countries but all in all when talking about the meeting here in minsk we can say that it was a success and that was also the words that russian president has used to describe it. now people in eastern ukraine remain under a barrage of shells of course being launched by government forces here so it's only targeting rebel fighters but of course it's a residential areas like these that continue to get pounded.
3:04 am
i'm not in. my view of. very few. i mean one of the very latest attacks a large chemical plant employing three thousand people came under fire and it's not the first time that plan has been hit by shelling as our correspondent paula slip found out when she went to the site. the ukrainian army is closing in on the city of donetsk ukraine hockney of the government fighters this is my kiev case some twenty five kilometers away two chemical plants came under attack bringing the war
3:05 am
to a new level fire raged in the din it's krege and not far from the deadly sites around one of the largest factories in ukraine of chemicals and coal and as you can see in the last few hours it has come under shelling where the heart of the building has been damaged you can actually still smell in the air this smell of burning so there is firing from within here outside the city and there's also the constant fear that any moment now the ukrainian military will shell again we're trying at least to get to the center of the nantz because here it is too dangerous to show for just let me show you where. this is what is left of the show. but others fear and now the charitable could be on the horizon that in its krege and has nearly four thousand dangerous factories and facilities to hit on any one of them would pose a threat to the entire area and indiscriminate punishment to fighters and civilians alike we're talking about hours before they were graded in the atmosphere. because
3:06 am
we're talking about here which would be chlorine related. risks in most of these cases will be short problems. residents nearby the plants are not taking any chances with the result this is a second day where staying in the basement de i came into the apartment to get some things and then the shelling resumed so we had to hide again now we're in the basement without food without drink and without water or money it's been dangerous here since the morning some houses have been hit on the edge of the neighborhood this is part of the rockets that was fired from a grad and a solid launcher more and more these are landing here in civilian areas of course the r t the eastern ukraine and a russian journalist who's been missing in ukraine for three weeks now will be on the front page of

3:08 am
be to blame is artie's more in across america multiculturalism was once celebrated as the way forward but after thirty years of cultivates in it and britain it's now being blamed for foster an extremist ideology and directly contributed to homegrown islamic terror for too long the doctrine of multiculturalism has led to immigrants establishing completely separate communities in our cities these are to honor killings female genital circumcision and the establishment of sharia law in a city pockets throughout the u.k. islamic radicals should be challenged with the values of liberal democracy that's why you issue to do with multiculturalism in britain which i think has led to yes why zation and sort of boss remark upon that is a. i think unfortunately it is there is going to be an extent to it too little too

late its purchase police are now preparing for raids across the country in their bid to find out exactly who is just bodyguards that brits are suspect we had an american journalist james foley but many fear there's more than one jihadi john around and want the government to take more drastic measures therefore automatic suspicion that if you have travel. time that you are in some way involved in the conflict there and i think that it's only right that that suspicion exists and i think all of those individuals that have traveled to the region need to be investigated by the intelligence services and quite possibly by the police if they return to the home secretary currently has the power to strip citizenship from two or nationals who are fighting abroad this also applies to immigrants who have become naturalized citizens but the home office lawyers argue that a country can't make its citizens stateless and the other side of the story is

muslim communities living here in the u.k. say the part of violence has increased the extreme nationalism everything up over the adequate the medical capabilities of phrase their everyday lives dramatically. so i'm i'm quite sickened by the political right to constantly have a go at multiculturalism as of multiculturalism is the major problem we are getting a gradual sense of of a drip drip of cases which comes in from the trojan horse we had cases that came in from the isis affair they feel that there's a sense of collective guilt that has been placed on them not just why individuals that they know but also through the national papers and by politicians who are calling out that all muslims should on for this this so-called hate campaign is seen mostly on the internet but ennis and muslims being the frequent targets of internet trolls even a senior muslim member of a local branch of the anti immigration ukip party has found himself the target of
3:11 am
online abuse there's a sense of disaffection there's a sense of isolationism and i guess there's also a sense that you know some of the individuals feeling that this is also prejudicial in its own right by assuming all of the muslim community has to answer to something they have absolutely no control of the war of extra. an s.m.s. now rage and just as much as that of nationalism the problem for the government is finding a fine line so it doesn't end up falling into either camp arenacross of a reporter from london for it see the rise of prose you had a sentiment in the u.k. has actually forced the government to consider how did below with newly converted radicals the home secretary theresa may has outlined a series of new laws that will see people who travel to syria or iraq investigated by security services and police in fact those with dual citizenship will be stripped of their nationality and excluded from the u.k.
