and counter. the world anti-doping agency reinstates russia's anti drugs body a major step toward seeing many of the country's top athletes back competing on the world stage. hello there wherever you're watching this sunday we're bringing you the biggest stories as reported right here on r.t. of the past seven days and today's developments as well and that's where we'll start in fact russia's defense ministry says israel bears full responsibility for the downing of a russian aircraft of syria's coast this week which killed all fifteen service personnel on board in a statement to the media the russian military presented a detailed timeline of the incident 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 and it deescalation zone

in living 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 ports of attack here at twenty one thirty nine the israeli air force in russia its f. sixteen s were to carry out an air raid in northern syria but the israeli message was misleading because the israel informed russia would strike targets in the north of syria but instead they hit 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 the russian it was when he received an order to move south and exit the supposed to target zone with such short notice the russian plane was unable to reach 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 to when she was hit by a missile and four minutes later disappeared from radar russia believes it was the actions of the israeli jets that put the old twenty at immense risk. pilot was aware the russian plane would be a preferred target for the anti aircraft missile because of its larger raid a cross-section of the also news that syrian raiders were likely to identify the old twenty as a group of israeli jets because russia and syria use different friends of those systems. and the israel defense forces dispute moscow's timeline of events saying that their f. sixteen s were not hiding behind the russian plane and left the air space before it was shot down r.t. senior correspondent what i guess they have looked at how the incident could affect relations 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 a 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 me 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 because 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 an act 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 service men 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 had to bomb syria dozens and dozens monthly to stop iranian and shia aggression it says how 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 evenhanded 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 but russia thought it could manage and why not look at all it has done for israel. when russia flew 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 air defense systems which would have made israeli air raids much more difficult or. 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 these really 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 then withdrawing from it completely and returning four hundred million dollars that it already received from the syrian government. now how or where most all goes from there is is what remains to be seen. the british

prime minister's position at home and abroad was left in serious doubt this week negotiations with the e.u. over bracks it saw another setback after to resume a partnership plan was slapped down by the block's leaders at a summit in austria talks got underway on wednesday in the city of salzburg a result of vote has left britain staring at the prospect of a no deal scenario in a speech following the meeting prime minister may demand it equal respect from the european union. throughout this process i have treated the e.u. with nothing but respect. the u.k. expects the say on the dear issued a now takes a closer look at the stalemate 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 us 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 e.u. 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 framework for economic cooperation. it must be clear that. we're. ready to compromise and. first of all this is. for fundamental freedoms. and. the single market and this is the way we. remain skeptical and critical understood

this part of the checkers proposal at this late stage in the negotiations it is not acceptable to simply reject the other side's proposals without a detailed explanation and counterproposals you know teaches us something and i completely respect british sovereignty when i see that but it should that those who see that we can easily live without europe if everything is going to be all right and that is going to bring a lot of money there are liars but hunt is not alone brags it is continue to support me monsieur mccraw 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. you never run. ot 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 turned assuring the brits that a deal is not dead and went on to say that he was a true admirer of the british pm and believed a compromise could be found confused well i certainly the dear tutor r.t. . of thousands of people including delegates from britain's labor party have been out in force in the city of liverpool this sunday they're demanding a second vote on bracks if people vote as they call it of the opposition parties also confirm that members will debate remaining in the e.u. during their annual conference which is in the city this week you can see the protesters there many carrying flags and also posters the slogan not a done deal now let's go live now to british radio host and journalist john gaunt either john and now i know this march was timed to coincide with the conference and

what have you but leda jeremy corbyn a slightly warming to the idea. of pushing for a second referendum he can say well i've got the backing of my members of his party that's more than to raise i'm a can say right now well that's certainly true but sir please never forget that jeremy corbett if you stretch and a half to be lucky a stick of luck and he would have the word and. the man all of this political career has been against the european union he has one sniff of power he's deluded because he's never going to get into power and he changes giant jude and you're right he's now saying and tom watson's backing him up if the members want to second vote then that's the way it will go otoh he hasn't defined what question is going to be given to the conference this is all the faster you say they all have placards in their hands where they're holding their domains because these people lost their democratic will of the united united kingdom people was to leave we wanted to be

out of there to years ago so there's no need for another vote this is all nonsense and largely down to mrs may being pretty damn useless do you think though that those private ambitions that you're suggesting that the labor leaders driven by here will still at least push towards another referendum that it will happen. i don't think another referendum will happen i think if they do they'll be riots on the street if there's a retrial of direction the democratic will of the people i think nobody trouble a few weeks ago machines may said they were worried and police chief said they were worried about civil disobedience if there was a no damn if there was a no deal i think people to be dancing on the streets but if there's a betrayal of thing going to be a totally different picture there should be no way that some daylight mark wrong can try to hold is to ransom with the country that lay down our lives our

forefathers to rescue europe from tyranny of these people forgotten me however mrs murray should never have gold bricks are all the united kingdom into this situation we should have will to wait months ago she is over remain at to her core so we have this bizarre situation which recent days are really ada but she says she wants out and jeremy caller called in east st he wants to stay even though he's actually a correction senior british politics easy in their guts and if not in a sewer they've all got to stop thinking about their party and their careers and put our great nation first and then go on to listen to the people have the know and learn the lesson of the referendum and they're not learned the lesson of it simply the lesson of the election of donald trump now are populist movements having gone all over the globe and they are all anti the establishment and each of these people

who westminster still can see it ok but assuming that the reason may have driven pretty much just by wanting to keep her job and what can she do because that dossier was revealed earlier this week that shows the tory party involved has a circling over of absolutely certain however and i use this term advisedly if any of them willing to man up and actually do it we've seen boris. making out he's a line about the suicide belt jekyll resolved in the shadows as well david davis there's going to be a press conference for them tomorrow which will be very very interesting as well but i think the problem is nobody wants the poison chalice of sorting out breaks it after the mess we've got ourselves in this is just a ludicrous situation the establishment we have the three unwise men tranq and john major i'm glad going round europe is going to convince people he didn't know referendum we don't need another referendum the people decided he was the biggest

democratic exercise in our history but the establishment don't want it i mean do you remember operation fear one do you remember barack obama coming over telling us to vote that way all the canadian a governor of the bank of england they couldn't believe it when the british people said no not that he's will the british people say so i want rid of may i want rid of a very very quickly i fancy boris johnson is prone minutes before showtime with jay cories morg as he's number two and i tell you what they should have no jew for our june as their advisor. should or donald trump is if he's available giving don't show up when he got in this mess he would have walked months and months ago and what united kingdom should have done how dare maccarone try to holders britain to run so. just quickly in the final few seconds before we go then before

we get to b. day next march which is more likely to happen a general election or a second referendum. if it could be a general election i think the government could traps in the next couple of months if there was a general election with a new leader the jurors will get voted in by mr you like many people in britain i don't know who the hell i would vote for i feel all of them disconnected with the british people britain is in a very dangerous position at the moment and all this talk about burks is just a bit of a sideshow well speed happening in this great country of ours is that our politicians are ignoring the people and that's always dangerous and i guess the key people are labelled be seeing which way the wind's blowing in liverpool this week all right for now don't go in birmingham thanks very much for that thank you russia fascinates took a step towards returning to the international arena after a key decision following the doping scandal but they're not out of the woods yet as a team reports when the weekly returns in a couple of moment. so

what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race. and spearing dramatic development the only really i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. you know world of big partisan movies 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. and shouting past each

other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. and i get more of the biggest stories from the past week now in the world anti-doping agency's voted to reinstate russia's anti drugs body thursday's decision ended a three year 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 and is compliant with the world and code given russia a list of commitments to be reinstated now one point was access to data samples

stored in the moscow lab russia's agreement was enough however the main sticking point has been the report by the canadian dr richard mclaren which alleges that russia ran a state sponsored doping scheme the list called for it to acknowledge complicity in doping moscow denies that such a program ever existed but in a letter to water russia's sports minister admitted that there were issues within the country's anti-doping agency the reinstatement was met with wide to dissenters on sports correspondent alexa governorships reports it's definitely been a very difficult decision for water and even in that statement acknowledging 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 water 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 waters way you know everywhere on social media in the in the articles on television. not only that number of and i don't think 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 sport 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 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 federation. to reinstate the russian athletes was 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 restart it will be heavily scrutinized and will be heavily checked by water so it's definitely a long road ahead all that said the deputy head of russia's anti doping agency told us that the organization went to great lengths to ensure compliance. it's been a lot of words the saga has lasted for almost three years a lot of things have been done the russian anti-doping agency now has a completely knee team it's been hard work for russia sports ministry as well as their provided international expertise to build a can of already a fractious anti-doping agency from my viewpoint it's a well earned i think terry and it's not a victory of just one and it is the logical result of all the hard work of those involved at the reinstatement of this is a turning point in the in this whole story and i see it will help the russian to get back to. the championships seemed. to

celebrate a lot of restructuring. that has been made but it is what makes this decision very important it shows that there is a willingness to change seeing. what comes. the much touted promote program was supposed to be the biggest women support initiative in afghanistan but according to a report by a washington watchdog it's been an utter failure hundreds of millions of u.s. taxpayer dollars were spent the goals were huge but in reality only a few dozen women were helped. i'm. 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 spend it or who they gave it some money for they haven't done so much for afghan women there's an exhibition house in india a man is representing afghan women in this program in afghanistan is for women and we still get replaced my man why do we have the capacity. personally request of usa to support us by providing a smush scenery incompetently going to modernize they had to have section their response was negative they said they were huge to train is after news 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 put it work. and that's the weekly for this salad next we continue our in-depth look at the ukraine crisis from its causes to its current status and what the future might hold you're watching ulti international from moscow. you know world big partisan movie 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 back and shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now for watching closely watching the hawks. will make this manufacture consent to step into public wealth. when the ruling classes protect themselves. when the final merry go round lifts only the one percent. in the middle of the room sick. real news is really.

what politicians do listen to them.
