and so it was in my blood just to follow on from there for the farm for as long as i can remember really i think it was the nine hundred ninety eight world cup the recession first comment. on life in the south on themes to russia over the last four years quite frequently . some of the scientists have never seen it. for a hot head absolutely miles and while i'm. had to post facts of. wellfleet try to act. in this town for the safety from sense of come from this bill a lot of bad press accounts like you're thinking seriously i'm going to use the techniques i. like to see when i went to the confederations cup competition off as

we talked to a source of the law and you will the police put the. corporation with a challenge to. the security measures. from the genesis of drawing him because he's going out and you know if he's offering enough traffic safety in the truck. and last but not least let's round up that early reaction from thursday group eight so a couple of all new victories senegal were defeated by colombia not meant to japan when three despite losing to poland by the same school here the goals. i.

god was. a it . so in those games we saw columbia they beat senegal one nil to take them top of that group which was some achievement and then we had to john that because poland who had not played very well in this tournament for today beat japan one nil and the way that group finished was as i said colombia on top six points. winning that group and then japan and senegal both on four points. both on a full three goal to for a goal scored and goals conceded so it's always full four and it ended up. like that i see the number of yellow cards and senegal will be kicking themselves

that they can't see many of their opponents and it cost them ultimately set a goal six yellow cards were given six you look us in this tournament in japan only full and that's a reason that japan are now in the last sixteen and send it all on the way home so we're down to maybe the smallest of margins. and that is the threat it's drawing go at least at this point so we have a finish on top. of group g. which is like saying that and belgium will play japan in and us in knots in a row so that's one. place to plan and raw stuff and. the runners up at the spa thanks to you saying these are all that is a play at the performing in moscow that making the journey can see not just those two places at a level on the opposite sides of the draw but as we've seen from the teams they picked tonight hard to see that two. bothered about well they play well he they

play get in the lineups. it's too much to have four players to go on the page you know if you do this we'll and it's too much but the managers in picking the teams having seen what has happened is probably pick the teams or they have probs pick the teams. yesterday or even even before then. they they wouldn't like this that the manager is a taking this approach of ice i would suggest that we're going to have to beat the best teams if we're going to win this competition we'll just take it let's let the you know the colors fall where they may and will take us again going back to the teams you might end up having five players injured for the next game it can happen in training you have to remember these players most of the players. on spec today are playing in the prime and it's the hardest leak in the completely recover from from the mental stress so you're on in england it carries on actually take it's worse when you get to christmas and then you play just before christmas you plan

twenty six on the training and you if that if it fits in with the week you played before new year's eve sometimes you play new year's eve and then the f.a. cup starts just after the new law when you don't want to will cut for more than fifty years because that's the time. to be completely honest i think it's part of the problem it's not that the only problem but it's part of the problem is once you get to may and that's another thing the prime minister before all the other leagues and it finishes before the other leagues so once you get to may you completely drained then you get a break yes and you think oh put the breaks good for you but that's not the time you want to break if you're playing the world cup you want to have maybe two three four days off and then you go into the training camp you have the ten days you always have prior to its ornament and then go straight into it but know you've had a big break and that means that you have to sort of pick yourself up one more time do a preach what i meant trainings to sort of regime. we call it pre-season. but you

have to do a lot of physical work again and at that time delayed me maybe even if i did you it's not the time that you wonder and so you know it's stressful here is an opportunity today for the managers to not to rest a player but to see someone else that i might as a manager need in the game coming up could be the next one could be the one after that you don't know if you see the previous world cups relative unknowns emerging getting their pitching zero and government both hands. welcome back to headquarters with me in a day or two don't we continue with our football coverage now both england and belgium are already through to the last sixteen meeting fans can relax and just enjoy the game in kaliningrad but you don't have to be in kaliningrad to enjoy the atmosphere fans in moscow packed into the fans and to watch the game you can now see live pictures from lot area and it is absolutely packed for many of the supporters who come to russia it's their first ever trip to the country.

mark ground ball the ball that will last longer and so it was in my blood to follow the football from for as long as i can remember really i think it was the nine hundred ninety eight world cup the reverse first i mean. i'm lucky. with russia over the last four years quite frequently. some of the. absolutely miles and well i'm going to. have those facts of things you're saying.

wellfleet tried to ask. i don't really understand the safety concerns of come from this bill a lot of bad press accounts and you're thinking seriously i'm going to think it's been happening for i'd. like to stay when i went to the confederations cup competition no fear i will be top police officer the law any of the police but the army was in cooperation with each other too in holland the security much of. the. problem being jealous of drawing him because he's going in and you know if you've read enough from safety in the trial i'm not going to ha. ah ah. sun newspaper was among those reporting russia as a dangerous violent and homophobic place but it had sports reporter martin lipton who's in the country sees it differently the work of the russian people is being

clear to everyone the organization has been sued previously i've always from version people summer movies. that they appear to be at least at this moment open and friendly. people everywhere i would just like to say i know so i'm just blown away by how brilliantly in the transport system is because the london underground really is a disaster and these flights you can get anywhere in no time which are with a much bigger city don't talk to my kids and my wife i'm saying to them she's fantastic it's like i think people were safe if they were put in a position where they soon the worst was always they should assume the best. but there you go and danny danny's family of seven vices i mean one in don't cast anywhere weighing them play with the same bust of a mosque. whatever it might be able see a part of the world that never dreamed of going to and traveled just pulled in the mind by its very nature that's going to be positive and they will go home with

a very different image of of russia because they've experienced that they had heretofore based on history it's been a real pleasure to be here not salute joy. ok we've just had a score now belgium has scored against england so the score is not one nail in that match in kaliningrad and we'll of course keep you updated as and when if any ethical scored from either team it's not only fans from across the world catching the football fever person who's no stranger to sports paid a visit to the fifa world cup football park in red square a stone's throw from his prime and office he even showed off some of his footballing skills. so that. you would see just. putin was the biggest political star on the pitch that speaking of footballing legends well there's plenty of those behind me defending the post behind me for a lot of it was real madrid's goalkeeping genius because he is also going to be

worse as. the world champion twenty ten with team oh say. with the limitation of germany for me spain is a clear favorite to win this woke up there's also brazil i think the whole world wants to see here in moscow spain and brazil playing in the final however with the surprise elimination of germany anything might happen. now interestingly enough played against him in this game that was. his former national team mate outlets and this is how all of the footballing legend on the pitch results from now there was also here in the role as one of the team's coaches diary member was chasing down you know those stickers with his photographs back in the ninety's the president infantile you know was issued here and he made us somewhat of an address i believe a great celebration great matches perfect organization hospitable country you

just walk around the city you can see men women boys with different shirts from different countries around the world celebrating together this will give off now this game of course was not broadcast to every bar and pop in moscow and rest of russia and abroad but it just showcases how special the existing russia is nearly everybody here and how deeply the world cup fever has rooted itself in russia a thousand fans taking pictures and videos during the world cup and russia started to compile the best of them you can check out our fans i project on our website that's. here are some of the fun that we'll be sharing that teams today was. the. thank you.

thank you. thank. you. oh. the streets of paris are once again packed with protesters denouncing french president among and tax reforms it's part of a mass nationwide protest over government report over films shot and to penske has more. oh thousands of come out onto the streets of paris another day of protests against the marconi government we've seen the police already trying to split up

some of the protests taking place as you see some people behind us launching smoke poems and they have also been throwing firecrackers into the crowd as well they hit to protest is what they see as the roys institutional inequality in fact they see the exclusion of social inequality that's been happening in since my phone came into power they hate demands an increase in wages an increase in pension to store but the gender gap between men and women in terms of their wages and this is the first into a professional say between one of the unions the c.d.g. and another union the f.o. sings came to power as what we have here are students teaching is other people from across the civil service as well as the railway workers who are on their last day of the continuous three month strike that we've had against reorganization over the

s.n.c.f. that is the railway here in france that we have seen some limited violence from a smooth group of protesters known they couldn't cells empty fascist anti capitalists we sued them actually attempting to smash and assumes building an insurance building in coffee to the outside of it and it wasn't long after that that the police started to come out the c.r.s. police came out and tried to break this protest up into jokes to try and manage any potential violence for the moment the pool is calm the people here say they won't present my call to here they cools so far he hasn't unlike other french leaders he has it removed because he's ignored the protest in his clout on the head with his plan of government the plan he said he'd. last year for the moment this protest is being relatively peaceful but we know that there are small contingent here who are hell bent on achieving some sort of violet's there is

a strong police presence see show that you can still. buy to the global news now the u.s. president says the world has to start getting along and says he was talking about the upcoming summit with president putin the first between the two leaders the meeting will be held in helsinki next month caleb moore joins me now live with more details on this caylee a highly anticipated meeting what more do we know so far. well indeed now we did just hear trump saying to the press pool that he is looking forward to the meeting speaking optimistically about it and furthermore we have a recent tweet from the u.s. president saying quote russia continues to say they had nothing to do with meddling in our election where is the d.n.c. server and why didn't shady james komi and now disgraced f.b.i. agents take a look to closely examine it so it appears that that donald trump is anticipating

this meeting and it's you know optimistic anticipation now western media doesn't exactly see it that way and seems to view it with kind of anticipation there could be concessions made by trump at the meeting but the european union does welcome the summit we have stoltenberg from the european european union saying there is no way we can improve the relationship with with russia without meeting russia dialogue is not a sign of weakness and dialogue is a sign of strength other you officials have made statements to that effect however there has been a great deal of anxiety talk that trump may be making concessions to putin so you know the whole world is anticipating this meeting eyes are on the upcoming meeting we have the recent comment from trump seems as if he is looking forward to the meeting but it will be the first summit between the two leaders and many are wondering what the outcome will be. thank you and thanks for the update on like

and we'll see how that meeting goes your way earlier we asked broadcaster and writer mary did jet ski why some in the international community as so anxious about the meeting partially because of all the investigations that are currently happening in washington about whether russia interfere in the presidential election in the united states whether indeed there was some people claim collusion between trump's team and russia in whatever form all these things have created a climate in washington which is very very hostile to any idea of a trump putin meeting. the other thing is that of course the europeans have all sorts of worries about a closer relationship between russia and the united states because almost for the first time that i can remember there's very little trust between the main

countries in europe and washington and specifically president trump. british officials knew about the torture of u.s. detainees after the nine eleven attacks or u.k. government report has revealed controversy remains over what washington calls in harvest interrogation techniques probably picks up the story densely it's a very big truth of information it was eight years in the making and it's all about british spies and their involvement in torture and rendition all rather the extent of british involvement in torture and rendition in the years after nine eleven during the so-called war on terror the report says that the u.k. tolerated inexcusable treatment of u.s. detainees and that although there was no smoking gun per se the policy of the

u.k. side and is to have been to simply close their eyes to what the u.s. was getting up to with detainees the phrase used in the report is that agencies deliberately overlooked reports of mistreatment and rendition as a matter of institutional policy now to reason may has already responded to this these reports publications she said that u.k. personnel were working in a very new and challenging environment at the time which in some cases they weren't prepared for and it took too long the prime minister said to recognize that guidance and training for staff was inadequate and that detainee related work remains important and at times difficult but that intelligence and armed forces personnel are now much better placed to meet that challenge and also perhaps given the content of the report and how much it relates back to what was taking place in the u.s. at the time or what was being done by u.s.

agencies that have been rumors swirling around this week in some of the papers that the u.s. government tried to censor the publication before it came out that was something that was denied by the. head of the committee that published the report dominic grieve and i've also got to say that the u.s. is yet to comment on the publication that was made by the british government today . well let's discuss this with the keith best former chief executive of the u.k. immigration advisory service keith thanks very much for coming on to the program now we look at the justification that we're getting from the u.k. to raise may she's insisting that u.k. personnel will working within a new and challenging operating environment and that they would not prefer a prepared for that is how valid is that as an excuse. well i don't buy that entirely i'm afraid because torture is torture and people know when it's taking place and we are in the u.k.

wholly opposed to torture you will remember that this sorry saga has been going on for over a decade now i mean we had first of all a judge led inquiry by a retired eminent retired judge for peter gibson that was then pulled when it was realized that they were going to have to have have access to some extremely sensitive security sensitive information and so instead it was pushed into the in the the security committee the intelligence and security committee and many people at the time and i remember the time i was chief executive of an organization called freedom from torture and i remember going to see ken clarke who was the justice set for at the time urging him to reinstate the judge led inquiry but it was put into the intelligence and security committee and many people thought that it was going to be a whitewash well i think we can say with the revelations from that committee now

that is certainly not the case there is no question of a whitewash here and i think the time of course there were serious questions and had to be answered now i think will still have to be answered if we are going to get another proper judicial inquiry into this by those who are in positions of political prominence of the time my understanding from the cases which nearly always were settled out of court by the u.k. government because they were terrified of having all this information laid bare in a court of law the every single act of authorize ations of extraordinary rendition to the us or to the u.s. or forty had to be authorized by the foreign set. through the day individually now that raises certain questions which have never been answered and we need to have our answers to those questions but one thing i think i should stress on this very

clear from the report is that there is no allegation whatsoever that any british personnel security personnel of any kind who were involved in the actual commission of torture sadly what they did was to see torture taking place and to render people to the u.s. or storage fees where they were pretty certain and were cognizant of the fact that the u.s. was going to talk these people now that he's really and that is not something that can be taller or tolerated in a civilized society now well we're going to see if it is tolerated keith best former chief executive of the u.k. immigration a virus service we're going to have the end it there thank you so much for coming on to the program. and we have just had some breaking news in from the city of our policy in the u s state of mary landor shooting has been reported at the

capital because a newspaper a building you can see the live pictures on your screen right now of the area reporters at the outlets say that multiple people have been shot police are apparently responding to the incident and we will of course bring you any updates as soon as they come in. on to other news now a move by the global chemical weapons watchtower granting itself the power to assign blame for the chemical attacks in syria has been criticized by russia the foreign ministry spokeswoman said the n.p.c. to appear had only made the decision under pressure from london. that if british come when you point out that due to political many feel ations that's exactly how they can characterize it and as we learnt direct bribery of a string of delegations and open blackmail by the u.k. and other governments they sold their odious project decision that grants and

characteristic powers to the o.p.c. w two thirds of the nations that voted in this in this vote they voted to change the way in which the u.p.c. w. the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons works whereas before before now it was a network of unbiased and neutral experts and labs what they did was. that incident happened they got samples they measured the samples they tested the samples and they said what substance what substance was used they established you know what exactly happened now with this new change from november the u.p.c. w. will be able to assign blame so in effect it's been turned from a battle of experts into a judiciary into judges who will be able to say these people were guilty all these people were guilty and this is unprecedented in the sense that the only unique agency in the u.n. that was able to apply sanctions or punish people people or sides it was it's

always been the u.n. security council russia wasn't the only one that voted against this china was india's twenty four other countries basically what happened is all these small micro nations they were there was overwhelming pressure applied upon them those blackmail there was bribery for example their tickets were paid for by great britain other countries accommodation was paid for in hotels they it was almost like a tourist strip for them so they got invited along to vote the way the sponsors wanted and then they left. and now there's a lot of confusion because there's even been talk of russia leaving u.b.c. w and that would be. endace huge blue will also set a precedent but it would be a huge blow against the battle against chemical weapons britain which led the charge year which led this change you know champion this change. cited the hearts

and minds across the world that we joined together in battle against chemical weapons but russia says this this wasn't the way to go about that and being very careful talking about a potential exit now it is now on the table. and we go back to our breaking news story this just coming in from the city of annapolis in the u.s. state of maryland a shooting has been reported at the capitol because that newspaper building report is up but let's say that multiple people have been shot and according to the baltimore sun they've reported that at least four people have been killed but we still have to verify what's being said police are responding to the incident and we will bring you any updates as soon as they come in. now moved by the global chemical weapons watchdog granting itself the power to assign blame for chemical attacks in syria has been criticized by russia the foreign ministry spokeswoman said the o.p.c.
