did they are in doubt seriously then it is unfortunately irreversible but i expect the culprits to take responsibility and face the consequences. of global chemical weapons watchdog the o.p.c. w. is currently holding talks on possible measures and funding that would allow it to apportion blame during its investigations the head of the russian delegation at the v o p c w though has slammed the idea and called it a political tactic artie's honest is across the story for us this is happening at a session of the o.p.c. w. where russia is in fact expressing very strong opposition to the idea of the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons being able to assign blame and point fingers outside of the usual scope that has existed until recently where they
8:13 pm
investigate the use of chemical weapons so this is something that russia says is in violation of international regulations specifically taking away the premise parag from the united nations security council which is essentially in charge of dealing and ruling on issues of war and peace here is some more detail from the russian envoy to the c.w. . we believe that the potential decision on the o.p.c. budget which according to the secretary its plan should increase by four million euros is illegitimate it's a direct outcome of the session taken in june we believe our colleagues are planning to use the money for granting power to the. to identify the guilty and we believe that decision should be blocked. all of this comes at a time when we are seeing a sort of anti russian euphoria and a wave of blame being assigned against russia this has all come up this summer where the u.k. had the initiative to put forward this idea of allowing the o.p.c.
8:14 pm
w to assign blame as part of its work and we know that eighty two countries out of one hundred ninety three members of the o p c w had supported this idea where twenty four vote against it and twenty six abstained and this russian envoy to the o.p.c. w. also pointed out that according to him the. accusations are baseless he talks about how neither the o.p.c. w nor porton down were able to assign the origin of the novacek being talked about he said that he thinks there's no doubt that porton down has previously worked and continues to work with novacek type agents he's also denied any accusations made against russia just last week trying to blame it for attempting to carry out a cyber attack at the o p c w. british m.p.'s are calling for

a medical inquiry into reports that some doctors in the u.k. have been secretly charging couples for choosing the desired sex of their child's gender selection through in vitro fertilization is legal in britain only on grounds of medical reasons the country's medical watchdog has expressed concern over these latest revelations we're confident that the vast majority of the u.k.'s food to its equinix do not recommend six election eve those who brought how they would take allegations of sex selection seriously and will investigate and in specific cases brought. according to british media couples have paid up to fourteen thousand pounds for the illegal procedure several senior doctors have allegedly set up appointments at private clinics in the u.k. for clients and then complete to the medical treatment abroad in countries like cyprus and the us. we discussed this issue with political activist kate smyth way to josephine quinta vali who is the founder of comment on reproductive ethics
8:16 pm
which focuses on ethical dilemmas in reproduction there are medical conditions which only affect boys or only affect girls and it's actually fairly standard practice in lots of places around the world for couples who have a family history of those kind of conditions to be given i.v.'s and given the opportunity to select the gender of child that is less likely to suffer from those conditions i think we would all take steps to try and make sure that children were less likely to have problems later in life in all sorts of different ways the idea of just choosing the sex of your child based on a whim i think you know i think to me it sounds horrifying but what we should be asking really is the question what kind of culture we're living in if people have a really strong feeling if people really really only want a boy should we be forcing those people to have a girl do we want to go raised in a family that really only wants a boy and in a culture that evidently values boys much more strongly by rejecting the embryo you
