morning from moscow this sunday september the ninth review of the week's biggest stories as covered right here first off winding back to wednesday british authorities released photos of two men they claim are responsible for the poisoning of russian double agents against his daughter in march the suspects are said to be russian intelligence officers and were acting on direct orders from moscow.
4:02 am
many british media outlets were quick to seize on the claims accepting the authorities version with headlines branding the two men as putin smiling assassins moscow says there are major inconsistences in britain's version of events as my guest you have explained. we're sure but we are sure it's safe now but don't touch anything we're sure they're russian but we don't know who they are contradictions everywhere based on a body of intelligence the government has concluded that the two individuals named by the police and c.p.s. are officers from the russian military intelligence service. also known as the g.r.u. just check out so you can. go and you know just whether they are actually serving officers in russian intelligence agencies we have significant lines of inquiry about who don't meet when we want people to come forward and give us the evidence
4:03 am
you'd think they would have to know who these two suspects are before accusing them of being russian military intelligence agents but no instead they're asking the public for help to identify these two men who do raise it may already seems to know this was not a row operation it was almost certainly also approved outside the g.r.u. a senior level of the russian state would be real easy if they just called up the russians and ask them with passport numbers and everything but they aren't on speaking i can confirm that we have had no cooperation from the russian government on the other hand how do you complain that someone isn't being helpful when you refuse to pick up the phone you know it wouldn't be. the british and voice said that the u.k. site will not present any materials london also refused to present any other
4:04 am
information about the case passport numbers patronymics data from the reasonably cation and so on we understand that they will be transmitted by interpol so here we are the british refusing to so. much as acknowledge the russians and moscow in refusing to budge until the brits respond to certain questions look the russians have asked for fingerprints harmless right of the two suspects the british say they'll hand over nothing and then complain that the russians are being held for contradictions by the meticulous and painstaking searches and although unlikely it is impossible to guarantee that there are no other materials present in the source of all the experts advisedly evidence to date does not suggest any long term health risk from short term one month contract with low levels of this agent so which is it might be a tad confusing for locals in salisbury everything's fine and save but it isn't so
4:05 am
we don't pick anything up and keep an eye out is that over or not and then of course there's the huge gaps in the investigation we don't yet know where the suspects disposed of the ritual they used to attack the scruples front door or where do all in charlie got the bottle the poison the. or is it if it is the same has been used and. they don't seem to know what happened to the container for months and months and now asking the public for help to identify these suspects who they've modeling southern sweden has been saying to many volunteer tax earlier this summer there was a drive by shooting here across the cybercafe you can still see the marks from the bullets three people have been killed and three others seriously injured interesting that police station is just walk away from here.
4:06 am
people who were the victims were targeted because of who they are we know that they are heavily involved in criminal activities this is. usually something to do with the narcotics and different types of heavy crime the trade continues and police conduct many details between such incidents happen in vulnerable areas like this the question on everyone's mind seems are they from sweden. so you dno. that people tend to blame although i know it to rain or well. it's hard to say that it's a lot of people who are second or third generation immigrants in our statistics that we don't take in their ethnicity as well you can say that at least ninety percent of the people who are suspects are victims of these types of crimes are

4:08 am
a socio economic problem you can present that there is a youth problem i mean your truth in that way of choosing. also there is a political manifesto and that's a way of marginalizing stereotype by saying you know it's all way of saying the people that are not from europe are more primitive so i mean all these come into the politics professor is referring to the sweden democrats the rightwing party tips for its best result in these years it's immigrants who burn cars who rapes murders who cause huge amount of money that affects all other areas in the swedish society that's the real problem. stina holmberg works at the national crime prevention council whose job is to make sure crime policy is know which based politicians and media use their data to show immigrants are to blame but stina
4:09 am
warns they are often taken out of context most of overrepresentation by immigrants disappears if you. add the fact that they are socially deprived we have reports in from one thousand and six two thousand and five that established that people. for middle east africa grossly over epicenter i want to comes to violent crimes for instance yes those gang shootings it's a lot of second generation young men but if you see. fair few and assault and these kinds of crimes we don't see an increase just recently an investigative program on national switch television also confirmed immigrants and rapes for instance it might be easier to report worked. a perpetrator who is an immigrant or in other way is socially deprived to you can try this all this
4:10 am
integration stuff has been that i've been trying for thirty forty years and it's totally useless only real. thing to solve the problem is to make the move or it has become a strong political issue and there is a new political arena sweden with the right wing parties we've been attacked by left wingers and immigrants in this election campaign i mean i seen some reports on . if there's going to be increased turbulence after we win on my september that's on them not us. this weekend democrats are closing in fast on the ruling social democrats whether they are right or wrong the anti immigrant party is convincing people that the security situation is critical. to blame and they had the answer on sunday voters may just give them

a chance to show it proof notional r.-t. to the. conflict in syria has been in the spotlight this week with the final battle of adlib looming large in the northwestern provinces thought to be the last terrorist stronghold in the war weary country the u.s. defense department estimates that up to thirty thousand a currently in the area. despite that donald trump's warn the syrian leader and his allies against launching an attack on the area and what he calls a potential human tragedy the fate of it was also on the agenda of the u.n. security council on friday. piece in its lead. when russia and the assad regime say they want to counterterrorism they actually mean they want to bomb schools hospitals and homes lives. we are firmly under the impression that the western part is a stick in his studio ground and in any case or attempting to prevent the food of
4:12 am
the last major terrorist stronghold in syria the assad regime and its enablers russia and iran have a playbook for this every man woman and child becomes a target this eerie an army has incurred more most casualties and it's an effort to make sure that as few civilians as as possible are killed it is the terrorists who make it their policy to go out and deliberately kill civilians history does not show that the syrian army has caused widespread civilian deaths unlike the situation in mosul and rocca where the western forces simply did carpet bombing in a killed everyone the security council session also devoted time to discussing chemical weapons moscow's repeatedly said the terrorists in libya planning to use the arms to frame the acid regime of already brought eight barrels of chlorine to
4:13 am
the province russia also believes that members of the controversial rescue group the white helmets will be filming the incident when it staged united nations acknowledge that the terrorists did have chlorine. the government owned one. and. which is an organization. that figured all. being deep kept ability to produce weaponized chlorine despite russia's repeated claims the united states un envoy appeared to have her own idea about any future chemical attacks in syria. if there are chemical weapons that are used we know exactly who's going to use them . and yes rush is making accusations about opponents white helmets everything else. assad is doing the same.
4:14 am
that is the exact formula they always follow before a chemical weapons attack that assad does on its own. while the possibility of an escalation it was also the focus of talks on friday between the leaders of russia turkey and iran in a joint statement they said that the conflict could only be resolved through a negotiated political process the leaders say that the only path forward is for the terrorists to put down their weapons however there was still an issue that they couldn't find common ground on. and. if we declare a cease fire this will be
4:15 am
a victory for the summit and the most important step in the process will give peace of mind to civilians. prison is rights but we cannot speak for the terrorists and the opposition. security analysts we spoke to says the terrorists pose a major threat to civilians. the major threat against civilians is a terrorist threat that the major threat against civilians comes from the about the . groups that are terrorist groups and i think it's absolutely ridiculous why would the syrian regime and the russians use any chemical weapons or to allow the use of any chemical weapons for the last stronghold of these terrorist organizations i mean they all that is the route that the syrian army and the russian army were able to control most of the syrian territories donald trump's on the hunt for a white house mole supposedly behind an explosive opinion piece in the new times

themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. welcome back donald trump wants the u.s. justice department to identify the author of a bombshell new york times opinion piece the article was written anonymously allegedly by a senior white house official claiming as part of the resistance inside the administration. i worked for the president but like minded colleagues and i have vowed to thwart parts of his agenda and his worst inclinations on russia for instance the president was reluctant to expel so many of mr putin's spies as punishment for the poisoning of a former russian spy in britain but his national security team knew better such
4:18 am
actions had to be taken to hold moscow accountable this isn't the work of the so-called deep state it's the work of the steady state it may be cold comfort in this chaotic era but americans should know that there are adults in the room donald trump reacted fieri a sleigh lashing out of the newspaper calling the article gutless and while the president now apparently has reason to clear the ranks white house officials are denying any involvement. i come from a place where if you're not a position to execute the commanders and you have a singular option. in this to leave it's not my. feels it was irresponsible for new york times to print this anonymous piece these types of political attacks are beneath the secretary and the department's mission the article exposes deep divides with officials the media and bookmakers now speculating about who really did write it. there is a real search now for who this person is is it you is it that person who is it this
4:19 am
could really be anyone it could be someone who works at the white house some are speculating that it might even be members of president trump's family well some folks think they know who wrote the op ed because of an unusual word in this passage which describes john mccain's legacy as a lodestar but that word might be a clue to maintain international peace must again be our lodestar vigilance and resolve as our love story we have an expression as you know the hail mary this is when you try your best to throw the ball and hope somebody catches it something you're up against it you get the midterms coming they've tried everything they go after books we had the bob woodward book with the stormy daniels we had amorosa we had the michael wolff book we've got this we've got people now claiming and the latest let me add is elizabeth warren the senator who is suggesting that the president is insane and could be removed via the twenty fifth amendment they are throwing everything including the kitchen sink everything at him hoping somewhere
