in the russian. this year to the day since the u.k. voted to leave the e.u. though the actual divorce talks have only just begun the referendum result created a political earthquake the aftershocks of which are still being felt today we want our borders but we want our country. to go she will need to begin under a new prime minister. pass on my thanks to his mom for their rigs i said my. bloody difficult woman yes rex it means. global recession i've got a plan and. doesn't have a clue i was really leaving. no

cameron and allowed home secretary to resume aid to step up to the plate in the run up to the vote she had been a quiet remain but the desire to lead post brags that britain forced her to reconsider her position. bricks it means bricks it wrecks it means bricks it and we're going to make a success of it a year down the line that sounds like something from an alternate universe considering that to reason made called an election in order to strengthen her hand in the braggs it talks but ended up freefall in the polls and losing her parliamentary majority her atrocious result meant that politically her weakened government limped into negotiations with brussels earlier this week and bear in mind these talks were never going to be a walk in the park charm created. what. can be

concluded quickly. threats against a question that's been issued by european politicians commission was trying to bully the british people arguments over whether the u.k. would pave the e.u.'s one hundred billion gregg's it bill guaranteeing the rights of he uses isn't. as in the u.k. and who would get custody of gibraltar thought any issues but there is aroused took a back seat when britain was hit by a wave of terror for terror attacks in the space of just three months to be precise and many britons held to resume a direct plea responsible because she'd been head of the home office for six years before becoming prime minister. and with all the security and political chaos few people even notice that earlier this week brings it negotiations officially
12:05 pm
kicked off but not in the way that london would have hoped the british government's already been accused of caving into brussels over the brags that schedule and opinion polls now show that if the country got to votes again it would reject leaving the u. so just like two reason may the plan for braggs it went from strong and stable so weak and wildly within the space of just one. our special e.u. summit on breaks it is in its second day you know one of the major issues has been the rights of you you citizens rather in the u.k. you have the opinions of the british prime minister all the european officials seem to differ quite widely says he still none the wiser us the what the u.k. really wants to see you getting a clear idea of the kind of the u.k. government no kook what we're saying is that those citizens from e.u.
12:06 pm
countries who have come to the united kingdom who've made their lives in their homes in the united kingdom will be able to stay and we will guarantee their rights in the united kingdom i think that's a very serious offer my first impression is that the u.k. so far is below expectations and. risks worsening the situation of citizens while british politicians because over bricks at some of the e.u. counterparts still hope the divorce can finally be averted. you may say. but you're. going to go file page correction. if your government decides to organize a broad sweep i'll be pretty sad when it will never be outside that there are.
12:07 pm
some in britain still have that illusion which is a waste of time. before long we will begin to find out the extent to which breaks it is a gentle stroll down the smooth path to a land of cake consumption. we discussed this with former british m.p. george galloway and tom brooks the dean of durham law school. we are leaving the e.u. we will not be associate members we will not be norway we will not be switzerland we will be a free country able to control its own borders how of sovereign jurisdiction over our own laws and crucially be able to make such trade arrangements with the rest of the world as we like george talks about this wonderful exciting teacher that could happen in some type of
12:08 pm
a theory or maybe some type of world that could happen but it's not going to happen because there's no expects that it's going to be a certain type of practice that's going to be to go shaded by the people who are in government right now they're the ones who are going to see it through and i see no signs they're going to be making this this wonderful new feature that that was described with some comments about you know maybe extra trade with other parts of the world and and would be free at the moment it's all a lot of people peddling their favorite view about what the teacher might look like with absolutely nothing to show for it britain is an unstable place today it's not really because of bricks that it's because of the conservative government and gets reckless gamble to hold a general election only to lose it. u.s. led coalition leading anti i sort of offensive on the syrian city of rocker is
12:09 pm
blaming everyone that's at least according to what locals have told r.t. is rightly video agency despite the coalition's insistence that takes every civilian casualty seriously the grim situation on the ground suggests otherwise but i knew little about i knew that if this were what they are you had the guts of my family and your men to fit the model but i swear i assure you that i actually made it a medal but that is not as well it never has met yet it has met but you're the one you're the one that actually you know but didn't didn't have a date of as me and the dome that has you had before that and then has you would have moved on and i did have one. when it hasn't leninism what i want. to be. and has used a lot. did you jim she. did not. kill. or u.s. led coalition hasn't denied using phosphorus which we just heard mentioned there in
12:10 pm
its operations is an extremely toxic substance known as banned from use as a weapon the coalition says it only uses phosphorus in permitted ways during battle for example to create a smoke screen over human rights watch has voiced concerns saying the substance opposes a high risk to civilian life a leading force fighting islamic states on the ground are the kurds who are being robbed by the u.s. government however washington support for the fight is irritates its longtime ally turkey clearly more proport on how the us has tried to get around this problem. turkey was furious when it found out that the united states their longtime ally and nato partner was going into rock without them. we do not need terrorist organizations like that p y d n y p g and the rock operation let us work together to wipe out de. america the coalition and turkey can join

hands and turn rocca into a graveyard for dash. as the united states is aligned with two bitter enemies in syria the turkish government and the kurdish fighters it's got a tricky bit of maneuvering to do secretary of defense mattis says that the united states will eventually take back the weapons it's now supplying to the kurds after the defeat of isis and this is turning into no small matter at this point the united states is shipping in heavy machine guns mortars other small arms and even some armored vehicles it's totaling over one hundred million dollars worth of war toys a large portion of which are going to the kurds when it's all finished some five hundred u.s. military personnel will have the task of collecting it all in an area that's almost the size of pennsylvania maybe they'll knock on doors and say hey you know those weapons we let you yeah you're finished with them right and who knows what answer they might get the united states has promised to monitor the area and send out a monthly report that will include photographs this sounds like
12:12 pm
a great idea as the usa has already lost track of billions of dollars worth of weapons they sent to iraq and some of those weapons have ended up in the hands of terrorists there i think mattis made chromos inuits that letter which presumably was gone but it still knowing very well that it probably would not be believed and very well would not be carried out but he made it trying to locate the target the u.s. is supplying the weapons for that it is there the u.s. is old and. goals which seems to be to break a part of syria to load the u.s. to dominate a separate part of syria basically they want to go to syria. and in violation of syria and stubborn integrity a country is torn apart by civil war with different factions vying for power as civilians flee in chaos the pentagon has a brilliant idea send in more weapons just so long as they promise to give them
12:13 pm
back caleb mopp and r.t. new york. russia's the finance ministry has released a video showing missiles being launched from warships on a submarine in the mediterranean targeting islamic state positions in syria. russian intelligence is tracking eisel fighters who've been trying to escape their stronghold in iraq through the so-called southern corridor that's pretty much their only way out as the city has been surrounded by u.s. led coalition forces for quite some time now but we understand the fighters have been trying to go from two palmira the hamas profits and that's where they've been targeted in the latest series of air strikes from russia now as i still continue to lose ground a rocket this is certainly not the first time we've heard terrorist managed to escape the city in fact there have been reports last month of the kurds one of the main forces fighting isis opening up a chord or allowing the terrorists to lead the city of raka the kurds have the
12:14 pm
night this by the ministry of defense and russia have confirmed seeing the movement of large eisel convoy moving from towards palmira and these latest images released it shows six cruise missiles being launched from two warships and a submarine currently located in the mediterranean and the strikes managed to destroy and i saw a command center and several i saw weapons stockpiles in the province as well the turkish and israeli forces that are also operating in the area they have been informed about the strikes in advance but nothing is said about communicating with the coalition forces as on monday russia has halted the agreement of military cooperation in syrian air space with the u.s. after they downed a syrian government fighter jet near iraq on sunday. we spoke to ward winning journalist martin joy about the difference between the russian and american approaches in the country. if you look both of the strategies in the ethos of both of these big plays one on the american side there is
12:15 pm
a two pronged approach which is confusing and conflicting at the best of times america wants to support a large demographic of forces not its own of course but others largely kurdish who are supposed to take over and destroy isis positions but the same time the americans also have their own geo political struggle within syria against the assad regime. and of course let's not offer also forget. the other thing which is quite interesting is that their presence in syria is entirely illegal so if you contrast that against the russians the russians don't have such a complicated idea towards what they're doing or what their objectives are they simply want to hit isis and hit isis hard so that that extremist group can be completely eradicated. we've been speaking to eighty three year old woman who want to gender discrimination case against all the details on that for you off the.

12:17 pm
a result russia in the us. is washington strategic interest in syria. and when i say three year old woman has won a gender discrimination case against israel's national airline el al. gore survivor had been given a seat next to an orthodox jewish man on a flight from new york to tel aviv last that's a move. that he couldn't sit next to a woman for religious reasons but it gave us more details about the case. i spoke with a man and an ass why was this problem with my knees sitting next to him and he responded to a light clearly bad if it is said in the torah
12:18 pm
that man should not sit next to a woman. it's. that i did not think that was the case. there is no or he couldn't or say. that supported me and brought up law suit the first hearing was eighteen months after we. die our lawsuit but we're very satisfied with the result. they have all be no of each and unlikely heroine a beautiful israeli in a way wonder woman was able to beat our main airline. is going to implement this verdict to all its thousands of employees and if within six months someone else encounters something like what our heroine has encountered there. is open to an avalanche of lawsuits actually what the verdict says is that
12:19 pm
unless it shapes up there are going to be many many lawsuits it's illegal it doesn't matter religious feelings or non-religious feelings it is illegal to tell a person to move because of their gender what was wonderful about renee's case is that in relays case the flight attendant turned to her and said to our eighty three year old holocaust survivor please move yourself move to a different seat it's the flight attendants participation that made this case so clear to the court. of saudi arabia and other gulf states presented cuts all with a list of demands that must be met if it wants diplomatic term trade ties restored these were severed over doha's alleged support of terrorism at least correspondent paula slipper has more details tom has been presented with a list of demands from saudi arabia the united arab emirates parade and egypt four nations that qatar or trade and diplomatic ties with the country now this came
12:20 pm
after the u.s. state department questioned the motives of the gulf states move now that it's been more than two weeks since the embargo started we are mystified that the gulf states have not released to the public nor to the qataris the details about the claims that they are making toward. the more the time goes by the more doubt is raised about the actions taken by saudi arabia and the u.a.e. at this point we are left with one simple question were the actions really about their concerns regarding carter's alleged support for terrorism or the about the long simmering grievances between and among the g.c.c. countries now the next day the us secretary of state breaks to listen issued a statement saying that a list of such demands has been prepared he added that he hoped that the demands would be reasonable and actionable saying that we understand that this list is being prepared it's being coordinated by the saudis the end of artie's each option
12:21 pm
is and the bahrainis and we hope that it will be presented to qatar with and will be treated as reasonable and actionable now the list includes thirteen demands in total here are some of them first and foremost to curb all diplomatic ties with iran the list allows only trade and commerce with iran that complies with the u.s. and international sanctions will be permitted now the two states share the biggest natural gas field so that could be a problem as well it calls on shutting down al-jazeera and all qatar funded news outlets to terminate turkish military presence in qatar to any joint military cooperation with turkey that is taking place inside of qatar the list say is that there needs to be agreement to all demands within ten days or the list becomes invalid now the document does not specify what the countries will do if qatar refuses to comply so of course it remains to be seen whether qatar will view these demands as either reasonable or actionable. off of the moms were published in the
12:22 pm
media the foreign minister of the u.a.e. you accuse qatar of leading them to the press. and it's up to undermine serious mediation or yet another sign of what he called us policy there's also been reaction from those mentioned in the mobs as well al-jazeera international. news channel called the gulf states demand for the closure nothing but an attempt to silence the freedom of expression in the region in response to a demand towards qatar to abolish turkey's military presence in the country turkey's defense minister said that would be an intervention in the country's bilateral relations with the turkish base in qatar is a guarantee of security in the gulf and demands for its closure represented interference in its ties with. political commentators say it must think such tough demands have been made by gulf states to strip qatar of its most powerful geopolitical assets raise some maximum demands in order to empty the hands of.
12:23 pm
the merits and winning aces that it had that maybe. we wait like its ties with the muslim brotherhood like its ties strong ties with hamas gave him a say in the middle east peace in the palestinian he's really should also use the strong ties with iran that made it a player a good actor in the region that could play both ways also al-jazeera they care a lot for al-jazeera network and they know how strong and powerful it is in promoting views so they have raised all these demands in order to empty the hands of those from the winning aces that he had and made a powerful act there on the southern rooms of the persian goals. our major gas pipeline project between turkey and russia has entered a new phase in the black sea president putin was on board
12:24 pm
a specialist plane ship to see the work for himself also on board was of. i just came back from a gigantic vessel called the pioneering spirit imagine the size of four football fields well that is how big it is what is the pioneering spirit in the black sea well it is here for the toughest job in gas pop like construction deep underwater stages of the turkish stream at one point it will get to two point two kilometers below sea level project is so crucial for russia that the president decided to fly in for the launch of the toughest stage that i was telling you about but it's also very important for turkey that's where the pipeline is heading towards so on this special occasion a lot of our putin made a phone call to turkish president tired on right from pioneering spirit but moscow's ultimate goal is to use the turkish stream to deliver its natural gas to
12:25 pm
south eastern and southern europe that's the extension that moscow is looking for but you know russia's attempts to build a pipeline in the black sea for its european customers that really turned into a solid take the south stream project something that was never completed it was meant to be a pipeline from here to bowl garia that got scrapped because of pressure from brussels then moscow came up with plan b. that was the turkish stream but this project was also and jeopardy it was hold to it for a while after ankara shot down a russian fighter jet over syria then when relations war restored in two thousand and sixteen the project got was started and now i saw it with my own eyes it is fully underway and it is splendid to be completed by the end of twenty nine taking the maximum capacity as expected to be more than thirty five billion cubic meters
