the recognizing the independence of kosovo. unilaterally proclaimed. they were doing some costs. moscow and new delhi sign a contract for the delivery of russian gas four hundred air defense systems on board the countries. it's my job as a minister of commerce and industry and a reason to make sure. that the way to city support economically to the industry to the business of movies and this is you going strong that it should. be a scheme to have people see that there are just and the biggest delegation from the shows that we're going to companies would be from india and most digital wouldn't that it doesn't do to them so we feel that to be able to make business deals we're going to find out more investments coming from that we do benefit both the

countries. there is they saw a string of accusations by a number of western countries and international organizations made against russian military personnel russia's g.r.u. military intelligence service was implicated and a host of cyber attacks including attempting to hack the international chemical weapons watchdog artie's daniel hawkins breaks down the details election interference troll factories this information about how king we've heard most of it before but the latest charge sheets against russia is all encompassing and endless there were hundreds of victims targeted by these russian criminals if they flout international law in this way russia's indiscriminate campaign of cyber attacks the violations of several u.s. criminal laws they will be exposed russia must stock reckless and irresponsible behavior. this reckless behavior the russian government needs to know. they want

to fully condemn this it will be exposed and it will be consequences it seems every accusation of malign activity over the last four years from the downing of m.h. seven team to the water doping scandal has come back all at once united under a common name and symbol before it was often vague russian hackers agents or just putin but apparently we can now name the entity responsible for everything all along the g r u russian military intelligence even specific names and faces have been linked with the alleged crimes seven individuals were indicted by the u.s. with four of them also accused the involvement in the netherlands o.p.c. w hack and three war already featured in robert mueller is continuing russia meddling probe. this group of just sixteen people is certainly kept busy according to the latest allegations how can the malaysia airlines probe the o.p.c. w solsbury poising investigation and he don't get agencies from canada to brazil

the u.s. election you name it the hand of the g.r.u. is never far away and according to some the allegations are irrefutable proof of russia's guilt in all other incidents here you have evidence of the russian military launching a cyber attack on the very organization the international organization in the netherlands set up to investigate those novacek attacks and why would you do that if you were the guilty party and as we've seen before there's no need to me tell you real standards of evidence remember when the n.s.a. was accused of spying on charts of the merkel back in twenty fifteen well the german federal prosecutor in the system had a legal burden of proof to be met to prove this no such luxury what rushes in the dock they're almost certain and high confidence from u.k. security services are enough to beat the drum for new sanctions and anyway the

soviet era k.g.b. is long gone the image of public enemy number one is long overdue for an overhaul and this is the perfect opportunity to consolidates the perfect storm i think this is a coordinated attack look this was got everything it's got it's got chemical weapons got election meddling it's got doping it's got every other thing you can think of that the russians are guilty of and i think this cloud about cues asians is its own purpose in a normal rational people would say well why would they be say these things unless they had some purpose in mind the purpose is to poison any possible rapprochement between washington especially and russia as donald trump said he wanted to do during the campaign to make sure that cannot happen and that relations continue to go from bad to worse we may not know the whole truth all which side is hiding so. thing but it's image and narrative which is important and the russians yo u. boat is becoming firmly embedded in public mindset. we spoke to russia's

envoy to the u.k. and he claims that evidence from the british side is still lacking. we believe that this kind of statement reckless and explain why first of all this statements are not supported by any evidence this is first second we hear this kind of a league asians for quite an hour quite a time and in this to sell than seventeen for a former foreign secretary boris johnson was in moscow. of russian foreign minister offered him to have a consultations on the cyber security and he said if you have any questions in connection with the alleged russian activity we can put this specialist from two countries sit down on the table and to discuss professionally what are the concerns of the british side the british refused to do this and instead of the they launched

reckless attacks on us without any evidence this is quite a big story you know this is the name of the russian intelligence organisation you know if you names there are expelled and all these things but the beef i mean this is this substance is not. basically given so we're going to ask the british side to give more information on that and we're going to repeat our call if you have some information please share this information and we're ready to sit down and talk. to britain security service am i five has been allowing its informants for almost thirty years to participate in crimes in order to prevent more serious offenses that's according to a tribunal in the country the case garnered attention after a group of human rights activists voiced concerns artis and associate churkin and joins me live now with more on this and its to see what kind of details do we have

at this point. well jackie this is certainly a very interesting case now being heard. in london at the investigatory powers tribunal which is the court that provides oversight of the work of domestic and overseas security services here in the u.k. and in this particular case that was brought forward the question is whether there is a limit to the crimes that m i five agents me have been allowed to carry out while carrying out operations here on u.k. soil and this is indeed a case that was brought forward by four human rights groups including privacy international and reprieve who are arguing that it's important to know the extent of the seriousness of the crimes that m i five could have potentially been getting away with. it abuse that the security service believes that good if it thinks it would be in the public interest authorized but disciplined torture sexual assault on the grave criminality in the u.k.

. well no this tribunal heard today from these groups bringing forward the allegations and demanding answers to a secret policy and what was referred to as british domestic security services the m i five working under secret policy that has been dubbed a third direction it was said that this is a policy that has been in place for decades under different versions and is still in place today and according to these groups bringing this case forward they are saying it is crucial to find out whether or not any of those actions could have been violations of human rights of basic human rights so that's what they want to know and in terms of the documents that were presented at these hearings there was one very largely redacted government policy document that essentially talks about the occasional necessity of criminality when it comes to such issues as

well as a letter dating back to twenty twelve written by then prime minister david cameron to a judge who is overseeing such issues at the at the time essentially calling for him to not pay too much attention to the legality of such operations. this acuity service has a longstanding policy for the agent handlers to agree to agents participating in crime for the avoidance of doubt i should be clear that such oversight would not provide endorsement of the legality of the policy you would not be asked to provide a view on whether any particular case should be referred to the prosecuting authorities. well in this letter david cameron does bring up the question of the potentially making this information public and then goes on to say he kind of decides against it citing as has become so traditional national security so given really the thick veil of secrecy surrounding this issue as well as the apparent longstanding existence of such conduct of operation it really seems like this is

a case that is going to be dragging out for quite some time so while we'll certainly be watching where it ends up heading towards artie's and associate churkin i thank you for bringing us that report. the u.s. congress has approved the creation of a sixty billion dollar investment agency to fund projects and developing countries this has led some to question what president donald trump's top priority is to make america great again or to challenge china explains the labor doll trust plan to put america first i will always put america first america first america first rebuild and restore america's depleted infrastructure and i've been in construction building all my life i love it. i love the smell of a construction site right the roads railways power plants and water systems of the united states are still in some pretty poor conditions but donald trump said that fixing it up would be

a breeze infrastructure is the easiest of all but now the department of transport disagrees with him there appears to be a lock of consensus and how to pay for this and tom told us how he was going to pay for rebuilding the united states he was going to do it by cutting overseas spending we have spent seven trillion dollars in the middle east seven trillion dollars what a mistake we're trying to build roads and bridges and fix bridges that are falling down and we have a hard time getting the money it's crazy and the usa is already saving money this way they've just cut aid to the pakistanis to the palestinians and to the united nations so are you ready to start revving up those drills and jackhammers are you ready to start pouring some cement and laying rails well yes but not in the usa the usa is about to spend sixty billion dollars to build infrastructure in developing countries sixty billion is that number sound familiar well it should that's the

amount of money china promised to africa last month and it's pretty clear that u.s. politicians heard about it this investment will allow us to reduce poverty in areas that are critical to our national security compete with chinese influence in the developing world so if you were all excited about railways and highways and development here at home wait a minute looks like america is not going to be first after all it's a very strange situation to be talking about being sixty billion dollars in infrastructure development in the third world which certainly needs it while not funding the disastrous infrastructure in the us which is as bad as in the third world i don't see it going anywhere frankly big. as i think when this comes out and americans see it happening they're going to freak out because our roads are as bad as third world roads why it didn't happen was because. trump had other

things he wanted to do more which was to give tax breaks to the rich and to. a huge huge increase in the military budget. as mentioned earlier the u.s. is seeking to compete with chinese influence in the developing world and it looks like washington is already attacking beijing on several fronts first there's america's trade war with china and now vice president mike pence is accusing beijing of trying to remove trump from the white house and china has responded strongly accusing washington of interfering and other country's affairs china has initiated an unprecedented effort to influence american public opinion the two thousand and eighteen elections and the environment leading into the twenty twenty presidential elections china wants a different american president it is ridiculous for the u.s. side to stigmatise its normally exchanges and cooperation with china as china

interfering in its internal affairs and elections the international community already knows full well who wants an early infringes upon others sovereignty interferes in others internal affairs and undermines others' interests. after a term brought in the first wave of tariffs on chinese goods beijing answered with restrictions on u.s. imports it also filed an official complaint with the world trade organization washington then followed up with more than two hundred billion dollars worth of terrorists against china who were tired of it by imposing sixty billion and levies also china has announced it's stopping all american oil imports one of the country's top crude carriers says business has quote totally stopped beijing had been the second largest importer of us oil jeffrey albert tucker from the american institute for economic research thinks that china may have the upper hand in this trade war. do us is definitely an old news because if you look at what's happening in the china right now they're actually lowering terrorists on many goods or. from

imports from other countries besides us like actually lowering tariffs so it's actually a good thing for chinese consumers and it's good it's credit helped the chinese economy and china is seeking to become. independent in terms of its fuel needs from the u.s. going forward this is a presumption widely shared all over china conservatives not just republicans are taking kavanagh's side as saying that this liberal scandal has united the right against democrats and apparently this scandal has reminded them that liberals hate them more than they hate the president saying that they are that deplorable so now so we'll just have to wait to see if these predictions do come true in november so the backlash to cavanagh's nomination may end up playing into the republicans hands the political commentator anthony logan things there would have been an outcry whom ever trump nominated. to break cavanaugh himself is not really the issue here it could have been anybody could have been somebody on

a lift anybody putting people will be against simply because they don't know any. change the direction of the country and also solidifies legacy people want him to be on. one term president to lift their put a lot of money a lot of resources and a lot of time into their kenya days we don't quite understand how that money they put into it or candidates is also going to impact and empower the opposite side because we see how much effort they're put into every thing that happens whether it was a. supreme court just put in an air bridge kavanaugh now in the midterms i feel like the left the extremes it is they feel like it's an opportunity for people to come out and express themselves to try to stop it they'll take advantage of it. a former international monetary fund is now potentially facing up to four years in jail for allegedly using company credit cards and it seems he is not the only holder of the top job at the i.m.f.

to fall from grace. and for several years dominique strauss can took part in six parties around the world that involved prostitutes the former i.m.f. chief has been charged with involvement in a prostitution ring off reading out of french luxury hotels. i am not satisfied with it but there's a point in time when one has just. turned the page and move on.

that's our global news breakdown for now but don't forget you can always had to our website artie dot com for the latest on all those stories and many more entertaining at this hour. the idea of freedom of speech is under threat speaking your mind can blind you into serious trouble now you are presumed guilty and must prove your innocence heard

more than the sovereign individual is how do you decide once a speech has been defined as purchasing. is a. secret indeed priests accused of sexually abusing children can get away with it literally i like to call this the geographic solution so what the bishop needs to do then he finds out that the priest is is a perpetrator is simply moves him to a different spot were the previous standards not the highest ranks of the catholic church help conceal the accused priests from the police and justice system to that and that's known as the i intend to include at tuesday's out in.

this. case both. rulings and sell you. much like recent supreme court nominee testimonies there's been a whole lot of spoiled brat and title mint on display in washington d.c. this week particularly over iran on wednesday we saw u.s. secretary of state mike pompei o take his ball and go home to the international court of justice or i.c.j. order of the united states to ease certain sanctions the united states has put on iran since walking away from the nuclear deal earlier this year around and argued that the i.c.j. the united nation's highest court that certain sanctions imposed against them by the trump regime has adversely affected the importation of humanitarian goods and

products and that coupled with backing out of the nuclear deal violates a fifty's era treaty between the two countries and while the court didn't accept all of iran's arguments they did in a preliminary ruling find that the united states must remove by means of its choosing any impediments arising from sanctions that affect humanitarian goods and services and the u.s. assurances that sanctions won't hurt humanitarian aid.
