4:02 pm
they said that they detected the ukrainian naval flotilla early on heading into russian territorial waters they were warned that if they intend to cross the street of kutch as they well knew as they had done previously that they should send notification of their intent to cross the street it's a busy place there's a lot of ships tankers much unman fishing vessels waiting queuing to cross through a narrow archway under a bridge and of safety concerns there's this queues there's lines and there's a procedure in place of followed through a number of times the less the ukrainians stormed on ahead than a captain himself the captain of the naval for the tele said he was aware that his orders were provoked if but they were his orders so i'm going to melissa morey commander of the navy division of the grain and military forces were answered the code straight after crossing the russian border we had visual contact with the russian border service vessels i consciously ignored their commands to stop on our
4:03 pm
boat we had small arms and a machine gun with ammunition i was aware that the action of the ukrainian vessels in because straits provoker to i was following my orders to move our ships from the port or for this to mario pool the federal security service is also in possession of information that says the provocative actions of the ukrainian fleet were ordered by the government in kiev the territorial waters in which some of these showdown in this case took place and were russian waters even before the reunion of crimea and russia furthermore the russian federal security service revealed that on board the vessels of the ukrainian flag deliver s b u offices that is ukrainian intelligence agents so this crossing. seemingly wasn't just the ordinary re stationing of naval assets but rather a special operation it seems with
4:04 pm
a mission overseen by intelligence agents if indeed the case perhaps the mission was to give the president a reason justification for the implementation of martial law as he has done. ok let's get some insight on this story now and speak to dimitri polanski he's russia's first deputy permanent representative to the united nations just to wet of us now we do have a delay of around twenty seconds or so so do bear with this please dmitri good to have you on tell us about the security council session that is just and it how did that go for you.
4:05 pm
colonial to hear me ok. so yes indeed we had. a security council session this morning. we called for this meeting because we received the information about you green from occasionally in the carriage street which was very disturbing and alarming and we decided to convene security council meeting on the item agenda and maintenance of international peace and security. but strangely enough the settlement of ours was blocked by western countries which supported the. support of the letter of ukraine which was sent a little bit later than our request. to to call the meeting on the agenda item letter of ukrainian p.r. which. they spectrally to the days back to the time when the problems of ukraine just started after them i don and we thought that these threats that we are facing
4:06 pm
now are all to give you non-black sea of sea and go straight they really merits being discussed onto the agenda item the dimensions so this was a very strange discussion usually security council members it wards. will see these drug game of agenda item but this time they decided to go to the answer and there was a procedural voting and not in our favor but still we managed to speak twice during this meeting so defect of the meeting took place my main intervention happened exactly during this meeting of the security council and explain our position towards the recent developments i specifically highlighted that this was a blunt and leads and provocation from the the part of ukraine and try to explain the reasons why it is so. to me to you explain how russia views this is
4:07 pm
a provocation and that you fear now that western countries are given ukraine a license to carry out further provocations what exactly are you worried that you try might do. you know we decide we try to concentrate on these concrete provocation we tried to ask everybody why exactly the ukraine. and ships so that previously interacted with our border guards and which passed the the coach straight without any problems the
4:08 pm
ship with the ships who know all the rules all the procedures suddenly decided to avoid them and to engage in these in these provocations so that's why we tried to ask these questions or to our fellow members and to get an answer from them and actually. i discovered that they were not very eager to discuss these concrete situation the immediately changed to the alleged and exception of crimea by my country which we of course far as they denied and i specifically mentioned that crimea was not topical security council agenda but they were discussing these concrete episodes blaming us. apriori for everything that happened and for everything that will happen i don't know requiring us to free this sea man to free the cruise. i gave the necessary explanation but this story was of course developing very very quickly and a lot of information that you have now i didn't have at the moment when we started this meeting but i fear that after the western
4:09 pm
countries that have particular influence on the ukraine really displayed session our attitude to the ukrainian side might feel a little bit emboldened to engage in further provocations of this type because they haven't heard they didn't hear during the meeting any reproaches from from western side that they did something wrong though it seems to me that the issues are slightly clear it is directly linked to the prospect of elections in ukraine it is they're actually linked to the falling ratings of president poroshenko so this is a coup this is a very clear case for me and for a lot of elite accent. a lot of experts in the web as far as i can judge so it was very strange that this. curity council colleagues actually awarded calling calling these things by their real value and of course there is a big fear that ukraine might understand the service as you put it and they as i
4:10 pm
also said as a carte blanche for further probability for actions that could in danger. not only our lesions but the situation in even black sea and in hours of sea and in in care street and dimitri doug just one last question as i have quite a big big delay. russia seems that quite a hard time in the un security council meetings do you believe that when russia makes a good argument and has facts to back these up do you believe that you know that your colleagues that a reasonable people and they will listen to the points being made and they will take your side of the situation merited it or is it being used as a as a stick to beat russia with the times.
4:11 pm
you know i don't feel disappointed that we are always saying our concerns alone not only because we really try to make zero point clear and this is also very important for public opinion for my competitors for people here in the united states for my colleagues in the security council but i really feel that a lot of my colleagues the really feel sympathy with what we do and with our position but because of their official capacity of course the country really displayed openly and while we have some you know official contacts where we have some more closed meetings the discussions more sincere more frank and some of them really to display a great degree of understanding of our motivation of our action the ask a lot of questions about the positions of ukraine so we think that we need to
4:12 pm
continue this work even though sometimes our ways me me me seem to be to be sounding alone but but that shouldn't discourage us because we know the truth is in our side and we know the real state of things so what's happening in ukraine we know the real plans of ukraine that it's quite clear from. what they do and that's why we need to do to pursue like this and to continue our work in security council to present opposition to the question this is this is a work that is not limited to one meeting it's a number of meetings it's a policy and it's really very very important for us to keep our voice loud in the security council and to present our opposition clearly and actually reach i think you have some good insights into how the security council works and things greatly appreciate your time thank you my guest dmitri polansky russia's first deputy permanent representative to the united nations thank you. a republican senator for

virginia richard black says the many u.n. members appear to be jumping to conclusions on the cat straight dispute. the united nations. is not very deliberative it's supposed to be a deliberative body but. everyone has rushed to judgment without being able to examine the facts of the situation obviously now that crimea is part of russia. russia needs to assert its sovereignty at the same time there is a two thousand and three treaty that still is in effect that allows ukraine to to trance it through this very important strait and so to some extent i think perhaps it is possible that the ukrainians were also trying to assert their rights under that treaty but the fact that the united nations jumps to conclusions
4:14 pm
without examining the facts is not encouraging but at least there is an opportunity for the claims to be presented the ukrainians were perhaps a bit reckless and perhaps. perhaps there was an intention to create a provocation i don't count that out at all we do know that the president or shango has eighty percent disapproval ratings he is up for reelection in twenty nineteen something must be done to change the narrative if he's to have a chance of reelection and if you look at it this incident changes the narrative and the declaration of martial law which he has proposed would also change the narrative so i don't get. it they disagree to undo it briggs it deal to ease the maze being back in
4:15 pm
a own parliament trying to win over skeptical and peace but she'll face a big challenge over the next few weeks to win the money down to the head of the december eleventh and insist that atheists from london. the british prime minister's schedule has been jam packed recently as she tries to save face and see her bracks a deal and as she describes it get on with it despite being met with lots and lots of resistance back home following being in brussels this weekend for the e.u. summit where she did in fact see e.u. leaders indorse her bracks a deal she's now back home in westminster and thesiger house of commons and this is where her mean adversary is out the moment because despite presenting them today with a statement on leaving the e.u. and answering their questions on hours on end it remains clear that for now m.p.'s are not showing very many signs of being ready to let her off the hook easily when
4:16 pm
it comes to this deal you choose a parliament over these coming weeks is to examine this deal in detail to debate it respectfully there could be no joe this deal would leave us with the worst of all worlds how come the prime minister expect the house to vote to put the country in such a weak position. of vision to it we have no idea where this is heading why can't people actually have the chance to have their say in a people's vote if you really trust them she would do it the prime minister on the whole house knows the mathematics of. this will never get through she's not going to get a majority in this house for this deal because it would leave the british people worse off giving up control not taking back ok. well look time is certainly ticking and the pressure is piling up as we expect a so-called meaningful vote to take place at the house of commons that date has now
4:17 pm
been set for december eleventh and this vote will show of the world really if the last. months of torture of negotiations to try to get a deal on the table have been worth it or whether or not it's more chaos is yet to come. radio host john gaunt thinks treason may face is an impossible task to get parliament's approval. i think she got a very sugar cube eight they're not going to back it so that's the ten vote vote that keeps the trees the main power of the moment out of the window which generally call one percent labor will not vote for tories both direction remain as well as in the commons will will all rejected i think should have no choice them but to resign this isn't the breaks that we've voted for no matter which side you're on and so sure originally she's got him a possible task she's going to fail in my opinion. russian
4:18 pm
chemical experts have confirmed an attack carried out on saturday night on the syrian city of aleppo did involve toxic substances dozens of victims remain in hospital some of them in a critical condition buttons are total between us like something is burning inside and my eyes are hurting while i'm with you or the hunted look of you in the morning at breakfast i looked at hammes and realized that there's something wrong with him he said that he had a stomach ache so i took him back to the hospital. well the cases draw far less attention in the international media than previous chemical attacks did you just all of takes a look at the reasons why a hospital rush oxygen masks scared and confused children pictures of an aftermath of an alleged chemical attack in hunchy who last year instantly became a catalyst for a media big bang these graphic images posted online by activists and people who live in the area killed victims many of them children struggling to breathe and
4:19 pm
children foaming at the mouth. suffering convulsions being carried in the arms of desperate parents the gag on the gasp in the frantic efforts to save lives these images from it with syria range world leaders on tuesday at the united nations calls for information and accountability in what diplomats said could be a war crime the russian government is denying any involvement in a suspected chemical attack in syria that has a lot of dozens of people dead including missing children this comes after witnesses said they saw people collapsing to the ground this time reports of a chlorine attack in aleppo. so an emergency check ambulance sirens check anxiety and uncertainty in children's eyes check media reaction was this russia has accused
4:20 pm
syrian rebel fighters of firing shells filled with chlorine gas into the city of aleppo syria and russia accused opposition fighters of carrying out a toxic gas attack so hold on what. what happened there where as outreach workers this carousel of condemnation and shaming by the world's most powerful like the united states we believe it is highly likely that attack was carried out by the assad regime. it looks a lot like this attack was done by the side regime that is truly an evil person this is an animal well the difference is aleppo is under the control of the syrian government has been for years now slowly but surely clearing out its streets of rubble trying to piece back together normality the chances that animal assad gave orders to slaughter the innocent is let's say slim hence it's worth a mention maybe but not much more i want to read to read here is that france does
4:21 pm
condemned the use of chemical weapons whatever. the uses are they don't care because the targets coming from the wrong side as it were if you check the mainstream media coverage globally it's a nonevent you know if you also check the so-called opposition media in syria course they are saying that well that it could be a plot by the regime no surprise there before how easy and convenient in two wars to instantly pin the blame on the baddest of the bad guys now when the alleged hit potentially just potentially could be ordered by your former allies or you had given out millions of dollars worth of aid yeah let's not rush to any conclusions according to the russian defense ministry dozens of people including children were
4:22 pm
taken to hospital after the attack it says the nighttime assault was carried out from an area controlled by an al-qaeda linked group in neighboring province militant commanders denied involvement though and insists they don't have chemical weapons. now the less serious foreign ministry is calling on the un to condemn and punish militants involved in the assault as well as the countries that finance them . cough a french activist in aleppo he told us about the aftermath of the attack. on our nose where. we thought a lot of people until seeing and people spoke aging pretty bad people from everywhere. every day the situation is still very bad in the law so that it has still receiving rockets is to receiving more. explosive bullets people today. it's not the first time that we can recall with them used during the battle of we just same kind of weapons but it's really hard to imagine that everything is going to start again that everything is going to happen again in the same way with the
4:23 pm
worse until now and we are grateful whatever is going to the. u.k. government funded organization which influences political and public opinion about alleged malign russian activities and reacted to it recently give its documents the trophy was posted online by anonymous hacker group last week it prompted the integrity initiative to issue a statement explains. well integrity initiative has finally replied it's taken them a while because our t. first spoke about this story last week but originally these documents were leaked at the start of the month and the statement talks about the organization itself that it's an international public program that was set up back in twenty fifteen in order to counter dissin from ation and malign influence and also the fact that it's funded by the u.k. foreign office or at least it has been for the past two years before that its money came from private grants and in relation to the leaked documents specifically the
4:24 pm
group said that it's a matter of deep regret that they were stolen take a listen to what they had to say in more detail we've not yet had the chance to analyze all of the documents so you cannot say with confidence where the they were genuine who whether they include doctored or false material there it is clear that much of the material is dated and was never used so you can see the group distancing itself from the leak don't commence that they're saying they're not sure if they're genuine they haven't had time to verify whether they're all real and they also point out that a lot of the documents contain sensitive contact details some of people that they were actually considering getting in touch with but hadn't gotten touch with the now faced with the headache of contacting these people and explaining about this data breach even though they've had essentially nothing to do with the group so clearly not very happy about this leak and just to refresh your memory in regards
4:25 pm
to the original story the hack documents have pared through the anonymous hacking website they got their hands on this trove of classified documents that they say proves that the u.k. foreign office is funding this sort of anti russia campaign and as we saw in the statement that the group says that its sole purpose is to counter this information and i. as a result inevitably that means dealing with a lot of stuff to do with russia where they claim a lot of dissent from ation comes from and just to give you an example of the sort of campaigns that the group conduct according to these leaked documents you may have heard allegations that russia has was meddling in the catalonia and independence referendum for example well that story may have been helped along by integrity initiative by this group how well
4:26 pm
a journalist after lated to the group originally posted that story after that other mainstream media organizations started talking about it as well so that for you is how the system appears to be working that is just one example and of course it's all conducted under the banner of. of saving democratic institutions preventing the spread of dissent from ation and fighting the good fight. parents in the pretty stone of this which you've been speaking of shock after discovering in the rain an asylum seeker apparently used around thirty been attending the children school by posing as a child they should have done more checks i blame the home office it was scary because you don't know who this person is it's supposed to be safe i'm ashamed for the school and the government for allowing this to happen they have both failed to protect our children the teacher should be sacked if the kids knew he's the eight
4:27 pm
years how come the school didn't know it's not right it's the children safety it's crossed the line if someone says they are fifteen you have to believe them but you don't know what they are doing there especially when they're young girls at the school. well he claimed to be fifteen years old and was suspended after pupils raise their suspicions over their classmate a student posted a snap chat picture of him in class with the comment how's their thirty year old man in our math class in our faces deportation with the home office investigating the case the man entered britain under the name students found out on his facebook profile he'd been an architecture student in iran the other that was before either moved on to germany also they discovered pictures of him with a full beard drinking beer or a student said to flush told him he was married with two children. and we got reaction to this story from stephen morris member of the english democrats party and feet from the ramattan foundation. should have been there in the first place
4:28 pm
it's a clear failure of the border services to clear failure of the education system especially when the. train supposedly highly trained border agencies allowed him to come through through the process put him into a school if there are genuine refugees out there there is a process that they have to follow they have to be screened and they have to have a look at those background checks and i'm pretty certain. the authorities will be looking into this in in more detail to see where their feelings happen the difference if you like between stephen myself is that i think immigration supporting refugees is a good think it's value to our societies in riches communities i think we're not going to silently all of the hundred we're not against asylum seekers clearly we're not against asylum sciri and we're not against immigration that's a really long time did not against us really worry is that a thirty year old man has got into
4:29 pm
a school and put those children at risk on the last report sixty five percent of those questioned a second time over there was found to be over eighteen now the equator around four hundred eight the last week or so it was four hundred eight people that's four hundred eight possibilities of a manchester let's get that into context these are people who have lied to deliberately get in the country and we don't know quite ground and there is a possibility i think if i hold at least i'm not doing their job from the line to be a refugee steve it is far fetched to be you know stretching your son we're not far from being who is lying to you trying to. get money just to get on. my style of music where you are fixed in zero point seven of our g.d.p. it's been supported for refugees are the most well know it shouldn't be. in this called. english conduit a lot of. the school was trying to do political correctness and squash it which is wrong if there's an issue re. you know watching all the international join me and
