being over. in fact it hasn't even begun there not too much on the twelfth of march we sent to the foreign office and note with a request to you to provide us access to the data from the investigation including the samples of the chemical substance that the british investigation reserved for referring to for our experts to examine it in the framework of a joint investigation if you move them with this way we were acting in the framework of article two of paragraph two of article nine of the convention on chemical weapons he goes about according to that convention member states can on the basis of an exchange of information and consultations on a bilateral basis to resolve any issues that could cause any doubts regarding the compliance with this. this is. treated now and based on the provisions of the that article russia is ready to would be ready to respond to it request by great britain within ten days just

a few words instead of all this london so i would put forward a completely absurd twenty four hour ultimatum obviously we rejected it no one in under no circumstances. can talk in this way using this tone with russia in this ultimatum which was transmitted to boris johnson orally to the russian ambassador in london before to me the foreign secretary made clear there are only two possible scenarios eyes of the russian state has attempted murder on the british soil using it to become a weapon or russia lost control would stockpile of nerve agents the foreign secretary of the russian and best of the to explain which of the two possibilities was to them for how these russian produced nerve agent would have been deployed in salzburg. the what could be just twenty four hours we were given a muscle what was that. because of the range of questions that the british side put

to us there were no other questions it says you were. looking to move from a base down today and based on the additional information and statements we've had since then the questions in that ultimatum will seem even more absurd on the fourteenth of march when this is made to send to the director general of the technical secretary that they will be mr drew that proposal to conduct an independent analysis of the results of the british investigation of the so incident in salisbury but have nothing but the same time our british colleagues british again are acting in the frame of the ogre c.w.i. which we believe is the only correct way. they not only have rights is a but they also have certain i believe again. including obligations towards us as fully fledged members of the organization and we have reminded them of that by during this special meeting of the executive council of the a p c w that was going

to get our wish with us and we proposed a draft decision on a joint investigation of like you know it was blocked by the united kingdom and its allies when you made that which they immediately considered as a victory here just will go all of those and a number of those voting for the war and abstained in fact it exceeded the number of those that voted against this is about understanding why does why does the great britain house you need a joint investigation if they've already established who's guilty before even beginning the investigation giving you more reason and this kinds of investigation might destroy their their clear version. for arguments and words highly likely overwhelmingly like well highly plausible but it's almost well there's almost no doubt it's one of them out there are the laws of bullets one nation russia was almost russia was one almost certainly the blair unlike you who are. likelihood of

russian responsibility not like russia is the likely perpetrator. johnson going to news and he can miss every one of the biggest stars supposedly sent russia got a list of questions which it still hasn't received any answers to them about and everything in fact is completely the opposite of cork you know as i said we'll never received any list of questions. and i turned to the british values really if you have such a list of questions please tell us please you would listen to us in washington you might you but with me but please you don't consider accusations in the form of an ultimatum and demand to. acknowledge it and to own up to being gay guilty as a list of questions i want to ask you smart some of things we on the other hand do have a lot of questions both the one hundred to the zero considerably and also to france which all of a sudden for no reason on not based on what provisions of the convention

immediately rushed to assist the british side in confirming the results of the british so-called the express investigation about vietnam as a response to our request the vendor side but we stated that one great britain provided detailed information to france about its investigations if one london refuses to provide its information maybe paris could share that information with us we see wardle's was not needed today we're going to circulated a note that you could you could take a look at the taj it was posted on you nic we also circulate a number of comments of the official representatives of the foreign ministry of russia they contain some very interesting information which i think you will be very interesting for you to use but you want to move get acquainted with it and we will provide this statement with the translation to you as well mr president we're in a fool. and there was no new level of because in. justification of the accusations

put forward against russia is this complete is absurd we can't it's impossible even smile when reading this simple plan with moore's johnson who constantly claims that he's a recent file. say. something absurd in this this this is the nicest word that i can use really i'm honestly absurd and moral you. know what you need to do the premise that the incident was needed that was necessary for moscow to bring people together against before the elections because i want to me was just a moral who is his comparison of the russian. or world cup with a little begins in berlin in one nine hundred thirty six which shone like the soviet union in the senate by the way unlike the soviet union which had a very large delegation from a great britain including with dignitaries present there once and so house boris

johnson referred to the novel of just a yes or stupid crime and punishment where the whole intrigue supposedly is where there is whether the criminal will confess by himself or whether he'll be caught. up with the novel is not really about that it's not a crime novel as the british minister thinks a lot but rather a deep philosophical work of literature. by the way we have already mentioned we've already mentioned the british or the british. the british proverb from the novel about one hundred rabbits they will and that will never become a horse no matter how much you try. that mr johnson perhaps read some other novels by just the obscure list get to know their names and i'm not going to give you a list of those names of those nods in agreement. because i just now has an

argument. evidence of the guilt of russia the british ambassador in moscow demonstrate just colleagues this six page slideshow including the title page these comics. are provided in your evidence and once again they contain nothing but statements like highly likely and it can be granted where you can we can imagine that this that this slam dunk document was provided by mrs may to her european union colleagues many of whom many of whom are unfortunately not all but we did you took this as as. as evidence against a reliable evidence against russia look at this it's a complete. it's it's an absolute travesty my name circulate this is not new here on the part of the polemics about these six pages i mean it's an insult to your

analogy is there if you what what sort of lack of respect do you have for people who who you are trying to convince using this new mind this as evidence and those who and those who you are supposedly trying to convince don't they understand that they're simply the targets of this kind of manipulation and their part in the collective psychos this is the statements by boris johnson about what a dead dead cat on the table that simply and that simply has a way. of distracting from other maneuvers even if you want to you can listen to his interview if you want to know exactly what are you saying these are excellent examples of the perfect ganda war that is being waged without any rules without without respect for rules the kind of propaganda war that is being waged against russia and by the way. since i mentioned dead cats. in the house of a certain group of holland is all very good so. poset lee was well i mean how many

of us were to his words it was nice victoria there were two cats and two guinea pigs where are they now those who were what happened to these animals the one you mention why does why news doesn't anyone mention them i mean their condition is also an important piece of evidence this morning but mr president we live at a time when you have collective loss of in of intellectual clarity. what kind of says i control because substances are used to manipulate the public i don't know except for one substance or means rather and that is the and that is the media. this is the the terrible weapon of our time. using the media it's easy to manipulate the human consciousness we didn't grow up and we're says we're witnessing how when the western media is very successful at doing this as we look at the same time we don't need any kind of very highly until

actually as a. matter of this is not it's enough to regulate to handle and keep repeating this. without any evidence and to do to until people start to believe it. soup on you tube operatives this is what all using the method of dr gaggles lies that are repeated a thousand times become the truth we would have to be a lot so we will demand answers from you to the questions we have put you and if we don't provide your answers in his review if you don't reach answers we will we will then consider this is evidence of slander which you have. not so easily against us and we will seek to. obtain a fully fledged cooperation from you regarding the case against great possibilities . you refuse we will consider this and as an attempt to conceal the truth mr

president everything that is taking place is what i think confirms. that confirms to us that i didn't you know was clear from the very beginning and that is that this is a record needed very well prepared can again in advance prepared in advance it's not by chance or one of the main goal is clear it is to discredit any very good deal legitimize russia i mean you know we used to have to use it in the use of the horrible inhumane. in in concealing the arsenals of the. of being in breach of the convention and chemical weapons on you to put in question its role not only in finding a solution to syria but anywhere else well if you really don't politically the idea is to put in question the political legitimacy of russian principle at the same time to discredit our position on the syrian chemical of those here with you so

basically the idea is to kill two birds with one stone and he realized now since the british are dorothy's. dared to state that behind the nine incident in mass here souls bury russia it's russia's responsibility with a high degree of high degree of probability with dogs well we also with a high degree of probability mutable are assuming it's. the intelligence services of certain countries are behind this mega provocation russia you've got to up north which has been whose name i know we can which one has no connection to the poisoning of screwballs is is more than anyone interested in determining the truth we will work hard towards establishing the truth. is going to be based on the provisions of the chemical quench and if the greater side will continue to use this suspicion as. you know in

a bubble and claim that these are evidence it will continue to base itself on assumptions rather than the facts and this will only confirm with dollars are our assumption which is quite likely more than the likelihood that is there all this very questionable case as been is a fabrication or rather that the worst form of provocation lead to his list of the he who hears and who he who has ears to hear let him hear you don't read usenet possibly because you see the only way to obtaining an objective of a truth by strictly complying with the mechanisms of the chemical weapons convention and cooperate in an investigation we also await answers to the very clear and questions from the british criminal investigation whatever we demand will consular access to us creep out of the so the so summing up what this is what the situation and risk of the richest was and i see the origin of the substance in

russia is not confined to there have been even before that we stated that we had nothing to do with it however we can you know we are we we seem to be people who are demanding that we that we acknowledge our guilt something you're going to deliver now and it's not me out because great britain refuses to cooperate with us on that pretext with that the victim can not cooperate with the criminal mores we need to well i'm really sorry as much in you must use your you or your appointment of us as a criminal without facts without evidence without a trial or investigation are no in void i would like you to point me to new battles meanwhile familiar a crime was committed and i'm going to territory and possibly terrorist act what you've lost against our citizens i knew then they happen to be the victims not you we mean this is why we are entitled to demand cooperation and great britain would.

is required to offer us that cooperation among them by the way it's funny that yesterday at the session of the executive council of the set of w. must be someone in your company several allies of great britain called on us to cooperate with the british side. probably they weren't the. there wasn't enough time to brief them in advance if not about what to say we have prepared a draft statement of the security council for that for the meeting it's very simple . this is a litmus test you're so used to a litmus test of whether great britain and its allies are true to their word used to happen if you just used we were to leave you just as last time if you bury this litmus it isn't a working which is a litmus test if you turn if you kind of turn it with no substance inside out it's meaning it will once again be further confirmation of your of your dirty games

and thank you very much. the representative of the russian federation for his statement you going up i love i'll give the floor to the representative of the united kingdom. thank you very much mr president we didn't seek this meeting but we take requests from the council to meet very seriously and i'm pleased to be able to update the council on stem developments but i'm also pleased to be able to provide the intellectual clarity that our russian colleague has called for and i will stick in my statement to the facts following the poisoning on fourth of march in salisbury of say again usually is. the u.k. has flown one of the most comprehensive and complex investigations into the use of

a chemical weapon ever it involves more than two hundred fifty police detectives they are supported by a range of specialist experts and partners they are trolling through more than five thousand hours of c.c.t.v. they are examining more than thirteen hundred seized exhibits and they are interviewing more than five hundred witnesses mr president in the u.k. the police are independent of government but if there are more details we can share with the council as the investigation proceeds we should be very happy to do so. we all know why that investigation is underway it's because the military grade nerve agent was used in attempt to kill civilians on british soil it was carried out recklessly and it was carried out without regard for public safety it was

a weapon of mass destruction. a british police officer was in a critical condition alongside the screen pals and ordinary members of the public getting to about their daily business were pushing risk. mr president i am glad not only to be able to inform the council that usually as cripple is able to communicate and it's getting better i can also clarify what the russian ambassador said about consular access we have received a request from the russian consulate we have conveyed it to yulia scream pile and we await her response this is an obligation under international law that the british government takes very seriously but there is also the question of misc repels own wishes that need to be taken into account. mr president the russian ambassador had several points to make about the u.k.

demands of russia. as he outlined on twelfth of march we asked the russian government a very clear question russia refused to respond and said it considered their request void it was indeed true mr president that we asked for a response within twenty four hours to the question of how did russian developed military grade nerve agent come to be used on the streets of seoul sprit and did that mean that russia had lost control of its c.w. stocks we said that russia should declare its not be chopped program to the o.p.c. w. we gave twenty four hours mr president because this is a weapon of mass destruction this is no ordinary poisoning and no ward narry attack and in our view the circumstances justified that tight deadline but notwithstanding that the russians said to us the request was now i'm for it they did not say please

give us more time they did not come to us and say we would like to look into this with you they rejected the very premise of the request we have said as the russian ambassador equated that it is highly likely russia carried out this assassination the british government came to that conclusion because the positive identification by experts at porton down of the specific chemical used is a type of not be kept nerve agent pushing down mr president is an accredited to the by a tree and and it conforms to the chemical weapons convention it is allowed to conduct protective research. the second reason that helped us come to our conclusion was the knowledge that russia has produced this nerve agent within the ten years and remains capable of doing so and as the prime minister made clear in the british

parliament we know that the russian state has investigated ways of assassination through the use of eight and the third reason is russia's record of conducting state sponsored assassinations and i don't want to detain the council mr president by going through a long list but i can provide examples if anyone would like to hear them and we also a major iranian cess meant that russia abused defectors a suitable target for assassination and indeed there are public statements from russian leaders to that effect i'd like you finally mr president just to say something about the use of the phrase highly likely. we use this phrase because under the british system only a court can finally determine culpability so the use of the phrase highly likely

is a reflection of our judicial process and should not be construed as constant doubt whatsoever on the likelihood of russia being responsible i would also like to take this opportunity to address the russian ambassador's comment about porton down contradicting the foreign secretary voiced johnson there was no contradiction the foreign secretary was making clear that porton down were sure the nerve agent was another truck a point that they have subsequently reinforced he goes on in the same interview to make clear why based on that information additional intelligence and as i said the lack of alternative explanation from the russians we have reached the conclusion we have what the foreign secretary said then what porton down he said recently is fully consistent with what we have said throughout in contrast mr president we

have had innumerable theories from the russians i think we have counted some twenty four in all. on the twenty first of march for exam for example the russian foreign ministry said they believe terrorists did it on the fourteenth of march mr lavrov said the british response was aimed at distracting from bricks it mr president the use of chemical weapons on any countries territory is far too serious for these theories to hold water. the chemical weapons convention which came into force twenty one years ago is clear in article seven that states should adopt legislation criminalizing activity prohibited under the convention that's why the u.k. is conducting a full investigation. the incident including under our very own chemical weapons act because of this we have in addition to the u.k. criminal investigation invited the a p c w the relevant international body to

assist in very fine ghar analysis and this is on the basis of article eight of the convention of the chemical weapons convention this mandates the technical secretary at to provide technical assistance and technical evaluation to state parties everything we have done mr president has been consistent with the convention the convention on chemical weapons and if i may say say mr president i won't take any lectures on morality or on our responsibilities under such international conventions from a country that has this council debated yesterday has done so much to block the proper investigation of the use of chemical weapons in syria your case track record on that mr president speaks for itself on twenty one march o.p.c.

w deployed a team to the u.k. to visit cations where the victims were exposed to a toxic chemical. the d g. briefed the o.p.c. w. executive committee yesterday on their actions o.p.c. w. experts collected environmental samples from the scene and biomedical samples from the victims o.p.c. w. has very finite the chain of custody of these samples have been sent to several designated to the poetry's for testing analysis from these the poetry's will now be returned to the o.p.c. w. and they will produce a report contrary to the russian claims mr president the united kingdom looks forward to sharing its findings once we have received that report. yesterday russia tabled resolution at the executive committee for pacing a joint investigation mr president there are several ways to view this joint

investigation i think the measure for that i find most apt is that of an arsonist turned firefighter but in this particular instance the arsonist wishes to investigate his aim fire. having failed to get a joint investigation the resolution received only six out of forty one votes in favor and without waiting for the outcome of a p c w testing russia has reverted to a familiar path of under nine inc the international institution involved there is no way the construction we can place on mr laffer ups remarks today that russia will accept results of the o.p.c. w soulsby poisoning investigation only if russian experts participate in it i am sorry mr president but that does not make it an independent investigation. if

russia insists on having its own expert it seeks to move away from the chemical weapons conventions stipulation and it is setting a test that no independent investigation could credibly tolerate. this is part of a wider pattern sadly of a responsible russian behavior russian russian discredited the joint investigation mechanism into use of chemical weapons in syria. ok right we're butting into this for just about a minute or so to let r.t. america go on a you can continue watching this online r.t. dot com karen pierce the u.k. representative there to the security council of that extraordinary meeting that's being called by russia in view of the ongoing scruple investigation. with more covering more of this because the u.s. is going to speak so in just a minutes time. henry

kissinger once said the brochure in the united states went into the ukrainian crisis acting rationally based on mutual misconceptions with tensions heightened over the scruple case other sites guided by misconceptions were deliberate misrepresentation. they've been waiting. for a long time because it talked about the dollar back that is the world reserve currency countries are tired of funding in america's wars because ever there's got to be trainer in dollars including oil to buy oil got to buy dollars first that means america gets a commission to use that line to wage wars all over the world. sell

to international just to love mccloy here in the evening you're seeing there on your screen and i'm going extraordinary meeting of the u.n. security council called the close of russia we already heard the russian representative speak current pierce the u.k. representative speaking at the moment it's streaming online r.t. dot com nikki haley the u.s. representative will be speaking this hour too will be across that story a lot to come out of it and some other news we're covering as well and neighborhood in paris turned gang land topsy gets a glimpse of what life is like for residents terrorized by migrant teenagers. plus coming up to a campaign for israeli women to keep their seats on airplanes instead of switching with ultra-orthodox jewish ones to block by authorities cause lot of controversy

across it as well.
