don't piss off. the dutch foreign minister to quit after revealing that he lied about a meeting with the russian president in two thousand and six reclaim mr putin spoke about ambitions for a greater russia. enough of your sweet nothings of this uncertain approach of breaks in anger that few remaining has come from your own government i except that this morning i'm not going to. persuade. those opposing pricks into patrolling the countries boris johnson continues to throw is backing behind the youth case exit from the european union. cradle of terror report from one of the tourist paris suburbs where dozens of residents have already been recruited by islamic state.

of the afternoon near moscow this so wednesday thanks choosing r.t. international commons all those stories and a lot more in a moment but first want to take you about the breaking news story that seems to be under control now but we've got some more pictures and updates the shooting incident outside the national security agency h.q. for me these live thanks for these pictures but an hour ago authorities surrounded and handcuffed a man there after a black s.u.v. ran into a barrier about seven thirty in the morning local time authorities confirmed by phone that one person was injured in the shooting outside the base and was taken to hospital president trump we hear is been briefed on the instant the f.b.i. is sending teams to the seed trying to work out what went on the national security agency of course america's top intelligence agency in fort meade for now the circumstances of what we're not clear still it does seem though you can see it now that s.u.v. that black s.u.v. . very much in the forefront of what's happened here you can see the airbags have

been deployed there are a lot of stuff that looks like it was in the boot has been dished out onto the roadway there and the people that are much closer to that some early pictures seem to show that s.u.v.s got bullet holes in the front similar instead incidentally may be nothing to do with it or may be totally different circumstances but happened back in twenty fifteen at the n.s.a.'s gates then the twenty seven year old was killed the passenger was wounded when police opened fire after the ride did indeed try to gain unauthorized access at one of those n.s.a. gates at fort meade but we're also hearing as well reports that it's quite close to one major roadway and it's easy in fact to turn into one of those access roads by mistake and find yourself at the gate because. since all sorts of alarms happening there the security guards will come straight out if you don't do what the say there will be trouble and we don't know what's happened here we'll keep you posted the.

dutch foreign minister has been forced to resign after admitting that he had lied that he had a meeting with president putin back in two thousand and six when a full of a dozen a lot of meters that from vote was harvested. for a jewish. and emotional resignation departure comes just a day before he was supposed to meet his russian counterpart in moscow let's look at whether those false claims were worth it. because. in early two thousand and six i was advised to move putin's countryside house i stopped at the back of a room or a meeting was being held but i could hear very well vladimir putin talking about a greater russia he said this included russia bella reuss ukraine and the baltic states and that kazakstan would also be nice to have. chill stories no knowledge

that he was a lawyer that he wasn't even in russia in two thousand and six he said he did it to protect his source a person of presumably attended the meeting you know describes it as the biggest mistake of his political ric career and it looks like some of his fellow citizens couldn't agree more. not at the ville more boston that's a narrative that fits into a frame that you want to create but it slowly turns on you look like a boomerang because it becomes this thing that gets linked to his foreign policy experience from the trustworthiness of the netherlands is questioned internationally making things extremely difficult there's a benefit if the need or lands wants to remain credible you can't have people saying that your minister is lying about being at a specific location at a specific time that's not right especially not about that place and that time. but he seems to have at least found a nice show on social media twitter exploded with a house tag held that was right there featuring photos shot pictures of him at some

a storage events and visiting landmarks perhaps he did meet president putin after all if you are believe those images. however back in twenty sixty when he first made his claims no one questioned them and at that time russia was frequently accused of many things including aggressive politics in response now to the news the dutch from mrs quickly jump to the defense of the now former top diplomat it seems knew for a while saying that the remarks accurately reflected russian policy at the time especially support a bit further with journalists feel clark hi there neal so are you at all surprised by the reaction of my campaign is to defend being a senior government official of his colleagues after admitted to him that that he lied apparently the promise knew about this a while before he actually came clean as well. what is quite scandalous really and morning darlington is kevin of the sort of level of discourse in western late circles isn't it that a man back in twenty sixteen a leading western european politician thought he could get brownie points where he would look cool by saying he was in

a meeting when president putin was actually boasting about wanting to invade half of europe i mean it's quite extraordinary and it shows us where we're at on russia phobia and of course this man has been found out but there's lots of others lots of the leading politicians have been making other claims they were actually saying that they were in the room with putin but they've been making similar claims about russia about russian aggression and in fact it's all been fake news isn't it it's a conspiracy i suppose it's the elites are actually peddling themselves what all could meeting that would have been the us do here in moscow to meet his russian counterpart wednesday i suppose that's what brought all this to a head. yeah absolutely i mean you know the the the idea that this man would actually come out and say that he was at this meeting with putin when in fact he wasn't actually in russia at all i mean what does it tell us it tells us that really we're in this climate at the moment of russia phobia where we're hearing from british government ministers to a lot of outlandish things about how russia is playing to invade russia is a major threat to us the u.s.

this is going on as well and so i think it's all in this sort of climate it's sad really sad that these leading politicians in western countries feel obliged to have to come out with this claptrap we could easily disprovable and of course it's fake news basically this is the as i said we talk about conspiracy theories but these conspiracy theories about russia about russia having plans to invade the rest of europe or half of europe or whatever these are the acceptable conspiracy theories that are actually being peddled by establishment politicians by establishment journalists and media figures. times your listeners klug pre-shared it. is france sort of almost two thousand citizens who travel to join islamic state intelligence sources the sixty seven came from one particular paris suburb where shall the dubin secure boards. a short train ride from paris is trapped on the surface there's nothing much to set it aside from the thousands of other

towns in the country but you don't have to scratch very deep to see that trap is very different where you would see any. butcher shops there were i think at the moment over fifteen hundred prayer rooms and five mosques if you look at people on the street you won't see couples holding hands you'll see the women are dressed in strict islamic dress. there's a lot of home schooling so you couldn't really consider trap. typical french town anymore it's a little bit like a state within the state for decades it's been considered a magnet for muslim fundamentalists hardline salafism and one hobby is a widely practiced and trap has become synonymous with joe hardison. dozens of people. islamic state i was have carried out attacks on french soil have been linked. in two thousand and fifteen while with her right

appears to. think that. there is some plain white pride remaining bad. it's only a matter of time before we have another attack the basic problem is that the ideology that's driving this and this goes much deeper than terrorist cells planning and executing attacks that ideology is so ingrained that last year a poll of french high school students revealed thirty two percent of muslim students believed islamic doctrine was superior to scientific fact another in two thousand and sixteen showed that sixty eight percent believed islamic law was superior to french law there's also concern that in an area like this that was once . good. by the authorities but syria is becoming the lands.

the full veil covering has been banned for a ts yet the police are often reluctant to intervene off the riots in two thousand and thirteen when officers try to i.d. a woman who is fully covered with a very very fragile situation which the government doesn't want to provoke urban riots which would quickly spread like wildfire all over france. president mccord says he wants to reorganize islam in a bid to fight fundamentalism but some experts say that's a pipe dream radicalization in places like this they say it's already far too deep rooted to take out charlotte ski r.t. trap folks in the u.k. now and its planned exit ongoing from the european union's forces it is the latest as the british foreign secretary boris johnson has been giving an update on the divorce negotiations with the e.u. which many of criticize not making progress or smith across this in london. this is

the first in a series of six speeches to be made by cabinet members in the next three weeks boris johnson has opened this series of speeches in titled road to bret's it and it was an address aimed at persuading people who don't think that leaving the e.u. is a very good idea that it's actually all about hope and opportunity but in the same breath saying that reversing that decision would be a very bad idea here here is a fear that some people are becoming ever more determined to stop brics it to reverse the referendum vote of june twenty third twenty sixteen and to frustrate the will of the people i believe that would be a disastrous mistake that would be to permanent and in the radical feelings of betrayal he's identified three main fears that people who don't want to leave the e.u. have they talk about security the fear that it would cost the u.k. address to fend for itself they talk about it being a pulling up of the drawbridge that breaks it is synonymous with xenophobia and

also of course economic worries that britain would be worse off outside the single market and the customs union so johnson this morning tried to address those fears in turn the consensus is a speech that as i say was long on a waffle and slightly off color jokes but very short on detail which is arguably what might make some remain as change their minds about bret's it on twitter of course opposition m.p.'s were very quick to point this out yvette cooper said that with fifty thirteen months to go what we need is this is a not bluster and david lammy made a similar point we've heard it all before a few bad jokes and a few long words even boris himself was sounding a little bit desperate by the end he hears under a hail of questions from journalists enough of your sweet nothings with the clarity do you think that you are the right person to be reaching out to to those remaining do you worry that this uncertain approach of breaks it with reading this country is because we have a pm who weren't so sure vote for it today some of the. a few remaining says come

from your own government except this morning i'm not going to. persuade everybody but i've got to i've got to try and i've got to make the effort that is in the end these are people's feelings and people's feelings matter two questions remain that well also today's media conference and that is whether boris is the man to deliver this message and of course whether it's actually too little too late. unexpected severe weather conditions prone to the evacuation of the olympic park in south korea wednesday really windy this week take his rose to go indoors for a while a number of events were postponed those strong winds forced authorities to even dismantle information tents caught up in the i would all a correspondent in the other storm in a patrol. some very serious wind issues in this part of south korea we saw earlier on wednesday for the first few days of the olympics people were complaining about

the cold and then when it finally got warmer some unbearable wind gusts here just a few hours ago i was working outside the coastal olympic park in need and we have to stop filming every other minute because it was almost impossible to work but the volunteers have to stay outside and i even saw one of them being carried away and then taken away by an ambulance so there have definitely already been endure ease because of the high winds i saw the temporary tents with the merchandise being blown away fences falling things falling off the roofs and the trees so that is the reason obviously why the fans were being told to stay indoors but again the volunteers they just have to continue doing their job so it remains incredibly dangerous for them obviously this kind of weather is a headache for the athletes and the organizers and a number of sporting events have already been postponing clue. looting alpine

skiing and biathlon any more asian weather surprises here in korea will see. yeah washington's edgy is how most of talk of a threat of returning i still fight has its lonely want to but there's more and more come back to europe but what to do with these people will discuss that issue with our guests right after the break. when else should seem wrong. why don't we just don't call. me. yet to shape out just to come after. and in detroit because betrayal. when something find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

when lawmakers manufacture consent to public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. in the final. the one percent. we can all middle of the room say. the u.s. is on high alert over a growing number of foreign i saw fighters captured in syria as part of a major combat action which is of course now out of washington urged his allies piggly britain to pay more attention to citizens who fled europe to join the

terrorist organization so if the u.k. defense secretary said they should not be allowed to return. i don't think they should ever set food in this country again they turned their back on britain our values and averaging we stand for they're the worst of the worst we're working with the coalition on foreign fighter detainees and generally expect these detainees to return to their country of origin for disposition. another british official suggested ironically that extreme measures should be taken several months ago this warnings began for a long time the minister for international development said the only way to deal with the returning fighters was you may recall to kill them he said for now i still fighters of u.k. origin to return home facing prison sentences france initiated a program for its part to try to deal radicalized you had this it's not been that successful seems to have failed paris is now also turned to sentencing militants as well meantime in germany education and the radicalization programs is still in

operation but those coming back are also facing trial and jail time it's a big problem what do russia to sort of face this in russia the most dangerous former jihadists are imprisoned though in the past number did join d. radicalization programs they have no clothes so it seems time and time again country to country that kind of thing just doesn't work on controversial cases come to light in russia one former eisel fighter says that he escaped the terror group and turned him self into the russian security services he then face trial in russia but was later released now the court explained that he was never involved in combat and also cooperated with the investigation after admitting his guilt there says been given some leniency we managed to speak with him about his time in syria. villains for the implement i got interested and started reading forums and watching video online i was given a phone number of a person who could help me get to syria here's sure me that those who came could

leave it any time and no one would be kept there but they immediately took away our documents and telephones it was a shock for me i felt helpless everything was different from what they told me. ok whether on the if you like false pretenses do you believe him do you not let us go to this issue no mo answers with this political and social commentator and also stephen morrison the english democrats party hi guys thanks for your time this is a controversial subject this warning that these guys are going to come back at some point highly trained some as well as been in the offing for years now isn't it mo to you first would you see what do you do with these people when they come back. to you try and deal radicalize them missing time and time again that doesn't seem to work or just throw in joe for the rest of their lives. it's it is a tough question it is a controversial question there are always going to be those that say these people have shunned western democratic values the rules of law in this country when those

people have gone out there they commit heinous acts of terror at the same time we know that is a more granular picture because some of the people who went out to syria to iraq to fight went out there a on humanitarian grounds or got sucked into the conflicts some when our spouses some children have been born out there and change sides and ended up trapped out there so the difficulty we have is and that's what a lot of the western countries i mean including countries like indonesia and others there are hundreds of foreign fighters who have been captured by the syrian democratic forces out there that are being held at the minute. initially britain said we're going to make them stateless remove their passports not going to allow them reentry other countries then said let's take a more light approach some of the nordic nations said let's try to repatriate them have radicalization programs which in part have actually been quite successful in some areas at the same time then the u.s. has now taken the lead and the u.s. defense said foreign countries need to repatriate their own citizens here and deal

with them using the rule of law like message sent away to another british player if you take these guys passports away of the british citizens where they're supposed to go or you know on our doorstep. yeah i mean it's the ultimate form of nimbyism which is the idea that we have foreign fighters some of them that there are some quite dark stories about interests in the west and in syria that help these fires get out there like the bethnal green school girls that. brides who only sixteen we couldn't figure out how they go out there. you know there are lots of different stories about what happens to these people if we make them stateless stand simply they will stay out there they will keep breeding extremism terrorism and radicalization and they'll keep killing and they'll keep a. so we have it's a problem have to deal with you can't hide from it but i fear there's not much sympathy for them from stephen morris stephen no what would you like to see to let's talk about the british british passport holders first of all that have gone out there most saying some of the went out there with their family some of the went

out there maybe they were brainwashed but i mean i suppose the argument is allowed you know you were going to go out there and fight of the day if you going to join isis what do you think should be done here practically. well the shouldn't be allowed back here if they've committed crimes abroad then they should be dealt with abroad if they committed crimes in syria they should be dealt with by the syrian authorities. he's now in control of so you probably should not come back here should not come back here it's as simple as that because they've committed the crimes abroad so why should the taxpayers foot the bill for all this we believe and all the shore and then probably the doing jail for quite a while that cost more money when these crimes are being committed abroad let the authorities deal with them on the rule of law and then there is because they've got a british passport i spose they're coming back home know that the fact is just does that mean that i have to my laws apply to every country i go to you know if

you go to another country you will be their laws you break their laws you have to abide by their system and whatever punishment comes down you cannot fall back on this british passport say oh i committed atrocities abroad but all for me british passport into the mix so i get sent back oh no i want to live situation or whatever brawled what if the the jurisdiction the situation or the legal system of these countries are so shot up they're not able to be dealt with take syria take iraq where there is a sin the syrian government there is assuming that the issue been there is that the syrian government is not the knowledge where all of our western. yeah the west is supporting. the opposition now towards each whichever side gets them there want to deal with them did not i would issue they've gone there to fight they've gone there to me i'm not part of an armed force i'm not part of the peacekeeping force they've

gone there are civilians to cause to cause havoc to kill people they get caught they dealt with over there do not come back to galveston can i interject with just what matters if they are so. absolutely if i can just interject with the first issue of this firstly to say that the west has been supporting the opposition isn't strictly true because the british parliament took the vote not too long ago to support president assad with the airstrikes in syria to bomb isis an opposition fighters so to say that we have a clear policy of supporting the opposition isn't right the family have been allies to the west. we have married you know you. met with i'm just saying in terms of national policy foreign policy came here met with blair met with the queen they have him and his father were both pro west pro democracy secularist interests in that country and the second point of order is this which is

how do we know people have committed crimes will out in the evidence in front of them and putting them on trial just to assume people went out there so well i don't want to go out of here i'm in london regularly on trial i don't go i mean i don't regularly caught the first the first brit to lose his life in syria was a young lad from portsmouth who was a street preacher he saw committing heinous acts of genocide and war crimes and just brutalizing people or murdering citizens and civilians had murdered i think twenty or thirty thousand people by the time. trying. to show you a different direction to the knowledge years. first of all this guy went out there as a chef and he ended up getting broiled in the conflict are you going to. do with are you going to go out there. let me let me go to your original point ok some of the north and north african states were actually more pro-west and then there were a little war the little girl that will let you go in and overthrew him and the

actual people had to go and got off the people that the west put in place now a sad issue with the south was it's like the phrase your enemy is my enemy we'll just leave it there to say we. were there to go against it or. are going to punish us what we're trying to work a allow back here are simple do you have another option other steven that other than these guys should not come back in is there any other practical way with a practical hat on you could see well ok if they do have to come back in here which that is the way it's going to happen at the moment. they have to be dealt with can you see any other way other than saying no you're barred. well that there is a way but obviously the the u.n. is so weak it's laughable the e.u. again is so weak just nonexistent the should have. we should have at the u.n. peacekeeping forces making safe and so we could properly categorize these people

rather than so ok these people going to fight for whichever side these people fight . against but now because the fighting for the kurds to be in class is tell us here it becomes a ridiculous situation the united nations peacekeeping force should have been in there earlier so the e.u. should have been in there. more he says. we should have had a peace and buffer zone there where the nations people who were british passports could go to a safe haven. now the people have been for these people have been caught fire right stephen we've got to leave it there my friend with the we've got well over time we're about to fall off the air and so political and social commentator stephen morrison english democrats party northwest chairman thank you for your time do appreciate we could do hours on the. but thanks your time today appreciate it most motives are. right briefly before we go to the break a quick update on what was happening in the u.s. earlier on the u.s. instant. shooting this morning near the national security agency h.q.

for me just but two hours ago now authorities surrounded him handcuffed a man there after a black s.u.v. ran into a barrier authorities confirmed by phone that one person was injured in the shooting outside the base and was taken to hospital believed to be a security guard present trump's been briefed by the instant and the f.b.i. is sending teams to the scene there this is a similar incident back in twenty fifteen someone was killed then a twenty seven year old and a passenger wounded when police opened fire after the pair tried to gain unauthorized entry there and they say gate we don't know of civilization and we don't know with the same motives at all with any motives for this we've got no more information but we will bring it to you we'll update you as well on line r.t. dot com we are at international global broadcaster from moscow for now thanks for watching.

altie we have a great team we need to strengthen before the freefall world cold and you're back to been a legend to keep it so it's at the back. in one thousand nine hundred two that must qualify for the european championships at the very last moment no one believed in us but we won and i'm hoping to bring some of that waving spirit to the r.c.t. . recently i've had a lot of practice so i can guarantee you that peter schmeichel will be on the best form since my last will come from the last throws or three. thousand zero zero zero zero zero rush hour. drive. none of those left left left more or less ok stop that's really good.
