in the past is referred to me and my colleagues as representatives of the russian government and then i made a berridge of questions now or shut down the entire press conference and then rejected a reporter's question which rightfully upset the reporter who then stood up from her chair and followed an hour out of the room we've got to we've got to go first on iraq i will talk to you after the know the iraqi parliament voted wednesday to call for a timetable for the iraq before and she. now it's unclear what exactly agitated now are but it could have been the continuous stream of questions regarding the american reaction to president putin's address but journalists in the room were all defending each other so i wonder if we'll hear any complaints from the other reporters. staying in washington the u.s. state department has approved a possible multi-million dollar sale of javelin anti-tank missiles and launch units to ukraine two hundred missiles and thirty seven launch units are expected to be sent to ukraine in december the deal is worth almost fifty million dollars
7:31 pm
independent political analyst and glazebrook says that this move shows the u.s. interest in escalating the ukrainian conflict. go back to last december and there were signs of the escalation but unfortunately there's there's been a there's been a tendency since right back to the beginning of this conflict that whenever there are signs of the escalation the u.s. and its allies will do a move make a move such as this that will add fuel to the fire of the conflict in order to keep it going that's been the that's been a tendency right since the early days of the conflict when when tanks were first sent into eastern ukraine there were signs of fraternizing amongst the troops the u.s. wants to see this conflict syria wants to destabilize russia's borders it wants to ensure that their hostile relations remain between ukraine and moscow. now back to our top story british courts have found a twenty five year old islamic studies teacher guilty of attempting to create an
7:32 pm
army of his children to attack london landmarks joining me live now to discuss this further is peter curtis a former metropolitan police officer now how could his fellow teachers at the school miss this completely it would appear from the small amount of detailed information that's in the public demand that he was doing this sold within the class behind closed doors and. in after school activities as well and he was quite careful to make sure no one else was around target children not to tell anybody and make sure it was done behind closed doors and it does so by the belief that a properly organized to manage goal is able to allow something like this to go on without noticing it and without knowing what goes on behind closed doors is there really any way to safeguard children from such a thing it's said that in this case they were actually too scared to speak out.
7:33 pm
it's difficult it's like any type of grooming we've obviously known about it in relation to child sexual exploitation for a long time and child abuse for a long time. and anyone managing any sort of setting in which young people vulnerable young people are. in the company of adults. in groups should be very wary of having having those out also working on their own with them or even working are always together so that there's always new out or are you seeing what's going on and so things don't come can't so happen like this. so it's down to the management of scholes really this appears to have been an islamic skoal we have a number of single religion focused schools in this country this would appear to be one that was registered it was expected by off stead which is the government inspection body who apparently rated as outstanding although that was only
7:34 pm
a couple of months after this guy started so it may well have been before his activities took root so you know it was on the radar the management were described as being competent although there were obviously some short falls. apart from that the message has to go to children that if adults are asking you to keep something secret then that's probably not good news and maybe you shouldn't be keep it secret and talking to your parents or some of the trust that i was about and that's a general sort of message really as you mentioned the school was inspected and while he was working there and they had no issues with the fact that there was a teacher there that had no teaching experience why do you think that it. in may well be that they didn't even know that he was actually conducting teaching. post from the details that have been in the public to mind it was very shortly after he started working there it's not even clear that he was actually engaging in these teaching practices at that point. but of course if the school didn't know he was
7:35 pm
doing it if he was meant to be doing something else in those sessions where he was on his own with the children because i think it was a teaching assistant at one point and then of course. it may not have come to light just from the documentation side of things management need to be intrusive in these sort of settings they need to know what their teachers are doing they need to make sure they are inspected from time to time and they need to have mechanisms in place whereby teachers sort of cross check themselves if you see what i mean they speak to the children about what's happening in mr so and so i was cast and you know did you session and this sort of thing so that if the children want to talk there's an opportunity to do so and if the children are hiding something then any competent teacher would have at least an opportunity of support in their conference and are of course we can only hope that this will bring around some change peter kirchen former metropolitan police officer thank you so much for your time thank you. i've
7:36 pm
videos emerged showing the moments leading up to a palestinian man's death during an israeli armed raid in the west bank just a warning you may find some of the following scenes upsetting. you've seen us already can be seen running down an alley wielding an object of some kind he's been shot at by an israeli soldier the soldier and his colleagues proceed to kick him on the ground and then dragged him along an alley he died later from his injuries israeli army has changed its version of events several times firstly the i.d.f. said he'd attack the soldiers with a knife and received first aid at the scene but then it said he attacked them with an iron bar and was taken to the hospital now according to the i.d.f. latest statement us are already died from tear gas inhalation the soldier who opened fire on us or already was interviewed by i.d.f. investigators he claimed he thought his life was in danger we have also gathered some opposing views on the incident from our guests. they're incited to deal with the palestinians as subhumans the whole rhetoric over. to
7:37 pm
dehumanizing palestinian people is something that the israeli army now even schools they can save people's life and they can avoid killing people but hold the dehumanization of the palestinian people that makes them act in such a criminal fashion i don't know whether you've removed the best best. situation that it's very complicated if the army would stick to a law if they would stick the first version both to the army was france and syria. to defend. free the first version and later on on the stand that it was a mistake and change and correct and so developments that took off the words that deserve a really really investigation. it's almost militants are being blamed for an attack on the capital of the west african country of kenya faso the attackers
7:38 pm
targeted the french embassy and the french institute as well as a military headquarters the u.n. and the prime minister also have offices in the same neighborhood authorities called the assault and and the act of terror six militants were killed almost seven soldiers also lost their lives six people were said to have been injured. it's the fourth consecutive day there's been a humanitarian pause and syria's eastern ghouta work orders have been set up to allow civilians to leave the besieged district but so far all efforts to help people trapped there have proven fruitless. the militants aren't allowing civilians to leave eastern gooda opening fire at anyone trying to use the humanitarian routes set up by russia the un security council has also tried to deescalate the situation adopting a resolution to establish a thirty day nationwide cease fire the situation on the ground is of course complex
7:39 pm
as the syrian army is carrying out a military operation against terrorists in control of the area we spoke with people waiting outside gooda to provide the civilians with help. and that's why i'm here with the syrian army and i'm ready to help leaving east. we have ambulances here we have been ready sees the early morning with the words of the list of stay here around the clock to provide first aid to people from the east and. also work twenty four hours i have provided vehicles bequests with all modern facilities medical work is also ready to. read words are good and easy to win but maybe only if you're america that's what donald trump tweeted after he announce huge tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to the us we're going to be instituting tariffs next week will be so i think we're going to have new jobs popping up we're going to have much more vibrant companies and then the rest is going to be up to management
7:40 pm
to make a truly great trumps move threatens to deal a major blow to the world markets some of the largest global steel and aluminum exporters have already suggested they might retaliate the european union has said it will react firmly to defend its interests and file countermeasures germany warned of the same saying washington should be clear about its intentions canada joined that chorus as well and strong words also were heard from china. u.s. has seriously harmed the interests of chinese and many i'm fully exposes china had by expresses its dissatisfaction to counter the run practices of the us china will take necessary measures to defend its legitimate rights and interests. china expert andrew long believes trump's move will not only spark an international trade war but could also backfire on washington itself this electoral measure it is ripping up the rules of international trade and secondly it's not going to do america any
7:41 pm
good because. of the cost the presence or production so the cost so much more to produce the same thing in the united states to other countries so this is the more than economy where everything is connected and by lapping this tariffs on steel it's not going to bring. the american steel industry competitive what is being affected the united states immediately would be customers and a lot of jobs at stake inside america so i think that this is really going against the grain and also other countries are going to give us a lot of. instruments. and then likely it's going to start a trade war which is not good for anyone. fashion can be controversial at the best of times but politics in the mix and someone's definitely going to be upset as happened recently in poland.
7:42 pm
7:43 pm
folks who jews truth mean something that confirms their understanding of what's been official if you're jewish religious the truth means something good wants to secure jews the truth is subjective or will to israel's interests the union of jewish communities in poland wrote a letter to the national broadcasting council demanding that it comment on the priest's words and the anchors response of letting the remarks go unchallenged the union also urged the council to take measures to avoid a repeat in the future writer and political commentator obviated door esque and says anti-semitism is on the rise we see in almost all the posts to war sapan act three is certain very dangerous attempts not just to rewrite their history their special or to glorify the darkest pages of their history on the eve of the holocaust they take this amendment to their law allowing put on trial
7:44 pm
people for action telling truth about the role of polls in the holocaust their humiliating demand moree of victims way must talk of the trolls and unfortunately i don't see european countries and even america talking openly and loudly about glorification often nazi criminals in ukraine and in the baltic states . with russia's presidential election just over two weeks away hopefuls have been sparring in a televised debate while lot of me are put inside out things got pretty heated for those that took part. we. studied an iced up arsonist. announcing they get a little booklet a citizen one that works at the site of a busboy one tree in a pot on one of the lights. go out at six
7:45 pm
it's clear. she would take up about all stores tell you to produce lucian bute theodosia. if the film of the premium for me to them wasn't ready for them would be to start him for it see what i would say we will not hold. in dubai discordant base because it just doesn't this goes with it a point to all of this or that. global call because the only good when you stick to one principle of yes you can do what you know is just. kill design would be to do with the i need to finish the programs most morning if it actually did not get off because that you just wasted with not i not the revolution i do not yet a bit different in that it was subtle but this is a muslim you have never heard we are going to look good to you but i still wish a lot to love to you do you love the music the torah does you love it is look at
7:46 pm
when you push the mother through two of the few bumps you can be up like a day at the speed you put on most but even though we only get back still looting you can i did it but i did that because you don't skewer but especially when bunch . meanwhile another country is also clearing up for a key vote it's just two days before italy holds a general election and polls show that so far there is shifting support for the parties the ruling democratic party had dropped down to second place with the anti-establishment five star movement leading with twenty eight percent of the support as you can see that from this chart forza italia and they go nor are forecast to come in third and fourth both parties are known for their tough stance on immigration is an associate churkin a is in rome with more on the current sentiment ahead of the elections braine sentiment here seems to be one of confusion and chaos because not only is a huge chunk of the population still undecided ahead of sunday's vote but also italy's going to the polls using an untested election system where parties are
7:47 pm
encouraged to form coalitions even before people go to the polls now apart from that there are lots of curiosities about some of the old faces as well as brand new faces that are appearing in this election right now we are at the five star movement final campaign rally this is a movement that was set up back in two thousand and nine by a comedian which a friend essential he started as an online movement which is now a big political force to be reckoned with in italy it is spearheaded by a thirty one year old luigi demaio and their only euro skeptic their anti-establishment the don't fall within the left or right and one of the bigger contenders in this election that are going forward as a single party now fifty years the senior of that leader we have four time italian prime minister silvio berlusconi who is in his eighty's who cannot actually be trying to get a place in power given his former criminal convictions but he's certainly the face of one of the bigger central right movements which is tahlia which is in fact in
7:48 pm
a coalition with leggo which is a right wing group and we also have the former prime minister of italy. renzi who is in charge of the democratic party now this is a man who put his entire career at stake out a referendum where he feels that he had to step down and leave italy with a caretaker government back at the end of twenty sixteen which is it's hard throughout this time so the goal of this election is to put affairs but i can order in italy however with these new rules and all of these different contenders there are lots of questions about whether or not there is going to be any kind of stable government formed here following sunday's election with almost all analysts saying that no one is likely to get forward in terms of being able to form a majority and that vote takes place sunday and of course we'll be here to watch what happens. our geishas have surfaced that someone's been trying to influence the
7:49 pm
upcoming italian election but this time it's not a foreign power trying to meddle but an actress and model she claims she's been blocked from instagram over the potential sway she could have on the upcoming election. i was browsing on my normally away and all of a sudden the screen disappeared i was very surprised i never violated instagram polisi. someone of a society did that i might influence. the public opinion on a distance. oh if only you know has a history of unconventional campaigning on social media she first hit the headlines back in two thousand and sixteen that was during a referendum on constitutional reforms which she launched when she launched a controversial campaign against the move the activists promised free sexual services for those who voted no and she claims she made good on her promise. by campaigning was not strictly political i quitted
7:50 pm
a pompadour as in that stating my opinion about river and him and and bring a lot of attention. to does he is sure basically i was against a constitutional reform they proposed potentially arming seated sense right. i am super proud of my country i love being italian and. i think that is an amazing country. i just want that people to vote with their heart and candidates. whoever and wherever would win them in. can war to create a bad award for all of us for our children and it's just that
7:51 pm
a lot of talented guys as to get out of italy because things are not good here because there is no war i think that we need are we deserve more than we have right now i want people to be social and volcker. about dale pena. that's a wrap up of today's headlines for now but i'll be back at the top hour with more so do stay with us.
7:52 pm
now welcome to. share or not say serbia cherishes its political neutrality and trying to stay away from global confrontations but how will that play out with serbia's aspirations for you membership. in belgrade today to talk about all of this with serbia's foreign minister even said that. serbia was firmly on course to join the european union just two decades after being a pariah state by the west yet the legacy of war during the ninety's is putting a roadblock in belgrade. was old question of kosovo could still its excess want to be a prepared to do to secure the membership what happens if it's forced to choose between old alliances and new ones and at one point during negotiations we'll build great finally draw the line. for i said that it's really great to have you on our
7:53 pm
program one more time it's been a couple of years already lots to talk about so a president who wants to join the european union but he also says that there's no way he will allow serbian russian relations to go sour now you know and russian relations right now are not at its best and we don't know when they will get better so seeing how all the other e.u. members fall in line regarding sanctions against russia why do you think that you will be able to defy brussels when the time comes. at a time. in the world. so when i was in the white house and talk to the national security advisor mcmaster he literally said that the american influence is good in the russian influence as harmful in case of serbia it did not prove to be true in the past seeing how over the past few decades many principles of the international
7:54 pm
law have been violated in the example of serbia first of all the borders of serbia have been changed by recognition of the unilaterally declared independence of kosovo serbia belongs to europe joe graphically politically and historically and it's only logical that our interests in becoming the member of the european union is based on i would say personal experience. i held different positions in government as prime minister and as the minister of foreign affairs and i have never heard anyone from the russian side speaking negatively of our wish to join the european union is the only thing that russia expects it will not result in an anti russian position which serbia is not at all interested in doing. one of the conditions is to harmonize our foreign policy with that of the european union and that is where russia comes in. joining the sanctions against the russian federation you know there are some countries which posed this question at every meeting you
7:55 pm
probably know which countries i'm referring to the always criticize serbia for not joining the sanctions against the russian federation but were surely not going to join the sanctions and in that sense we shall continue to develop good relations with the russian federation. of rove has awarded you with an order of friendship which is very high wart from the russian government in this piece that you cough there are a lot of you have denounced the either with us or against us a pro. foreign policy but the way people see it is that if you're not part of any camp then you're not anyone's friend really. our position that we're not on anyone's side who would like to be members of the european union but on the other hand we have good bilateral relations with the russian federation and we have no intention of those relations just to become
7:56 pm
a european union member on the other hand who love serbia have to take care of our national interests as well pursuing untied russian policies would be to our detriment so we're not sitting on two chairs we have our own share. because that's exactly what a representative of the state department. you can't be sitting on it to charity that it shows do you feel like america could pressure you some point but. he resigned so i don't really have a response to his claims that i'm more into the view that serbia should seek common ground with the western interests in a sense that they should take an impartial stance towards us we have had good relations with the united states and the u.k. we were allies in wars but during the crisis of the one nine hundred ninety s. they practically diverted a lot from us which resulted in their air strikes against us. and then there was
7:57 pm
this operation storm in croatia as well not to mention the unilateral declaration of independence by kosovo. in that sense it is necessary for the western countries to understand that there will be no peace in the region without searching for a common solution without searching for something that is acceptable to all who are speaking about the relations between russia and the united states we hope that there will be some sort of a warm up in these relations i was chairman of the o s c e in two thousand and fifteen it was the fortieth anniversary of the. i read a statement of him written in one nine hundred seventy five by then president of yugoslavia and the statement that was made in helsinki with a little adjustment for the times that's exactly the statement that i could have made today he was calling for detente alleviation of tension between the blocks even henry kissinger recently said that he hoped there would be some warm up in the relations between the united states and the russian federation because the next
7:58 pm
face gone like this would be war and no one should be stupid enough to enter a war that would lead to total destruction on those things before you know the best way to have had to tom right now between america and russia is to find common ground for something and i know that lover of has said that russia and the united states could become part of the cost of the serbian. seeing an attorney could help here. we have never heard from the united states that they would like to take part in those negotiations that's what the albanians from course more see they are actually seeking the involvement of the united states in addition to the european union's involvement on the other hand we have to keep in mind that those proposals are put forward we have to acknowledge them and in that case we would like to invite the russian federation to join as well in the talks that president had with president putin and with foreign minister lavrov and myself russia has expressed
7:59 pm
readiness to join the process but actually we don't feel it is necessary to expand this story right now on. i know the president supports with but. that there's no way to recognize. dependence get something in return what kind of concessions are you looking here for. it's been ten years after the unilateral declaration of independence of course of all and it's still an experiment regardless of the fact that cause of what has been recognized by some states also hasn't completed its independence from britain it has not become un member and member of other organizations there are a lot of countries that do not recognise it like russia china india indonesia iran iraq. argentina mexico ethiopia south africa spain
8:00 pm
five e.u. members haven't recognized possible. over the past few months we've managed to have some of the countries revoked their recognition means that the process is still alive and not over yet no one can have a session without an agreement with the country from which they wish to seem in that sense for dialogue some european countries say that serbia has to say that serbia must recognize kosovo's independence but that's not a compromise serbia will never recognize the unilaterally declared independence of course when the countries which advise us to do so when they do that themselves there are some other standards. because from the telling of present. people gather that maybe there is a chance that there could be a compromise for instance i know that the serbs that have been living in the north . they have enjoyed the fact.
