i. i now when the european union is negotiating nation trade

agreements they are trying to put into those agreements human rights courses which essentially say that these countries most live up to what the european you. union says our standards on human rights and yet it's refusing absolutely refusing to condemn something that's happening in one of its own member states which any reasonable person would say was just provocative in an overreaction if people want independence then you should at least give them the option of a vote the fact that the spanish government has refused to do so and has cracked down in such a dangerous and ridiculous way has actually caused more i feel more feelings for independence from ordinary cattle and super ups previously would have thought it was fine. meanwhile pro independence sentiment well that is on the rise right across the european union in more than a dozen countries minorities are vying to have their own state for example in

belgium germany and france and it is not just catalonia that's how the referendum on the issue you probably remember this well back in twenty fourteen scotland voted not on this occasion to break away from the united kingdom but this year a second referendum was proposed by the scottish government in the wake of bragg's it although the current tory government has ruled out at this stage in of the vote later this month the talian regions of long body venator they're also holding votes on autonomy we spoke to stefan of barry's an m.p. invented terms parliament who says it's important to listen to the will of the people. very neutral region and the minute the people are very rules look at the lonely people and many of the cerebral wind up in new york will be. the reason people are illusion we want to. vote we may come from young people or use a more soup or the finger from the mission or the just be recolonized we have got

it down to montenegro for example but there are several for you so being more free to be not in a crowd the government. meanwhile spanish authorities claim that the vote is illegal and unconstitutional and the e.u. commission has issued a statement in which it refuses to condemn the police violence and expresses its trust in spain's prime minister we will be keeping go across this developing situation any new information comes in we'll bring it straight to. america is now mourning the victims of the deadliest mass shooting in the country's history fifty nine people were killed in the massacre at a country music festival in las vegas and more than five hundred others were injured sonny melton was at the concert with his wife he was fatally shot in the

back as he shielded her from the bullets denise byrd it is died in her husband tony's arms just minutes after she posted a photo of the two of them together at the concert. was a single mom who leaves behind four children jenny parks was a teacher in los angeles she was also a wife and a mother of two and another victim also leaves behind three children here is how events unfolded on sunday night.

we need. to get people out of the hospital ok. liz.

now the gunman was located on the thirty second floor of the mandalay bay hotel which overlooked the festival he broke a window before unleashing a shower of bullets on the crowd below the police stormed the room they found the body of the shooter as well as twenty three weapons including a handgun and several rifles witnesses have been recalling the horror of the rampage. ever whoever shooting. put a new clip in new magazine start shooting again and there's so many people around here that are i mean they were all dropping. so they were hurt or they were injured or they were dead and we just kept running and you can just hear the rounds almost like creeping up on you. make those shots don't start you don't hear that it's like being in a word alone. in just the fact of having to run over. to

you it oh. i just kept thinking plate we just need to get on to our good to see celebrating. because. it was. rediscovered a prison make it so you could ever have is being able to live with. sixty four year old stephen paddick lived in a retirement home in the volga he committed suicide right after the attack police say he had no criminal record and no military background also according to the f.b.i. he wasn't linked to any terrorist groups despite claims made by islamic state. authorities say they found twenty three weapons in the hotel room nineteen more

were discovered it he also reportedly had two devices with him called bump stocks now these allow a shooter to legally modify a semiautomatic weapon into a fully automatic one that would also thousands of rounds of ammunition apart and explosives were found in his car security analyst charles shubert says that it's impossible to prevent such attacks considering nevada's gun laws given that the initial acquisition of the weapons themselves is in nevada certainly perfectly legal. needs to be kept of the amount of ammunition or weapons you buy and since it's also perfectly legal to buy the very simple mechanisms that are required to convert those semiautomatic weapons into far more lethal fully automatic or effectively fully automatic weapons there's really very little it can be done to then stop an individual from going to a high vantage point such as in his hotel room and then using the weapon and indeed any number of weapons in the way that he did and so i guess you're going to have

metal detectors at each and every hotel to detect such weapons and even then you're going to have a mechanism a legal mechanism in place to prevent people actually owning firearms and possessing them in this way there's nothing that can be done to stop this kind of attack taking place the fact is that america has a firearms problem. with the las vegas attack said a grim record after america's previous deadliest shooting occurred at a florida nightclub last year. russia has a new u.s.

ambassador we'll find out more about him after this break. in case you're new to the game this is how it works not the economy is built around corporate corporations from washington washington media the media. voters elected to businessman to run this country business if. you must it's not business as usual it's business like it's never been done before. but the whole existence to do something. they put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president or injury. or somehow want

to. have to try to be for us this is what before three in the morning can people get. interested always in the waters about our age. there should. ok back presenting it's out of this world space walk three sixty project this is the first ever virtual reality video from outer space.

new u.s. ambassador to russia jon huntsman has been sworn in to the kremlin by president putin that experience then void previously meeting diplomatic missions across asia when appointed to singapore and onto ninety two he became the youngest u.s. ambassador in a century he speaks. mandarin and also worked as a mormon missionary in taiwan for several years president donald trump considered him for secretary of state before eventually choosing rex tillerson also said business interests in russia with his family owning several chemical processing companies and he's done hawkins takes a closer look at huntsman's nomination. for met president putin shook his hand listen to his speech and took up his post officially him and his wife mary kay of course arrived in moscow just a few days ago he's got a very long and impressive c.v. it has to be said he was the governor of utah state serving that in that post twice he was ambassador to singapore and later to china under both democratic and

republican administrations he now has the task of trying to repair relations between the u.s. and russia something quite an enviable that has to be said given the complex relationship currently ongoing between the two countries in terms of how he sees russia how he sees relations between the two countries and indeed russia's place on the world stage he could be described as a bit of a hard liner bring some quite firm rhetoric about that there is no question underline no question. that the russian government interfered in the us election last year and moscow continues to meddle in the democratic process of our friends and allies jon huntsman has promised to hold russian officials what he describes to account during his time in moscow to end human rights abuses to meet dissidents suz got a lot of plans if you like a busy shows you'll coming up according to his own words given his very strong rhetoric outspoken rhetoric it will be interesting to see how exactly he moves

along with repairing those relations mr putin said today in his speech that they're not happy with the current state of affairs between russia and the united states that russia want to mutual respect of interests and a removal of interference in internal affairs finally adding that putin wants a predictable constructive and mutually beneficial corporation with the united states so it will be very interesting to see how that goes over the coming months and years. football's governing body fever has fined the german football federation after its fans chanted nancy slogans at a qualifier much for next year's world cup in russia the incident occurred in prague on the first of september that was doing germany's two one win over the czech republic alexey oshinsky executive producer of artie's new football program stan collymore show says that are cracking down ahead of russia twenty eighteen. well it's a double find from fee for to the german football association of about thirty

thousand euros and also the czech federation for five thousand swiss francs which is also about five thousand euros for crowd disorder the incident in question happened on september first which is also the anniversary of the german invasion of poland when the game the qualifying game for the world cup was taking place in prague and german fans some of which bought tickets illegally walked into the stadium set off flares started chanting during the minute of silence for the two check officials. and then chanted not to slogans so this made a lot of noise in germany because as we know germany is trying to raise its past when it comes to not isn't all that and even the manager of the national team your human love spoke about this in very fiery terms. this is what happened that some so-called friends used to stage an international football match to bring shame on our country with their disgraceful appearance and behavior indeed as i've said in germany this is a very sensitive issue but it's not even the first time that german fans doing something like that they were printing t. shirts getting ready for the twenty thousand world cup in russia with

a nazi slogan and also words that russia this time we're coming in this summer which is you know making quite clear references to that so what all this tells us it tells us basically that in any country things like that can happen but the agenda is always different remember last week when we had two champions league games in moscow between sparta in liverpool and c.s.k. manchester united the whole of the press was saying that you know russia is a place of naziism and all that but we can see germany which is trying to raise this kind of stuff and this thing's happening there we did have a few incidents minor incidents here in moscow but you know a crowd of fans walking into a stadium for a qualifier game on the day of the anniversary of the nazi invasion and chanting nasa slogans this happens unfortunately everywhere but credit to fee for their trying to root the south they're not letting these things slide and these two fair finds are very ample proof of that. i'm staying with the same you watching on t.v.

tonight from don't forget if you like the news on the go we're on facebook we're on twitter and there's always plenty more news available on our website dot com. economic development is all about numbers really pleased to report this quarter we earned one hundred six point. but what do we know about the other figures. when i think about the fact that our c.e.o. mike du made over twenty million dollars last year more than one thousand times the average wal-mart does that is c.n.n. . with all due respect i have to say i don't think that's right. is that just you know a free market would. people went from pretty simple financial lives pre nine

hundred eighty to the point now where people are the just totally submerged in their financial accounts and they're all in debt and what exactly devoid society did from the part of the government try to do that nicely mr. markham a few things worse. i say this is not how complex and work this is our car but lose one goes to sleep disastrously wrong. time to visit mosque al and talk to folks over there that was always the number one concern the curse of oil because if prices go up and you get lazy and not diversified because you are making huge gains on the oil price went down you know you're in panic mode and you need to pump more oil to get over the panic so the diversification of russian economy never came but these sanctions forced diversification stuff thank you very much the sanctions.
