you. know. i. feel. the. heat. the russian defense ministry slams the actions of the israeli military blaming it for the downing of the plane in syria last monday where all fifty russian servicemen on board killed. all the stories of going to the world anti-doping agency reinstated russia's anti drugs body a major step toward saving many of the country's top athletes competing on the world stage. but us looking like maybe a no deal now the u.k.'s breck's it would go c.h. and still with the e.u.

as the bloc project st amazing can only plan. just a framework for economic cooperation will not work at this late stage in the negotiations it is not acceptable to simply reject the other side's proposals without a teacher have an explanation and counterproposals. hello welcome this is not international live at the weekend from moscow with me kevin now in for the next thirty minutes around of the big stories of the last seven days then starting with this earlier russia's defense ministry today said israel bowl full responsibility for the downing of the russian aircraft off syria's coast this week which killed all fifteen servicemen on board in a statement to the media the russian military presented a detailed timeline of the incident as they saw it concluding that the actions of the israeli air force led to the tragedy. at twenty thirty one on september

nineteenth the russian survey aircraft it was twenty started its patrol mission in a deescalation zone and in syria's northwest around the same time four israeli f. sixteen fighter jets left israel's air space they flew over neutral waters of the mediterranean and took up a combat ready position ninety kilometers from syria's port of latakia at twenty one thirty nine the israeli air force informed russia its f. sixteen s were to carry out an air raid in northern syria but the israeli message was misleading because israel informed russia it would strike targets in the north of syria but instead they had targets in the western province of latakia just a minutes after the call israeli jets conducted as strikes in the taqiyya province following the call of the russian it was when she received an order to move south and exit the supposed to target zone with such short notice the russian plane was unable to reach
11:03 am
a safe area eleven minutes after the attack began syrian air defenses started firing missiles already in combat position at twenty one fifty nine one of the f. sixteen started to maneuver towards the coast and approach the ill twenty series and defense systems registered the maneuver as the start of another attack and opened fire be able twenty was hit by a missile and four minutes later disappeared from radar as russia believes it was the actions of the israeli jets that put the old twenty at immense risk because the . pilot was aware the russian planes would be a preferred target for the empty aircraft missile because of its larger raid across section the also knew that syrian raiders were likely to identify the old twenty as a group of israeli jets because russia and syria use different friend or foe systems. but i can tell you brand new in this evening the israeli defense forces nerve disputed moscow's time line of saying that they're of sixteen's were not hiding behind the russian plane and left the airspace before it was shot. senior

correspondent laura looks at how the instant could affect relations now between russia and israel. whatever side you ask no one's guilty culpable or liable everyone blames someone else israel holds the assad regime whose military shot down the russian plane fully responsible for this incident israel also holds iran and hezbollah terrorist organization accountable for this unfortunate incident this regrettable incident is the result of the usual israeli impudence and rodimus who always use the filthiest means to achieve their unsavory goals and in that very hostility in our region was that the syrians who launched a missile while fending off a surprise every day on their country was a theory and his by law who apparently had an arms factory that just had to be bombed or was it the israelis who reportedly hid behind russian aircraft
11:05 am
presented objective data testify that the actions of israeli fighter pilots which led to the loss of life of fifteen russian servicemen either a lack professionalism were a lack of criminal negligence to say the least. russia holds israel responsible that is clear and israel's excuses have been dismissed as just that excuses the israeli regime put the russian servicemen at risk intentionally in order to be able to carry out this attack on syria which is of course illegal in itself the arrogance of netanyahu has caused him great difficulty now because he has to be answerable to the russian people and then set of apologizing as usual the israelis are looking for scapegoats israel insists it had to bomb the arabians hizbullah are there and then yet how many times is israel now
11:06 am
had to bomb syria dozens and dozens monthly to stop iranian and she aggression it says many times has iran attacked israel and this puts russia in a tough spot its trademark selling point of being friends with everyone may be impossible to keep up russia is now quite even handed in the middle east and he tries to keep good relation was all the parties was is was the arabs was the palestinians it was turkey was iran. i wonder how long will it lars that you can be a friend of everybody because by the end of the day we are dealing with a very fragile reality in the middle east with very contradicting powers and a lot of atrocity as we know in violence what russia thought it could manage and why not look at all it has done for israel. when russia flew
11:07 am
near the israeli occupied golan heights they warned them three hundred ten times they notified israel when israel bombed syria russia never shot down israeli jets or missiles even when they posed a danger to russian personnel at israel's request russia tore up a deal to sell syria s three hundred ad defense systems which would have made israeli air raids much more difficult a war. israel expressed its concerns as soon as the s three hundred deal with syria was signed israel concluded that with these new air defense systems syria would have been able to cover all of israel's air space that means the damascus could have shut down israeli military planes just seconds after takeoff the israeli said they cannot let that happen they expressed their alarm and asked moscow to break the deal russia's answered israel's concerns by first suspending the contract and
11:08 am
then withdrawing from it completely and returning four hundred million dollars that it already received from the syrian government. russia helped broker a deal to keep iranian and hezbollah forces in syria away from the golan heights from the israeli border at israel's request in golan heights the russian military at israel's request launched a special operation to identify and exuma the remains of israeli soldiers that for decades and russia got un troops by. to the golan heights after six years at the request of israel with the assistance of the russian forces all iran backed formations with heavy weapons drawn from the golan heights this can support israel more than one hundred forty kilometers to the east of syria in twenty sixteen at the urgent request of the chief of the general staff of the
11:09 am
israel defense forces israel will receive the mega three tank captured in one thousand and eighty two in lebanon and kept in russia ever since. and then there's the diplomatic cover russia has given israel by backing it up in the un security council or by protecting israel from a bomb as parting shots. or goal as a low russia has been helping israel a lot moscow has always taken israeli interests into account especially when it comes to the middle east settlements for example in twenty sixteen the outgoing about ministration trying to push the draft resolution on the israeli palestinian settlement with us at the un security council that resolution would have adopted artificial circumstances for the settlement was which were on except support for israel russia to israel's concerns into account and despite then u.s. secretary of state john kerry barging russian foreign minister lavrov with requests to vote in favor of it russia didn't do it moscow helped israel in that case so the
11:10 am
resolution didn't pass you'd have thought israel would be grateful or at least appreciate the effort but fifteen russian servicemen and now dead killed in the crossfire israel's preemptive vendettas which means one of two things either the israeli government has no care to all for all that russia has done or that the israeli military leads a very separate life. we're going to have their reporting the director of a think tank the focus is on the middle east told us it's clear from the timeline why moscow is pointing the finger at israel. they say it was deliberate that these really pirates chose to take refuge in in a plane or around a plane with a large or a much larger footprint on the radar screens i.e. the i l or the illusion twenty. he says that this was deliberate it's not clear and
11:11 am
i don't think anybody can go as far as determining the intentions of these really pilots i.e. did they do chris huge in this plane so that the syrians don't shoot or they took refuge in the plane and this plane so that the syrians if they shoot it would be shot down there is a fine line between the two analogies this is why he said this is close to criminal negligence you know to one end and great unprofessionalism in one hand so what is happening is that had it not not only been for the operation but also for the actions of these really airplanes and the misleading of the thing regarding the theater of operations none of this would have happened so it's clear for the for most girls that israel is to play now how zero school goes from there is is what remains to see. more people or the big stories of the week the world
11:12 am
anti-doping agency voted to reinstate russia's anti drug body thursday decision ended a three years suspension for alleged state sponsored doping. the great majority of the world anti-doping agency's executive committee decided to reinstate the russian anti doping agency as compliant with the world anti-doping code one hundred given russia a list of commitments to be reinstated one point was access to data and samples stored in a moscow lab russia's agreement to do that it seems was enough for water under the day over the main sticking point had been that report by the canadian dr richard mclaren which alleged that russia had run a state sponsored doping scheme the list called for it to acknowledge complicity in doping or moscow denies such a program ever existed but in the letter to wada russia sports minister admitted that there were issues within the country's anti-doping agency the reinstatement was widely met with dissent though as our sports correspondent elaine reports. it's
11:13 am
definitely been a very difficult decision for water and even in that statement it acknowledged that the decision would be unpopular and would be met with a lot of criticism the u.s. anti-doping agency chief. he went as far as saying that wada needs to be completely reformed after that decision it's a blow to clean sport and in fact for the past week or so the criticism coming towards was way you know everywhere on social media in the in the articles on television. not only that the number of and i'd open agencies in the world including the u.k. the united states new zealand australia poland canada they were all urging the president of water not to take the step to reconsider you know it's surprising because how would you expect the country to purify it sport if you're saying that it's agency which is destiny which is tasked to purify the ford should not be operational it's a chance that wada gave to the russian anti-doping agency to have fewer screen sport in the country this would change nothing for those athletes who have been
11:14 am
accused of doping are serving their bans this is all about clean athletes the door is not shut open for them it's only they've been given a chance to open that door into the sport because one of the main conditions of the international association of athletics federations to reinstate the russian athletes was that that should be operational meaning that you know athletes have to be checked for doping in order to be clean and in order to be participating international competitions flying the russian flag so essentially this happened now but a lot of work is ahead and make no mistake about it now risotto will be heavily scrutinized and will be heavily checked by water so it's definitely a long road ahead. the deputy head of russia's antidoping agency told us the organization went to great lengths to show compliance the blood what it's been a lot of work this saga has lasted for almost three years a lot of things have been done the russian anti-doping agency now has a completely team it's been hard at work for russia sports ministry as well as father there provided international experts to reveal the charitable any of
11:15 am
france's anti-doping agency and that from my viewpoint it's a well earned think three and it's not a victory of just one and it is the logical result of all the hard work of those involved the reinstatement of result of that i mean this is a turning point in the in this whole story and i see a good will help the russian blitz to get back to. the championships and i've seen this is a day to celebrate a lot of restructuring the result has been maimed and these is what makes this decision very important it shows that there is a willingness to change seeing and i've seen this is what cards are posix early sunday evening here in moscow i hope we can go and stay with me to for the next fifteen minutes coming up the battle to confirm break cover there is the next u.s. supreme court justice is heating over those sexual assault claims as more that to
11:16 am
come plus the rest of the week's news too. you know world big part of the lot and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the troops the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race in this hearing dramatic development only. i
11:17 am
don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. the british prime minister's position at home and abroad is left in serious doubt this week negotiations with the e.u. over brics that have seen another setback after two reason partnership blood was slapped down by the blogs leaders at that summit in austria talks got underway on wednesday in the city of salzburg the result of those left britain staring at the prospect of or no deal scenario in a speech following the meeting prime minister may demanded equal respect from the european union. throughout this process i have treated the e.u.
11:18 am
with nothing but respect the u.k. expects the same. takes a closer look at the current stalemate there between brussels and london. gregg's it an on off drama that feels like it's been going on for centuries well since twenty sixteen the british pm has of course got her back covered by newly appointed foreign secretary jeremy hunt and that's exactly what he did following the tenth summit in salzburg what reason is saying is don't mistake british politeness for weakness if you put it in a difficult corner we will stand our ground that's the kind of country we are how effective this so-called power lightness will be is debatable but let me continue with the plot the effectively has thrown out may's proposed post economic partnership with the e.u. task is uncompromising and france's present micron is pretty scathing to. just its
11:19 am
framework for economic cooperation. it must be clear that. we're. ready to compromise and. first of all this is. for fundamental freedoms. and. things are market and this is the way we. remain skeptical and critical to this part of the checkers proposal at this late stage in the negotiations it is not acceptable to simply rejects the other side's proposals without a detailed explanation and counterproposals you know teachers or something and i completely respect british sovereignty when i see that but it showed that those who see that we can easily live without you rip that everything is going to be all right and that is going to bring
11:20 am
a lot of money are liars but hunt is not alone brags it is continue to support me miss your mark owen is not only out of order he's completely wrong the e.u. is doing their classic case of trying to bully the u.k. and of a right. he of ways into taking a different position it is a well known british political truism that when you start insulting your opponents you've already lost the argument why would an economy want to change themselves to a sinking monolith when we could be at the center of a global network of free trade deals and investment partnerships a strong british stance indeed against the european union so after these political games you would think that the e.u. had slammed the door on any negotiations or proposals but no it seems that donald tusk has not quite done a u. turn but a mini seventy turn assuring the brits that a deal is not dead and went on to say that he was a true admirer of the british pm i'm going to leave the compromise could be found
11:21 am
confused well i certainly am the european union is in a complete mess you can see that the european union has huge problems brussels likes to put on a show it likes to show that it's tough and hard to try and dissuade of a nation states from leaving the european union like britain what i will see now is that those people in the council and the commission will be trying to work on a deal that goes to the very last minute of the last day of the negotiation that is what they've done in the past you can see that it is an elite at the top that come along so democratic nation states voting for leaders who support policies that their people want this is the core problem of the european union and that is why i will see further problems and further disagreements between the nation states in the european union. tribes like the supreme court picks probing to be one of the most divisive figures to be nominated for the job or position to confirm the break
11:22 am
governor stepped up this week of a woman made sexual assault allegations against him to strongly denies those accusations well as accuser has agreed to testify before congress kaleb openness more on trump's contentious choice for the lifetime position. the hearings surrounding the appoint. of a new supreme court justice by the president has turned into arguably the most burgeoning political issue in the united states at this time as the nomination process continues for brett kavanaugh we're seeing a circus of anger and accusations. brick kavanaugh mr chairman. mr chairman. we cannot possibly move forward mr chairman a very warm well it will not be given a meeting. for here. we cannot be recognized i
11:23 am
move to adjourn america and i move. oh here's why the issue is so diverse to the u.s. supreme court has the final legal say on crucial issues and justices are appointed for life no wonder both sides want to put the balance in their favor so the gloves come off the accusations are now flying first a woman who is sitting behind kavanagh was accused of giving secret fascist hand signals it turns out she is the descendant of holocaust survivors then some miss attributed quotes about birth control started flying around the internet hillary clinton herself was spreading this false information huge referred to birth control pills as abortion inducing drunks the set off a lot of harm both to me an issue for you to i want to be sure will clear this didn't happen you were spanked chicks to prove this false then cavanagh's habit of buying baseball tickets became breaking news investigative reporters. scoured his
11:24 am
financial disclosure. and learned that he had his friends tickets to a baseball game so as you can see there's still plenty of showing us to go around but then things got serious accusations of attempted rape which is career ending stuff in the age of me two came up christine blasi forward accuses brett kavanaugh the tempting to rape her back in the one nine hundred eighty s. when they were both teenagers at a party now she wants an f.b.i. investigation if the senators who have come forward and said they want to treat the seriously mean that then they'll they'll have an investigation of these allegations so that we all go into this more informed so twenty four women who went to high school with brett kavanaugh signed a letter saying that they support the accuser then sixty five women signed another letter saying that they defend brett kavanaugh his character now those who support the democrats generally believe the accuser those is support the republicans think
11:25 am
she is lying and i've been calling her names not surprisingly the media is now taking sides this was intended. and i've believe perfessor ford cabinet has lied multiple times she's not sure when it happened where it happened who else was present she never reported it to anybody this is nothing if they get away with this there is then you have c.n.n. running the country because this allegation could be made against anyone at any time now the us department of justice says that it's not a federal case but it seems like proving guilt or innocence isn't exactly the issue here i think the nomination should be withdrawn the bar here is not. whether you have not criminally assaulted someone it's credibility trust integrity so who is brett kavanaugh now to some he is a well respected adjudicator who happens to have some republican ties to others he's a sexual predator now supreme court justice nominations often turn into political
11:26 am
confrontations but rarely do they expose such a deeply divided america. artsy new york. when most outspoken opponents of broke over this nomination of the former presidential candidate hillary clinton but it wasn't long until many pointed out that her husband former president bill clinton faced similar allegations of sexual misconduct while in office and had kept his job. her husband when he was president faced allegations that were not the same as this certainly but had connections to these kinds of allegations from years ago have we learned anything over the years about due process not just for the accusers but also for the accused well i think that you have to take each of these situations you know sort of on their own merit. one of bill clinton's alleged victims reacted by asking me f.b.i. to investigate. you should know as well. as you the difference in the double standard that existed back then and still does today i think it's i think
11:27 am
this is this don ensuring that they can do this to mr cavanaugh it is the absolute definition of hypocritical and that's what's really disheartening especially for the american public to see these democratic leaders that have been elected being absolutely hypocritical and two faced really not only when it comes to the clinton trials where all of this wasn't enough what we heard it wasn't enough you can't come against him whereas a woman makes one allegation is refusing to testify there's no other information nobody really has any information there's no evidence but the word of this woman that's not to say that sexual assault allegations are important but the timing is very suspicious of course so we've now shown that the congress the united states of america doesn't care about facts or evidence as mrs it's as about political differences. much touted promote programs supposed to that because women support initiative in afghanistan but according to a report by washington watchdogs but enough of foia hundreds of millions of dollars
11:28 am
of u.s. taxpayer money was spent the goals were huge but in reality only a few dozen women were helped. i mean. since two thousand and one the door has been reopened for afghan women they joined the police the army and entered politics and together we can help women and girls across afghanistan develop their talents raise their voices and strengthen their communities and their country and. then i didn't know if this money was spent properly there would have been changes in women's lives but we don't know how they spun it or who they gave it to you know
11:29 am
they haven't done so much for afghan women there's an exhibit in hell's in india a man is representing afghan women this program in afghanistan is for women and we still get replaced by mad why don't we have the capacity. personally request of usa to support us by providing a smooth incompetently going to modernize the handcraft section their response was negative they said they were huge to train as i have ten years experience i don't need the training i need the machinery. plus i thought until i filled in forms last year and again six months ago they told us that they would let us know but there was no response even when we called them they never called back hundreds of thousands of women across afghanistan ready to
11:30 am
work ready to work. and they just some of the big stories of the last seven days just gone thank you for watching out to international. you know world. and conspiracy it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell. we need to be smarter we need to stop slamming the door. shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to.
