influence young minds jacqueline the reports. that little sweetheart was marsha from the cartoon in the bear originally russian the series has been translated into dozens of languages and won the hearts of millions across the globe but it turns out there may be a sinister side to the enduring little girl and her protective hat trying to. now what russia has forgotten to mention there is that some cartoons are in fact evil putin propaganda yep according to a times u.k. article moshe is just another putin puppet russia is feisty even. but also a plucky she punches above her weight is not far fetched to see is putin esque but it seemed to be particularly worried about one scene in

british prime minister will head to brussels this week to try and seal the deal over breakfast in the u.k. shadow of the leave the e.u. of course on march twenty ninth next year just over four months away now after the close twenty six the referendum that left the british public bitterly divided on the issue the other twenty seven eve states are expected to sign off on the so-called divorce papers and european representatives have been given some positive vibes about it saying that the deal will finally be concluded this week. just to bridge the ministers of the u. twenty seven and the agreement or to reach last week at negotiators level and a draft draw agreement as well as on the outline of the particular correction on the future. we are in fact at that decisive moment in this process no one no one should lose sight of the process the progress that will be achieved
11:16 am
in brussels and in london. i am pretty that ministers to this report to of all the package grigory speaking this deal is fair and balanced we want an orderly exit of you came. to serve and stand behind that united. but to resume a struggling to get support back at home for is the crucial thing where that's led to a raft of government resignations and party plots to ouster from ten downing street going on as a speaker after one of the toughest weeks yet is pm may said getting rid of her there would not make the breakthrough talks any easier it's actually about what's right for the country and as far as i'm concerned i would be distracted from actually the important job in this critical week of negotiations of making sure we do get that final good deal for the country but you know a change of leadership at this point isn't going to make and against nations in need and it's not going to change the parliamentary arithmetic some of the biggest criticism of treason mazie you divorce plan comes from within your own party at
11:17 am
least twenty five conservative m.p. say that they've submitted letters of no confidence. in the prime minister instantly forty eight in needed to trigger a leadership vote generally it's taken a toll of a party the tories are slipping in the polls as bricks at supporting voters lose faith in the p.m.'s plan it seems the opposition labor party in fact take a three point lead now and ramping up pressure for a snap election may be i spoke to strategic and political analyst wrote pallor of phony says the e.u. might be backing this deal simply to move on from brakes. dealy itself is a sort of a program money deal so it says that they agree to truly be done. that meanwhile nothing was left but it is a major effect of the same urge is said that probably ever fing will be postponed up to two thousand and twenty two so what happens between now and two thousand times to use a sort of a leg or insufficient in which the decision is just to take it it looks like. if the european union leaders in particular ways hold so he's own political

exhausted not deported to endure. members of the world chemical weapons watchdog are locking horns over a plan to broaden its powers back in june a vote went to favor of allowing the o.p.c. deputy to apportion blame but russia and china are among the countries against the . opposition on the proposal made in june is that in downing the o.p.c. dubey with the functions is not meant to have would constitute an infringement on the un security council's powers the decision in front of us today and let's be very clear aims to undermine what was agreed by suggesting it was not compliant with the convention that is simply not true coming from the russian federation. i might be euphemistic and say ironic but frankly it is pungent hypocrisy. what have they done for the last few years. but to connive with their syrian ally
11:23 am
trying to bury the truth of what has happened in syria alongside the dead from the us. of chemical weapons by the assad regime the delegations present at the conference are told to vote for everything proposed by the western group and the number of times those delegations of come under psychological pressure from the same countries this is ample evidence to the extent of hypocrisy it's open lies and hostility on the part of those delegations maybe the united states side would like to ask questions about the lives of syrian people but i believe that they lie when they say they really care about victims in syria. peace could be on the rise in afghanistan as the u.s. special envoy to the country says a deal could be reached with the taliban by april next year that announcement came after talks in the capital city kabul between american representatives and the afghan government of the taliban stumbling blocks and contradictions from those
11:24 am
party to the conflict they have seen earlier peace talks fall flat the taliban said monday that no agreement has been found during the current three day meeting top american officials were a no show when the last conference was held here in moscow about it despite both the taliban and african represents coming to the table is how the conflict stands according to the top brass in the u.s. military right now. they are not losing right now i think that it's fair to say we used the term stalemate a year ago and relatively speaking it has not changed much over the last three years more than twenty eight thousand afghan police officers and soldiers have been killed according to government figures in the two decades of war of left the country scarred and affected millions not least of all children who face hidden dangers.
11:25 am
we were on our way to school early in the morning where there was an explosion i lost my leg now i'm scared about my future. there was fighting in the afternoon between ever been forces and the taliban in an unexploded bomb was left behind and we were on our way to the school it went all four of us were killed and the others will lead it. when we were healthy we used to go out and play we walked to school and to the mosque. now we're not able to go to school i would teacher comes to our house and teach since.
11:26 am
my children were in the hospital for over one month but they are still continuing their treatment at home because they are still severely injured. he said that her chief of the arab news site raju me thinks the u.s. wants to close a deal of afghanistan before other powers can influence the outcome. it is actually a better action now what i shall post to a conference ninth of november. was there so that american feels that russian is taking over iran is because over so they would like to reach an agreement in order to get rid of this problem. to reach a settlement before twentieth of april whether a presidential election will take place in afghanistan well i believe the taliban
11:27 am
will enforce their point of view they would like to rule the country they don't want any participation from others so i believe there realize that the americans are very weak and they can actually see that agenda so i believe in the end that the american administration. will listen to taliban and pull out of their troops i think it is not that he and his stick to say by spring but i think taliban will intensify their attacks and spring in particular and force that american to accept their point of view otherwise the casualties among the american need to that of afghan the army will be huge. seven twenty seven in the evening here in moscow this monday that's the way things look in so far the get out he dot com for all of our breaking stories as they happen and throughout this world to mobile device if you don't load it free if you haven't done it why not do it tonight one is kevin

11:29 am
world of politics school this list i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. i don't think the democrats are much mood to negotiate with the republicans or president so i think people are going to have to acknowledge that the united states over the next couple years is going to be consumed even more so by our internal our turtle bickering in affairs and. nobody could see coming that false confessions would be that prevalent in the spot the waste the fall the conviction. and any interrogation out there what you'll see is threat promise threat promise threat lie a lie a lie the process of interrogation is designed to put people in just that frame of mind make the most comfortable make them want to get out and don't take no for an answer don't accept their denials she said therefore i would. say on the statement
11:30 am
that i would be home by that time the next day there's a culture on accountability and police officers know that they can engage in misconduct that has nothing to do with solving a crime. hello and welcome to cross talk or all things considered i'm peter lavelle brags that and high drama the saga continues also the cia says it has high confidence they know who killed. and is at high noon for julian assange.
