that the claims were designed to attract maximum attention. to discuss the incident a lot has been a culture of the real incident took place back in april last year but let me tell you that the real scandal unraveled last week when the government how the press conference that actually arranged into a some kind of a high profile event and that particular press conference of the defense minister accused of russian citizens of an attempted cyber attack on the organization for the proclamation of chemical weapons the minister even had a name for what happened back in april and it cooled in a.g.r. you operation well if you have been following the news in the past couple of months well you already know that g r u has become some kind of a bogey word to the west all the thirteenth of april this year and me for a day carry it out an operation to disrupt the. operation targeting the

organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons b. c w. there was nothing secret about the visit by the russian technical experts it was a completely transparent and routine business visit well right after that particular incident the russian foreign ministry actually published a statement with the fool explanation of what happened let me just give you some details from that statement now of the ministry explicitly said that there was nothing extraordinary that the russian delegation checked in at the ameri out hotel which is located very close to the o.p.c. w had quarters the statement the ministry statement said that the hotel has been used by the russian delegations for decades as it is located just five hundred five hundred meters away from the russian embassy and that also explains the fact why

there were so many russian cars parked outside also it was mentioned and that statement that the dutch side was very well aware of all these facts presented in that statement but still all has been portrayed as something from a spine movie really now as you mentioned this has all been going on since april was there any reaction back then well back then actually there was no reaction from any side the russian foreign minister sergey lavrov even said today that back then it all looked like a misunderstanding. russians that were explored from the limbs weren't given any explanations or any opportunity to contact their representatives in or embassy in the netherlands and were to leave it really looked like a misunderstanding especially given the back when there were no protests. in moscow nor in the hague again the russian foreign affairs minister sergei lavrov so. dad

the situation surrounding the so-called russian spies and the netherlands is a deceptive and i knew her and that the story was made public especially i had a needle need thing between minister is so that the timing is not at all accidental . mixed martial arts star committee of has just returned home to a hero's welcome in russia's republic of dagestan after beating qana greg in las vegas in the fight of the year these are latest pictures for you from the angy stadium in my hand where he showed off his title boat cheering crowds thousands of devoted fans gathered to meet the champ who holds the longest on beaten court in tottenham in history our reporter danny armstrong was there. we're here to see every know where thousands of thousands of fans have gathered to see their hero of the year see a lightweight champion of course at that fantastic victory over kind of a great weekend going by fourth round technical submission by really naked choke

jory not fight here. thousands and thousands of fans just as they're here inside the stadium we're inside the movie theaters restaurants wherever was showing a live broadcast they were absolutely crazy when he was announced that we don't know what happened in the uk it's a good we're here. just as there was joy to fight there's a party atmosphere. happy but let's not forget the first russian fighter to win a year and he defended the weekend in the best way possible. the fight ended in scandal when hubby sparked a huge brawl after limping to get him to confront promised coach taunting him one is also in trouble after a video emerged that showed him punching her teammates father and coach who met him at the airport gave his reaction to the effects. i. couldn't see you in a scale from one to five the fight was for close but his jump out of the article.

cannot be assessed in any way. it's simply that the discipline must come first i think i should punch him from the right or the left straight to the airport and say what did we teach you. tactically the fight conforms to what we expected in the first round in the very first minute we managed to control mcgregor to pin him impose the fight speed that worked him out in the second round we managed to carry out that plan. a u.n. report notes an appalling increase in the number of civilian casualties in afghanistan victims from bombings using improvised explosive devices or i e d's have risen twenty one percent in just the last year deaths from suicide attacks there are even worse up forty six percent the report shares the story of a teenager injured in one such attack i was taking part in a cricket match at the time after the game some of the guests were to give speeches

but before those got underway i heard an explosion and saw smoke i saw my blood and realize i've been injured i started running there was a second explosion and i fell to the ground and lost consciousness it's inhuman to attack players of the game. seventeen years since the start of the u.s. invasion of afghanistan despite the war the taliban has only increased its influence now controls almost half the country. on my orders the united states military has begun strikes against al qaeda terrorist training camps and military installations of the taliban regime and afghanistan.

caliban willing to come to the negotiating table there's no talking to the taliban we don't want to talk to the taliban and the only path to peace and political legitimacy for them is through a negotiated settlement the taliban trembles as a fear of. getting personally picked up from the taliban side even point before the calls from protect their choices are to reconcile to live in irrelevance for doc. the director of the u. case crisis research institute says washington doesn't want to admit defeat in a failed invasion. well we're seeing the radicalization of afghanistan on almost the syrian model if you like ironically as the civil war in syria has wound down

there's been an increase in violence in afghanistan and now it's probably the most violent conflict in the world at the moment the use of these kinds of attacks is way to both spectacular was also very unsettling because what it shows that the afghan government and its allies the americans and british and so on can't really control the situations of britain and america from afghanistan recently through syria and libya and should have shown we're very good at destroying things smashing up our own but we don't we don't do reconstruction any more just look at the fate of mosul in iraq or rock or in the divided councils in washington i think probably trump would like to disengage from any of these wars which are costly both money and men for the americans and not particularly successful on the other hand the pentagon doesn't want to admit defeat and the taliban of course since in that perhaps it's getting close to the victory on its turfs doesn't feel the need to talk to the americans but the taliban also may feel that talking to russia talking to the neighbors were more scope will help to create a situation where. a post-war settlement in afghanistan will be acceptable to the
