to my mind is a good example of how. more than world and modern countries can overcome problems this is a very good example but unfortunately in some countries shaping this perception of around being a world evil which is absolutely not true and wrong it's a wrong thing to do at the same time. you can't recall the many years for many years most of korea was in medieval. this country and. the leaders of this country and the country itself and the people of this country it was mentioned as the world's hugest problem and in the evil was the world which was used to describe the country and now yeah and now i think you heard mr trump thing several times a year so what happened to the city. not north korea has changed nothing like

that happened but united states changed their position then their policy toward north korea probably the they can use a similar approach to iran and the things will go better but donald trump also surprisingly thanked russia syria and iran for putting us he puts the offensive on hold he says that it's his personal achievement is it really that moscow tehran and damascus are following and obeying warnings from mr trump i'm not sure that we should use words like i think you or i want to think. not think another country for that u.n. security council international community is for the ration we have to cooperate to resolve problems probably when the problem is. we can agree to

relate to each other but actually this is a right time to call great and to join all our efforts to make all we can together and i think syria is not bad example for t.q. i mean my. particular pieces we cood theory for example chemical design the mentor of syria that was an outstanding experience i have to go because the moderate mr lavrov press conference i think that you will find lots of answers questions here in this. area thank you so much this is indeed a special moment because we're just minutes away from sergey lavrov this big press conference after an entire week at the united nations general assembly so indeed we have to rush with the foreign ministry spokeswoman marie is a horror so to see their. press conference in just a couple of minutes. thanks doing

a great job was reporting for live from new york talking to russian foreign ministry spokesman maria. the seventy third general assembly as you mentioned before is coming to an end with politician from all across the world taking these to the state to address the nations russian foreign minister. used his time in the spotlight to raise concerns over some countries trying to hijack the united nations principles. the number of states to seek you to preserve the self-proclaimed status of the global leaders and prevent a natural transition to a multi-polar world order through that means including political blackmail pressure and brute force so objectivity is lead to devaluation of international law the international community has paid dearly for the self-serving. countries diplomacy culture of negotiation and compromise have been replaced by unilateral restrictions

the un security council approved such actions are not just illegal but just. say they have foiled a major terror attack that's after arresting a gang of men trying to acquire assault rifles suicide vests and bomb making equipment challenging penske takes up the story this is been a long standing investigation. and eventually the police have been on this group which they say were planning to carry out a terror attack at a high level of vent to maximize the number of victims in casualties that the prosecutor in the netherlands this morning has been outlining some of the material this group were apparently trying to obtain the suspects were in search of a k forty seven hand guns grenades explosive vests and room materials for several car

bombs well what do we know about the ringleader the so-called ringleader of this group what we understand he's a thirty four year old man who is of a rocky origins we also understand from the police that he was convicted last year in two thousand and seventeen of attempting to travel to syria where he wanted to join i saw the terror as for the rest of the group seven members in total we have some from police that they were aged twenty one to thirty four three of the group including that ringleader had all been conveyed. did of trying to travel to syria where they wanted to join that terror group now we understand that they were attempting to not only put. rifles they were also looking to obtain woman which could then be used to create a bomb and we understand from the authorities in the netherlands that they were quite for a way along in their attempts to create this terrorist attack this is not the only time in september that terror has been on the front pages of the netherlands

earlier this month the jihadist was short in. after being. the threat level in the netherlands remains it out of a possible maximum of five meaning that there is a real concern that there is a chance of a terror attack in the country. the kremlin has reacted to the british media frenzy of reports that u.k. security services have identified a third suspect in the script poisoning case spokes person to me. we need facts not press speculation or an official investigations. reports on the latest developments . rumors upon theories on top of speculation it doesn't seem to end the kremlin has dismissed these rumors about the suspects their relationship with moscow was just that rumors and hasn't seen any case files.

the whole discussion is built around. results in some kind of investigations by some kind of. nobody can know which pieces of. which are true various investigations that are underway by journalists. this raises questions concerning the results of those investigations we do not know how. they are based and so on it's hold hold a discussion with the media we would like to do that we don't know if any of the facts are true if we can make any official statements about who looks like who lived and so. to be able to gauge when they have to have the initial. joint investigation. on the source. we jointly cooperate so that's why we don't want to speculate the latest but a third russian agent has been identified suspected of carrying out reconnaissance

at the script so the other theory that surfaced in the rounds in the media this week is about one of the two original suspects but share of bending cat which calls itself an investigative outfit and is widely seen as the russian says it has discovered his true identity and authority. apparently a decorated serviceman what they did is they truly through decades and decades of russian military academy graduation photos until they found a man with a resemblance to share of then use the database on the internet to find him. name that's all the proof that they offered dedicated the rest of their article to speculation about his career which is all odd when others revealed links between syrian jihad ists and pro-rebel white helmet rescuers telling cat insisted that it

merely likeness on photographs was insufficient proof but there you go we it team managed to reach the head of the military academy referred to by bedding cat where it should be used to study and they have serious questions about building cats narrative one hundred percent of graduates in a two thousand and one burg than i was a commander of the squadron there is very little information on him or his or graduating yes it's rubbish that enough a survey who would graduate such an academy would be sent on a task like this or graduates or field officers and it's not even special services who would be trained to perform tasks like these even so it's rubbish that a g.r.u. officer would be sent to police and so on they were not hours i think this story was planted seventeen years when the phrase from the photo is not remarkable they were between twenty and twenty one years old when they graduated but they have changed from that time and there we go the latest twist in the script. rule

coaster ride of rumors and speculation inconsistent seas and revelations and judging by what we've seen so far one shouldn't expect this ride to end anytime soon. the u.s. senate judiciary committee has voted to move the head with brett kavanaugh a supreme court nomination it now goes to the senate for approval life. more details skeleton if in across there said the vote passed but not without last minute drama talk us through what happened. while the judiciary committee of the u.s. senate is going to move camera. nomination to the floor now brett kavanaugh is nominated for the u.s. supreme court however the hearings have been ongoing without allegations of sexual assault and such now in the last minute we heard republican senator jeff flake say

that he would favor delaying a vote to confirm cavanagh as a nominee delaying an actual vote on the floor of the u.s. senate until the f.b.i. had completed an investigation this is the last minute statement from jeff blake kind of pushing to delay the final vote as the judiciary committee wraps up its work. i'd like to do think that we can. have a short pause and make sure that the f.b.i. can investigate that i understand it is that some of us would have to and i'm prepared to do it make a request to the white house to ask the f.b.i. to do that investigation it would be short. and limited in scope to the current allegations that have been made i would like to support the motion for that investigation. now in addition to what we heard this morning the last few days have been rather dramatic how we've

heard testimony not just from brett kavanaugh but also from christine blasi forward who accuses him of attempting to rape her when they were both teenagers things have gotten quite emotional with words from kavanaugh words from his accuser words from various members of congress getting rather heated lots of tears lots of anger on the floor of the u.s. senate on the u.s. congress and in the senate judiciary committee let's take a listen to some of what we've heard by rather than working with us my democratic colleagues chose not to participate in this process indeed before yesterday they had never even asked judge kavanaugh a single question about these allegations and yet again and again the refrain has been the same delay delay delay i'm very disappointed that we are here today voting on this nomination and specially in light of the testimony that we heard

just yesterday that it would be an absolute crying shame if we keep treating him like you like he's some sort of an imposter or some sort of a person who just couldn't do this job he can do the job he has done the job and he's doing it on me the circuit court of appeals the second highest court in the country and i have a lot of confidence in him this supposed to be an independent equal branch of government we're no longer that we are an arm in a very weak arm of the trump white house. now in addition i mean we can just go over the facts of the case so brett kavanaugh has been nominated for the u.s. supreme court that's a life long position in the united states a member of the judicial branch of the u.s. government for life he's been nominated by u.s. president trump and in the process of his confirmation people have come forward accusing him of sexual assault so we now have the u.s.

senate's judiciary committee voting along party lines to advance his nomination confirmation to the floor of the u.s. senate however an official vote a final vote in the u.s. senate will be delayed until the f.b.i. completes its investigation. ok thanks for this all eyes are definitely on this case on they show you fill us in as it progresses further commitment from their reporting from new york. taking a recipe at a mine is in germany on his first state visit as president and to take protesters have already showed up on the streets of lent a news conference with chancellor at about four to five closer economic ties. we find it very important that we cooperate with germany in the economic field according to the win win principle we have to think for german support or trade relationship is getting better again we want to win win situation with germany in

the present and the future. state visit with the full military honors for president here in germany and it was all very friendly at the press conference as he stood alongside chancellor angela merkel but scratch just a little bit below the surface and it was clear that there are still major issues between berlin and ankara president only one from his side he was all very keen always very keen to bring the talk back to economic cooperation between turkey and germany one of the reasons for that is because when it comes to economic cooperation well that's one area this lynn can unite against one person in particular. well the press conference it was announced that there will be an upcoming meeting

on syria and conspicuous by their absence from that list of invitees was donald trump in the united states the meeting will comprise the leaders of russia of turkey of germany and of fronts but this meeting between president won and chancellor merkel well it's a miracle it's happened at all on the scale in which it's happened just not so long ago in cast our minds back in there was some real. top shelf insults being hurled between the two nations i can see turkey being admitted to the european union i have never been able to see it happening on your money you have no relation whatsoever to democracies and you should know that your current actions are no different to those in the nazi period president jeopardizing everything that you've built together with others and your unspeakable nazi comparisons do not cut the

ties to those who want a partnership with turkey i'm calling on all my countrymen in germany the christian democrats the green body are all enemies of turkey to support those political parties who are not enemies of turkey as well the tensions between anchor and berlin could be seen in the room the press conference took place in one of the accredited journalists stood up during the press questions revealing a t. shirt that said freedom for journalists on it he was then removed from the press by security services leaving mr wanted mrs merkel to stand on looking rather or quit while it was done but there are clear issues and many of them relate back to the twenty sixteen attempted coup in turkey the turkish site they want those they claim took part in the coup or helped organize the attempted coup who are currently here in germany seeking asylum the german side they say it is five people in jail in turkey over the queue who were german citizens and they want them released

president or one wants. and others in the international community to condemn the golan movement he says were behind the attempted coup however chancellor merkel stood right alongside president said he shouldn't be holding his breath for that to be declared anytime soon from germany from another and also going to the u.n. movement we take you very seriously but we need more information to fix the status for this organization we do sorry some persons on the request of turkey but on the other hand there is a lack of infirm. ation where there are all of them are in this country. this state visit was all about bridge building some of that has been done but it's clear that they're still well they're still wounds from the angry exchanges between the two countries that have gone all over the last couple of years they have not gone at all just yet at times it looked like we were making progress it other times it looked like nothing's changed in the relationship and it's low ebb. facebook

has admitted that nearly fifty million accounts have been affected are for a quote attack on its platform the social media giant warned that perpetrators could have misused the accounts. are engineering team discovered a security issue affecting almost fifty million accounts it's clear the attackers exploited a vulnerability in facebook's code this allowed them to take over people's accounts . like r.t.c. here for more details can you explain more about that breach. yes facebook themselves are missing the breach occurred on tuesday and that fifty million accounts were affected by that breach but also nineteen million accounts were logged out and had their passwords reset so a huge inconvenience for tens of millions of users of the social media up across the world now facebook say that the accounts could have been used by perpetrators that they have just begun their investigation and that they are yet to

determine whether these accounts were misused whether any private data was accessed but also they don't know who is behind these attacks as of yet and that's led to a backlash on other social media platforms. oh my god someone besides through facebook was willing to sell your info to me have you info terrible times i knew something was up last night when i saw an error has occurred and when i clicked on to up now been logged out of my accountant i can't remember my password time to change it again if they refuse to protect those dimona tice consumers clients should quit in possibly the should be put out of business. now it's been a tough year for facebook they've come in for huge amounts of criticism that their platform has been used to disseminate fake news and they've brought in the atlantic council to get rid of so-called fake news that's controversial because it's seen as

being censorship on free speech and closing accounts which don't follow the government line in certain places also earlier this year facebook coming under fire over the cambridge analytical scoundrel where millions of facebook users had their accounts accessed and used for. political reasons by the company and so what came out of all of that is facebook founder mark zuckerberg really apologizing and promising that his company would try to do better. we have a responsibility to protect your data and if we can't and we don't deserve to serve you. so a bad year all round for facebook won't be helped by this latest news about this breach and interesting to see where the social media go from here. it won't help them at all thank you isa reporting from london there thank you.

ok when the russian foreign minister sergei lavrov of the told you before was about to give him media press conference press conference is happening after his fiery speech at the u.n. general assembly let's listen in to discuss all the things he would like to discuss . so again midafternoon and let's start our q. and a right away. foreign minister lavrov welcome back to the united nations and be on behalf of the u.n. correspondents association we are delighted that you take time to come and talk to the press as you always do my name is sherman brice speeds south african broadcasting i have a national question of national interest to south africa is russia disappointed by the new administration of the declining to move ahead on the nuclear deal with russia tom that was something that president putin raised of the bric summit earlier this year in johannesburg can you give us russia's position on that deal and also this has been some reports that russia is trying to lure thousands or

hundreds if not thousands of disgruntled farmers over the land question the the land debate is a very big topic of expropriation and there's a big debate in south africa are you trying to lure some of those farmers to russia . i didn't understand something about the farmers what was that so there is a policy new policy now of the land express creation in south africa that that they're implementing is a parliamentary process people could lose their farms without compensation and there's talk that russia is trying to. take the gap if you will and some of those disgruntled oh no. no. reason muddling risk up along the elections but the but. no time for this you know it's too far too far about three. years for this for the nuclear power station. actually energy eales depends on the readiness of both sides to agree on the format of the deal of

a libbie lot of resources and so on if the government of south africa and this by the way rethinking started before the current president became president of the government of south africa found out as it was looking into the project that that needs some more time and some more analysis of the situation that's the sovereign right under the old was respect the right of us. james space around which is zero can i ask you about a question about syria and about the important deal that you did russia did with turkey there is a question in that deal which is what happens to the fighters from the group that used to call themselves i'll nostra so can you explain to us how they are going to leave and if they don't leave who's going to force them to leave and where are they going to go. you have a. russian now. range moment

bigart in the deescalation zone unable. to see predates the creation. of a demeter i zone with a depth of fifteen twenty kilometers has been made between the presidents of russia and turkey it was approved by the syrian government it was supported by iran as a third party to the us and our process two days ago met here with the ministers of foreign affairs of iran and turkey. and we. i'm in no way. making any trouble for you know. what you did with your doing so and we. agreed that this agreement is being implemented the fight is being put outside of this but the mental ice with the belt together with the heavy weaponry guess there is a question regarding what will happen next next turkey as they probably know if you

read the memorandum side in sochi has embraced as the responsibility to separate the opposition which is ready to be engaged in the political process from japan. this is a difficult task with the us they've been it's been promising to do this for years during the bombing ministration and now with the current administration they failed . to do that administrations and we hope the turkey will succeed in separating the sober minded. opposition from jihad a new strange about the nuestra as you all know has been disconnected as a terrorist organization by the un security council so there is no room for them there. is much speculation regarding. the settlement of the problems with these fighters some say they have been. transferred to

a different. point such as afghanistan but this is inadmissible the terrorists should disappear all they should bear punishment they should be tried as to how we do that we will decide on that when we come to that but that social regiment it was never said it was settled every issue never said it was a comprehensive roadmap towards the final settlement of the ship when i said that but we want some time for the. civilians you know and we also succeeded. at the fork dispelling the threat to syrian troops and russian. air base because this was the place from which the fighters shelled by syria and our troops our base we will be acting. we didn't

farley but do you consideration will be very cautious taking into account the fact that we need to minimize the risks for the least of aliens i can guarantee you that what happened in iraq or in model in iraq was where as you know the anti-terrorist coalition led by the u.s. was working well not happen here we did not do anything like that in the lead or eastern ghouta and by the way i would say thousands of refugees are coming back to these places but those who had to leave the military actions are now back in iraq. for once in your representatives of some media went there and he said that people are trying to return there but is in fact impossible bodies a steel lying on the ground. i mean you know when everything is mine. so this is

a problem it needs to be settled let's not forget that in syria there are. other territories which. need to receive the attention from the international community and that zone in the south of syria with a lot of around the town through town fifty five kilometers. and there is the aruban camp inside and the situation there is dire. so that circle this area. around. with is a place for. terrorists and now we are in talks with the us so that it. was a cap on their presence of terrorists we need to. know that people will move out of this camp so i hope that all the problems will receive your attention but. yes we'll be keeping our. colleagues

in touch with what is being done and what will be done. with us to. go all out of the labor train cars are on the thirtieth of the term or more mark or three years since the start of russian military operation in syria and this is a good day to draw some conclusions on what's happening on the ground so could you do that please and another question is to go back to what mr trump has another question is to go back to what mr trump has said during his press conference his being famed king russia syria and iran for as he put it the operation. on taking it live pearl was put on hold and them

let them come in and actually eliminate the terrorists but in a selective way do you see in this kind of a signal.
