well you know. what. the. president. video emerges of him talking to a group of migrants some of whom claim they have been documented in the three. sweden's ruling social democrat suffered their worst election result in a century while the insurgence sweden democrats make major gains with their immigration. also coming up this hour despite iraq declaring yourself free from islamic state terrorists almost a year ago we reported how the terror group remains. the country.
2:01 pm
straight away and my son in hospital lying on the ground before i knew that the matter is told us. in iraq my brother was killed after he was kidnapped at a fake checkpoint cherished. twenty four hour news live from moscow every hour of the day this is our team to national my names you know neil good of your company. french president. has come in for a burger round of criticism online to merge of him talking to a group of migrants here exchange.
2:02 pm
pretty embarrassing that video there for president mcewan as he saw in the video a man claims that he's from algeria and he's been on holiday in france for can you believe it. is that mr mack on a little bit surprised when he heard that but just so the system regulated documented so you can be in france probably in the man says yes i'm going to but the reaction on twitter has been absolutely outrage that that was the president's only reaction to a man who's just essentially told him that he's been undocumented in this country for years others went as far as saying perhaps president had even disrespected france's own rules take a look at some of the reaction on twitter attention this is not a parody that is the president of our republic hey mr mccraw thanks
2:03 pm
a lot mr micron we are undocumented we love you so much when the most powerful man in france looks the other way when there is an obvious breach of law he makes fools of the whole country. sure. i do specifically because this problem. will right at the very end of the video it does seem as if the man is trying to attract some of his statement but doesn't wait very long and he hastily moved along very aware i'm sure that the cameras were on him and that encounter was being filmed and surely going to be disseminated like it was across social media and this of course immigration is a sore subject here in france recently the french government has introduced its no new migration bill where it's trying to make it more difficult for people to apply for asylum migration status here in france and also trying to make it much more efficient to deport undocumented illegal migrants like that man suggested he was at
2:04 pm
the very beginning of the video so what. we didn't want is to come face to face for somebody who's actually saying i'm an illegal migrant and i've been in your country for eight years eighteen months of that of course was under the tenure of mr macklin himself just hours before that immigration was something that mark owen had been talking about with the german chancellor angela merkel because it is expected to be one of the big battlegrounds ahead of next year's parliament now while mrs merkel has often been happy to pose for photos and videos of migrant in this open the arms of germany to many migrants in the past mr mack on is probably not feeling exactly the same in heartwarming about that encounter because as i said it is a big battleground ahead of next year's parliamentary elections and for many might be feeling that this video could play into the hands of his opponents more than he
2:05 pm
would actually like. plenty of talk ahead this week in stockholm where their right wing sweden democrat has won its largest ever share of a general election over seventeen percent in a poll done. when needed by concerns over immigration the party's leader declared his movement the true victors. your reappearance of only i know who has won this election is the sweden democrats that's how it is we are strengthening our pivotal position and increasing our seats in the swedish parliament we see that we are going to get incredible influence in the future and no one can take that away from us so to mcnorton the sweden democrats. and loom over anything that will help society to be able to only increase division and hate in any case said was a disappointing night for the prime minister's ruling social democrats claiming twenty eight percent of the vote that's their lowest result in
2:06 pm
a century the swedish moderates were second were close to twenty percent with no clear winner the result likely means lengthy negotiations and forming a governing coalition maria foote national reported for us from sweden in the run up to the election and told us earlier about the atmosphere across the country. the mood was not easy i can even say it was quite depressive this what i felt after a tour in sweden for almost fourteen days people were telling me things are not like they used to be health care or justice system police even transportation i remember we had a rendezvous with one politician in ma in other southern sweden and he was late for a full two minutes after his train was delayed and when he finally iraq he was like oh even trains don't run on time in this country anymore so of course it was a joke but with some big to truth that people were not quite happy with the happening in sweden but security was the biggest concern of course with cars burned
2:07 pm
throughout the country with gang shootings on the rise now we're driving to the southern part of stockholm and swedish capital to one of the areas called by police as vulnerable area or especially vulnerable area or reask area how the prefer to read through the few people who live. there that we would either be violent with a court order to. move to the local do you know who drove over mafia give me money the woman who. was the gun you may know. but again bad things mostly happened in these vulnerable areas but this feeling of insecurity spread far beyond these omes and that's really what the sweden democrats were trying to capitalize on making trying to make that the reg link between immigration and crime oh yeah they've talked a lot about violent crime during they are comparing and they blamed immigrants for
2:08 pm
all the problems in the country the years it was considered for a taller in sweden as i'm over told to talk bad about immigration this is why sweden democrats often and openly. were accused of been not see or carry nazi ideas for this position. but i can say that there were many. more extreme groups much more extreme groups in sweden running for the city elections for example nordic resistance movement they present themselves actually like people are soldiers and they were hoping to get some votes during this campaign is well. i. don't know if there was definitely a very very good person or the german people definitely. the free germany.
2:09 pm
they are against this we're against the now sushma racism and so beleaguered to say that it looks like i mean that must be cause for the police to intervene and as you say in such a renowned liberal country like sweden what were people saying to you about well whether we're right in sweden democrats were wrong or right many people believed that immigrants are indeed to blame and that's what i felt while traveling across sweden this and t. immigration no particular entity no new repeat immigration sense this what we filmed in house and worked sweden is not swedish anymore i mean this is totally changed here used to be a small little shop where you could buy hot dogs now it's sort of you never find any swedish dogs anymore but in a sense. this. is just here. all the signs are you know how big is your problem your
2:10 pm
org is oh no no no no no let me wrong with you because we do expect actually to use you know i'm very sad that sweden is not a swedish country anymore it makes me want to cry i don't read. in my eyes my i.q. if you like really employed so as you can see not an easy tongue for sweden and as many people told me in the country it's not easy to make a right choice because i really like too much of everything and not clear who can actually fix all this my colleague colin briere earlier talked to can't he's from the sweden democrats party here. grew more then we did so in. success. and also when it comes to the kingmaker position is. strength and what about those perceptions that your party's just trying to put an acceptable
2:11 pm
face on some of the more extreme elements in swedish political society lumping it with far right groups like alternative sweden or nordic resistance well that's left wing media trying to demonize parties like ours where we can say what we do know is my point of view it's not responsible for the chaos that sweden is in with immigration with all the problems we have others have employees who've been doing this for thirty maybe forty years and in every election they come up with the same so-called solutions to problems they themselves made in the same thing all over again what has never been tried in sweden is a less immigration that's the one thing that's never been tried. the one thing we want to see is sweden zero immigration and to get people to move back to their home countries we can save our own. moving to iraq now where a spree of islamic state kidnappings and attacks have targeted security forces. the
2:12 pm
spite losing territory the militants are still active in many parts of the country and are now turning to guerrilla warfare we heard from the relatives of some who've lost their lives in the ongoing violence. in. the last book it's feisal controlled. the coalition to defeat isis has liberated very close to one hundred percent of the territory just recently healthy. by these killers in iraq we have just absolutely decimated i suspect just absolutely obliterated isis in iraq.
2:13 pm
the other one how many i don't know how one does a checkpoint out of the six or seven militants or did they manage to get out of the car with the terrorists i didn't ask why i dumped cards or anything they opened fire on them straight away that i and my son and husband her lying on the ground before i knew it the murderous told us they were from the islamic state in iraq. that's the shot that got up my brother was killed after he was kidnapped at a fake checkpoint run by i saw terrorists have it. but.
2:14 pm
missed that aside but the thought of this failed to warn us that the road was their interests and that there was a nice new checkpoint that was a complete can away and capitally up to the terrorists killed by some hospital but it took the security forces a few hours to get to the site and even after they did that they didn't venture close to the car as they feared it was booby trapped sell more idea i saw a terrorist demanded the release of some sunni women held in iraqi custody in exchange for my brother and others but the authorities abdicated responsibility for the negotiations and i found myself having to do the talks on my own current iraqi leaders are failures they keep making statements and giving conferences but they are not doing. anything on the ground. or the one. i saw has lost everything and they no longer have the ability to control territories so what they're doing now is an attempt to send messages to the
2:15 pm
media trying to show them they still exist by conducting terrorist attacks against innocent civilians those attempts are in fact pathetic and a sign of desperation like. war. meanwhile in syria government troops are massing for what's hoped to be a final right of islamic state terrorists and militants in a dalit province but as the battle looms tension is growing between moscow and washington over the fate of the country hears double quarter. the civil war in syria could be entering its final chapter but several obstacles remain before any victory over the terrorists could be declared. in the tunne where americans have a military base new u.s. exercises have been launched unannounced. forces will demonstrate the capability to
2:16 pm
deploy rapidly a cell to target with integrated and ground forces and conduct a rapid ex filtration anywhere in the operation inherent resolve combined joint operations area that's after russia informed the us of its pursuit of terrorists into a so-called de confliction zone the russians informed the us on september the first the de confliction line that they intended to the conflicts to proceed terrorists the russians indicated by written in september the six that they would make precision strikes and conflicts against terrorists no comment about the note from russia so far the us though assured russia there's no intent for conflict with the pro syrian government forces but they will retaliate to any hostile actions so what's the purpose of these military maneuvers exercises like this both defeat isis capabilities and ensure that we are ready to respond to any threat to our forces
2:17 pm
and the widening war on terror has long been washington's go to justification for sticking it out in syria even boosting numbers on the ground with the end of the campaign in sight going to stay for several reasons stabilization and assistance in the vital north and northeast. protection of our allies to deny those responsible for using chemical weapons in syria and to pursue a diplomatic resolution to be a part of what we are widening now for across the world to achieve a political settlement to set the conditions for the united nations backed geneva process to succeed america does not seek an indefinite presence in syria under no circumstance. and the last remaining terrorist stronghold fighting between the world and extremist groups has been put on hold the consequences of
2:18 pm
a major offensive operation in the globe will almost certainly be the suffering of a large number of innocent civilians washington says it's got its own way to deal with terrorism in syria they say they will be better and more focused but details haven't been very forthcoming at any rate moscow is out of the picture when it comes to syria and that's despite russia recently meeting with other players to the conflict turkey and iran they came up with a joint statement that put forward a political solution to the conflict leaders from those countries agreed that the only path forward is for unconditional terrorists surrender turkey though is against any operation adlib calling for a cease fire and. if we declare a cease fire this will be a victory for the summit and the most important step in the process will be peace of mind to civilians russian president vladimir putin said cease fire are not terrorists there are unpredictable and turkey well they reportedly already advanced
2:19 pm
towards adlib you know lots to discuss in this one let's try and answer some of those questions with dr buss some. professor of political science at the muskets university you are very welcome what does the pentagon mean do you think when it sees there is a better way of doing country or terrorist. some operations in a live. little cult you have a little bit of problems connecting there with dr abdullah count here me at the moment so we will try and get back to the professor at a little bit later in the program a lot of different issues to try and get our teeth into live in damascus let's just double check dr i don't i can you hear me. no we can't ok let's move on the. america's top security adviser has declared the
2:20 pm
international criminal court right dangerous john bolton called the body ineffective illegitimate in the eyes of washington. the united states will use any means necessary to protect our citizens and those of our allies from unjust prosecution by this illegitimate court we will not cooperate with the i.c.c. we will provide no assistance to the i.c.c. and lee certainly will not join the i.c.c. . correspondence americano is standing by we will be joining her in just a few moments a get her thoughts on the speech a lot of ramifications possibly around the international criminal court on what washington say's all not i smear it can you hear me right now. yes. a r r t correspondent in washington yeah we just don't have a connection
2:21 pm
a little bit of connection with a few lives there at the moment and whenever she can hear me we will go back to syria because there is an interesting development there by the un national us national security advisor john bolton ok for the moment let's go to the u.k. where britain's conservative party is facing a serious hit after former foreign minister boris johnson compared the current breaks it to the suicide bed. we have opened to perpetual political blackmail we have wrapped a suicide vest around the british constitution and handed that detonated to michelle obama. the name checkers plan is viewed by many euro skeptics as being too mild saying it keeps the u.k. dependent on the e.u. boris johnson who campaigned for a hard break that has branded it pathetic reports on why the plan is riling leave
2:22 pm
voters within the conservative party. the issue of bragg's it in the conservative party has been a bit of a simmering fire and over the weekend it seems that boris johnson took a can of petrol and poured or oil all over it so it's now been set firmly ablaze boris johnson has been speaking his mind quite freely after resigning as foreign secretary over the terms of the check is deal that's the prime minister's plan for how the u.k. should leave here it that was unveiled at their russia do this it must be preparing for a new world war or to invade nato or to invade nato in the new world war the usual fear mongering which is notably absent when others carry out military exercises and the spite need to observers being invited to attend maneuvers are not directed against of the countries not consistent with our military doctrine which is defensive hysterics aside this promises to be
2:23 pm
a spectacle to remember and will be there in russia's far east with the latest and greatest from vos talk two thousand and eighteen. the migrant rallies have been held in germany after a twenty two year old man died shortly after a reported street fighting with migrants well this comes hard on the heels of last week's arrest in the city of chin that the division even seems to have reached the top level of the country's security services with the domestic intelligence head coming on fire for his latest comments on mob violence in chemnitz or europe correspondent peter oliver has more. plenty of questions heading the way. in the head of germany's internal intelligence service the peer file that's roughly the equivalent of m i five in the united kingdom or the f.b.i. in the united states now he made claims in an interview last week with
2:24 pm
a german newspaper the videos it was supposed to show members of the. anti migrant demonstration groups are hunting down and attacking people in the city of chemists who looked foreign or they thought were migrants he said videos could well have been faked and actually directly accused the media of trying to manipulate public opinion by putting those videos out oversea strong claims made against the press already there they become even stronger when you look that chancellor angela merkel specifically cited these videos in her well admonishment of the anti migrant demonstrators of the far right demonstrators in the city of candidates and elsewhere across germany there's been a lot of calls for mr marson to produce some proof to back up his claims in fact members of the left party the social democrats and the greens here in germany call for a palm tree inquiry into the comments of mr marson and actually gone some of gone
2:25 pm
so far as to say that he should be stripped of his position and risking the government that mr mustn't be removed from office since he's using his agency says seventy to present all those who've been reporting about the horrible events in chemists and spreading this information and indeed he's clearly supporting the propaganda of the n.t. and events in general. mr martin's task is to expose the enemies of the constitution and his latest comments will result in the exact opposite if he fails to immediately provide proof for his clients that's why we have the s.p.d. have decided to call a parliamentary hearing next week so that mr marston has the opportunity to back up his assertions german interior minister. mr marson as direct boss says he still has faith in him as head of the bear however he must produce some proof to back up those claims that he made and it's certainly said to be a busy week it would seem for masson he's also facing accusations that he handed
2:26 pm
off intelligence assessments into alternative. chimney the f.d.a. . had secret meetings with them and it's held some kind of bias towards them well the have to deny that they were handed any documents or any secret meetings took place but there is still a lot of people looking to mr moss and asking questions about this incident as well as the interview he gave to build and those people want answers immediately ok you can always get right up to the moment developments on our twitter page updates quite literally by the minute this is our international. u.s. president donald trump is on
