russia says new videos claiming to show a chemical attack in syria are fakes of a smear campaign against president. c. then accuses donald trump of promoting violence against journalists off the president post wrestling video showing him taking down the channel. dancing seventeen compared russian called germany one goal to. that goal will bring you the chances and all the drama if you. thanks for joining us here live on all things a national on. the program now the russian foreign ministry has condemned what it

calls a smear campaign against the syrian government ministry spokeswoman marie has a lot of it was referring to video online claiming to show the aftermath of a chemical weapons attack ordered by president assad the social media smear campaign under the banner assad used chemical weapons has now started just as we predicted you'll see more of this fake videos over the following days the complain this plan to be on a grand scale of videos purporting to show victims of a gas attack by the syrian military flooded social media on saturday that was off of the white house accuse the syrian government to preparing to use chemical weapons. abraham says the accusation makes little sense. but surveys come out of the strong issued a statement denying any use of chemical weapons saying that this actually is a well known tactic used by dong terrorist groups according to the statement of the syrian army when these groups feel that they are on the fallback they try to stage

chemical attacks to stop them from advancing they are going to discuss the circumstances surrounding these attacks and it doesn't make a lot of sense for the syrian government wins winning in achieving actually substantial most regains a more than one from that it would do something that would enable the rebels to benefit from international support which would actually forced on me to bring its operations into a complete halt now when washington was asked to back up its allegations that damascus was preparing a chemical attack it failed to provide any evidence is there no bullshit explains that the us doesn't seem to need proof when it comes to accusing us of pressure alice said there's one hundred bad habits and that's how it is and he only does this when he's winning he ruins everything but doing something really stupid for no reason at all. take oh me now they crushing islamic states liberating vul swathes of syria and out of the blue comes this.

the united states has identified potential preparations for another chemical weapons attack by the saddam regime that said knows the probe will come sequences of a chemical attack it's the only thing really right now who could ruin him by giving his enemies pretext to attack him why would he do it because he's evil the murderous syrian dictator bashar assad has been a brutal dictator bashar al assad's a murderous regime in syria assad is the worst kind of brutal war criminal. plastic supervillain both stupid and evil beyond any logic the kind a villain but man would go off and america is batman. if mr assad conducts another mass murder attack using chemical weapons he and his military will pay a heavy price britain is already on board if it does something really dumb for no

reason again the u.k. will join the us in punishing him we think it's absolutely right if we can to prevent the use of chemical weapons and we will fully support any u.s. action and if you've been following events in syria recently you know they are hitting the united states has attacked as i said five times and what they say is self defense. problem is justifying the prolonged conflict isn't easy western voters don't want another gung ho i mean campaign they learned their lesson off the first few times the international community sick of reckless interventions the only thing left is to wait for asset to give them a cools and since he's a comic book supervillain that's just part of the script. john oberg who has written extensively on the war in syria says the western media campaign against

their side is verging on fossil the mainstream media the large media that are influencing the western decisionmaking process and the citizens opinion about this you take the case for instance of the totally black picture that is painted of of the bush era laos that now nobody can be as evil as he's been made in the western world it is very important when we are aware that knowledge good analysis is is all put in the background these days in international politics. i mean while washington says the preparations claim to have seen are similar to the ones carried out before a chemical incident in syria zelig province that was back in april of this week the un's chemical weapons watchdog confirmed the victims of that incident were exposed to sarin gas however it did not identify the perpetrator it also turned out of fact finding mission didn't even visit the site of the alleged attack citing security

risks there inclusions were based on interviews with people claiming to be survivors and post-mortems of alleged victims delivered to a neighboring country. statement didn't specify which country that was with us the findings with russia's representative to the group. there are expressions in the suit like the team was on the able to fulfill the little girl so all of these. daunting force of all we were unable to will determine where. the tool set is so the. teacher called the. side the. source of fuel bills. two three we can't books interpret. these missions as the

mission so. just as serious and perfect actions to put it mildly. there is a mission and that is these are people that. it was impossible to implement the chain of past that point the team. for samples from the schools and this is very thin but. we don't have something. you can buy somebody more. money somebody. just absolutely no evidence cole it will deal with. the u.s. president donald trump has taken another swipe at the media posting a mock video of a wrestling match between him and c.n.n. . it was on to it was

on top of trump has repeatedly accused c.n.n. of broadcasting fake news about him in one tweet he said he was thinking of changing the channel's name to fraud news c.n.n. . the fake media tried to stop us from going to the white house when i'm president and there not it was the fact is the press has destroyed themselves because they went too far i now see in response to donald trump's wrestling video accusing him of encouraging violence against reporters a statement went on to say the president should be focusing his attention on running the country rather than indulging in juvenile behavior political analyst charles alltel told us the network isn't entirely blameless in its dispute with trump. the case of c.n.n.

we are talking as regards trump and indeed as against the conservative elements of the united states of america of a nonstop this information campaign and when it comes to trump spewing fraudulent nonsense about you know what had happened in the election and after the election they've severely lost their way which is evidenced i think in the long term trend in their viewership but let's remember this is the network admittedly they later fired kathy griffin for holding up a mock severed head of our president and c.n.n. the same network is complaining about a cartoon i mean give me a break i would say that c.n.n. has a lot better things to do than they than they did for example a couple years ago wasting all the time on the missing malaysian flight and then in the last number of months here going on and on and on about this suppose a russian collusion hacking story which i i hope at this point has been dealt with

i mean see it's kind of rich for c.n.n. to call the pot calling the kettle black here. c.n.n. has been on the defensive throughout the week several undercover videos were posted online exposing attitudes at the channel to wolves russia related stories. the one seen in constantly in. russia that's for sure that this is ratings those ratings are razor of all right but honestly. it's just like. it's mostly a right now we don't have. proof but what do you think's going to happen this week with the rest of. it was going to be really. well you just saw roy a c.n.n. producer and one of the political commentators the last one van jones responded to the undercover video he said his words had been taken out of context and that he didn't think there was nothing to claims team trump colluded with russia. both

sides were released by both videos of other words upon method of journalism group project veritas founder who is already facing a million dollar lawsuit five on the cover videos thing against democratic organizations and activists we asked americans about what they think their media's coverage over a short stories is like are you tired of hearing about trump and russia oh yes actually i guess that's all i hear about problems. it's just getting tiring we're all exhausted but however however it has to be it has to be that the truth has to come out and the truth is that there was interference in the american electorate system but by the sentiment you feel like this is what the american people want to see on t.v. is they want to hear about trump allegedly working with russia not me not a my friend i think. that's something you know if it if there is something secret about something people want to know even more so if you just bring it out in the

open if there is something else come out if it's not then it's just go away and you feel like the media should be reporting on this more alas less i'd like to hear where these sources are coming from or who's saying it spares i know it could be my next door neighbor they don't have proof they need to drop it and we lost the people behind the undercover video what the russia thing. we were through the entire video out there i mean people can judge for themselves sometimes you have to infer things from the conversation but that's certainly my interpretation and i think that's the way the mainstream media for putting it the way the drug war and look at the line of strikes again in the president of the united states just to a radio is not a good ursule instagram's you know so i'm assuming your users well not just c.n.n. i want to make this very clear if you were in the mainstream media in america you know you are telling lies you ordinary people you are keeping stories you're keeping the little or none of them through you're on our list. week long headache

for the channel continued when it did a story about former president barack obama's jeans game that triggered quite a few jokes online. china has sent military vessels and planes to warn off an american warship claims

the vessel violated its territorial waters in the south china sea under the pretext of navigation freedom the u.s. side once again sent a military vessel into china's territorial waters this constitutes a serious political and military provocation the chinese side is dissatisfied with and opposed to the relevant behavior of the u.s. side of the u.s. guided missile destroyer came within twelve nautical miles of triton island it's part of the disputed island group which china considers to be its territory this comes at a time of heightened tensions between the two countries washington recently announced plans to sell arms worth one point four billion dollars to taiwan move to china it also raised doubts over president trump's efforts to improve relations with beijing jim dean editor of veterans today told us the dispute in the south china sea is unlikely to died out. this is part of a sparring campaign that i think is going to go on for quite

a while this this dispute over who has sovereignty over the south china sea is going to be a with us for years it really doesn't involve the united states because it's on the other side of the world but the u.s. likes to show the flag but china has major interest here because it's got a billion people a huge energy. appetite which it's spending a lot of its foreign earnings importing so a long range if there is energy found in this area it wants to lay claim to it and of course the u.s. is basically saying we will we will challenge that. germany has won the fee for confederations cup for the fast time defeating chile one nil in st petersburg auntie's neil harvey and stan cullum all of that bring your latest news.

ah the beautiful wife saying ok this secularly fantastic evening for germany the world champions are now going around the top seventy confederations cup winners with a well known victory over chile alongside me stan collymore you called this you said germany going to win it maybe not in the fashion you predicted though no i think that's a huge congratulations us to go to the truly national team as well it was almost nothing tonight i put all of their effort the bodies on the line my start to extremely well huge congratulations to them and i'm sure that they wouldn't want to lose the game in the middle of that aidid but when you send so many players forward so often there's always the possibility of that and you can get hurt and that's exactly how i said it wasn't a mano that we expected journeyed to win in that they were expected to boss the

game that chile would defend it was the other way around chile dominee to position throughout germany snatch that chance took us through this is shocking moment for the defender the central defender for chile he was coming to see the ideas on the edge of his own books and you just don't want him in possession the board you have to keep the ball moving in particular when you've got you know usually home reply use chasing around you to look to win the ball that's exactly what jeremy did you know neil was inside the stadium watching the game and he caught up with some of the players just afterwards so all quiet side the same petersburg arena this is where the competition began and this it where it has now ended they say football is a simple game for ninety minutes twenty two men run around the field after a ball at the end of it the germans when it was the germans who came out on top to make history because after all the world cups they had won after all the european championships they want they'd never got their hands on the confederation. i spoke

to some of their players after the match including embrace shone a liverpool man who gave his thoughts not only on the game but also on his at welcome here in russia i knew before that all of you have a strong squad and i think. i think a lot of people that old like you are a good team but they don't. good to be there when that it's on them but i didn't made him jump and i think who do you have in the film and i don't i'm a thing day. everybody was friendly and the amazing job pierre dorgan lation was perfect and we are looking forward to come next again just on the way out of the stadium i spoke to some funds here just bites of their pros and cons of coming to russia if you want to jump right g.m. c.e.o. is the last book even imagine if the next year i would come out and you know ok we hate you know mark again the next year two thousand eight hundred on their feet i want to have to move to be here again thank you very much snow we can look forward to an even bigger tournaments there are eight teams this time round thirty two next

we heard from your. legend the two time olympic gold medalist on dumbass you know for the faithful will keep eyes and nineteen she spoke to want to you know now i'm about to post impressions compunctions one of the things going into the tournament there were a lot of scary stories would russia be able to host a tournament of this size the press a lot of the western press are seeing russia has welcomed the world they've done well people are writing great stories about it how happy how satisfied are you without reaction from the press not just the fans here well of course soggy leg tractions from the press because it's important. to world to what who we are and what we are doing here and when they speak in a good day about us for us and to begin to have meant and of course i would lend to some few hundreds oh it's minute servando minutes to the ever seen and everyone in the country and any every year look for. to provide the best. jump and ships two

thousand nine hundred and just a word to legacy what what russia leaves behind here when it comes to confederations on the world cup how important are looking at a beautiful stadium here lots of new buildings infrastructure the importance of the legacy the importance of what russia lease behind after these events well of course . they will temper ships it gives as the huge boost for developments in the we will develop football in our country more than it was before because now we have a parts you need to have such a good beautiful stadium as you mentioned before of course you will grow up our football players throw from young so we create their new football school so they didn't have that that's we didn't have before because if you've never had there will temper ships so of course if a development of football it's a huge. huge cheer basket i would see and now all the infrastructure bill help us in that and we've tried to give you guys a sense of. the culture

a flavor of what it's like to be in russia to meet russian people to enjoy the culture of the cuisine and i want to take you back stan because this journey for us started two months ago when we sort of went on a reconnaissance mission around the four hundred cities we met some fascinating people people on the street members of the public celebrities when the first things we have a drum of this you learn a song be ready we should finish as we started i think are the. solder yadav. sing along because you. know you're. living majar all thank you see you again next year for the faithful will call car.

now over to the u.k. where the u.k. minority conservative government finally signed a deal with northern ireland's democratic unionist party to shore up its power it came at a price though with prime minister to resign my agreeing to provide an extra billion pounds for the province just over the next two years we have reached an agreement with the conservative party on support for a government in parliament this agreement will operate to deliver a stable government in the united kingdom's national interest at this time. the agreement sees the prime minister backtrack on a number of key election including reforms the pensions and benefits artes and as has been taking a closer look. i know i know you said he was a no nonsense oh. god instead of stepping down the british prime minister had

a different plan but it seemed like whichever way she turned there was potential for trouble the tories have penned a deal with the democratic unionist party of northern ireland which is opposed to hard bracks it something may has accepted as a possibility on top of that the d u p have been criticised for their policies on same sex marriage and abortion as well as previous links with violent party military groups in northern ireland not a perfect ally but attendee m.p.'s have been crucial for theresa may so much so she was ready to pay their support again with a hefty price tag of one billion pounds to be spent over the next three years that's in addition to the previously announced five hundred million and funds to northern ireland and who is footing the bill you may ask as always the taxpayer taxpayers resent politicians scooping up deals behind closed doors that invariably end with their cash being thrown wherever it's politically advantageous rather than where it could be best spent to recently called it a good deal and the do you be are delighted if you think the same applies to

scotland and wales think again this is the worst kind of pork barrel politics which has shredded the last vestiges of credibility of this weekend prime minister it is outrageous that the prime minister believes she can secure her own political future by throwing money at northern ireland was completely ignoring the rest of the u.k. despite the british government having now plastered together a solution the question is for how long will it stick after all the irony is that a mere seven tory m.p.'s switching sides would potentially be enough for a majority to slip away and say suture party fund it. opposition leader jeremy corbin claim the deal was not in the national interest but rather in may's own interest you voiced concerns about where the money was coming from and why no other parts of the u.k. are receiving extra funding but i asked the radio host out of politics professor for their views. geez it managed to get this group the little coalition together but the do you pretty hotel and see she's still a minority government i think she's going to have real problems lasting i certainly

think they'll be an election by toba i think she'll find it very very difficult to hold this government together because don't forget she's got simply was the seizure of three c. she's also got a. divided party on the conservative party a strong massively over the major issue at the moment which is breaks it out even more so it might make her a little bit was more secure for a few days but this is no answer i think it bites that obviously makes position more secure because with the do you play they have a working majority of thirteen of course they don't know your ploys to confidence and supply matters government isn't going to get much of a legislative program through but that was over didn't in the thin nature of the queen's speech in a sense it save the conservatives what could have been a great deal of trouble with some of their own supporters who were very unhappy about these changes its going to make it more difficult for the concert is to balance the books which they're having problems with anyway in terms of trying to

reduce the budget deficit to a manageable level. across talk is next discussing the criticism a major u.s. network is facing over its russia coverage see again next hour. one of the biggest challenges that any investigators face in dealing with cyber crime is. who did it what did it come from and as we've seen with many of these

attacks mean you've mentioned one across the recent run somewhere attack it's still unclear where that originated from so our clear message to government is to work together around the world to minimize this risk to grow those relationships and make sure that diplomacy is the key to everything. possible in the dubrovnik. fix travel destinations so it must be nice to live or is it. crowds of tourists disrupt the city's economic and social life. for us on this national get out of the. sun. as we leave school. while the city has tried desperately not to collapse all powerful corporations collect the profit of.
