the rebel forces the. coexistence for terrorists is impossible. which we've been fighting since the terrorist attacks in two thousand and one let's not waste time with to disinform ation distractions and thence. the. russian federation those who trying by all means a great leadership and. new sanctions on the russian for the duration it was an attempt to influence. the course of the russian presidential elections hold it. down we don't call the claim sold to russia meddling in the american election. european union is hitting one of its members with reaction it's after the e.u. parliament. voted in favor of triggering article seven which could see hungary sanctioned

if european leaders all agree to the measures it follows the hungary and prime minister viktor orban been criticized in the block for breaching european values over the migrant crisis. this is certainly one of the strongest weapons in the arsenal for the e.u. to deal with an errant member of its own group what it's more like is really like opening one big box and finding a series of other boxes inside essentially where we are right now is seven point one for this to move any further well it would require either one third of e.u. member states all the e.u. commission to say they want to push ahead with the measures against hungry. men in the european commission's papers migration is the medicine for certain problems for us it's poison me that.

i will expose most in france slowly but surely english is losing important. books and so now we will also impose import tariffs this is basically a stupid process. i have a little black book. with for the past thirty years i have noted when someone has betrayed me.

russians you know envoys clashed with his u.s. counterpart during a security council session on syria russians insisting on the separation of terrorists from the rebels to resolve the crisis that seems to be coming to a head in a live province. coexistence with terrorists is impossible those are all branches of al-qaeda which we've been fighting since the terrorist acts in two thousand and one and from whom we can expect the worst attacks imaginable. we welcome the opportunity to discuss the prospects for a diplomatic solution in syria but let's not waste time with the december mation distractions and outright lives deescalation zones or temporary measures that should be either a local police or a counterterrorism operation russia iran and a star and are down the line are demolishing in lead and asking us to call it peace . it is claimed the president bashar al assad gave the order to use chlorine the

syrian authorities are not going to do that they do not have chemical weapons i ask you again to listen to us it would be an invitation for the western countries to launch an attack on syria which they're threatening if chemical weapons are used. because warning of a possible staged chemical attack by militant fighters in a glib province which is the last terrorist stronghold in the country and says it's designed to frame damascus and provoke large scale foreign military intervention russia's defense ministry claims that the filming indeed of such an assault already begun it says the self-styled rescue group the white helmets are involved of making the video the group has been active on social media to posting what they say is the result of government strikes on lib dug a hole takes a closer look at what we know so far about the fears of potential chemical attack. the russian ministry of defense has been warning for two weeks of a possible false flag operation by militants in using chemical weapons a red line for the u.s. and its allies according to the russian military that possibility became clearer

citing local residents in the town of that show good of a claim camera crews on site have recorded footage of an alleged chemical attack by the syrian government including video of what helmets rescuers treating supposed victims the footage says is to be sent to numerous channels imminently to justify a u.s. led military intervention the us department of defense hasn't yet responded to us directly with comment on these claims although the u.s. has made their position clear they know uncertain terms just so there's no confusion here if the syrian regime uses chemical weapons we will respond very strongly we would have syrian armed forces have no chemical weapons and no plans to use them there is no military necessity for it we urge the international community to support collective efforts and syria's use of chemical weapons and we remain

resolved to act. uses chemical weapons again we would use that sensible people will not use militarily useless means to draw before three powerful countries upon themselves we have all seen what the syrian regime backed by the russian government has done in the past that should not be a surprise to anyone but that would be a concern of ours once again the special interest we have the impression that u.s. threats against damascus aimed at preventing terrorist from being expelled there is not the first time the us no matter which administration has prioritised the task of changing dissident regimes above the common goals of radical terrorism and extremism is. a back and forth of accusations ca sions the us has been clear that any. the use of chemical weapons will be attributed to the asaad government and will result in military action moscow's claim that damascus simply has no logic in drawing the wrath of the us military on themselves has been

dismissed as a distraction tensions in the liberal pro-choice boiling point and anticipation of a government offensive against terrorist and rebel groups it's clear that any incident involving allegations of chemical weapons could be a spark for the outbreak of all out conflict between multiple parties. done or concern skepticism seems to go meantime at the possibility of any potential chemical attack britain's shadow foreign secretary emily thornberry has pressed the government to verify any future attack with the o.p.c. w before taking any action. and that the minister of state will give us two issuances today first that if there are any reports of chemical weapons attack particularly in the areas of it lip controlled by h.t.s. that the government will not take part in any military action in response until the a.p.c. table you have visited sites under the protection of the turkish government independently verifying those reports and attributed responsibility for any chemical weapons used

who are lying in so-called open source intelligence horrified to play prescribed terrorist groups is not an acceptable alternative they don't need to wait for evidence they don't need it we need to wait for an investigation they certainly don't need to wait for o.p.c. w or any other agency to apportion blame they're already blaming the syrian government they're already saying that president assad has authorized the chemical weapons strike so that you know the strike at the lead story hasn't even happened but blame has already been apportioned so you know what what can we say apart from there it looks like very likely there's going to be a big strike and this could lead to obviously this could lead to a conflict with russia and what were three or the final world wars we should be called in there not addressing the syrian arab army they're not even addressing the syrian government or president assad they're addressing the al-qaeda their proxy their armies al-qaeda affiliates in italy and effectively what they're saying is the hotline is open you can call it your own airstrike or you need to do is provide a pretext however lame that pretext maybe give us something we can sell to our publics back home and we'll have the cruise missiles in the air so that's the

message is the message is directly to al qaeda and its affiliates in italy. when a cell flew for seventeen moscow time coming up a growing number of white south african farmers could be brushed as the face losing their lives back home tell you about that more right after this break. seemed wrong. to shape our. outlook. and in. the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart. to look for common ground.

the senate was taken up with obama's. and he was a. he was the last. course that was like oh yeah you know medicare for all be great but we're just. going to ask the something. you're not progressing. i get a number of dead an afghan suicide bombing on choose days risen to sixty eight and at least one hundred sixty five were injured there according to local officials it happened province at a protest demanding the resignation of

a local police commander demonstrators had blocked the highway that links the provincial capital jalalabad in a keyboard across of pakistan when the bomber struck hours before that in jalalabad itself several explosions targeted schools a fourteen year old boy died four others were wounded it's still not clear even today what was behind. so the african president is trying to defuse fears that the country could face sanctions over the expropriation of land from white farmers in july he announced constitutional changes to enable the government to seize land from the white minority community without compensation it immediately sparked a backlash it was described as discriminative by the farmers those are the descendants of dutch settlers who came to south africa in the eighteenth century they currently own about seventy percent of private farmland in the country now south africa's president says taking it back would undo a grave historic or. justice and while the amendment process continues some of the farmers have found an unlikely solution the now it seems in russia here we did

a question of a south african family looking to resettle here. after almost three hours of driving we finally got to this farm and what we see here is just vast amounts of land. where. when you take. your seat you can get a new get out at this extra quality two generations of the do twa family have a arrived in russia to see the farmlands that could be their future and after visiting here in the kaluga region they will have to south and russia they still

feel that south africa is their real home but dire circumstances are forcing their hand and russia is offering them an olive branch we experience the pain in the hurt family members who have suffered ourselves if suffered crime i've made the decision that my children will not have to face that on a daily basis we've had family members who have been murdered we have had family members who have and friends who have had what they had stolen we have suffered crime it's a daily reality that is not what i want for my children the white farmers of south africa have long been complaining of discrimination and they now live in fear that the state could pass laws to seize the lands they've owned since the seventeenth century and return them to the local black population without any compensation

while the bill is still being debated some farmers including the do twat family have their mind sat in a preemptive move. if the government starts saying that we can take land without paying for it because what has happened many centuries ago my children will not pay for the sins of the forefathers in johanna's case russia was not a random pick three years ago he met his wife daria who is from russia he followed his wife to her native siberia and says that he falun laugh with the country straight away i myself believe that there is a future in russia for my family personally give me a siberian winter rather than a summer in the kalahari desert i do not question him our reporting from the kaluga region u.s. senator claims the f.b.i. has been leaking information to the media on purpose the apparent strategies come to light thanks to newly revealed text messages between former f.b.i.

officials senator mark meadows insists it was a coordinated effort he says by f.b.i. justice department officials to release information harmful to donald trump caleb maupin has got the story. in the times of trump the mainstream media just lives for leaks three people familiar with the intelligence ultimately people familiar with the components or says close to mccain former officials knowledgeable about the situation tell c.n.n. but are the leaks all just part of a bigger game now according to republican senator mark meadows he has proof that there was a coordinated effort by f.b.i. agents and members of the d.o.j. to leak information regarding the alleged trump russia collusion this is the letter he sent to the department of justice i will review these new documents raises grave concerns regarding an apparent systemic coach a media leaking by high ranking officials of the f.b.i. india a.j. related to ongoing investigations so what's the documentation well we've got

messages from peter strock former f.b.i. special agent to his mistress lisa page an f.b.i. attorney who just happened to be working on the bob muller investigation peter strong actually lost his job after messages you sent to lisa page were made public those messages were politically charged and revealed that the couple wasn't exactly fond of donald trump trump's not ever going to become president right right no no he won't stop it now here's some glaring examples from those messages that were included in meadows letter to the d.o.j. peta stroke contacts lisa page to discuss the media leaks strategy specifically to take says i had literally just gone to find this phone to tell you i want to talk to you about media leaks strategy with d.o.j. before you. congratulations page on a job well referring to the rogue trio it's about costs a page in the text stroke patients who are schools are coming out one which is

worse than the other about lisa's namesake stroke i did well done page a media strategy interesting now the attorneys representing peter struck say it's not what it sounds like it's actually simply a strategy for stopping the leaking of an authorized information from the administration but the f.b.i. has been caught leaking information to reporters before they've been caught red handed let's not forget that former f.b.i. director james comey actually made it to the senate intelligence committee that he leaked information about a conversation he had with donald trump to a reporter i understood this to be my recollection recorded of my conversation with the president as a private citizen i felt free to share that sort of very important to get it out and there's james comey is second in command andrew mccabe now he also got the can he was fired for leaking information to the wall street journal about the clinton foundation investigation so is this leaking strategy actually intentional in

hurting the administration there's certainly some information that points in that direction you have the worst case scenario where the government's own security agency the police department of the government is trying to maintain the power of the current administration and even after they've lost that power they're trying to undermine the new administration you have all these scandals that are just happy to accommodate these leakers and and put out information that are dangerous to the country in certainly dangerous at least to this administration are way too many people inside our government that are happy to to leak the information out to these these badly behaving media outlets so the next time you hear the words persons close to the investigation or in. form sources think where this media leaking strategy might lead next. art see new york keep up to date with.
