always in the why. question. ill informed of wild speculation burson security minister dismisses media reports that police have identified the perpetrators of this group poisoning on top. of the headlines a us court refuses to russian citizen. she was charged with being with conspiracy to defraud the united states and claimed she offered sex in a bid to forge influential connections with americans. i. was on the huge pressure off his aide is caught between a protester to the ground. but the show. and iraq just films take off on

a viral music it to raise awareness over the situation in his country we speak the artist himself. he was little invasion of iraq is a major contributing factor to the. one person who would have managed to achieve that school and i believe in releasing. a welcome swati international live from moscow. today thanks for joining us this hour. the u.k. security minister has media reports that police have identified those behind the poisoning of the script as ill informed wild speculation on thursday the press association news agency sizing their source close to the probe claim the perpetrators have been found and it said the media abuzz. police investigating

this particular incident back in march believe that they do have the identity of two suspects press association says police believe they have identified those who carried out the novel chocolate stark in salzburg police in britain are reported to have identified several people they believe were behind the nerve agent attack on the former russian spy sergei scruple and his daughter yulia the media frenzy was sparked by just one tweet from a news agency cited a source claiming that u.k. police have identified the suspects behind the screwball poisoning. looks into the story a source with knowledge of the probe told press association investigators believe they have identified the suspected perpetrators behind the novacek attack on the screen. well this is all allegedly come from a source close to the police investigation into the original attack against the script powells back in march and this source has spoken to the press association they're the ones reporting it and they've said that investigators are apparently

closing in on the suspected perpetrators of the attack and the police have allegedly been looking at c.c.t.v. footage and they've been examining it and also looking at records of people who had ended and left the country around the time of the attack against the script files in march because and the bombshell really in all these reports is that these suspects are allegedly russian it is important to note that these are unconfirmed reports as yet so far it's just come from this one article by the press association but it's done the rounds and it's pretty big headline news here in the u.k. even though we haven't had any updates from the police or the oath or a tease in regards to the investigation that hasn't stopped the press speculation though just to give you an example the sun newspaper has elaborated on the story saying that scotland yard apparently believes that it was a two man hit team that carried out the attack on the script files and that they

did it on the orders of the kremlin and furthermore that the pair are thought to have left the u.k. for russia the morning after the attack and to quote the newspaper thought to be under the protection of president vladimir putin so that's the source of reports that are in the press here right now. has consistently denied any claims of wrongdoing even though the british government pointed the finger squarely at the kremlin in the days after the attack saying that it's highly unlikely that russia or did the poisoning and now following these new unconfirmed reports the russian ambassador to the u.k. alexander yack event. oh has already responded take a lesson. know we see only leaks to british media and official statements from the interior ministry or scotland yard on the absent nobody in this

world has information concerning what exactly happened in the u.k. . and in a way there you can see the russian diplomat really upping the ante saying well go on then give us these names if you're going to make these allegations that we want to see evidence of it and we've just got a line from the russian foreign ministry as well they've said that if the u.k. keeps these alleged russian suspects classified if this case becomes secret well then moscow will regard it as a cover up of the perpetrators so there's clearly a sense of increasing frustration here i would say from the russian side that the british media can sort of go on making these allegations almost definitely without a shred of evidence from the or thorazine is that without any official statements from the police investigation to back it up. the u.s.

court has refused bail to russian citizen of the she pleaded not guilty to charges of conspiracy to act as a kremlin agent earlier prosecutors released court papers relating to her case the documents claim that bhutto was in contact with russian intelligence officials and that she offered sex in exchange for a job at a u.s. special interests organization. the twenty nine year old has appeared in federal court and entered a plea of not guilty contesting the charges against her and she's been denied bail so she will remain in federal custody pending trial documents presented by the federal prosecutors have a lot of really unclear words in them for example it says appears to have ties to russian intelligence services they believe they said that was in contact with officials believed to be russian intelligence operatives furthermore they stated that they have a handwritten note that says how to respond to f.s.b.

employment offers so this is what they have a lot of very unclear statements in the document and furthermore they went on to allege that she has been covertly offering people sex for favors and basically the charge is that she has been operating in pro-gun lobby groups and with the republican party and has been doing so on behalf of the russian government without registering herself as a foreign agent now a lot of the media reports are using words like spy and espionage but none of those charges have been filed she is not being accused of doing any military related work no classified information is involved in the case it's simply alleged misuse lobbying and behaving as a lobbyist without registering as a lobbyist on behalf of the russian government the spokesperson for the russian ministry has come forward and said they are alarmed by the case and they are calling the charges groundless and politically motivated we have heard they are saying essentially the f.b.i. instead of dealing with its basic duties to combat crime is carrying out

a plane political order for lawyers argued that she has been cooperating with federal officials in the united states for the last few months that she is not a flight risk but the judge didn't hear it and the judge said that she was denied any bail so she remains in federal custody awaiting trial on these charges of being an unregistered foreign agent lobbyist. a french president a model microbus found himself in the pressure of his aide was cool beating up a student protest the incident took place at an anti government run in may this year. well a shocking video that shocked many people in france what you see on that video is alexander first of all he is grabbing

a woman and charging her down the street he passes the camera that still mean him and then a little bit later we see him once again this time he is next to a male protester and what is clearly seen here is him wrapping up male protesters now hitting him on the head and then he appears to be stomping him on the stomach as he falls to the ground why was he that well he danced his forces his work release a palace he could see the c.r.s. the riot police during the may day protests to see how operations carried out in regards to see security now he wasn't on a working day he was on a day off and he was only there to. take part in the police action against the protesters and that itself has sparked a huge backlash here in france i've watched the video and i'm shocked just like the whole world the media poses a number of questions to. we need

a commission inquiry what is a private doing among law enforcement officers this question must be posed to a man who. can't believe this guy is still in the service of the president of the republic so michael tolerates that the film scene is very violent. colleague usurps police insignia and hits a man to the ground you can't want to examine pluri republic and let people think that they can be double standards one justice for french citizens and one for presidential workers. if we accept that anyone can pretend to be a police officer we no longer live under state rule of law well who is alexander but what we know about him is that he has been politically active since his twenties now he was a security aide to some of france's previous ministers but he joined the mark on presidential campaign back in two thousand and sixteen he is an aide to marco chief

of staff and he is normally the person in charge of security arrangements he's often seen with the president might call just a few meters away. so the two together this is a man who really has the president right next to him almost all the time that he's on official duties now this is the official statement that these a palace has made this morning in regards to the situation he has been suspended for fifteen days without pay he has been relieved of his functions regarding the organization of security for the president's movements this sanction is punishment for unacceptable behavior and constitutes a final warning it is the most serious punishment ever administered to working at the me well an investigation has been opened by the public prosecutor here in paris they are looking at a number of aspects which could lead to formal charges of violence by a public official illegal use of police in secret because he was wearing

a police insignia at one point during that may day protests and also pretending to be a police officer now that charge alone if it's made him if he's found guilty carries a sentence of up to a year in jail and a fifteen thousand euro fine. i mean while the french president seems to be dodging the response on the growing scandal he brushed off any damage done by the it was a discussion. of france. but you know what you don't want to go for me. if i'm not going at the end of it but if you can get rid of i don't know not if you want to get at it you need to have it. as a viral video this is america has been spot off by off for more of a rocky descent we spoke to the man behind the video this is a rock. this is some. guy just like this is our way. out of school we're not. a body shop we're not played by people we're not wholesome

barrels and barrels for girls and girls leave work in the demolished delivered the mission accomplished. there's a fuel source issue between america and iraq given the u.s. led invasion of iraq is a major contributing factor to where we are to the i think it was just sort of the . drop for this trip to be done on the back of a truck about america when if you manage it it's a bit. through a lot it's agree to do the movie. something you and i feel like we can be pretty good. in the trade itself and just raising awareness and i think that's important. people come up to me and and then using awareness and getting you know getting them were familiar with the subject that they were. because they were too young at the time when the when the invasion happens of this trick in just one person in a positive manner and sort of get

a dialogue and conversation going then sort of it's achieved at school and. then releasing it. the russian defense ministry has unveiled video of its new generation of weapons in action some of the world's most powerful some help in the russia but at train what i guess if takes a closer look. when putin announced this new arsenal it came out of nowhere seemed like side five overkill to some but you know we now have videos of each. kindle or dagger and russian is a hypersonic missile and it's fost really fast flies at three kilometers a second and then anything tries to shoot it down it dodges to maneuvering flying in an unpredictable trajectory world first by the way the u.s.

plans to test its own analog next year. this is the overkill bought a new nuclear i.c.b.m. that carries get this twenty nuclear warheads the real a slow is its range which is practically unlimited where past nuclear missiles had to use the shortest flight path and fly through ed defenses this thing can literally fly to the south pole and back up to hit that stargate from behind. if for whatever reason you don't feel like flying through and. there's adam god and it's designed to literally ram its way through enemy anti missile defenses with a speed first it's lifted into space then its engines turn on and it enters the atmosphere at knock twenty that's roughly seven kilometers

a second. poseidon the greek god of the she may be gone but he's got a no less terrifying successor a nuclear powered paedo that travels to deep and so fast it's in theory undefeatable. brevets nick a new nuclear powered nuclear capable cruise missile it's literally powered by a nuclear reactor on board inside the misselling meaning it's got indefinite range so long as the reactor has fuel it can stay airborne fluids around and around until the opportunity to strike. combat lasers have always been a cool science fiction gimmick but they never really got doing the science and technical requirements were too great until now it seems it is stripped named after

a russian worry among the laser weapons system designed to deliver incredible amounts of energy in a small area so shoot down all melt down and incoming drone or jet to shelve for example other than that not much known yet. now one might ask isn't all that is just begging for an arms race is russia each in for a fight no says putin it's all about balance balance means peace the four things were even russia and the u.s. had nuclear parity mutually assured destruction then after the u.s.s.r. collapsed nato began to expand began to field new weapons that could destroy russian nukes what putin unveiled is russia's

a return to military equality status quo a return to balance critics want to use very nation state law turns the country's arabs into second class citizens we'll tell you why just after the short break. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy to confront a shouldn't let it be an arms race is often spearing dramatic development the only move really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. with nor make this manufactured sentenced to public wealth. when the ruling classes project themselves. with the famous

merry go round be the one percent. nor middle of the room six. million. welcome back to the program israeli parliament has passed a contentious bill that defines the country as the nation state of the jewish people critics say the same diminishes the status of the country's arab residents fall asleep picks up the story. but it effectively does is it enshrines in the israel basic law the concept that israel is the historic homeland of the jewish

people and they have exclusive right to national self-determination now supporters say that it equates jewish values with democratic values it puts them on an equal footing but critics and there are many say that it effectively discriminates against the country's arab population who make up some twenty percent and other minorities now you have for example now in law the fact that hebrew is the official language of the country arabic is given the status of special status and has effectively been downgraded there were hours of debate in the israeli knesset the israeli parliament prior to this contentious nation state being passed into law a particularly tension part of the ball is the whole idea of israeli or jewish settlements now there was a lot of debate about this in the past it was changed because the charge was put forward that it promotes stick with patients but even with the change critics complain because now for example they say it promotes jewish only settlements it

caused so much anger in the parliament that arab members of parliament actually ripped the bill to shreds. here this is an evil law black flag hovers over it this is the law harbors of blacks wow. now the israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu says that this is a pivotal moment in the history of zionism and israel. this is a historic moment in the history of zionism and the history of the state of israel israel is the national state of the jewish people and national state respects the rights of individuals the rights of all citizens and in the middle east only israel respects these rights so today we have written the law in stone now the ball was first proposed back in two thousand and eleven and over the years controversial as it is it has seen a number of rewrites and parallel proposals the countries. my minister netanyahu has always supported it and for years he has evolved and eventually it will be

pasta intell and that's what's happening now with a lot of reaction. from the jerusalem center for public affairs told us that the law is not discriminatory the shift in status merely allows israel to enshrine in law that hebrew is the official language of the state arabic is a language with special status meaning any kind of institution organization association it will continue to have arabic as a special language and the islam as a culture the muslim religion as a religion as well as the arab national status of israel's arab minority will be preserved one hundred percent the only difference here is that the government and the knesset wanted to underscore the importance of having a jewish emblem as the official emblem a jewish the jewish language of thirty seven hundred years which is hebrew as the

official language jewish holidays is the official holidays just like scores of other countries around the world it is absolutely not discriminatory whatsoever. even more white farmers in south africa are considering emigrating us cases of violence against them roy's back at home some see russia was a suitable place to resettle and make a fresh start. our descendants of dutch speaking saddle errors at the eastern cape frontier in south africa and much of the one nine hundred century the people moved in the nineteenth century they tried to act in the way they were surveyed their joy to negotiate negotiate officially they tried to avoid conflict the land in this area for example was never taken of the taken by whites from the legs of violence or

in an unjust leather. the expropriation of land or viewpoint by white settlers of the sixteenth century without compensation is in visitors one of the measures that we will use to exhilarate redistribution of land to black south africa. i recently visited russia with my family to explore possibilities of recycling in the area i know that the growth in agricultural production is immense in russia so i think it's the right time to buy in to a good cause or russia and i think there is a lot of to ensure. the reason outcomes considering immigration is honestly because i see

a dark cloud. over a future that the reality is that we do fear for logs and the reality is that a white farmer is attacked the every day and for that of. my grandfather. was murdered on this form the government has said they're responsible for creating the. of and they're going there's a towards what. we already have a plan for a settlement of roughly five hundred families with their own cattle nearest neighbor. as a gathering of an organization defending the interests of farmers in the country the south african president cyril ramaphosa reassured the community they shouldn't view the so-called land reform as a threat or as a reason to leave the country that's it for myself or the team here at our teachers
