also. some of the.

stories from the week. welcome to the program. for the week. the week the main story and of course all of.

when i saw some heavy lifters hitting the pitch one of the tournament favorites staggered to victoria against australia after a controversial penalty decision iceland fans were delighted as their team world cup first time was held. to a draw with messi failing to get his penalty into the back of the net denmark took advantage of some sloppy finishing by peru to win their first group game in group c. meanwhile croatia tops group d. after defeating nigeria and his match analysis from co-host so it was a merino and peter schmeichel. it was. at.

the for. i don't think it's a fair result i think after the play at that pass to play the good game they couldn't play better than what they did with the potential they have i'll always like to praise the team that plays in their limits and i'll start the play in delhi means france has players to play better than what they did and i think they were a little bit a little bit lucky of course the penalty is a penalty of course the second goal is a goal but without. without yeah or without goal line technology the result would be different but i'm really happy that technology helped to give the

truth of the game. ah. i. had every right to be a strongly against and i have everyone said we will come here against france and you not being that we don't want what do we do if we did something. spicy varosha. messi was always trying to die it was clear that he just wasn't going from us it just wasn't his times. of course when you miss a penalty. in the world cup in a moment where your your team needs that the ball of course that affects you. and after that after that moment he was trying but probably even in

superman even in super players. they are humans and they have feelings and i think the penalty yes affected them. we have to look ahead i think we deserved three points but we have to keep calm and stay focused i think a lot of what we did was good but in any case we just have to try to win the croatian much i did my homework i looked at a lot of penalties from messi and i also looked at how i have been behaving in the last couple of penalties or tried to get into their minds and. imagine what they would be thinking about me so so all i had a good feeling that he would go. this way today let's look at some highlights go came. the quero here is a good finish because that one james i was after twenty minutes typical of the finishing is absolutely fantastic the problem for argentina was to create chances

but. everybody knows that part were always absolutely fantastic and with the back to the goal the way turns the gravity center very very low very powerful right and left the same so the shot is fantastic now at that point i'm sure i wasn't alone in thinking i k they're going to get a few more now argentina but that didn't happen and iceland got one back very quickly we can see that goal now to. a close range but nonetheless takes a strike as our saying it starts inside of the box on the right side the striker you know is this is a good finishing very confident if i could choose a word to describe their work compact no mental man against massa no mental man against anyone of of detecting players from. rajan tina just being come back i think these boys from iceland since they were babies they were eating a lot of meat on breakfast immediately all of them very very strong very very feeds and the football they play it's perfectly adapted to the way they do the way they

are. not. i . sleep i think. it's it's a big day for this michel family and you know if you have a son playing in the world cup like that is that something this is probably the

wrong word i don't know actions than yes yes that's a better word thanks for that i thought i was doing my vet called and i'd like to study that long and very i were were it was really a nerve wrecking the last period of the game for for me as a fan. and at the same time i have to say it wasn't a classic game it's not one of those you you want to watch again i think peru i haven't found i feel. they were. trying the huffing and puffing but nothing really came to have a few chances but i think clearly that the end of the first hour and how that penalty called a wasted opportunity to you didn't it because this is the instance of the penalty itself so so there after he went to. the video system no referee and he

decided it was a penalty. but i don't know what what he's was doing here i mean the lack of concentration the sort of the stop on the step up but it was. eventually he missed a penalty and i have to say i'm still a little bit in doubt trying to be neutral and objective i'm a little bit in doubt if you really was offensive but then the day he missed a penalty so that's no debate overall the saving are you satisfied with denmark's performance i mean marks out of ten what would you give them in terms of performance yeah in terms of output and game ten in terms of performance half way there i think the five i think this team could do so much more than what really works well today was the defense so they defended really well.

argentina fans though were left prostrate after the clash with iceland on saturday especially those that have pinned hopes on one player in particular.

now more than two million fans of come to russia to cheer their teams and love along with the adult kids who are also enjoying the incredible atmosphere during the world cup. some of the tournament smaller fans. it's going to be. the body of this board that i see you. i started the most but as part of that i see . just that. it's a scene. just the same it's born that i see and they have a. bit of a. mismatch as they know for us the course is right what's your name. how old are you living right so you're cheering for. your from poland.

family. ok so what have you how long have you stayed in moscow so far on the. water. how do you find moscow it's really funny there's a lot of plates here with the world cup it makes an amazing have you heard any rumors about like russian hooligans or russian hackers a while in america. russian spies how many people are spying on you right now on oh probably like a living thousand people are watching me ok so i knew any one of them could be spies yeah all right so you're you're suspect if you're not letting your guard down i'm not. there's still plenty to look forward to on sunday costa rica play serbia in somalia and five time champions brazil with star striker neymar take on switzerland while defending champions germany make mexico right in the capital mexico held the final pre-game training session at moscow's luzhniki stadium and

they have a tough challenge ahead meeting germany which tops the latest rankings the next mexico as you go to avenge last year's defeat to germany at the confederations cup . germany four time world cup winners are known for their great performance they can boast a depth of tournament experience as they've played with more world cup matches than any other nation and mexico was also no newbie to the tournament having taken part in sixteen world cups and not having missed a tournament in more than two decades though they've never actually managed to lift the famous trophy in our world cup co-host of jersey but in your wall so gave us his predictions for the upcoming germany mexico clash. germany and. germany the no. no why did we and i think they're going to

stick exactly the same principles mexico is a very interesting team very creative very funny way to play and to enjoy it but i think once more the power of. so was the big games draw closer we'll be joining our special studio in the heart of moscow hope you can stay tune for our special world cup coverage throughout the day. the world cup is a chance to show its best face to the world but the british media are working hard to dig up negative stories about the country wherever they can find them the sun newspaper published this article titled russia in the role of hopelessness desperation and crushing poverty here is one of the accompanying images so showing

two women well relaxing on their work there are also pictures though of homeless people and alcoholics the images were taken by a russian photographer volunteer who often travels the country and has some of his other work from the same instagram page which the chose not to use as you can see the photos are capture a wide variety of scenes are showing everyday life here in russia we spoke to the photographer he says the newspaper cherry picked his images to fit their own storyline which had very little to do with the truth and also that they misled him about their intentions. a few days ago i received a letter from the sun newspaper over a story about my photos and my work from time to time i get offers like this from local and international outlets i didn't know at the time what this particular outlet was so i thought it was interesting so i wrote list discuss this they were originally offered to write about my work i work with multiple humanitarian

organizations in many of them as a volunteer and about with third of my instagram consists of pictures taken during my work with different institutions after that those who contacted me disappeared and in a couple of days people started sending me links to a story where a weird selection of social storylines had been mixed with a dumb commentary on the world cup i got angry wrote to them demanding that the story was deleted they later sent me a letter where they requested permission to use the photos i didn't give any but that did not stop them and first they offered to fix it and they offered money but only when i threatened a lawsuit did they delete it but as far as i understand those hours of useless conversations where they tried to offer me some two hundred fifty pounds or aimed at using traffic they got in that time i work with multiple charities i feel different socially important stories i don't think they're a subject of speculation by anyone china has requested

a comment from the sun on this matter well bring it bring it the response when we hear something. now crowds have rallied in athens against a naming agreement for the country now known as the republic of northern macedonia . dolphins of people gathered in the greek capital calling for the deal between the two countries to be council the new name mold in macedonia has caused widespread anger and greece says it sounds too similar to the greek often called macedonia decided upon as a compromise with athens which has for years refused to recognize the name republic of macedonia. just.

it is good to have you with us today the leaders of the u.s. and north korea have hailed the historic summit held on tuesday as a success saying it lays the groundwork for the potential denuclearization of the korean peninsula in exchange for kamal jong un and giving up his nuclear arsenal donald trump has committed to providing security guarantees for the pyongyang regime the us president suggested after the meeting that the two had formed a strong relationship and they intend to meet again with the turnaround in relations came just months after the pair had been threatening each other with all out war so we have developed a very special bond. north korea best not

make any more threats to the united states they will be met with fire and fury and have mad men out there shooting rockets all over the place you will have no choice but to totally destroy north korea rocket man is a sick puppy. a frightened dog barks louder i will surely indefinitely tame the mentally deranged us with fire. this is true is proven over and over again and visitors can indeed become friends both very honored to sign the document thank you. today we had a story meeting and decided to leave the possible we're very proud of what took place today and it worked out for both of us far better than anybody even predicted it's an honor to be with you.

story talks were first announced in march but in may kim voiced his anger over military drills between south korea and the u.s. and threaten to call the summit off the nine days later counseled the meeting accusing him of hostility for the next day the white house on pyongyang said things are back on track on the first of june washington officially announced the summit would go ahead and while the singapore summit saltram promise to guarantee the north security in exchange for his denuclearization john yang a might have reason

to remain wary of its historic adversary as might have guessed he explains. what's not to like a new nuclear disarmament deal potentially one less country with nukes where rule better off would have us and we have this truly historic moment on film. so why does kim jong jr seems to suspicious could be anything poison assassins or trump just waiting to backstab him the united states will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal come to think of it america's nuclear deals to seem to last exactly as long as the

incumbent president take the rainy and deal brock obama his partner has worked on it for years so much work so much effort just for trump to tear it all up don't forget obama negotiated the arendelle one of the worst disasters the dumbest deals ever negotiated except don't feel sorry for a bomber just yet george bush his predecessor also struck a nuclear disarmament deal with gadhafi the two leaders discussed this agreement should help to bring a painful chapter in the history between our two countries closer to closure it worked gadhafi gave up his nukes and what does a bomber do well he goes and bombs gadhafi is army alternately allowing the rebels to gruesomely murdered him we came we saw them died. it's

almost like something out of game of thrones and we aren't even done bush in turn screwed over bill. clinton started to roll back north korea's potentially deadly nuclear program we'll continue to implement the agreement we have reached with that nation get smart it's tough clinton had worked for years to make a deal with kim jong un's father to prevent then north korea from making a nuclear weapon and bush tore it up as seems to be tradition north korea is a regime arming with missiles and weapons of mass destruction while starving its citizens states like these and their terrorist allies constitute an axis of evil trump is one for tradition in fact he has a habit of tearing up documents memos papers when he's done with them he had a bunch of guys at the white house whose job it was to piece back together the

papers he shouldn't have torn up literally had to spend hours per day. piecing together the puzzle. and here we are generations of presidents generations of the trail double crossing and deception and it seems that hasn't been lost on kim. on wednesday saudi led forces launched the largest offensive yet on yemen targeting hooty militias in the port city of her data her data is a vital gateway for food supplies in the country and fear the battle for the city would worsen the already critical humanitarian crisis in yemen where it's estimated over eight million people are now on the brink of starvation well aid agencies for example and the united nations have to cried the saudi led incursion united nations envoy to the country is currently holding emergency talks in the capital in

a bid to broker a cease fire after expressing concern over the escalation of the conflict. you know that. more. than anything saudi arabia has defended the us told with the country's crown prince saying it so the interests of the yemeni people. the coalition's operations to liberate data is part of the coalition's unwavering commitment to support the people of yemen against the tyranny imposed by iranian backed militias that are

spreading chaos and destruction in yemen addressing the humanitarian situation in a sustainable and effective manner requires liberating yemen from the control of who the rebels which intentionally disrupt the flow and distribution of humanitarian supplies it's the first time the riyadh led coalition of nine arab states has tried to take such a heavily defended city center thank ocean start having twenty fifteen aid organizations working in the country say that a significant part of the yemeni population relies on the seaport for food and that the offensive poses a risk to the already already. drastically limited supplies. the salt risk to exacerbate an already cut us traffic humanitarian situation in yemen and indeed their concerns are two fold first offered to six hundred thousand people who believe in hard data and who must be spared so here we launch an appeal to all those fighting in this conflict reminding them of their obligation under international law to spec civilians to spare civilian infrastructure such as hospitals and water and electricity networks us with us to allow those who would

like to free to do so safely but beyond these hoodie days a lifeline for millions and millions of yemenis and later the mindset that yemen is a country of twenty nine million people and three out of each four yemenis need to many their needs most of these aid comes through the port of data so these aid not be able to flow into these poor it would put that risk literally millions of lives well there are many challenges in. not enough humanitarian good he's being provided . after thirty years of war forty years of war. he's already. field you understand that not enough is being done we need more and more doctors on the ground but we need also the warring parties to respect the humanitarian organizations to respect the population to to to expect

internationally many to in low and above all allowing population to have access to food to water to health care and disease is not happening in yemen and this is at international the weekly britta perry said. in the. north pole and my uncle the kid same compensate all boil to deny him nobody. can see them no food no nothing because. it's not. going to. move on which i did on the bench about the movies because of almost an infant who

going to be out in show who still certainly must. not so much because i was it is a constant that he was a sidekick nuff says among others. on. whether they should go to one of the four something being one because. the bus route. just me my one telling me are well me and nothing. but the foreseeable. future. in which we. both get. home i was losing my life how many jobless nothing makes me.
