1:02 pm
hearing from francis interior minister. this is what he had to say. this morning here taxi driver of a car he gravely wounded another was also wounded he then left came across police officers who he also wounded that arrived in the supermarket who shot and killed two people this point the police intervened and were able to help some hostages leave a left colonel who was with his officers offered to take the place of a hostage so he stayed with him terrorist fired shots has intervened and killed the terrorists some confirmation now about who the attacker was the interior minister saying it's a twenty six year old they do one luck to him who is a french. national who is known for petty theft and some small drug crimes that he was under police surveillance we understand however there
1:03 pm
was no suggestion the interior minister said that he had been radicalized and in fact it's been claimed that the action that happened on friday in france was completely unexpected and what's also been emerging is more detail about what happened inside that hostage situation inside the supermarket in that small town of twerp we understand that when gunfire was first heard some of the supermarket employees tried to get some of the customers out of the shop there were apparently around fifty there when not going to fire was first heard some were able to make it to safety others then of course became the hostages hundreds of police descended on the town to try and remedy this situation police first of all try to negotiate with the twenty six year old hostage taker apparently he had said that this was vengeance for what has happened in syria and he'd also made demands such as the release of why. the man accused of carrying out the paris attack in two thousand
1:04 pm
and fifteen well one hundred and thirty people were killed now we also have been hearing about some of the her oh isn't that took place today was one of the offering to swap himself for one of the hostages when he did so he took a mobile phone with him and we understand he kept that line open and when the police officers heard more gunfire from inside the shop they then stormed it and at that point killed the hostage taker we also know the president might call he's been attending a meeting in the e.u. in brussels is due to return back to france where he will cool ordinator a series of response. we spoke to former british intelligence officer ali marshawn who told us the fact that the gunman was under police surveillance exposes a failure in law enforcement is part of the passing that we're seeing emerging across europe over the last few years of people who are carrying out these low tech
1:05 pm
type of attacks with high. rates who are of course on the radar of at least the police if not indeed of the intelligence agencies but for some reason they're not being watched carefully enough they're not being monitored carefully enough they're being followed around. and they're allowed to get more radicalized and carry out these are appalling deeds it's hard to see what more fronts can do i mean they had a state of emergency declared after the massacre and attacks all the powers are still there in france they just change the name they change the terminology and yet all those powers are still preventing the security agencies and police from protecting their french citizens so i fail to see how much more they can do. this is the first act of terrorism in france since president micron lifted the country's almost two year state of emergency last november it was put in place by its predecessor after a string of terror attacks the deadliest was in november twenty fifth in which i still inspired terrorists killed a hundred thirty people in paris. her
1:06 pm
own. correct. cure her. isis magazine direction the walls to rent a truck and drive into a crowd oh and. to you. thank.
1:07 pm
you thank you. were all it's. ok to outgrow a. frank got a bigger story tonight donald trump has appointed his third national security adviser it's the washington veteran and former u.s. ambassador to the u.n. john bolton who is known for his hawkish done so in both north korea and iran.
1:08 pm
secretariat building in new york has thirty eight stories if you lost ten stories today it would make a bit of difference. the russians have walked all over the obama administration for eight years it's really been a pathetic performance if you make them feel pain and others feel pain then the possibility of deterring future conduct like this increases that's what we need to do. the caliphate that isis is now holds king abdullah of jordan who is not simply
1:09 pm
a muslim can have a muslim country. like our president i. am. so he becomes a trumps third national security chief in fourteen months the point was made on twitter and typical style the president also made use of the social media platform to close only this month when he fired his ex secretary state rex tillerson cullum open takes a look at the latest arrival through washington's revolving doors. he is the third
1:10 pm
national security advisor to the donald trump administration in the last fourteen months and john bolton is a long time advocate of the use of force against iran and against north korea now those are two countries that are rather vital for the trumpet ministration in the coming months in may donald trump will have to weigh in on the iran deal whether or not it will continue and furthermore the usa is on the verge of carrying out the historic meeting the first meeting between a head of state of the usa and the leader of the democratic people's republic of korea so at this point a lot of questions remain so the fact that john bolton has been selected is rather interesting i think they want to make peace i think it's time so it could be a long and unproductive meeting or it could be a short non productive meeting we hope that these new measures directed at the arena of dictatorship will compel the government to reevaluate its pursuit of terror at the expense of its people well i think he's on the verge of making
1:11 pm
a mistake i think his advisors are pushing him in the wrong direction you know honestly the certification question is utterly irrelevant john bolton served as the u.s. ambassador to the united nations under the administration of george w. bush and his appointment was quite controversial at that time for statements he had made harshly criticizing the united nations can trail donald trump was quite critical of military intervention isn't by the united states saying that he wanted to stop toppling regimes however john bolton is a long time advocate for military interventions around the world so big developments on the horizon regarding iran and north korea you have this another. too which is to john bolton is not particularly known for his love russia is apparent in the russian gun because he video five years ago already has some american media speculating about possible connections to moscow than. where the russian national government to grant a broader right to bear arms to its people it would be creating
1:12 pm
a partnership with its citizens that would better allow for the protection of mothers children and families without in any way compromising the integrity of the russian state the sewer line is going to think about it legal analyst and media commentator hey there things should job old some point it's not going to well with the media justified oh no this reputation is going up. what is happening did you hear that is now what is he talking about what is going on here this is this is this is the most incredible orthogonal disjointed skit storied. planned it we i mean we can't we cannot figure this out now let me tell you what people are saying. i know a lot of people in the business and they are trump acolytes i mean they're apostles minions they live and breathe trump and this is what they say do you see the genius
1:13 pm
of this man i said no where he says he's these throwing his opponents off he's unpredictable in step three d. chess they keep talking about this that that these these seemingly. grew and this this just john bolton let me just get this straight who basically president trump as first as first he's going to one aisle eight north korea my rockets bigger than your rock and my buttons bigger than your bug. your rocket man ok fine that's step one then he says you know on second thought a little rapprochement detente that might be a good idea well oh to know what is going on let's bring in bolton who what. what what is now if you think you're confused i've read of the world to say what's with this bad think that that's why the only thing that we have in this in the
1:14 pm
mainstream media are his alleged dalliances with models and and the like i mean this is completely disjointed the most ardent trump supporters and said finally somebody who recognizes that we are not in perpetual war that this doesn't do anybody any good now a point as national security advisor a man who basically lives in breeze perpetual war and then you're going to love this one they're saying yeah but they don't necessarily he does have to take advice from him he's called an adviser. months of the adviser i wonder if the last of some color russian connection as well just show the viewers just now we talked about his stance on russia is pretty gantz russia at the same time he was calling it was called for a period in a russian government because he video he's also been on r.t. as well that's next too as to what they're going to stop one another and make him
1:15 pm
some spurious connections i wonder. he is lauding the russian people for arming themselves and i guess i don't i mean that's great i don't understand this you see what we're seeing right now as you see that plus nikki haley who our ambassador at the u.n. who will read anything you give her should read it and a bigger myself oh my god look i understand taking a tough stance against you when in globalist centers i don't necessarily concern the united states but you know there may be this may be utter genius because maybe the idea is to literally scare the that the heck out of the world by by virtue of this these these people or this in congress inconsistent messaging maybe that's the deterrent i'm telling you right now when i heard john paul after
1:16 pm
when he basically preemptive war the prototypical archetype all the textbook definition of the neo con war monger normally we use these terms to be say well you're being a bit. cut off from this problem the law in washington sort of. the gist of what he feels about it legal analysts and media commentator that thanks for joining us still to come please footage is of murder showing the moment officers fatally shot an unarmed black man in california or to mistaking his mobile phone for a gun smuggling stories ahead. it's.
1:17 pm
a lot of countries in europe to understand that russia is and take part of europe endure cannot think about a prosperous europe and developing europe if you don't. see russia being involved in the european proceeds. that russia is royce. has to be taken into account and sourness of course. moscow's expelled twenty three british diplomats as relations between the u.k.
1:18 pm
and russia continue to deteriorate over the poisoning of a former spy and his daughter in southern england the officials left the embassy compound early friday the expulsion mirrors a step taken by the u.k. last week it came as a youth leaders held the second day of this summit which saw the british prime minister pushing for a joint action against russia and he said he's following the talks. during the summit in brussels the topics that were high on the agenda included trade prices and of course the attack insult on march the fourth on the script his daughter now treason may be u.k. prime minister has been pushing for the east asia to express solidarity and take further action against russia here's what she had to say. last night the european union council agreed with the u.k. government's assessment of the attempted murder that took place on the streets of seoul but it's highly likely that russia was responsible for that attempted murder i think it is clear that russia is trying to enjoying the values we share as europeans and it is right that we are standing to go together in defense of those
1:19 pm
values of course other leaders were present to you including chancellor angela merkel and french president micron now they both say france and germany agree that additional measures against russia will be necessary and also speaking at the summits with donald tusk president of the european council sean claudio president of the commission they say the states have different approaches to russia and some want an open channel for discussions with moscow. we have different positions different. interests it's also about different traditions. political landscape in europe duals russia and this is why it's not so easy to keep the. twenty eight. group. together should wait also for some. of the results of the investigation so
1:20 pm
everyone was also indicate you can do reading this. as far as russia is concerned. about the relations so it's kind of terry's amaze expecting movie unifying response from the age of the e.u. say that they're willing for more open dialogue with moscow for now though the e.u. have taken one step and that's the withdrawal of its ambassador from moscow for consultations a better month periods just to remind of better background information about the case and say case for problem his daughter were discovered on a bench in the cathedral city of soulsby almost three weeks ago now on the fourth of march. scruple is a former military officer who was jailed in russia for hunting out secrets to british intelligence but moved to the u.k. in this high school in two thousand and ten british police expect the investigations take months but politicians have been quite quick to try and pinpoint the blame and one thing is clear they from the press conference now
1:21 pm
sweeping getting mixed messages say perhaps more sanctions are on the way or we could see the states having more of an open dialogue with moscow nations reporting that as well as responding to this crippled poisoning there's a lot for your leaders to get through at this summit to political strategies down to the web of believe truism a should be focusing on bricks at these talks. i don't think they're convinced at all but the wider issue is why the trees of mary is wasting this brother bill time with the e.u. on this destruction when she should be given the best deal for britain from the e.u. so there's a great deal of concern about what watered seen as a betrayal of british interests with the brits to go show asians we have to look at it in his interests is it for these accusations to be made against russia if it's would be of no benefit to russia whatsoever to do what they're alleged to
1:22 pm
have done so does it benefit somebody else and this is where we need to put our miss marple hats on and ask a lot of questions and get the answers we need to have the full facts investigated . protos occurring in the u.s. city of sacramento after the release of body cam video showing the moment a police officer fatally shot an unarmed black man in his grandparents' backyard the instant happened last sunday when officers responded to a suspect breaking car windows in the area police say they mistook the man smartphone for a weapon and shot him twenty times. ok show me emergency. my done wonders. of climate change. backyard. for that if. i got a guy at a backyard. where. i
1:23 pm
can get a predicate. thank . you. let's get along with him a couple times is that before we. let you guys boy go hands cover. and. we're going to.
1:24 pm
see more details about the victim tonight is twenty two year old stephan clarke he was a father of two both his children under the age of three his brother described him as an entrepreneur more than eleven hundred people were killed in twenty seventeen by us police it was reported that throughout the whole year only fourteen days went without a fatal incident in response now to this sacramento police of place the officers involved in the fatal shooting on paid administrative leave. pace's outraged locals though who are demanding justice demonstrations took place at city hall out of the sacramento kings basketball arena a major highway was also blocked during russia the plot logs months of movements calling the incident murder and then the money and says he spoke to sanju lewis from the movement. they don't take any value black life because we are collateral damage we've always been when it comes to this kind of grease history at the end of
1:25 pm
the day the motive has always been a lack of value for black life or black bodies and so it's easy to shoot first ask questions later sort things out after the facts come up with nearer to the evidence that don't fit what actually was taking place during the time of the incident so when you come out with the story and say yes he had a good or at the in the next story was he had a tool bar or crow bar then the next story was he had a branch to find out that he was shot with a cell phone in his hand we want to see those officers prosecuted for their decision to shoot their guns twenty shots we could no longer live with and be satisfied with officers being fired or given slaps on the wrist for murdering people in our. b.b.c. is under fire for its alleged bias against opposition leader jeremy kolbe in view is claiming the british pro cost is deliberately trying to portray the labor party had this to russian and this is the report. take a look at this image that the b.b.c.
1:26 pm
used in one of its news programs causing quite a stir in the u.k. and generally spend on jeremy has been on the right side of history for the last thirty five years or for the right side of history and libya on the right side of history on afghanistan the right side of history in relation to iraq so which which side of history is he on the picture depicts the opposition party leader jeremy corbyn on red square wearing something that strongly resembles a russian hat and here is the original image. suffice it to see twitter wasn't happy nice impartial backdrop b.b.c. news night perhaps could be split with a picture of pm clutching fistfuls of roubles and laughing. that backdrop is some absolutely shameful shameful stuff asking for international cooperation and strong evidence before we ramp up war rhetoric is russian collusion now is it shameful columnist for the guardian and corbin supporter or when jones pointed this out to the b.b.c. on air yesterday the background of your program you have jeremy corbyn dressed up
1:27 pm
against the kremlin. is no no no it's got to make it work for you and i'm not dressed up as a soviet state was it was a real picture and only cause if you even photoshop his heart to look over shit this part of the debate was left out of the version posted online something that also didn't go unnoticed the b.b.c. denied photoshopping the image of the labor party leader but then joe mome a top u.k. barrister himself a corbin critic threw his weight behind the claims of b.b.c. bias my conversation which was conducted entirely in writing took place with x x is an individual at the b.b.c. whose seniority and sphere of work is such that it could not sensibly be suggested that x. is not properly qualified to speak on such matters x. stopped explicitly and unambiguous fully and about how criticisms of korban that the b.b.c. could not voice were deliberately coded into imagery or to approach the b.b.c.
1:28 pm
for comment but the broadcaster said it would not release a statement as it hadn't seen the evidence it did say though that the views of its program editors as expressed in their tweets did largely reflect the b.b.c.'s own mom says he can swear on the truth of his tweets adding that lying in his position would be a very big deal the storm of controversy comes after corbin called on the government to take a more measured approach to the school poll poisoning case it could be argued we only take these days to be branded a foreign agent and if that's it you're going to r.t. london. that's news right so far this friday evening live from moscow will for me kevin i would infer the minutes and so many more stories too of course on our.
1:29 pm
