father who's been on hunger strike for nearly a week now protesting his own detention. live here in moscow this morning thanks for choosing us this morning our top story than ten russian paratroopers returned home on sunday after spending almost a week detained in ukraine the group was captured when they claimed they mistakenly crossed the ukrainian border while on routine patrol paul asli is been following this story for us. the talks were complicated and difficult but we can now confirm that all ten of russian paratroopers crossed over into ukraine all back inside russia the negotiations were easy but thankfully common sense prevailed and the guards are back with us the soldiers were patrolling the ukrainian russian border at night when they unintentionally crossed over into ukrainian territory it was
4:02 pm
a part of the border that is not signposted they were later detained by the ukrainian security services such border incidents are not uncommon and on several occasions ukrainian soldiers have in fact crossed over into russia but russia's never made much fanfare and it's always ensured that they are able to return safely back to ukraine there was an incident early in august when around some four hundred ukrainian servicemen appeal to the russian border guards for humanitarian colorado that would allow them to bring their injured and into russia at the same time it would allow them to stock up and food they'd run out of food they'd run out of ammunition they later returned to ukraine after they wounded had been treated inside russia also around three days ago some sixty three ukrainian servicemen so to shelter on the russian side of the border this was just state the shelling they later to also were turned back into ukraine international law expert xander told us why he thinks the russian service men in the media. the ukrainian government wanted
4:03 pm
to the incident for political purposes they're trying to argue and have been trying to argue for a long time that they're not really fighting the people of the eastern ukraine but that they're fighting the russian army so here they had ten russian actual ten actual action soldiers and they were able to parade them and to put them on television and to show them as proof of the claim that they've been making for a long time that it is the russian army that they're fighting rather than their own the evidence does not look which was convincing that there are any russian troops there but of course one can have unconvincing evidence if people want to believe it and these ten russian soldiers unfortunately were if you like a gift from heaven in that respect. other developments to report ukrainian
4:04 pm
government forces have withdrawn from a village in the ganske region the world community has been the focal point of intense fighting as you can see in these pictures witnesses say large numbers of ukrainian armored vehicles and tanks were left many of them destroyed in all it's been four months since ski have launched its military crackdown in the east and since then it's officially been admitted that almost eight hundred government troops have died and more than two and a half thousand have been injured but no care is being accused of a massive cover up and to government forces say up to fourteen thousand military personnel have died or been wounded and that casualty numbers are being deliberately underreported then the last few days alone hundreds of government troops have reportedly been killed or taken prisoner in the town of in of a skin the donetsk region their entire battalions from themselves surrounded during a counterattack by anti-government forces one of the commanders of those units accused of abandoning them. again there reporting on the growing frustration in the ukrainian army. as the fighting intensifies and anti-government forces close
4:05 pm
in a call for help goes on answered reinforcements for trapped ukrainian troops also incoming it's not the first time kids soldiers feel abandoned let me be clear in europe i do not do it to women with a little more serious reality what i thought of was really a bloke levels to do almost all across the dark limits would relish the only response grow you see i was when i was still a moment with various guys i was too much it's a far cry from the tough talk of ukrainian president petro poroshenko talking of a strong country and strong army instead its young and often inexperienced soldiers as suggested by an alleged conversation between a commander and a tank soldier leaked online i thought i was five i. right i. yeah i was i was i was i.
4:06 pm
was i was out. of frustration is growing among the troops that will do is to pass it then they still do such as i think it will it look at the political dissidents that and the government the head of the interior ministry is locking horns with the leader of the radical nationalist right sect a group which is taking part in the fighting in the country's east if our demands are not met we'll be forced to withdraw our battalions from the front line and launch a march on to key if to carry out speedy reforms in the interior ministry yarrow with your bragging you have to see people whom you lead into illegal armed units you are turning the people who believed you into cannon fodder meanwhile losses on the battlefield are mounting. policy our teeth eastern ukraine.
4:07 pm
on the political front president putin shed some light on the behind the scenes diplomatic wrangling over ukraine in an interview he gave to the russian national media and he's my financial sums up the key points. i just came back from ukraine where we were working for one month and this time we witnessed a very dramatic escalation in speaking to me this very dangerous spread of violence in ukraine is. has his opinion on why it is happening. how can anyone say it's ok to open fire with artillery and multiple rocket launchers on cities do you really expect people to do nothing and wait for their own deaths so what's happening now is a natural reaction by the people who live there and who are defending their rights and one of those who took up weapons first let me put it has also commented on upcoming parliamentary elections in ukraine saying that it will nor is the tensions in the country. the candidates want to show how tough they are in the current
4:08 pm
circumstances it's hard to imagine anyone will advertise their peace plan there's no alternative to a military solution to the problem president putin has also stressed that russia cannot be indifferent to what is happening now in ukraine because this country has many ties cultural commercial social with a big neighbor and he has said that this resistance against the european values could be seen as the core of the conflict in ukraine. that that is the way and what exactly these so-called european values supporting coups or violent seizure of power and then crushing dissent with military might these what european values are now i think it's time we remind our western colleagues about their own ideals. president putin was talking just days after he met ukrainian president poroshenko in means can he has said that they agreed on more humanitarian aid from russia to be sent to eastern ukraine pointing out that this is a very important step forward because winter is coming and it will become harder
4:09 pm
for people there to survive through the cold. earlier this week ukraine's president accused russia of invading his country we touched on it but earlier on international media didn't leave any waiting to report it immediately running a story about a russian stealth operation nature to chimed in publishing a series of satellite images which showed what the military alliance claims was russian armor in ukraine and the pictures showed military activity in russia near the ukrainian border which nato says is part of moscow's so-called destabilizing strategy we spoke to daniel mcadams executive director at the wrong paul institute for peace and prosperity for his thoughts about it he says the credibility of the images themselves are open to question. well i think these were released by the same they were taken by the same company that the u.s. had used to relieve its satellite information about m.h. seventeen the elysian air flight the existence of guns by the rebels in ukraine and
4:10 pm
so i think it has very dubious credibility as a private firm i don't think it shows anything i don't think what most people in the west understand is that everyone on both sides with the exception of some ukrainians having american weapons but everyone is using russian weapons the line of russian tanks means nothing because we don't have the information to tell us where it came from as to whether russia has troops on its border if it's inside its border you know there were businesses so that if we had unrest on the border with mexico here in the u.s. you'd be sure we'd have a military presence there to make sure our borders were secure and a quick footnote to about the fate of the working conditions of some journalists their human rights watch is again called on care for information on him particularly russian photojournalists understand that he's been missing in ukraine now since the start of august kevin says he's got no information still of boundaries whereabouts the watchdogs directive for europe and central asia this is the rights of media workers are being violated by ukraine by both militia groups
4:11 pm
and the army that the authorities there do have a track record of detaining russian journalists. washington is leading the charge against the islamic state militants urging other western nations now to form a coalition against the jihadists in syria and iraq the u.s. is also stepped up airstrikes against the group but if that is going to change she can reports next it was the west that paved the way for radical islam to take hold in the first place. the u.s. president has diagnosed these lawmakers state rooting out a cancer why geisel won't be easy and won't be quick many are asking if the cancer could have been caught at an earlier stage when these lawmakers state group support of the syrian opposition was gaining momentum in the country and when rich donors in gulf states were funding and arming the group but until recently the west seemed more preoccupied with toppling the syrian president we will work with like minded states to support the syrian opposition to hasten the day when assad falls but the
4:12 pm
european union has agreed to bring to an end they arms embargo on the syrian opposition we are constantly consulting with the opposition on how they can get organized so that. they're not splintered and divided in the face of the onslaught from the assad regime for years the white house tried to present a picture of the syrian opposition as consisting of quote former farmers and teachers some within the intelligence community had a really big red flag that was alarming the administration and elected officials that the problem in syria was bigger than anybody anticipated but the problem is that the elected officials chose to have a moment of dumb and dumber and hear what they wanted to hear so you had john mccain patrolling the streets of aleppo thinking that.
4:13 pm
officer but that was seems of loss the sound of the middle of that report trying to bring you it again in full a bit later well we're talking about islamic state of islamic state has managed to create one of the most successful business models in the world of terrorism with assets worth i think it estimated two billion dollars reports suggest in fact a significant amount of that around two million dollars daily comes from selling oil to kurds in adjacent countries smuggling kidnapping is also a lucrative sideline with ransom payments bringing in around ten million dollars in recent years and if these figures are publicly available the islamic state publishes a corporate style annual report to attract new sponsors the radical group is also. media savvy very much. to join their fight that is when a cost or of a phone that. pictures of mutilated corpses of the so-called infidels and
4:14 pm
photoshop images of western troops and golfed in flames these are just some of the grotesque methods employed by the islamic state illustrated in glossy magazines and online and its attempt to spread its message a message that even al qaeda is uncomfortable with visit those what was striking. can produce some remarkably good visual graphics but nothing on the scale of isis the photography is hyper real there is no mix states markets and techniques are becoming increasingly more professional and widespread as its propaganda is found in different languages in news updates videos twitter accounts magazines and on t.v. the democratic they're targeting is you they're relying on the ignorance of youth distorting the qur'an of course but they're also using various kinds of stylistic mannerisms which the youth are familiar with from the street from you
4:15 pm
tube from twitter and so forth in other words it has a very modern look and feel it feels like a media extravaganza but it's suffused with excitement now if we take a look at the cover of the islamic states latest magazine they will see that it's a play on a noah's ark in which the message is it's either them or the flood and experts say there is controversy and fear to get more followers how are they doing that they are using hate propaganda by showing their adversary is paradoxically as killing babies is they also are i think a remarkably harsh in their language they present their enemy is indeed humanized terms of some kind of humanity just as the nazis did so they only use pejoratives like crusaders while watson nations might be trying to bawl my isis out of existence. ice's itself seems to have learned to those bombs at camp reach
4:16 pm
social media and therefore its existence online grow stronger than ever marina cos of our reporting from london forty. whenever a moscow adding to a quick break nope stay with us if you come to learn why not all european leaders are on the same page it seems when it comes to widening sanctions against russia to talk about that a lot more very shortly. different leader in syria now. members of congress of both parties have gone to syria in recent months has. told you can. still be peace to syria is going to be.
4:17 pm
economic down in the final. days. and the rest because i think he will be a prickly. elegant business militants in libya have taken over the u.s. embassy in the capital which was evacuated just a month ago stuff was pulled out because of the increasing list of the country with rampaging low loads of liberalization seizing control let's get reaction about what's happened and for the patent for good news as a kiwi joining us live hi o.b.o.
4:18 pm
make a barely vacated u.s. embassy it must be said so immediately taken by the islamists was a say about the security situation not good is it well into the straits that the security situation in libya is becoming even more precarious the united states anticipated. that this what happened pulled out his personnel and drove them to tunisia on july the twenty six you tube that was issued just earlier today indicates that the darling of libyan militia which has been based largely in misrata has taken over the embassy campout at least sections of the embassy compound there's been a patrol act that struggle that's been going on there now for several weeks over which militia was going to control of both the international airport outside of tripoli as well as the capital itself so three years more than three is not a factor isn't it since his intervention in libya the places of mass where is it
4:19 pm
heading do you think well i think the united states is trying to figure out which road to take they have a lot at stake their attempts to remake libya. they were in the leadership three years ago in regard to the destabilization of libya under the jim body which was headed by colonel moammar gadhafi they were heavily involved in the founding of libya for some eight and a half months which resulted in the displacement of several million people and then of course the brutal murder of gadhafi the country has not been the same since then even the parliament the general national congress problem and that was a doors by the united states has been funded by the u.s. had to relocate from the capital of tripoli to the eastern region of the country and to brooke so the country is really at this point heavily unstable and i think this is going to continue our for the time being it's interesting you say
4:20 pm
america scratching its head about how to solve this problem does that mean america will intervene again or should libya be left to solve its own problems in the comics over its zero problems by itself when they're already there they're utilizing apparently the united arab emirates and possibly egypt in the carrying out of airstrikes over the last several weeks there's been reports that as strikes are work harriet out against these islamist militias who are falling out of the control and out of the favor of the united states we're also coming up in less than two weeks on the second anniversary of the attack on the benghazi u.s. compound that resulted in the death of former ambassador christopher stevens who was a high ranking central intelligence agency operative and north africa and as well as three other high level u.s. intelligence operatives in the eastern part of libya that of course we're looking at the three year anniversary next month of the seizure of the entire country
4:21 pm
by the pro nato militias or who operating on the ground in libya so three years later we're in a situation in libya where the conditions have worsened for. majority of the population there also the united states method of regime change of destabilizing the secular governments throughout north africa in the middle east has proven to be out there abysmal failure but should it not take responsibility for it now and try and solve the problem what they're trying to figure out how to solve the problem the surgeons that they have utilized within the general national congress and their efforts to build up the military as well as utilizing. was a former cia operative a defected general of from libya during the nine hundred eighty s. has not worked there other equally powerful forces operating the ground in libya and the united states is trying to figure out what method they're going to use they
4:22 pm
may decide to get allows some type of military force to get in and sort of a beachhead in libya but this of course will only spark more animosity and more fighting a possible grow war about those who are opposed to the u.s. backed militias and south of the country a pretty grim prognosis is. the editor of pan-african news wire thanks for your thoughts thank you. from an bahraini human rights activist. has been arrested shortly after arriving at the country's airport two flying from europe to check on a father also a company that he recently started a hunger strike in protest at his own detention but tonight bill rodgers he's a key figure of course in the bahraini opposition movement he himself spent two years in jail only recently released he says the courts the beck and call of the government that. you would expect to see the judge you were going to file when a she fears that he's got a member of ruling family so you are in a country that does not respect human rights there judiciary system does not meet
4:23 pm
with international standards a lot of criticism by international human rights groups and their friend alike like united states and what they do they don't care so far they were going and taking a lot of what i defended to court and using the court using the judicial system as a tool to attack human rights activists to attack photograph or to attack journalists to attack people activists in the social media so we are in the most repressive regime now we are ready now we are willing to hold the life of our. who's in his hunger strike we are worried about this woman take into consideration many women were tortured many men were. noble rajah so that he could veto the e.u.'s attempt to impose more trade sanctions against russia next weeks the country's prime minister called the measures meaningless and counterproductive adding that there's no point in supporting sanctions that could hurt the economy and did that was echoed to by his czech counterpart who wants to revise the block
4:24 pm
strategy the further restrictions thought to be agreed by european leaders at the summit in brussels would then be the latest escalation in a trade war since moscow clamp down on food imports as the e.u. tries to curb the impact of that and some politicians there got their own ideas on how to ease the saints. one day keeps pushing over it. would go well germany's agriculture minister there believing eating up the food which is supposed to go to russia could help local producers moneywise know supposed pressure on moscow early estimates though show the e.u. could lose up to seven billion euros over the litter and one hundred thirty thousand people could lose their jobs because of it. what you're looking at there european farmers already called the compensation these polish workers dumped several tons of papers outside the e.u. parliament building in brussels they're getting support from some politicians to
4:25 pm
thinking that sanctions were a big mistake. as we stated it does was different and sanctions and a trade war i know means to improve the situation on the country we have a spiral of exclusion that hurts the german and european economies many people who rejected the sanctions right from the start they have a right to feeling that this is not the way to achieving. sanctions or always prove that the political means failed they are useless and they are harming the population sanctions always lead to losses on both sides you can already see the backlash from the sanctions but in the next couple of months it will be even more obvious now. from the beginning it was the wrong approach because sanctions escalated the situation and did not ease the tensions it was clear when the imposed sanctions that there would be a counter reaction and the stakes would be raised and now because of that
4:26 pm
a lot of entrepreneurs as well as the general public in germany has been affected by that. so the e.u. may be losing money over the events in ukraine but it's still making sure nonetheless that kiev has got enough cash to keep the country going ukraine's president says that brussels is ready to hand out about a billion dollars in the near future that's on top of a one point four billion dollar installment already approved by the international monetary fund to get it though ukraine is going to have to raise people's household bills it's going to have to freeze wages and pensions to even introduce new taxes and that's not all the package includes slashing tax breaks for agriculture and allowing banks to repossess property but complying with the demands is going to be hard for a nation that's already in economic freefall its debt is expected to jump to more than sixty percent of the country's output the g.d.p. by the end of this year at that pace it could reach eighty seven percent in four years significantly than of course hampering ukraine's ability to pay its debts making matters worse is the receding economy economists predict a dramatic drop in the coming months as kier of digs to find another nine billion
4:27 pm
dollars to pay off lenders a former assistant to the u.s. treasury secretary told us that ukraine will need to sell its assets to western companies to pay that low. the government takes an i.m.f. loan asked to curb its expenditure as it has to cut pensions it has to cut government employment it has to raise money that it can use to repay the i.m.f. and part of this process is the country is forced to sell all of its assets to western firms if for example ukraine has any or all or gas deposits that could be frakt they will have to sell those deposits to western europe and the proceeds say the ukrainian government has to use to repay the.
4:28 pm
it's a story we're following at length a lot of course say they'll call while you're there a few and check out the story it might be worth a look pools of fake blood in a belgium airport what's not of that will tell you too much about it like that but the activists did have a brush with the law when they splashed paying to cross one of the. revealed why they did it on the website also to thousands of germans rallied to tell the government to get its prying eyes out of the private lives get more on that story so much more till you find it. home. the threat posed by islamic state terrorists will be highly agenda at the upcoming nato summit in the well cities of cardiff and newport this week as harry fear reports hundreds of already gathered to protest the threat of yet more military action may be made says the alliance might decide to launch itself into another distant war. the leaders the organizers of this protest movement against

4:30 pm
a part of new port this city and also wells capital cardiff which has also been caught up significantly in the security preparations including the towns of kilometers of security barriers being put out in the center of the south wales cities the police are trying to do many things first protect the nato summit itself second to also facilitate the democratic protests of peaceful protesters and third to try and keep wales and the u.k. secure given the increased terror threat which was raised just in the last couple of days in a big story coming out there where as we're following it throughout the course of the week now coming up with all that much more present here at international juice news comes a discerning eye of the world's top stories first the capital invested anywhere europe will be heavily reliant on russian gas for years to come katie pilgrims go to war but after this short break.
4:31 pm
the for. the first speech. this month show bush's transports gets a facelift in each city board we make the most of the song is on the first signs flourishes in tomsk and we check out some carlos a. technology some day just here on r.g.p. we've done the future cover. the costs go up the try to play. a pulling out of. your life for the short changing every minute.
4:32 pm
and. the money oh oh well. my. life ahead. plus the thing that's setting all time place cases most elite clubs. sometimes for nothing which plays this season and it's important. to look just keep still we can still be just a.b.c. be a stage eight look to be. the teacher was to. play . gender trumpet symbolizes the gender madness in swedish academy here because i found this. project foreigners seventy.
4:33 pm
to investigate the triumphant from a gender perspective. play that welcome seventy capital which made. by their little so my brightest of the temperatures will now gradually begin to decline at least in this part of the all that away which means gas is going to cost even more for the show your needs to keep warm when also coming up on business cold but it takes a britons wages are in decline i want them to most there's international cost to these children a college student last time he's found that magic will so i will see how that works
4:34 pm
months old still to come but first we're going to get stuck in because credit rating agency fitch has put a big spot in europe to reduce reliance on russian gas fate says that europe will remain heavily reliant on russian gas for at least another decade and that with the lack of alternative source is that means that the options well limited at least according to fit in a way and will remain so for at least the next ten years now we're talking to the editor of business in new year old boy it's good to get you listen what did you make of the fitch report the findings europe's too dependent on russia is a. indeed i mean it's a question of politics versus economics and right as it comes out of the crisis it's been in five years we'll go back to growth and growth means you consume more energy and energy has to come from somewhere and the infrastructure these two huge
4:35 pm
pipelines that run into from russia to to europe is the infrastructure to deliver this energy. however the politics of it is that given the truly terrible relationships between europe and russia as a result of the ukraine and indeed you know there was an increasing income for ability of. russia over the past years but europe is looking for political reasons to diversify its energy supplies and get energy from somewhere else but there's nothing bad to replace there's no other alternative to russian gas and i want to ask you we have had siphoning off of gas before by you cry do you think that that could be another scenario going into this wind to oil. at the moment the ukrainian story is just full that's about fifteen thousand billion cubic meters of gas but that's not enough to get them through the wind winter they need another five to ten
4:36 pm
billion cubic meters and the problem you face is has no money at all to pay for it and what they've done in the past is so simply siphoned off some of the gas that's on its way to places like germany western europe to proms other customers and they simply siphoned off what they need for themselves and then this is effect sort of stealing you have to pay for the gas or at least it goes into the bill of what they owe russian people have been saying we want to wind down our dependence on russian gas because it's an unreliable source of energy it's not a reliable supplier of energy and so much as you said explicitly and repeatedly stick to his contract and the instability of the unreliable unreliability that's come into the equation is that. so bankruptcy crying middle what happens when that negotiating or deciding on sanctions because they do have this dependency which is evident for everyone to see now what does that exactly mean all they can to be held hostage well what is i mean held hostage i mean that implies the threat that russia
4:37 pm
will turn off the gas to europe. the colonel said he said that he will not do that and never do that but the irony of the situation is the only person that's an issue threatens to turn off russian gas supplies to europe is ukrainians and us in europe since the other day he said we might turn up prices supply to the rest of europe as a way of strike back to russia and it would help russia because you know that gas remains a significant. threat in the current is very concerned about its reputation for viability and would not do that and so therefore left in the city situation we're going to talk about sanctions to use shouldn't use it as a weapon and the russians are saying well we're not. music is where you bring it in the middle of using it and threatening to it once or three. binaries thanks so much we appreciate your time as usual. in
