the recent wave of anti migrant rallies across germany reverberates within the country's top ranks germany's domestic security chief his job the country reels from the writing we hear from the father of a man who died in a brawl with migrant. hello from moscow this wednesday the nineteenth of september. the russian capital with the news this hour. after the downing of a russian military plane on monday night off the syrian coast the blame game is intensifying between the main parties directly or indirectly involved in the incident our senior correspondent breaks down the aftermath it's a bad really bad situation there's the tragedy fifteen people dead the friendly fire and then there's the fallout everyone's blaming everyone.
3:01 pm
gets deliberately created a dangerous situation for the warships and located in that area while it may have been a syrian missile that down the plane it was israel that set the stage says russia israel bomb syria again the syrians defend themselves and the russian jet gets caught in the crossfire the israeli military though blames iran and hizbollah israel holds the assad regime whose military shot down the russian plane fully responsible for this incident. it was their fault israel had the bomb syria you see iran was transferring lethal technology to hizbollah via the syrian military apparently so israel had to stop them the syrians panicked and started launching missiles everywhere israel is blameless says israel as for the united states can you comment at all on the shoot down of the. russian jet yesterday and whether
3:02 pm
or not us had any visibility in it over de confliction mine or any other means as far as the tractor we did the coalition was not involved with this did you have any visibility into it as it was happening through either your own radar or through the confliction line we did not that i'm tracking and see what happened usually what one doesn't see what happened one doesn't blame anyone unless one can get in a cheap shot against iran i would like to express sorrow to our council partners russia for the tragic loss of life. when the russian plane was downed yesterday if russia is interested in bringing peace to syria it should make sure that it's militias leave syria once and for all the risk of a broader conflict and leave with them. ariana's responsible for creating the syria we see today it's an interesting argument israel's been bombing syria monthly
3:03 pm
sometimes weekly in order to prevent iran from launching an attack on israel to date there have been zero iranian attacks and a whole lot of israeli ones that would you know be ninety to one that we condemn this new active israeli aggression against my country the u.n. security council must bring israel to account for its violation of international israel attacking syria twice this week he said but apparently some are unaware of that and we strain. isn't that how selective people are about international law and bombing but others seeing this as a warning wake up call the risks of conflict escalation a huge risk of miscalculation a misunderstanding that led to the downing of aggression and catch late on a small scale the match an even more frightening with of
3:04 pm
a warning to miscalculation we call on all parties especially when we are getting these type of positive news regarding what could have been a dramatic military escalation to refrain from military action israel has expressed its condolences and even offered to send the head of its air force to russia to report on the incident putin's car saying this was a tragic fluke certain russia was thrown us this situation is different from the one when a turkish jet shot down our plane but then turkey intentionally shot down the aircraft but now it looks like a chain of accidental. fortunately it appears a military escalation has been prevented verbal one is in full swing of course but there's a lesson here five nuclear powers fighting in syria on different sides and the tiniest spark there could cause the biggest inferno the world's ever seen
3:05 pm
to recap syrian forces shot down a russian military plane killing more fifteen people on board as a response to an airstrike by israeli f. sixteen fighter jet the tragic incident happened around thirty five kilometers off the syrian coast as the aircraft was returning to a russian run air base. meanwhile president trump on tuesday once again claimed it's the united states the deserves most of the credit for fighting terrorists in syria we have done a tremendous job in syria and in that region eradicating isis which is why we're there. we're very close to being finished with. and then we're going to make a determination as to what we're going to do but we have a radical aided isis it a very large area of the middle east the vainglorious claim that the united states has defeated isis is of course enough to make a horse laugh because every sente and being knows that it was syria and russia and
3:06 pm
its allies in syria that defeated isis in almost all of the country and if the americans are trying to stop an assault on it lip which they clearly are then by definition means that isis and particularly al qaeda ironically are going to stay in libya if no one attacks them and no one crushes them indefinitely which i suppose by trumps logic means the us will be remaining indefinitely they hope. the greek government is to move around two thousand migrants from an overcrowded refugee camp called moria on the island of lesbos and after human rights organizations condemned conditions in the camps saying it's leading to child suicides and exposing people to high levels of violence and according to the latest report by doctors without borders it's children who are suffering the most. we are witnessing people who are trying to suicide that's happened often. this containment
3:07 pm
policy are affecting people many people out and they're destroying their future you have going over a lot on the hour or you would up there are many many. also so far by your life of course we've the consequences to our mental issues since the last time i when i was here are. when we gave up or. child and i six and on going out there are. so swallowed by yelling at the mahdi army twenty two thousand refugees have come to greece since the start of the this month alone fifteen hundred have arrived at that camp aid worker michael raper who spent time at the site describes the conditions there for us. you have one toilet for the seventy two people there is one show with four people so desegregation has to be bad people are suffering from past
3:08 pm
foundations and they're also running into health problem into mental health problems because they're kept there for so long time and they have no perspective don't know how the case will go along when they've had to be able to leave died and this is a place that is no rule of law the police is just protecting the infrastructure of the camp but i'm not doing policing when the camp so this is a very unsafe place for sure not a place that you should put women families that flee from the war human rights activists are now calling on the european union to help migrants that. we had in the moment the cooperation of all you were after him to find out we know all of them that these people can do or not then another lie given them again
3:09 pm
a big old book or who knew the moment not all of them but also. the great governments responded to the criticism saying they're doing their best to make quick decisions about the asylum status of migrants but it's not easy they're also calling on the rest of europe to accept a proportionate number of migrants over the un refugee agency and les paul says europe's doing all it can to help out and greece is receiving support. research and you need to share supporting to go on and on is a post for example and we are. we have six pieces for six hundred seventy s. . and migrants to be committee did you know darren's initially provided to us who gets assistance to. petition to understand sixteen migrants on this course we are also supporting to go home and getting their capacity regarding. working closely he starts with diction and the station tender be very hands on
3:10 pm
the head of germany's domestic security service has been removed from his post it's after he question the veracity of video showing anti migrant mob violence during demonstrations in the city of kemet the same footing to the chancellor merkel used in her condemnation of the rioting that here's our europe correspondent peter oliver. well hans york matsson is out as the head of germany's internal security services but he's not going to be signing on for jobseeker's allowance just yet he's actually gone from that job into a new role with the interior ministry in fact he's going to be the new state secretary for that ministry working alongside his political protector the german interior minister horse as a whole for the office of the president of the office for the protection of the constitution will be reshuffled mr zuma become a state secretary in the interior ministry interior minister whole see how far has high regard for mr martin's abilities on questions of domestic security where the
3:11 pm
opposition here aren't happy they've got on to say that it's the german people that lose out in this game of musical chairs merkel has cleared another critic out of the way under now this can be celebrated in the as p.d.s. tough and they hold firm could pull his hand out of the noose the voters are losing again because the critical removal of mars and highlights the fatal consequences of immigration policy or the roots of mr marson is removal and new appointment of comments he gave to the build newspaper not so long ago it was in relation to the fall out in cabinet softer a thirty five year old man was stabbed to death in the city we saw right wing gangs out on the streets they were filmed hunting anybody that appeared to be foreign mr marson said these videos had been purposefully faked and that they'd been distributed to try and skew the narrative by the german media now there was a lot of pressure as you could imagine on him to produce evidence for the statements he didn't do that in fact instead of producing evidence he's got into
3:12 pm
this new role in that is really outrage some politicians here in germany particularly those in the left party the head of the federal office for the protection of the constitution will he speak news is now qualified for a position in the interior ministry if there are factual reasons for he. replacement he cannot be so seamlessly easily recycled violent crimes involving migrants are firmly in focus here in germany right now in fact i just spoke to the father of a man who was killed following it all to cation with migrants in the city of britain last year he said his family had been deny justice and that he himself is being called a white nationalist even a nazi when he spoke out about this at demonstrations here's a quick tease of the interview the full version will be aired on friday here on r.t. it was all my info for you guys what does it was in england or when should be the reason go home get through it get your info. data step one. doesn't

3:14 pm
3:15 pm

3:17 pm
politicize the media or put up barriers to reporting it's after indications that the justice department plans to make some chinese state media agencies register as foreign agents beijing also denied claims that it was interfering in the upcoming u.s. mid-term elections we don't normally do it to them for the anyone who is familiar with china's diplomatic policy should know that china pursues the principle and position of not interfering in other countries domestic affairs we don't want others to interfere in our domestic politics and we will not interfere in the domestic politics of others a washington apparently wants to enforce the foreign agents registration act known as foreign onto state owned chinese media groups. the news agency and the china global television network it's filled with their strong ties to the chinese government and fears over possible meddling in the november midterm elections were behind washington's decision we've asked the u.s. justice department for reaction but it's refusing to comment for it was created in
3:18 pm
one hundred thirty eight to counter covert influence by nazi germany within the united states those required to register as foreign agents have to submit disclosure forms about their activities on u.s. soil they can also be stripped of their congressional press credentials which limits access to certain u.s. officials farrah's grabbed headlines over the past year with two russian news agencies including this channel being forced to register under the act or china in the us are also in the midst of a tit for tat trade war which shows no signs of slowing down the u.s. will impose two hundred billion dollars worth of duties on chinese products next week or china will react retaliate with sixty billion in tariffs on american goods all this will mean that as much as ninety five percent of chinese imports to the united states will be affected let's go live now to china expert and lee who's a professor at new york university wesley welcome to r.t. now let's start with the foreign agents registration act for some say that far as a violation of free speech others will point to china's record on restricting foreign media there so much that that much of
3:19 pm
a problem. well let's put this in the whole context of u.s. china relations it's clear today that the u.s. is trying to basically find a way to stem china's rise and they're doing it through numerous ways whether it's through the tariffs whether it's through limiting the foreign direct investment that china's been making this is just another example of something where the u.s. is trying to sort china's influence the u.s. has seen china and has officially publicly said that they see china as a competitive threat. economically as well as politically and and so this is basically an expected move in this framework and i would say that you know the specifics of whether you know it's
3:20 pm
a tit for tat on the media side to sort of irrelevant because in the past the u.s. was trying to bring china into the fold and make china more american so to speak and. basically overlook various differences because they realize that china is simply a country that was developing and had to play catch up in a lot it areas and so. we couldn't expect china to have the same exact standards as a lot of western countries and so we were a lot giving that leeway. these moves these days show that it's a completely different attitude now so you think with foreign. trade now becoming a particularly unseemly battle but now we are doing is of trying to be on the same page between the six in china that's now out the window as far as you see.
3:21 pm
right yeah i believe that there are folks in washington that believe at this point that this is their last ditch effort to. maintain u.s. supremacy and germany before it's too late because if they don't do something drastic china will be too powerful tool. to influence and over time and so they are acting on these beliefs by pulling the rug under trial in every which way they can how damaging do you see news agencies which have to register as foreign agents are going to set up a very different time to the media that we've got now does it really make a difference given how people get their information these days. was think it's more. i guess an initial gesture right may not be substantially different but who knows it could change very rapidly as we've
3:22 pm
seen in so many other arenas. if they're registered as a foreign agent it's very possible down the road that. the ministration or congress can. set up special rules for anyone doesn't is a foreign agent to have more restrictions then they currently are faced with and so these things clearly. can change overnight so it's too early to tell your own keep watch on that note for now though professor and lee from new york university thanks for your time. there's a new twist in the iranian nuclear deal saga the united states now says it wants a comprehensive treaty with terror on its nuclear and missile programs even after i quit the previous agreement back in many. new deal that we hope to be able to sign with iran and it will not be a personal agreement between two governments the last one we seek
3:23 pm
a treaty of iran nuclear deal was signed in two thousand and fifteen between iran the permanent members of the u.n. security council and germany after nine years of talks it ended a long lasting standoff over iran's nuclear enrichment activities and when the contract was signed it was greeted happily by all sides. ok let's now bring it independent journalist welcome back to you thanks for joining us the u.s. says it wants a new deal with iran and new conditions what do you think washington's after specifically. well they have a point in the sense that up to now it was about the bomb you know the freezing of the your rain you're in richmond by the iranians but now the americans say what
3:24 pm
about the rockets but by the i.c.b.m.'s the inter continental ballistic missile to transport the bomb since iran is a good friend of north korea that has the technology of i.c.b.m.'s everybody is a bit afraid that they already have transmit that this technology to iran and so the americans say not only the bomb but also the vector that's what they. the us says that any vote of the un security council is not enough in the final final points need to be agreed with the senate that's the key difference for them isn't it that last time it was an agreement between governments as it were in power at that time rather than a treaty which is a very different animal isn't it. yes and it's also a way maybe to save face for iran that it's more global that it is sort of approach or multilateral approach that make it possible for the iranians not to lose because of course that's so terrible for for countries like iran to lose face and in diplomacy but of course with
3:25 pm
a person's like old like pale was quite solid with the new guy mr old gives a good impression with of course is that a lover of. european side is much weaker with for they can work on getting all these people together might make it that iran except to go all the way and have the rockets under supervision as well what's changed so significantly since the first day of apart from all the turbulence we doubled from the white house and that side of things because from iran's point of view it was all about the nuclear program now will it stick missiles being dragged into this to. yes of course it's the vector of the bomb or if you have the bomb. it's nice to look at it but you need to transport it where you want to to explode so it's understandable that the rocket technology should have been into the deal at the beginning. and really it's between iran and the americans because europe is completely paralyzed whatever is said by
3:26 pm
mr michael and all of us it's not true we cannot do anything the companies the states in europe have so many items so many products that are exchanged in the dollar of the currency of the dollar like airplanes built in europe are sold in dollars and the oil we import is paid in dollars that we cannot go against the terrorists the sanctions imposed by the u.s. even china is not for you see what happens now with the tit for tat negotiation so they sell a lot to the u.s. they don't want to have that problem on top because they would continue dealing with iran so really it's america on one side any iran on the other they both need to accept to go further and we can only help russia china and europe the twenty fifteen deal took so long to achieve lots of delicate marathon negotiations
3:27 pm
russia's deputy foreign minister has said the iran nuclear issue can and should be solved without pressure but that's not the trump white house way of doing things is it so what could be the repercussions. difficult to say of course the decision sought a bit erratic sometimes in washington these days. that's the.
