diet conditions inside iraqi prison sparking concern from human rights groups we hear from one of them. and seeing it in their wings for the final time the mancs international airshow wraps up today just outside moscow we take a look at the highlights of this year's event. the weekly here on r.t. international live from our studio in moscow with nina do a tutor round up of the week's highlights on the top stories of the day welcome to the program. this week spoke exclusively to the russian lawyer at the center of a scandal over her meeting with president trump's eldest son ahead of last year's election it's the latest in the range of stories claiming direct collusion between the kremlin and team trump in order to get him into the white house we got the lawyers side of the story. we all know her name now on television the sky the telly

official night sky natalia vessel needs sky natalia the sound this guy of natalia vessel in its. wake up one morning and find you are the focus of that all the fire and kin stream media it. turns out it was nothing we managed to track down the elusive natalia vest on its guy and the woman who was almost become a household name in recent weeks was off to her meeting with donald trump jr last year and what she said she wanted to discuss the reputation of one particular man and his association with the magnitsky along with his past time of lobbying for u.s. sanctions on russian individuals this person who she says has most of mine did this latest russia trying collusion scandal. today i have to think about my safety first

and foremost about the safety of my family my four children it's been revealed that mr browder has been gathering information about me so who is william browder maybe not a familiar name for most but for thirty's in russia he's a wanted man quite literally he's wanted for tax fraud on top of this leaked us state department e-mails reveal that brown i was actively gathering information about the vessel and its guy ahead of when this scandal broke and that included personal details such as where she lives so given this information in beslan it's seems quite convinced that browder has harbored a personal vendetta against her perhaps something to do with the facts that he once lost a case in court to her now this was a two thousand and thirteen case in which a vessel in its car represented the cyprus based company previn's on holding which is owned by a russian businessman wrote to have accused the company of money laundering. the case was finally settled in may this year with no admission of guilt by

a preface on you or mr browder and his team have been gathering information about my family they try to find out whether i'm married or not whether i have children or not they found photos of my house and sent them to call parker he's a famous man in the house of representatives they shared all these details with people from the state department i don't know why he's doing this i can only make assumptions here i see today's situation has been heating up for ten days or so as a very well orchestrated story concocted by one particular manipulator and that is mr browder. and i want brown is best known for is his role in the magnitsky act this is an act named after a russian lawyer who was once employed by brown as company in russia he was later arrested in connection with a tax fraud case and he died was being held in detention browder later played a major role in law being for a set of sanctions to be imposed by the us on the number of russian individuals

over magnitsky death and brought it claims he knew magnitsky personally but according to vesa lipsky on this couldn't be further from the truth and this is where i don't try and do enters the picture and the big question for many is why is us the next guy was so keen to inform the truth about the military say with brown his reputation. this was the story that i brought to donald trump jr i wanted him to know that browder a person who gave up his u.s. citizenship is trying to manipulate people in congress and now we even know their names the media have disclosed them he was making all those connections even though he hadn't lived in the country for twenty years was not paying any taxes not doing anything useful in fact he's only mission was to go after his opponents while gaining some political capital it was nothing but retaliation from this man who did this in order to distract everyone with the big story is the government. so can you refute this information from the emails released by donald trump jr where goldstone

. i don't know that person and now we come to the name rob goldstone when don't turn jr went public last week it included e-mails from the entertainment publicist and which he claims to have information on hillary clinton which quote would incriminate hillary and her dealings with russia and would be very useful for donald trump's campaign to put that apparently this guy is just a music producer my guess is that this man is used to selling and promoting ideas some product so he decided that i would be this product for sale and promotion. and it was also within the goldstone e-mails that the mention of russia's prosecutor general came up leading to questions of a vessel in its skies possible ties to the kremlin. the prosecutor general's office of the russian federation deals with criminal cases that is the role defined by federal law and the constitution there's no me and the prosecutor general where are mine where is the prosecutor general. now that's on its guy

a woman unwillingly thrust into the spotlight is having serious concerns for her safety especially considering how she has a family and four children who are now also vulnerable to media focus but despite this she is by no means running away from the attention and says she is more of ready to testify in congress to the senate raised its thoughts let's put it this way i'm ready to clarify the situation behind this mass hysteria but only through lawyers or testifying in the u.s. senate. care to scenes have been unfolding near the holy site of temple mount in jerusalem that's after israeli police moved in with tear gas stun grenades and water cannons to disperse hundreds of palestinians there. was. a. palestinian is gathered to pray near the holy site in a show of protest against

a hike in security of sight when israeli troops moved into confront the crowd palestinians responded by throwing stones and setting tires on fire one of our correspondents was caught up in west tensions in the area have been running high all week. i. was . i think it. was. i. i was leaving i think i. was. the deadly clashes erupted following the

decision of the israeli government to implement extra security measures including the installation that was after the killing of three slim on saturday night two palestinian teenagers were killed in the clashes three others were killed in clashes the night before as were three israelis in a west bank stopping the temple mount. as it's known to muslims as one of the most contested religious sites in the world for jews it's believed to have been the site of two biblical temples and the al aksa mosque which is also like a tip that is islam third holiest site the temple mount is administered by the jordan base islamic religious authority we had polarized views on the ongoing conflict. well those metal detectors came as a result of a heinous murder on a holy spot these are not just metal detectors the. action out of money to change the already changed to school

a heinous murder takes place then security measures are brought in and then israel is blamed for taking the security measures it's a reaction to the first event which was horrible terrorism well first of all our dog. if the public knows the people who committed the talks with israeli citizens by the way people have to accept the fact that israel is the son of the jerusalem is our capital city and that the temple mount is the heart of our heart you accept those things then we can have a dialogue and conversation you saw on t.v. how the israeli army is do you think peaceful nonviolent people who are just praying their attack that i was myself injured two days ago by the israeli army when i was just all i did i wanted to pray in their dark does this sort of are sort of out of bullets and injured us i think the best alternative would be for jihadists to calm down or to be defeated and for there to be equal access to the

site for all religions including jews go put it with the palestinians remove the cause of all conflicts which israeli occupation and stop israeli aggression on palestinians this we we can achieve peace new video has emerged from inside an iraqi prison name as the power lay sharing inmates being held in dire conditions the video shows almost one hundred inmates who are set being held a month without trial they're packed into dark cramped with no electricity and nation in baking hot conditions as temperatures outside reach forty five degrees celsius got in the presence a people falling to lack of hygiene and daylight in may to suspected of links to ice although some of them claim to have no idea why they're being held. they said my name was in the database i haven't seen any court or judge i don't even know what i'm accused of a lot of names are the same since i got here eight months ago i've only seen the

sun once we really want to die none of us have received any visitors or relatives or family members they don't even know where we are in recent months rights groups have repeatedly called on iraqi government to investigate claims we've raised the issue with human rights watch. human rights watch visited these very same prisons in february and released a report where we documented in detail the horrific and enqueue inhumane conditions in which these men are being held there were rampant problems of the ill treatment and in fact there were multiple men that are dying in detention because of the sanitary and hygiene conditions in those facilities you know prisoner is whether or not they're being charged with isis affiliation and how basic rights and you have to imagine i mean these images only give us a small snapshot. we've raised these allegations with the

iraqi authorities we've raised these allegations with the coalition and i'm fortunately i have not seen anything to suggest that they are urgently investigating nor post investigations actually holding any commanders accountable unfortunately this is an old story in iraq where for years we've been documenting the most serious abuses and the government made pronounced that they will investigate but to date we have not seen as a single investigation leading to results and accountability. a senior u.s. general has suggested america's intervention in syria has little legal basis and more after this break. here's what people have been saying about reject. the only show i go out of my way

to launch you know what it is that really packs a punch oh yeah it is the john oliver of our three americans doing the same we are apparently better than. the c. people you've never heard of low down to the next president of the world bank so very. seriously send us an e-mail you can revolted against the dictator but what about the day after i think if we leave you keep did not get much. and so the way the national the resolution does not build nations. and certainly does not build states.

hey welcome back to the program now we mentioned a story earlier about a new video emerging from inside an iraqi prison in mozilla powerfully there showing inmates in dire conditions there and what you're saying all images filmed on the ground in you can see the iraqi cities liberation came at a devastating cost on the any homes have been left untouched by the battle this video was filmed by professor science mohammad marandi from the university of toronto and he can join us. right now to speak about what he saw welcome to the program professor mohammad marandi it's nice to have you here it's good to have someone who's been there why why first if you decide to go to visit the embattled city. well we were invited by iraqi counterparts mean

a couple of colleagues and they offered to take us to. we we accepted the offer and we visited both sides of the city there was huge devastation and we also actually the same group of people we visited. a love poem right after a liberation as well and what it was very interesting or very unfortunate was that the devastation in. east aleppo which was occupied by al-qaeda in syria. was very similar to the devastation that we saw in west. and the the bombing by the americans basically destroyed so much of that part of the city the west side of the city yet the western media said almost nothing about it whereas when in syria russian and syrian iranians were trying to liberate the city from al qaeda forces what the western media was.

talking about the russian air force and the syrian air force. bombing civilian targets and so on but what we saw in mosul was the same amount of devastation yet nothing was we see we hear nothing from the western media yeah i mean we have been discussing that very issue over the course of you know the last few months is as you probably know professors i. what i'm interested now is if we go back to your visit to mosul did you manage to speak to any of the locals and if you did what did they think about the way the city was recaptured from eisel. well there were far fewer people in the whole of the city of mosul than in aleppo in syria most people are still outside the city the city is. almost empty not

completely empty of people's lives have been completely destroyed. they were talking about the horrors of isis they all seem those who we spoke to bob and tara least for they were all they all seem very pleased too for the city to have been retaken but they were saying that the american airstrikes were very devastating and very. hurtful to ordinary people in that many civilians who were killed they also they more or less across iraq in the cities that i've been traveling back to god right now people have been blaming the united states more than anyone else for this devastation actually on our way to mosul we went through the city of tax rate where saddam hussein was buried and we went to where he was buried in the to this area was destroyed as well by the iraqi people and iraq is basically i've been saying that all this devastation since the dawn hussein and up to now the

united states is to blame more than anyone else because they supported saddam hussein they helped create that monster and that monster destroyed so much of iraq and then they also helped create isis when alongside the saudis and unfortunately the turkish government and the batteries they funded the extremist groups as we know from the defense intelligence agency document of two thousand and twelve and also from the wiki leaks documents from which shows that clinton hillary clinton knew that in two thousand and fourteen the saudis in the being isis so the iraqi people are very much aware of what's going on and they believe those who i've spoken to that forty years of devastation is more and more than anyone else. the united states is to blame alongside its regional allies from the one hundred regimes in saudi arabia and other parts of the persian gulf i mean you know you've told a lot and you've made a lot of different points there but if we go back to the devastation that you

mentioned in mosul and the horrors created by iceland you mention the u.s. as strikes people don't really discuss what happens afterwards when intervention has happened and. you know you are witness to yourself the absolute desecration of of the city how on earth are those people left they're going to be able to pick up their lives and carry on and live normally now. i don't think that's going to happen anytime soon on the devastation across the city and it's the second most important city of iraq is extraordinary and we see the same thing happening in syria even now the americans are destroying. by bombing it day and night and many civilians are being killed this is there are so many cities in syria in iraq that have been destroyed as a result of us would be. the turkish support and the israeli regime support for

extremist groups that there is no way that any of these cities are going to be rebuilt any time soon and i think that many people will gradually leave the country and move towards europe because there's just no hope unfortunately the iraqi government to spend doesn't have the money to rebuild the city because it's still fighting the war it's trying to liberate the west of the country. and let's look at the situation as it stands now i saw has been defeated in mosul but it nevertheless still hose holds lot territories in iraq in syria the war is still going on. all the days of this self proclaimed caliph that overall is there a long way to go still. while the people here seem pretty optimistic because both iraqi and the syrian government are making massive

progress on both sides of the border we do know that the americans tried to block the syrian government from reaching the rocky border both from the south and the north but that failed and so the two countries are are beginning to link up and their forces on both sides are moving swiftly towards the different parts of the border so the people here optimistic about the future with regards to isis however these are people who carry out suicide attacks they are from this there was basically and we know that have carried out. attacks suicide attacks across the world in in europe in north america in this part of the world so even though they may no longer hold territory hopefully in the coming months or a year or so but the threat of terrorist attacks carrying being carried out in these countries as well as abroad is quite will be quite high and i think that as

the iraqi and syrian government's make progress many of these terrorists will move towards other countries and they potentially will be stabilized and remember this being have the same ideology as buku haraam. other extremist groups that we've seen the saudis and their counterparts spread in the i was there a lot about how to miss him but no one believes that it will finish any time soon completely ok professor. run out of time university of toronto sharing your experiences. the final day of the mikes internationalists show is under way just outside the mosque crowds are being wowed by a dazzling array of arab batiks a twenty five. displays showcasing a huge variety of new acrobats the show has been running all weekend on saturday and one hundred seventy three thousand people attended it.

despite being an ash show there's also plenty of action on the ground where racing called drivers are challenging the pilots in the sky to a race these are pictures of one such race between a jet and a speed mobile the calls are taking on a variety of planes including a make fighter a yak train a plane and an aerobatic jet and another surprise for the huge crowd a chance to get up close and personal with some of the very latest in aviation technology which is exactly what kate partridge has been doing. if you get here above me that is it makes thirty five fighter jets just to prove that we really are here and also it's just behind me as well that makes thirty five because what we got to be talking about today is all seeing is military and so join me to talk about what makes that plane so unique is douglas barry he was an expert when it comes to military avionics thank you very much indeed for joining me thank you so let's just very briefly talk about this particular plane what is it about

the make thirty five that makes it so unique the make thirty five is probably the last iteration of a very famous fighter family of mccoy doing fulcrum family the thirty five is an upgrade in terms of engines avionics radar and weapons systems so this may be mean of the aircraft as a service but also do you. what is it about this particular show the sheer that's really impressed you what stood out for you during wars two of them are two things one just continues to develop his military capabilities secondly the chinese are in the arena and praise him so they're both here in significantly more numbers and showing more equipment new level we've ever seen before and i might see a show this also before we go let's have a quick reminder of all the aerobatics especially strakes and everything else that happened here at mike's. we've seen some amazing planes and because the flying the sky there it's amazing

really good so you take this for instance this is trace and it can fly they can also drive and they can spray. another thing that i've seen here is a flying taxi just like those from back to the future goes. on we don't need a road. and i had a sweetie experience. what it feels like to operate one of those cars so what you see now he says. yeah i've come to is basically the council sort of funds that make the operating if you've got this big car that looks a bit like the batmobile i spoke to one of the men behind this project and he says it's only a couple of years to go before we'll all be able to enjoy the ride over in twenty twenty if you go to dulles or just to pop up your mobile app and you will call for

an elevated walk through for. their talks to pick you up and where we're going goals believe thank you very much indeed well there you go ladies and gents it's a pleasure to be always thought it was back to the future but the future perhaps just so far away these are twenty twenty i'll be back at the top of the hour with more news to stay with us. in denmark this situation is all the more disturbing in that few associations exist to a company over indebted people some full of tears provide free counseling but mainly for those who live below the social minimum the others have to fend for themselves or call upon private specialist companies debt consultants since the two thousand a crisis such consultants have proliferated to denmark and take advantage of the situation to sell their services to people in financial difficulty. i guess provides
