thing on that and if i don't leave we have to find a solution and i hope that we've. a common solution for europe which in greece is secure to a full blood supply for everybody and went up like the five european companies germany and france united kingdom austria invested ten billion euros in a project should in brussels protect their interest as well we we have a market already. approach in europe we want to have a single european and achieve market and we want to mobilize as much private money as possible for increasing and building the infrastructure. so that's the one side and we have to balance it on the other side of course. the european commission is concerned as some of the states we were talking about that dependency on russia or to other partners will increase and therefore we have to. balance

this but basically i think it's good that we have a lot of european companies cooperating and westing in this project with private money. mr safir we're going to take a short break right now and when we're back we'll continue talking to him five for speaker of the christian democratic union party and chairman mr to talk more about the nordstrom to atlanta project and the opposition to trade from overseas.

global warming off selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings pennies to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that still. produce offspring to tell you that will be gossip and tabloid biased files of the most important news today. off the bad guys and tell me you are not cool enough and let's fight product . all the hawks that we along the border will watch. no not one tough. enough loser not done one by its nature the definition. i'm back in the. news. and.

take him. to the. sun. and then you're going to bring the hell is that time. he went. to the well the beach. just dealing with one mean a leftist that you know better than him he's just one tokyo fund he's. going. to love. his work was because did it because he didn't seem quite a cultural critic for the grammys.

were bad for the energy speaker of a christian democratic union party and a german bundestag discussing gear ups and or just security and controversy around the nordstrom to pipeline project mr driver us secretary of state rex tillerson sees north stream to us that's what two european energy security of the pipeline will be able to provide a quarter of europe's annual gasoline bores and will reduce the price of russian gas by almost a half the us have a proper understanding of the european energy market. for mr trichet power. and a few i understand that they are fierce also in us today say ok if europe gets more dependent to or russia that brings a strategic threat maybe if we think of the discussions we

had last year just maybe if you look to a grand way are russia while a to the national law occupying the grave that isn't acceptable and we have to talk about this and we will not accept it but the talks must go on and i think we have to talk more to each other and to find also a solution for a lot of political economic technical cultural. issues and initiatives and so i think it is also good to. have more diversification on the energy sector and us for example is now number one gas producer and supplier in the world and if they transport the island she also to europe we have a not

a possibility and so this brings competition and it breaks also security of supplies so i don't see that we are. increasing the security or decreasing the security of supply is the other way round and therefore i think we need to and should take all pipeline pro checked all at you bro checked all the storage boats it's we can get i agree with you and then there is joe mccarrick from the u.s. state department's bureau for energy resources and he dismissed the very idea of north can we bail out i mean i just wonder how can washington assess whether this kind of confidence what can or can't be built in europe. yeah. daf tel wouldn't interest fall to their strategic interests and they are also of us heavenly in westing and she infrastructure and so it's natural they also want to have a share off the cake and russia wants to have

a share of the cake and maybe even future times. iran and other states from the far middle east will have some shows indicate. that that's the way the market and so i think that's that's ok but we should leave it to the market to market signals what is good for security of supply what is good for competition for the prizes and what kind of productive we will we will have and we should not decide it. in a political bad so for me it's also not accepted will. russia nor then us deciding maybe on what chairman companies or european companies are investing in or which infrastructure we are building interim money we're in in europe i think that's a tremendous it's

a european decision here ride the united states has its own interests and is openly calling openly calling for european states reject norseman to about what kind of leverage candidate search over here can states who can washington sway. they talking to international governments stay out talking to my most of parliament i also had some exchange with. american representatives and to members of the state department and exchange if you will said. i think i at least try to explain why i see that more pipelines and more infrastructure brings more to do with supply. and what the reason for all of this is none so at least we were more or less ninety percent we had to save it at the end off to its cost miss a meeting but there is still a. gap and we have to talk and dispell but finally

we decide what infrastructure we build and what we cannot build so the americans are importing imposing sanctions against russia kompany is involved in nordstrom too from the german side how is burley planning to work around those there is not only not she is tendency to protect. and it is that bothers me and i think open markets free trade is key for growth and create a key for increasing. the welfare of the participating nations and so i personally zero posed any part protectionism they did not she said to us by the us in other sectors and so we have to. keep on working hard that we keep the markets open. first think

a multilateral approach is the w t o is the right approach if this is not for a team because we saw the last years that it's very slowly and we may be. quicker and faster with bilateral approaches than we should but open markets. are key for prosperous development so north stream two promises tens of billions and potential welfare increase for all the twenty eight states which means also those who are arguing against it are these potential profits big enough to silence naysayers. no but. you know it's about bill finally be the prophet but if we have a shot or. a shoulder rule would not stoop to. potentially cheaper to bring the gas to central europe and then everybody can

benefit. and so. we will that we will see what happened. so nordstrom one remember matt similar strong opposition and it's time the same concerns were raised and about the political influence gas dependence on the pipeline is working fine and europe is still independent last time i checked so why are the same arguments raise against or seem to i mean is there any think drastically different about this project. geo political. situation is different it was not street. took place before we had. the developments and so on and that's. because. a lot of people in europe especially in eastern europe and baltic states as well as and poland and ukraine and romania and so on. they all fear

a new cold war and war on. and so maybe that is all these concerns. are also fed by the russian behavior in the last year but the if you. think. i'll turn it that is my hope i mean that i snored streams don't vote for both but right but that's my whole point the first pipeline first north stream didn't cause the cold war did it why would the second one but it's all about money it's all about. the profit now and always i didn't say that north stream through its is causing it to say but the russian behavior against craven. things changed in the last years there are also hostile activities on the baltic sea and in the air

which we fought both that we have not anymore and they were you remember i was my crew up at the. called war and so i know what happened instead and i think. russia should change its behavior in this. sector i mean i feel like there are double standards here because of course i understand europe or germany are worried about the whole political situation but you're still buying the gas. is a. two way dependency russia wants to sell the gas and if there is a pipeline it only can sell the guess why the pipeline and europe and germany need needs to guest so it's a win win situation for both. and they are our bilateral or they are problems political problems we have to talk about and therefore we also implement that sanctions on the various sectors

and so on hopefully figure that i'm not going to say and i'm to go to the table of talks and i think what the there are the russians didn't behave the right way in the last in the last years and so that that's now also with the day a reflection in the public and on the political arena but all i'm saying is that europe or us i'm saying that would both agree that we're sort of interdependent when it comes to gas so why generate extra trouble white it doesn't really make any sense when political thing is a political thing but this is all about gas and money and we both need each other here yeah that's that's true but we also not naive of course and she's also a always a political issue but didn't she just said there wasn't a political issue there is a market issue i mean in

a chief. it's course that. it's both the pipeline project is. private. and privately financed by the energy discussion where for example the fulfillment of the european single market. is of course a political issue a political issue and dependency and fears of security of supply also a political issue is they not she issue is a political is a political issue because without it she. called him he's not able to if you remember what happened at the beginning of the seventy's it affected a whole lot of countries and the whole their old economy had brought it. in a crisis and so it would be naive to say it's not a political issue. i am a survivor i really hope all sides can work out their differences on this and the

pipeline actually. will start to function thanks a lot for this interview for talking to five for energy speaker off the christian democratic union party in the german been discussing the north seem to pipeline project and what it means for the european energy market that's it for this edition of seven. well we'll go twenty eight team coverage we've signed one of the greatest goalkeepers available to us but there was one more question and by the way who's going to be our coach. guys i know you are nervous he's

a huge star and a huge amount of pressure you have to be the center of the beach. and do all the great the great the good you are the rock at the back nobody gets past you we need you to get let's go. alone. and i'm really happy to join us for the two thousand and ten world cup in russia meet the special one. needs to just take the radio beyond the team's latest edition to make up a bigger. look at. the local wal-mart selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings peace to the chicken hawks forcing you to fight the battles that don't. produce offspring to tell you that what we gossip and tabloid lifestyles of the most important news today. off the bad guys and tell me you are not cool enough and let's invite.

all the hawks that we along with our audience will watch. i max keiser one for my guide to financial survival this is a hedge fund a device used by professional scallywags to earn money. that's right these hedge funds are simply not accountable and we're just getting more and more into that. totally destabilize the global economy you need to protect yourself and get informed watch keyser. is a. church secret indeed catholic priests accused of sexually abusing children can get away with it quite literally i like to call this the do a graphic solution so what the bishop needs to do then he finds out that the priest

is is a perpetrator is simply moves him to a different spot where the previous standard is not the highest ranks of the catholic church conceal the accused priests from the police and justice system to that of themselves as the i intend to. use these yet in. this. case felt. that at that the law. that was. not. me. i.

became. as national security council used to discuss russia amid allegations in the media and from some politicians that moscow poisoned the former russian spy on british soil also to come terrorists and rebels occupying the syrian enclave of eastern ghouta have reportedly started fighting each other after moderates ruge to separate themselves from extremists in exchange for safe passage follows a deal with a rebel group that the allowed fifty two civilians to safely leave the area and a five year deadline to prosecute former u.s. intelligence chief james clapper for allegedly lying to congress under oath expire is without charges being pressed.

can you watching our international this monday afternoon it's just turned two o'clock here in moscow. the british prime minister to resign may is facing pressure from some in her cabinet over the poisoning of a former russian spy on u.k. soil they want her to adopt a tougher stance on the case investigators think that's a good script and his daughter were deliberately targeted with a nerve agent traces of the substance of being detected at the restaurant where the to wait before they were found unconscious on a nearby park bench or so the case got a pal is a former russian intelligence agent and he was stripped of his rank over spying for the u.k. and then jailed for thirteen years for espionage though he was released early in a high profile spy swap between the u.s. and russia but we can get more details now on what's happening with and see through our correspondent in the k. good afternoon to just bring us up to date then what's the latest in this case well

andrew the spy scandal bonanza continues in full swing here in the u.k. with finger pointing and accusations flying around the world. out proof so far because an investigation is clearly still ongoing now the media coverage of this story has really been something else we've seen throughout the last week accusations allegations speculation there's been so much enthusiasm even that we saw the times probably accidentally post a headline where they had proclaimed this man already dead leader to be corrected and the general narrative has been of course this big evil russia attacking in what looked like state sponsored events this man who was leading a quiet life in the u.k. who had a perfect family and so basically it's been presented here is a done deal already now this is ongoing why the british but while the british prime minister teresa mayes facing huge pressure from all around here in westminster to

take a really tough stance in the situation against russia and she will be and she is meeting today with the national security council way where they are expected to discuss the latest intelligence that they have so maybe we will hear more about what the british officials know we do know that theresa may might make some kind of announcement throughout the day later today and some of the possibilities that have been thrown around here in london would be some kind of sanctions there's been talk of potentially expose the expulsion of diplomats and spies some kind of possible financial curbs to anybody connected to the kremlin as well as talk of not having on any of the british officials travel to russia for the world cup as well as other suggestions and we do know that despite there having been no official announcements of what exactly happened to sergei script all we do know that there's been lots of impatience about pointing fingers at russia here let's take

a look. while it would be wrong to prejudge the investigation i can reassure the house that should evidence emerge that implies state responsibility then her majesty's government will respond appropriately robustly we look objective lee at the evidence we don't get ahead of ourselves and if there is evidence of a foreign state involvement we will need to respond russia's being more aggressive and we have to change the way that we deal with it because we can't be in a situation in these areas of conflict where we're being pushed around by another nation well oh certainly a lot so messages there but what is so ca should we have discovered also our team being dragged into this whole story let's take a listen to that. was it that appropriate for you to appear on russia russia today this week given the fact that as we've. said there are a handful of state actors that could be responsible for this one very clear thing

that you could do is stop appearing on russia today which is we describe one of your road ministers as a kremlin propaganda vehicle well along those people was the right hand man of labor party leader jeremy corbyn who of course suggested boycotting r.t. in light of the channel's coverage of this latest story however jeremy corbyn himself did not support his stance he didn't support a boycott and he said that the party's approach to the situation would be quote under review and while so this story has been unraveling so quickly with so many making assumptions as if this whole incident has been a done deal we do know that russia on the other hand has been saying why don't we canvass down a little bit calm down the hype and look at the facts once they're actually on the table well that is yet to happen with an investigation ongoing and obviously just clarity is only beginning to trickle in in this whole story ok thanks nasty that was and see it your kind of for us there in the u.k. . now another news terrorists and rebels occupying the enclave of eastern ghouta

side the capital damascus have reportedly started fighting each other that's according to the russian reconciliation center for syria it says the infighting began after one of the rebel groups was urged to separate from terrorists in exchange for negotiations on conditions for their safe passage out of the war ravaged area earlier the reconciliation center struck a deal with rebels with some rebels which allowed fifty two civilians half of them children to safely leave the enclave through a humanitarian corridor or is the first time civilians have been able to use the corridor there as intended previously they were either fire that by militants or resorted to using a using a pass. aid convoy as cover. and this is what the situation there looks like now the syrian government has regained a large portion of eastern ghouta you can see essentially isolating the militants

into three separate pockets and civilians who lived in these territories under militant rule and now sharing their stories to r.t.g. goes you've done office more now on the deal that allowed dozens of civilians to leave the fighting. militants in control of the area have let them out almost two weeks after russia and syria open the humanitarian corridor was not an act of good world on behalf of the rebel factions but part of a deal russia and syria led some anti government fighters safely flee with their families and in exchange fighters in ghouta would allow fifty civilians to leave the war zone as world even better we've been suffering horribly for seven years we all stayed neutral in misrata that we couldn't mean can do anything they didn't lattice a little controlled pressure on us to leave some mystery natural seed we haven't seen any of the elites sent to us we haven't seen any money nothing they took

everything from us. militants treated civilians anees good as a bargaining chip making sure that if anyone flees they do it on the fighters terms the gloves were off from the start the russian defense ministry has reported that the paths to safety were shelled almost religiously precisely to prevent anyone from fleeing to damascus trying to scape the hell fire between the government forces and militant groups whose fighters far too often side with terrorists. who have all sorts of needs inside although today the priority remains medical help that we need to. reach with the people inside all that food aid as well.

gov the other building block by block by the. general that started the year. then over security you couldn't have a. good look at the most obvious and let me. see if that machine sums are seen as a good look at the. political analyst tony but him says the infighting between militants in east and go to is caused by the lack of choice they have the materials anti terror operation there i think because of the pressure of the military pressure of the syrian army which could size of our sixty percent of the total area it was up to the directors of

that. i think that to brush up busts of those militants torch to look for other choices one of these choices is the go out of the of the good that do it live or some of that want to surrender because there was and nested it could be reduced by present the support of those militants who want to stop fighting that state so this kind of disagreement and because of that not all round of choices for those militants at this point of the fighting began to. take. place between those militants. now a five year deadline to you charge former u.s. intelligence chief james clapper expires on monday despite calls from both parties to prosecute him he lied to congress under oath about mass domestic surveillance. does the n.s.a. collect any type of data on.
