russia's u.n. envoy describes the u.k.'s allegations in the screwball poisoning case as absurd meeting at the security council. partly because it's a district of paris where the soaring crime rate has been blamed on gangs of migrant teenagers. but the campaign for israeli women to keep their seats on airplanes instead of switching with ultra orthodox jewish men is blocked by authorities. this is arch international certainly glad to have you with us now world powers have concluded a meeting at the u.n. security council on the screen paul poisoning case the russian ambassador addressed
8:01 pm
to the chamber for more than half an hour slamming the u.k.'s claims of kremlin involvement in last month's attack on the former double agent and his daughter. yes good it's when you let's look at it cynically why would russia wait eight years and decide to actually two weeks you have the election into the in a few months but who won't come cheap to me why was he even released from the country in the first place why eliminates him in a strange and dangerous monitors convened by the russian federation and when the un security council gathered the meeting opened with remarks by the russian ambassador in which he essentially said that moscow is demanding answers he pointed out the allegations were leveled against russia just hours after the attack a taken place and that those allegations are hard to believe as neither boris johnson or theresa may or chemical experts who went on to point out that porton down laboratory which actually tested the chemical substances did not say what the origin of the chemicals was it had no way of determining that now we then heard
8:02 pm
from the russian representative and the ambassador of the russian federation said that the allegations were absurd. and so it's lost a little more strength and mentioned don't stand crime and punishment saying given the its main intrigue was whether the culprit would confess before getting cool the novel by the way is not about that's the tool it's not a detective story it's a work of serious philosophical literature i would advise bruce johnson to read other works of the stand scheme or at least learn the titles little british intelligence has immediately rushed to burst its new rescue mode just like me but it was at the interview you see now russia has offered a joint investigation into the incident however it seems pretty clear that the united kingdom does not want that these are the remarks that we heard from the ambassador representing the united kingdom before the security council mr president there are several ways to view this joint investigation i think the message for
8:03 pm
this and i find most that it is that have been lost in this ten five fight but in this particular instance the arsonist wishes to investigate his. saying. i am sorry mr president but that does not make it an independent investigation not sponsored we are being urged to admit that we did it is but we are telling you that we did not they say there is not enough and ask how we did it and when we asked for any proof they tell us no just confesses that would be best for you yulia scriptural has actually given her first statement to the u.k. police and she is apparently recovering from the incident so a lot of questions are remaining and this could be the beginning of a new chapter in the investigation into what exactly happened in salisbury but the focus of the meeting seemed to be russia you know strongly urging the world not to make assumptions and to look into the actual facts of the case. and private
8:04 pm
investor and author trolls or tell told us the screwball case is being used by some in the u.k. and the us as it is traction from domestic problems it just doesn't make any sense it doesn't serve russia's interest what it does do is it serves to heighten the tensions between the u.k. and russia maybe now the u.s. and russia and who benefits from that i think it's elements within the american deep state allied actors in the u.k. this comes at the same time as we have lingering serious questions over the provenance of the steel dossier and you know how this robert mole investigation actually came to happen so you know i think we we really need to you know calm down a little bit and search for evidence jointly and i don't i don't like it what i what i see somebody make claims that aren't supported. or during the security council session the russian and u.k. envoys trying to accusations and at one point they resorted to quoting from lewis
8:05 pm
carroll's classic alice in wonderland. come yet please your majesty serve the word that i have a jumping up in the great hurry this paper has just been picked up what's in it so the queen i haven't opened it yet so the word that i would but it seems to be a letter written by the prison the dude to somebody it must have been that so the king unless it was really good nobody are they the prison scandal writing us in other of the judum nor their knots of the word that they would and that's to queerness think about it the jury will look puzzled he must have imitated somebody is all sense of the king the jury all brightened up again please your majesty said the mate i didn't write it and become provided there is no name signed at the end if you didn't sign it said the king that only makes the matter worse you must have meant some mischief let the jury consider the verdict the king served for about the twenty's time that day no more said the queen sentence first verdict
8:06 pm
afterwards woman does that remind you of anything as a. very good quote alice in wonderland that is sometimes i believe it's many it's six impossible things before breakfast say i think that's the quake that seats my russian colleague best when spite of the serious undertones to the u.n. meeting the atmosphere between the russian and u.k. envoys was not entirely hostile as you can see by silly new benzine and karen appears found time for a friendly chat during a break in the session britain's case against russia has been somewhat undermined by a controversial claim from the u.k. foreign minister that is what i have had his very own commentary. it's a right old kid on drugs on the one hand you skip the trial screamed guilty and
8:07 pm
jump to the punishment part on the other your own guys come out and say hold on there's no evidence and i was his by were living experts at the defense science and technology laboratory at portadown made clear that this was a military grade novacek nerve agent produced in russia we have not verified the precise source you have not been able to establish that this was made in russia as i said it's our job to provide you know the scientific evidence that identifies what the particular nerve agent is but typically you're not able at porton down to say where it is from we haven't yet been able to do that well that's embarrassing alright keep calm first google back on your word and just to be sure delete any old tweets then riposte experts who say the opposite of what you said our experts have precisely identified in their region as nabil chalk it is not
8:08 pm
and has never been our responsibility to confirm the source of the agent now pretend that nothing happened which is hard to do in the end to that really the brits ended up having to explain themselves and conveniently scapegoated the poor fellow who transcribed the briefing one of the tweets was truncated and did not accurately report her master's words we removed this tweet you remember what i said about scapegoating he really did but barge johnson himself had said almost the same thing said it's on video you argue that their source of the chalk is russia how did you manage to find it out so quickly when i look at the the evidence i mean the people from from portland. they were absolutely categorical and i asked the guy myself i said are you sure and he said there's no doubt wouldn't want to be in their shoes right about now yet they did find
8:09 pm
a way around it a simple statement saying that boris johnson didn't mean it like that with the fern circles he said then and what putin donna said recently is fully consistent with what we've said throughout having taken things so far so fast they can't afford to do a u. turn this investigation could end in two ways with proof of russia's guilt or with an uncomfortable silence and hope that everyone forgets until then boris keep doing what you do every day you're the one thing going on. and we are rushing you not sure. it's the government for you russia. poisoning of surrogates creep out is not an isolated case but the latest in a pack of reckless behavior by the russian state the russians the russians russian
8:10 pm
russia russia russia russia i'm afraid the evidence is overwhelming that it is russia and boris johnson a serious questions too so he claimed on german television this was a russian produced nerve agent and porton down then examined it and said all that if i was not true they couldn't say where it came from. opposition politicians in the u.k. have been ridiculing that boris johnson on twitter and the shadow home secretary said that perhaps mr johnson might also want to delete that german t.v. interview others stressed the need to check evidence while labor politician chris williams then called the johnson downright dangerous and says the incident being used as a diversionary tactic. seems to me the government were indulging in political point scoring particularly boris johnson who raced ahead of the evidence and used this
8:11 pm
terrible incident not so much as a smoking gun but more the slower screen really it was a very convenient wasn't for the government to use this as a way of diverting attention from their own difficulties over bricks economic policy and you know at the end of the day it's pretty clear that boris johnson did not tell the truth he told to german interviewer that. scientist called out it said it was without doubt that the agents had to come from russia so i think germany called him was absolutely right to caution to ask for clear evidence before we start to raise international tensions but we need to get to the bottom i mean the evidence and jeremy said this seem to point towards russia but let's be absolutely clear before we start raising international tensions in this way this is huge implications for more sensible to take a measured approach and be clear about the evidence and all the evidence. in one of the most visited cities in the world some locals are living in fear as gangs
8:12 pm
take over their streets are to want to meet residents of a crime ridden neighborhood in paris. as you exit the metro in much of paris is eighteenth out of the small the first thing you go chase groups of young men locals claim they migrants mostly from new faffing they say they formed gangs and generally wreak havoc theft is common and it's clear even the police feed this area as problematic within minutes were offered advice from an officer of the government but. i've often feel ok we see police stopping young men and searching that banks. locals say that being terrorized by a group of around sixty juvenile. migrants from morocco but because they teenagers the police rarely do anything more than give them
8:13 pm
a caution before letting go again. of fighting between them like with knives you know what time of night when it's no. law. on the morning like five six o'clock the morning you know. it's like the god of the like the one is falling on. them it's like yeah you know it's like like you lady like you know it's. like you know and it would be. yeah yeah it's. easy to know is there and the problem there is from him from you know this is part of the gang he was referring to they look like young children but local say they've had enough of them fifteen hundred have signed a petition for action those who know the area say residents are taking precautions such as. that so that it is seen. as you should be but in the first
8:14 pm
move. the to. the city has tried to deal with the problem the teacher allocated seven hundred year of this new center trying these children off the streets but it seems most showed no interest in peace and support it seems they prefer to live on the streets surviving on the mystery birds charlotte devinsky. tyrus. opposition politician mikhail told us the french government needs to take much tougher action against teenage tax . did you determine what is the body police in the eighteenth district of paris is doing what they can they have a huge amount of work they need to control the entire area where there is a growing problem with delinquency they doing their best but they should be judicial response to that a strong response from the government and there is none we are living in
8:15 pm
a country where in certain places delinquency in violence are rampant with no punishments. the facebook data scandal continues to snowball that story much more still to come you are watching our two international. make its manufacture consent to step into public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. with the final merry go round the sun we don't want. to ignore middle of the room six. million. little blog selling you on the idea that dropping bombs brings can use the chicken
8:16 pm
hawks forcing you to fight the battle. for new socks credit tell you that celebrity gossip the tabloids i fell. off the bad guys and tell you on. that like their products. are the hawks that we along with all worth watching. i. welcome back this is art international live from moscow now facebook has admitted that the scale of a recently uncovered data breach was far larger than previously thought the web giant says that the profiles of up to eighty seven million people could have been shared with a researcher from cambridge analytical however the company that is accused of illegally using the information disputes that saying that its reach was much smaller in total we believe the phrasebook information of up to eighty seven
8:17 pm
million people mostly in the u.s. may have been improperly shared with cambridge and. cambridge analytical license data for no more than thirty million people a consultancy firm is accused of using the private information of facebook users for targeted political campaigning among the companies client list were donald trump hillary clinton and barack obama and it appears many politicians across the globe have also used cambridge analytical services in an attempt to swaying public opinion but facebook is now saying cambridge analytic is not alone in trying to mine private data and almost all of the networks two billion accounts may have been compromised internet law and media experts told us that there is a lack of awareness about how people's data is being used. kember generally the guys denying the figure they claim that it is only thirty million but i don't think it makes a lot of the from the very thirty million to late a million is the principle behind the old story about what about the use of
8:18 pm
internet robots as we call them books in order to meddle with the us elections now still stories seem now a little bit out of they are a little bit ridiculous nobody is talking about it but it was very interesting to hear his desire to beg only a couple of weeks ago. almost apologizing for allowing them to leave the boxes today that it was then being you're doing election is the this story was about influencing election but by body. rather than to see news as they've done locally this is a company that route so rapidly now the people who are managing facebook lost control of their creation and the whole business model of facebook is built on this idea that they they collect highly targeted data on their users and then sell that
8:19 pm
data to advertisers and others and i think there just wasn't enough oversight of that process. israeli authorities have blocked advertisements urging female passengers not to switch seats with ultra orthodox jewish men on airplanes billboards in tel aviv airport were due to go up during the passover holiday saying ladies please take your seat and keep it traditionally ultra orthodox jewish men refuse to sit next to women because of their religious beliefs and it can cause the lace director of the israeli religious action center told us about the campaign. and what we wanted to do this passover of this month is passive aggressive because of the here in israel and a lot of people are traveling one to. hang a poster which is basically a public service announcement letting women know if their rights is passengers and we were denied by the israel airport authority we wanted to pay for it. lucidly at they just said the campaign was not authorized. and when we turned to the media
8:20 pm
when the media asked them they said that it was not inflammatory but it was a controversial campaign and they didn't want it to be in the airports in recent years the number of disputes between female passengers and altro orthodox men has increased some women have taken their complaints to court a year ago a judge ruled in favor of a woman who said she felt humiliated after being asked to move she was eighty three year old rene rabinowitz a holocaust survivor and retired lawyer she sued israel's national airline for discrimination the court ordered the airline to pay eighteen hundred dollars in compensation the israel religious action center again released a video explaining what rights women have in the situation. there's a growing trend the courageous men who simply refused to sit next to women on planes because of the demands of the female passenger on the move or on the seebohm sit down instead of telling the men to sit down the woman is dealt with severe
8:21 pm
pressure by fellow passengers and the flight attendant until she gives up and seat and it was first i want to make sure that we don't generalize this not all. this way but some do we've had several reports of a case where. an author of the man who was. refused to sit next to a woman you had the boarding. boarding pass with the seat just next to a woman didn't arrange the head a time and there was no place for him to move and the woman next to him didn't want to see what he does he doesn't want to sit down if he refuses to sit down then he'd delays the entire flight and so both the flight attendant and other passengers begin to pressuring begin pressuring the women to move and that's basically what we're opposing we think that's bullying i think that the airline should be very very clear saying if you have not arranged you're sitting with the four. before
8:22 pm
boarding then you have to either take your seat or get off the plane and you're not going to be compensated. u.k. has opened a military base in bahrain housing five hundred navy personnel and inauguration ceremony was held on the day it was the first permanent british base in the middle east since the one nine hundred seventy s. and will be able to serve minesweepers and aircraft carriers construction was funded mainly by plane well maybe commander steve dainton said the facility will help bolster security on key shipping routes the aim of the war may be being altshuler anyway is to enhance and ensure. in the in the region the more than or touch. the more northern the high seas countering piracy countering terrorism. in short the high seas or. for the free flow of commerce the free flow of trade to be able to say place. or british military support for bahrain comes despite global scrutiny of the gulf monarchies human rights record human rights watch has accused
8:23 pm
the country of widespread torture in jailing peaceful protesters political analyst dan glazebrook told us that the u.k. has a long history of propping up hardline regimes in the middle east. rein saudi arabia the same families in power today were put in power by a british right britain in the nineteenth and early twentieth century they've always depended on britain and to an extent the usa for their own survival and this was the deal britain will control your foreign policy. and will but will provide your security will naval you to stay in power so they're beefing up their military presence in the region and the beefing up the naval presence in bahrain is all is all part of that so what's in it for bahrain is regime survival they will not be in power as a ruling family without that western support so the west gets to demand naval bases or whatever it wants and even demand that they pay for them because it knows this is a quid pro quo they won't survive without the west support so they have to accept it
8:24 pm
because if britain and the us withdraw their support for the bahraini ruling clique they'll be overthrown tomorrow either does it for me i'll be back in about thirty six minutes with a full look at you stay with us this is international. also was to question whether it was very reasonable to react with sanctions and up breaking the dialogue between the russian still was to come to the east. also is one of those countries that is firmly convinced that it is necessary and will be necessary to keep up this dialogue and still talk. about all the metros. henry kissinger once said that russia in the united states went into the ukrainian

. not bad with them but oh november that if i say i love them they're down to my compound on their own but i have the only thing it is about. greetings and salutations. nothing like a nice cool drink of water especially when it's extracted by a multibillion dollar corporate conglomerate for practically nothing at the expense of the surrounding community we begin today at the white pine springs well located near the city of ev art of the great midwestern state of michigan where international corporate food giant nestle has been applying for
8:27 pm
a permit to increase the amount of fresh water it can suck out of michigan's groundwater table and that the upgrade would be fifteen hundred leaders or two hundred fifty gallons per minute right now and it would upgrade to nine hundred forty six leaders or four hundred gallons a minute that's roughly five hundred seventy six thousand gallons of water a day all for nestle's ice mountain water brandon because when one thinks of mountains and ice you naturally envision central michigan i do all the time and nestle is getting its wishes because on monday of this week the michigan department of environmental quality or d.e.q. approved nestle's permit despite of the detroit free press reports vehement opposition to the permit from residents not to see all the county where the nestle well is located the d.e.q. said the permit met the requirements of the michigan safe drinking water act just how vehement you ask well how about eighty thousand public comments against
8:28 pm
nestle's plans to just seventy five comments for yes i said eighty he the house and people against nestle's moves there that's roughly the size of most large us suburban cities. you know it appears once again corporate power reigns over the will of the people and the safety of the environment let's start watching the hawks . what. it looks like real that this would. actually lead to the blood of. like you know that i got. this. week so. welcome aboard the wonder of the hawks i am

8:30 pm
michigan radio had kind of compiled all of the complaints and what it is are three three basic things you know with corporate greed versus people in the environment water isn't for profit and you know the. the worries about privatizing water and privatizing natural resources which is serious state senator rebecca warren democrat from ann arbor had said that michigan ours no that no private company should be able to generate profits by undermining our state's precious natural resources which is what is why an unprecedented number of people spoke up to oppose this permit for that's what sort of strange is the complaint is always you know well people aren't involved enough you don't vote enough you don't do this enough it's always the people's fault you know the right person to get elected because the people are afraid in right to vote the right way here are people saying we do not want this here we do not want this in our community we don't want this to happen and yet their elected officials and their council.
