former general secretary of nato. became frequent guests in kiev initiating negotiations between parties in a faltering we will. be able to come to. the results of the negotiations however were often reached only on paper thus you shango never told the supporters to stop blocking government buildings in central kiev. and therefore these nonviolent and very orange protests lasted for a month during which time the previous election results were no marred by massive corruption and new elections were announced an important nuance just three months before viktor yuschenko became a victim to a mysterious and still unsolved poisoning but it didn't prevent him from winning in the new election. though as we shall soon see there was much more than just the people's will that led to this victory this peaceful revolution and its leader were

a very warm welcome to you from all of us here at aussie international. headlines the u.s. justice department has indicted thirteen russian nationals and three companies over alleged meddling in america's twenty sixteen presidential election when two accuses the defendants of waging information warfare against the united states. indictment charges thirteen russian nationals and three russian companies for committing federal crimes while seeking to interfere in the united states political system including the twenty sixteen presidential election the defendants allegedly conducted what they called information warfare against the united states with the stated goal of spreading distrust towards the candidates and the political system in general i was trying to shed some light on this right now or to jacqueline for
6:22 am
good joining me live in the studio jackie who's been indicted what are they accused of well we have thirteen russian nationals and three russian entities and this is coming down from the office of the u.s. special counsel robert muller and he's of course been investigating the trump russian occlusion for about a year now and one of the main defendants looks to be the st petersburg based internet research agency and it's alleged that their goal was to sow discord in the u.s. political system and cause doubts throughout the country including interfering in of course the two thousand and sixteen presidential election on the list of those indicted there can also be found a catering car company among them there apparently to have at least partially funded the schemes that were concocted by these by the defendants and the idea of course is not left unanswered by russia the spokesperson for the russian foreign ministry said that signalling out these thirteen nationals was absurd let's listen tens out there with thirteen of them according to the u.s.
6:23 am
justice department fifteen people were mentioning in the u.s. election against the billions on the budgets of the intelligence agencies against the intelligence counted teligent against the state of the art technology so upset yes but this is america's modern political reality by the way why thirty apparently that's the only number with bad associations and that's that only hope. the justice department actually. meddled well it starts actually back in two thousand and fourteen and goes up to the run up to the election and is specifically talking about the interference that it was so do have been conducted in reference to the presidential election where it says that they formulated plans to bolster donald trump and disparage hillary clinton and the methods range from organizing political rallies and posing as grassroots groups to posting online but some of the test tactics that are listed in this document are
6:24 am
a bit questionable in one instance russians are said to have paid an unidentified person to build a cage aboard a flat flatbed truck but for what reasons it's not entirely clear in another instance apparently someone was paid to wear a clinton hillary clinton costume in a prison outfit so there would be disparaging to hillary clinton but again maybe not the most effective tactic another situation outlines that the defense purchased advertisements on facebook to promote a support hillary save american muslims rally so there is support for a rally about this proclaimed did a little bit strange again and of course let's not forget all of the efforts that were meant to been taken out on social media and that's where they are alleged to have created fake identities to push certain divisive hashtags in topics on facebook twitter and whatnot and according to the document the fake accounts became the means to reach quote significant numbers of americans but of course in the past
6:25 am
we saw facebook and twitter grilled about what their companies may have played what kind of role their companies may have played in the interference and they've made it seemed the influence was really minimal let's take a listen. we determined that the number of accounts we could link to russia and that were tweeting election related content was comparatively small. aggregate of these ads and posts were a very small fraction of the overall content on facebook but any amount is too much .
6:26 am
these videos mostly had low view counts. so jackie is here as i understand from what we just listened to according to the tech giants there and these are online trolls actually had very little impact on the election exactly and they're not alone in that we've had no numerous investigations already going on for quite a while now and nothing has shown that they were effective any of the russians that are alleged to have been interfering in the election were effective in what they're trying to achieve the u.s. deputy attorney general also yesterday said around the same thing let's take a listen. but there is no occasion in the indictment that the charge conduct alter the outcome of the twenty sixteen election and really this development came out of nowhere and something worth noting is that the indictment is silent when it comes to trump kremlin connection that's what this whole investigation is is about trying
6:27 am
to find a connection between team trump and the government here and russia that they work together in order to get trump elected but that's not contained in this indictment and all of these thirteen individuals and the three companies these are private individuals and companies not connected to the government here in moscow. all right auntie chuckling thank you. we did speak to a legal and media analyst a lionel he says the timing of this indictment is significant we had a shooting where the f.b.i. apparently and other law enforcement agencies were told repeatedly that this young man is exhibiting behavior which most probably is dangerous one can only suspect whether that's it all so the only ends of dollars that have been involved in the russian investigation so one could say in addition to trying to explain why nothing was done to try to stop or at least to do more involving this young man who
6:28 am
was exhibiting all kinds of homicidal behavior and certainly warranted a far closer look than what was presented one could say that maybe in addition to that they're trying to do something because they've only been talking about russians for well before the election and so far nothing has been done. has admitted it knew the florida shooter posed a threat use before wednesday's atrocity it says it had been receiving intelligence on the alleged perpetrator of one of the deadliest school shootings in u.s. history before the attack. we have uncovered at the broward sheriff's office that we've had approximately twenty calls for service over the last two years regarding the killer the f.b.i. has a term and the protocol was not followed. the information was not provided above and
6:29 am
below office. and no further investigation was conducted at that time. the f.b.i. had been given information about nicholas cruz's gun ownership and his social media posts it desire to kill people erratic behavior and potential to conduct a school shooting were also flag in fact one of those who actually warned the security services about cruz has spoken about what led him to raise the alarm september twenty fourth two thousand and seventeen i sent a screenshot of a comment on one of my videos you know this comment said i'm going to be a professional school shooter and i knew that i couldn't just ignore that i hit the report button reported it to youtube of course they removed the comment in then i tried to email it so that. the shooting in florida code on wednesday when a full much student fatally shot seventeen people and injured some dozen more and
6:30 am
nineteen year old suspect was detained by police on the day of the atrocity his case and how the f.b.i. failed to recognize the threat posed by him is now being investigated when u.s. attorney general jeff sessions is now calling for an immediate review of the f.b.i. and the department of justice a florida is not the deadly attack that could potentially have been avoided had more attention being paid caleb maupin reports nicholas cruz isn't the only mass killer to be on the radar screen of the f.b.i. before conducting their crime all marmont teen who shot up the post nightclub killing forty nine people in orlando florida was investigated by the f.b.i. twice before he committed his mass murder turns out they deemed him not to be dangerous now don't forget about dylan roof the self-proclaimed white supremacist who killed nine churchgoers in south carolina well it turns out he was able to purchase his weapons because of errors in the f.b.i.'s background check process and then the.
