france england may be getting not the favorite because you have to choose on the view i think spain using you're going to have to because brazil is playing really well we know germany would be very game germany is generally. they've been if you're not winning the cup they're in the second place between the if semifinals they are always fighting. has stopped sort of speak to bring this morning. obviously you've talked plenty about the big names the favorites the belgians the english and all that but let's talk about the teams which can be considered as dark horses and one of those teams maybe costa rica which as we now know has been drawn together with the likes of switzerland cost brazil and. and now i have here the play former costa rican national team player former west ham united and manchester city player we thank you so much for joining

beaten to say you can go straight to the next round we have this because belgium who we know everything about them so. i think that game will capture everybody's imagination at home we feel an exciting thing a team that are only going to get better but we are a team that some experience of those big matches well the last couple of games of seeing that they don't want. to repeat korea has been putting some youngsters in there you know which didn't play too badly but then you got your experience should be given one spot if not to put it so i think is a. big a big british and you know do the walk up is a very nice computers and the b. can be discerned and i see your the weather will be better.

just. it is r t international art exhibition devoted to the concept of marty is sparking controversy by featuring terrorists alongside the likes of socrates and martin luther king jr and those behind the show so they want people to think about what mark here don't really means. all of our picks up this story. an exhibition called maltese museum has just opened in the german capital alongside socrates and mostly seeking junior it places those that flew planes into the world trade center at the attack is of the but cyclone theatre the suicide bomber that killed forty people on the moscow metro saying that they are all examples of people that gave their lives for what they believed in it's all part of a festival of knowle the new european oh it is the brainchild of today both the organizes and the artists themselves refused to either give us an interview or to

allow me to film the exhibition they did send this e-mail. what do the people of bilin think about must militarists being venerated in this way is it right to put these people on display in this type of exhibition here and don't know from you know why it was just a reference i think that people would have differing perspectives obviously lumping different groups of people together is always a complicated subject because they come from different backgrounds i don't know i don't think so why. just be at two different types of people and it's not the same when we agree with even perspective on all of this is not for us to decide because react is i pretty much yes the exhibition is about is about moving the psychology behind most of them or towards people who do certain things it's not a problem as long as the exhibition focuses on the differentiation of martyrdom that could potentially lead to murder curses martyrdom that that you know the civil

rights for example like that's just basic human rights the motto or. die only for themselves. believe yeah yeah in what they have believed and now on the murder because they killed i'm not that person are many other persons i don't think that. but you put this together the artists had previously explained to the media that the idea was to try and put yourself in the mindset of somebody who is willing to die for what they believed in even if that belief was horrific to you a sensory experience using lights and sounds to try and explain the old adage of one man's terrorist being another man's freedom fighter. the point is to present a complex view on the world of martyrs and we understand that everyone has a different perspective but it's the personal perspective that matters in this

exhibition but for some it's impossible to see the artistic intention beyond the reality of an exhibition that places mass murderers alongside civil rights champions peter all of. the government has given washington post mission to use drones and anti terror operations in their country that's according now to multiple sources r.t. easy go to down off breakdown of what impact that could have drones one of america's best loved warfare tactics is reportedly coming to africa's west coast. a potential new pin on the u.s. bombing map as washington pushes ahead with its anti extremist campaign on the continent a leaked memo outlines the knots and bolts of the deal between the pentagon and the ship calling for arming of the surveillance drones operating from a local base also an additional troops deployment. this operation supports the long

term strategic partnership between a donkey states in nigeria as well as the on going if it to counter violent extremism throughout the region all in the name of the war on terror since nine eleven the pentagon has been hell bent on dropping bombs from you on afghanistan yemen pakistan somalia the line up goes on really but for civilians in those countries a distant buzz up in the sky can be a death warrant in fact a u.s. drones have slaughtered someone and a half thousand civilians according to an estimate by the bureau of investigative journalism and the figure shouldn't really come as much of a surprise to anyone who's seen what has been among the drone style gets.

the same unit which would be in charge of drone operations is standing accused of killing ten civilians in somalia this summer something the u.s. africa command has denied now that the u.s. is apparently planning to open a new front in its drone war this could also mean more work for the pentagon's p.r. machine. done of. a month ago the deaths of four u.s. soldiers in an ambush in asia revealed america's military presence in the country it's something even senior u.s. politicians seemed unaware of american troops were deployed under the obama

administration to help needy jerry and forces fight local terrorist cells in african affairs analyst lawrence freeman says that west african countries can be put under a lot of pressure by various western partners probably less than a thousand troops in this year and this will now i think the feeling crease that over a thousand this is the first time our armed drones will be flying so this is a big problem for the near government and for west africa and for all of africa. is now allowing the united states to carry out these kinds of military pacts this strategy will not work it's not going to be successful without a larger strategic picture and the african countries now are being pressured by the west in the chopper ministration to allow these armed drones in other military

buildup and i'm sure it's going to cause in many many internal problems and it will not solve the problem of terrorism sixteen minutes past the hour here in moscow it is odd to you watching the former u.s. national security advisor michael flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the f.b.i. over his links to the then russian ambassador to america more on that and other stories after the break. join me every post on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics. business i'm show business i'll see you then. protocol is more than just money it's more than just revolutionary it's. all that sucking and every asset class noun to the history of humanity into one glorious up

to who knows where. there is no center in the united states political discourse it's all center right ever since the clinton people came into power the center right has become the right and there is no peace party that exists in my country and i don't see any evidence of it except this third party that is so criticized the green party. it is good to have you with us today the former u.s. national security advisor michael flynn has pleaded guilty to lying to the f.b.i. over his links to prevent a russian ambassador to america sort of. with the latest details he is our

correspondent. we have michael flynn pleading guilty to charges of making false statements to federal agents now this is a guilty plea and it's been entered in court at this point he's facing a sentence of between zero and six months in jail as well as a possible fine of up to nine thousand five hundred dollars now of course the mainstream media is in an uproar there's talk about the rush investigation all kinds of things are being made in the press this is being treated as a very big story on a very earth shaking event but it's quite interesting let's recall how michael flynn stepped down as national security adviser let's remember donald trump's explanation of why he left the administration let's take a listen the thing is he didn't or vice president. properly and then he said he didn't remember so either way it was a very satisfactory to me when he was serving in the trumpet ministration mr flynn

misled vice president pence and now it appears that he's pled guilty to misleading federal agents now at this point you know the white house has come forward and said look this charge doesn't implicate anyone other than michael flynn he himself it looks like he's pleading guilty to misleading federal agents now it's been well over a year since the u.s. presidential election investigations have been going on for months and yet there seems to be no sign of this vast plot involving donald trump and russia this vast conspiracy that mainstream media seems to be so determined to find hasn't really come into fruition we've had several indictments at this point individuals who misled federal officials made false statements are now facing criminal charges but as of yet the collusion story isn't really materializing political commentator. says donald trump is on likely to be badly damaged by the latest development sure

he lied to the f.b.i. why he chose to lie about these meetings that with. i don't know what he did and he pleaded guilty for it now they're saying always going to tell everything about trump and coercion or what the hell why not have this relates to kowloon whom this is all president elect trump asking or or someone on his staff saying hey reach out to foreign countries by the way the great and the mccarthy former federal prosecutor writes today it's commonplace for an incoming national security adviser to go to foreign countries and talk to his counterparts or reach them on the phone in anticipation of a new administration there's nothing here that's that's that going to get trumped war or you're in trouble. when duress has imposed the nationwide if you have it super long rest under obligations of ballot stuffing in the wake of the
