top stories here on our to lieutenant commander of one of the ukrainian ships detained in the coach says he consciously ignored russia's orders to stall three ukrainian ships were fired upon and seized by russia which says they illegally entered its territorial waters yet another reckless russian escalation nothing in our opinion justifies this use of force that follows on from russia as an illegal an explosion of crimea in two thousand and thirteen the standoff was followed by true emergency sessions of the un security council where russia was roundly a huge risk of being the aggressor. despite europe's pledge to support iran amid crippling u.s. sanctions french petrochemical drawn quote styron's largest gas project so now the lucrative contract gets picked up by china. and a school in wisconsin comes under fire for failing to punished. appear to give the

nazi salute a new group photo and we put the issue up to. see a bunch of very innocent looking kids doing something stupid i think those things will be repeated and they will be basically these kids join the military and behave the certain matters that are not acceptable to. the news team here rounding up this hour's top worldwide headlines welcome to the program it's outing international. security services have issued new details regarding sunday's clash in the coach strait which escalated tensions between russia and ukraine moscow has released a video testimony of three crew members who are now in detention in russia including the lieutenant commander of one of the ukrainian ships who admits that he consciously ignored russia's orders to stop. so what i'm what the melissa boy

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 boat we had small arms and a machine gun and 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 pull the stand off took place in the coach straight which is between russia's mainland and the crimean peninsula ukraine says the ships were intercepted after they left russia's territorial waters a correspondent but i'd guess the reports on sunday's events the russian federal security service has revealed new details scored logically as to what happened on sunday in the streets of kutch 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 the church 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 and fishing vessels waiting queuing to cross through a narrow archway under a bridge so that the safety concerns there's this queues there's lines and there's a procedure in place of followed through a number of times. contrary to the un convention the russian border ships carried out and frankly aggressive actions against the vessels of the navy of the armed forces of you crazy.

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 this showdown this case took place and what russian woods is even before the reunion of crimea and russia furthermore of the russian federal security service revealed that on board the vessels of the ukrainian flotilla s.b.u. offices that is ukrainian intelligence agents so this crossing seemingly wasn't just an ordinary re stationing of naval assets but rather a special operation it seems with 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. ukraine's the security services confirm that two of their offices were on board the detained ships but didn't give any other further details meanwhile russia's president vladimir putin discussed the situation with the german chancellor angela merkel by phone and western countries have expressed serious concern over what's happened the u.n. security council held to emergency sessions one requested by russia the other by ukraine a correspondent has details so there were two emergency meetings of the u.n. security council not while the meetings were called regarding the situation in the current strait now at this point the first meeting was called by russia and western countries did not approve of the agenda items so it was not adopted the agenda was not adopted there was then a second meeting called on behalf of ukraine now the representative of russia spoke

at the first session when he spoke he accused western partners of behaving like overgrown toddlers essentially by quibbling over resolutions and not simply working to resolve the crisis furthermore he pointed out that the provocative actions of the ukraine are coming as a ukrainian presidential election approaches and he pointed out that poroshenko needs to boost his ratings up with the person person goes ratings are extremely low but the elections are not so far away so how do you hold on to power his team really needs a serious exacerbation of the situation in a war the necessary next portion of the anti russian drug so that people in the country believe that all the troubles that used to russia the second session was called on behalf of ukraine we heard from the united kingdom france poland and they rolled out a narrative that we have heard many times before about russia being supposedly an aggressor threatening the world and wanting to annex more territory what we

witnessed this weekend is yet another reckless russian escalation euphemism from russia is it legal. of crimea in two thousand and fourteen nothing in our opinion justifies this use of force because the ukrainian side violated a border in a place which even before twenty forty was russian territory you know russia must respect the full implementation of the means grim and if you're not an additional i hope that you read in the midst greenman to know perfectly there's not a single word about crimea russia wants to comics the sea of missiles. and now it surprises me turns out that we occupy the sea as well this is something new if you me for i'd like to assure you korean affair with solidarity united states will continue to stand with the people of ukraine against the russian aggression. so this could be perceived as calm for ukraine to carry out further provocation before the un security council meeting began the russian foreign ministry was asked to

comment on what it expected of the proceedings they said that they had no illusions they expected that as has happened many times before regardless of what facts they presented before the security council these facts would fall on deaf ears and the same narrative would be rolled out by western leaders and it appears that the predicts given by the russian foreign ministry has proved to be correct we spoke with russia's deputy u.n. envoy dmitri poly and he says the west's response will only encourage ukraine. i fear that after the western countries that have particular influence on ukraine are really displayed surf session up at its units at the ukrainian side might feel a little bit and bold and to engage in further provocations of this type because they haven't heard that 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 clearer it is directly linked to the prospect of elections in ukraine it is directly linked to the falling ratings of president poroshenko so it was very strange that the security council colleagues actually avoided polling calling these things by their real value. after months of rumors china's c n.p.c. oil corporation is replacing a french toast towel in iran's multi-billion dollar south pass gas project and the move might come as a surprise to some as the new bush explains. self pars is the angelina jolie of gas fields with by far the biggest reserves on the planet is the industry's star attraction yet toto's desperate bid to keep its paws on polls have been well a total failure who wins from trumpeting its own ally france his biggest bugbear

china of course china sea and b.c. has officially replaced the tile sparse but it has not started work practically talks need to be held with c. and b. c. about when it will start operations or about your pledge to stand up to terrible mr trump in gas industry lingo hot air mr michael will fight his nation's top employers unless it means shirtfront in washington and then. we are going to start a strategic trade war with the united states over iran and so i repeat very clearly we're not going to sanction counter sanction american companies in response to this subject we will not force companies to stay and that is the reality of the business life of the president of the french republic but he's not this is your of total never fear to the rescue of all people diverse as the european commission we have the duty to protect european companies so we now need to act and this is why we're

launching the process of activating the blocking statute from one thousand nine hundred six. and the one thing that blocking statute to stop us think she's hurting europe no we're very angry at you mr trump and we're just going to let our companies fail as rival regions take over investors quit iran's huge rail upgrade russia and china step in india's actually doubled purchases of iran's crude member america's diplomatic diplomat pledging to torture tehran we're going to do everything we can discourage iran hard as the british say to make to squeeze them until the pips squeak their squeaking sell and that's actually europe's top firms as they dropped by e.u. leaders so. alvey to think e.u. independence so much for europe standing up to trump. economist says that the european union is sadly unable to protect its own companies if you look at the european union by no where under jauntily jhankaar you would see that it is

basically an organisation to keep the germans maybe the russians and americans in one of these perpetrators the european businesses know that nothing will happen what the americans don't want this is. just the facts of the problem is that americans are able to blackmail one of the kind of the companies you better say oh no and build restraint and this is exactly what happens to companies float because the you the union is not able and not really true. that all the car companies. and the chinese the russians and americans of course. residents in a small community in germany have been warned not to eat their local fish due to contaminated water which they blame on a nearby base. much

on the done i'm thinking more and more about my baby people here are increasingly learning they have cancer i think that a lot of it is linked to the jet fuel this topic is sometimes raised locally but mostly effort one is scared to touch it and. it is not the news that every other person has cancer this includes me i have cancer my boss at work also has cancer it involves everyone and everything is just that not many think about it until it

involves them. the number of cancer patients hasn't changed in the last ten years the same goes with the other diseases. from the root cause you need research that would cover a much larger number of people you need a good database on diseases if the local hospital hasn't found a spike in oncology diseases that doesn't say anything about a possible connection it's not the way it's established. the problem is that there are too many risk factors that influence our bodies in the end it's very difficult to find who's the one to blame. we need to find who to blame but who will go against the americans nobody will order them to leave this topic will always be denied people covered. with americans rent apartments here and pay good money for their trustworthy tenants if they were to leave all that income with this is yeah that's an additional hit.

and according to a german government report from twenty sixteen the country spends over three hundred thirty thousand euros on cleaning just the water around the base we understand seventy five percent of that is due to be refunded by u.s. armed forces well plenty of stories are coming your way here on r.t. international on tuesday with a vote on how breaks it deal fost approaching three faces stiff resistance inside the british parliament that story and much more just.

what politicians do something. they put themselves on the line they get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and should. somehow want to. let you go right to the press this is like them up for three in the morning can't be good. i'm interested always in the water using how.

you treat your program hey welcome to the new leaders might have endorsed brooks that deal but to reason may is facing resistance on skepticism back in our own parliament and ahead of a crucial vote on december the eleventh she has a rallying to win around the many doubt has a corresponding honest answer as. many believe that the trough withdrawal agreement was the best that could be negotiated this is a brics it the delivers on the priorities of the british people and we can choose to unite and support the best deal it can be very serious. this deal that we have in view a deal that will work for the u.k. so i will take this deal back to the house of commons confident we have achieved the best deal available mr speaker this is the right deal for britain because it delivers on the democratic decision of the british people and i can say to the house with absolute certainty that there is not a better deal available the british prime minister's schedule has been jampacked

recently as she tries to save face by saving her bracks a deal and as she describes it get on with it despite being met with lots and lots of resistance back home now just this weekend she was in brussels where she saw leaders of the european union and doris her bracks the deal but now she's back in the westminster and three saying her biggest adversary at the moment which is the house of commons she was presenting the house with a statement on leaving the european union answering lots and lots of questions and for now it seems clear that m.p.'s there are not quite ready to let her off the hook easily when it comes to her bracks a deal to choose a parliament over these coming weeks is to examine this deal in detail to debate it respectfully there could be no doubt that 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. radio of vishnu. 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 this will never get through she's not going to get a majority in this house because this deal because it would leave the british people worse off that it could not be controlled or not taken back and that yeah well time is certainly tick. king and the pressure is piling up because a so called meaningful vote at the house of commons is now scheduled for december eleventh and that vote will determine whether or not the last enlists months it seems torturous negotiations to try to get some kind of deal between the u.k.

and the e.u. on the table were worth it or whether more chaos will end up in suing. georgia sources open society foundation is ceasing operations in turkey over what it describes as baseless claims that off the ankara link the billionaire to antigovernment protests staged back in twenty thirteen. there was a person who financed the terrorists in the event now he is behind bonus and who is behind him the famous hungary into soros twenty thirteen so a nationwide protest in turkey the most violent taking place in ankara's gives the park. over one hundred people were injured during that demonstration the turkish president appears convinced soros was involved it's something the billionaire

denies. there is an effort to link the open society to foundation to the give incidents in twenty thirteen these efforts are not you and they are outside reality sources open society foundation already pulled out of another country earlier this year hungary where the government accused of meddling directly in the nation's affairs meanwhile back in the country's former foreign minister yesterday yes so is the turbulence in tokyo society was easily exploited. i don't think that it is that it took to one of the activities so the activities that it conducted. it was regarded by the pro government circles. and the most important part of course they. all do claim to. be. the took place in. several years ago turkey

who was going through a turbulent period socially because muslim cleric who is living in the united states. and its activities. because in turkey and now turkey. in the syrian crisis and if there are clashes in turkey all these things may turn to a little turd isn't and for organizations who want to do something in a country such total and societies that beautiful tile grant. a group of high school students in america have avoided punishment for getting what appears to be the nazi salute in a group photo of baraboo school district in wisconsin conducted an investigation and ruled that no action could be taken due to the student's first amendment rights which protect freedom of expression we cannot know the intentions in the hearts of

those who were involved more over because of students first amendment rights the district is not in a position to punish the students for their actions in the photo taken back in may students of baraboo high school can be seen raising their right arms are some of them told the media they were just waving to their parents but not everyone was entirely convinced the image went viral and there were widespread calls for the students to be punished. so you put the issue up for debate here on r t with antiwar activist sort of yo excuse me sergio could judge a can and independent political analyst understandable when. when it comes to first amendment i mean that is a very tricky thing and as far as i'm concerned wisconsin legislative house just passed a year a year ago they passed a legislature that if you actually do any type of protest or some kind of action against the right or the neo nazis you actually get punished some kind of curious how they're perceiving that there's no consequences for doing

that kind of behavior but then at the same time they're willing to punish somebody who's willing to stand against it i definitely think it was right not to punish the students i don't even think it should have brought the first amendment into the equation because it diminishes the first amendment which has bigger fish to fry in this case i think to be dismissed as a prank so if you have an image especially photograph it's created it's it's not natural image so the question is who was the person who was taking that picture and who was the person giving basically direction to the kids to wave that way so that i mean that's i mean for me that's i think one of the most important things to take into consideration kids oh always want to do something stupid particularly in the picture i've done silly things that pictures make my face look silly or wearing something dumb that's why i had an immediate instinct to defend

these kids even though i will give them a few hours of history classes we look at their bearable con city or county general it's not a four percent white. so that kids in that county have a little exposure to other cultures diversity maybe inclusion education is not what it should be i believe these kids should get much better education not understanding of what that salute means in fact actually the history of the salute is very calm. next it goes back to roman times and it's actually the first officially known military salute so it has a long history not necessarily tied with hate all of the time it became a symbol of hate perhaps in the one nine hundred twenty s. and thirty's by this is somebody told them to wait on the ideas they did. but that also comes from a lot of exposure to the media so we see

a lot about trying to do it right in the streets we see a lot of probable ways this type of the social. social groups and social ideologies there been popping up around our country so i can also see media having an impact on that that's the program for this hour here on r.t. we are back with. nutri course tony you know.

i'm a little but i think. we're a body. or i.q. of seventy as a nation under the out of to get out of yeah i am question. you could feel that he had a chicken dad's going to say he made a move out of a little bit of that young enough to. make this manufactured consensus instead of public wealth. when they're moving closer to some project themselves. with the climate.

we can all middle of the room signals. the real names. later on. this is boom bust broadcasting around the world and covering the big world of business and commerce and finance and everything in fact you and bart chilton in washington we're so glad you're on board coming up today facebook's problem have

reached yet another level of fierce focus over the weekend as the u.k. parliament obtained copies of confidential internal papers conservative commentator steve malzberg joins us to take a look plus as bitcoin trades at just above thirty five hundred dollars about thirty seven hundred when we went to air is it point at a new bottom we'll ask taylor letterman cryptocurrency analyst at simpler trading about that and more and later there's big business news and sports argues regina dam tells us about the new global player in sports programming all that directly ahead but first we get some headlines let's now it. a french fuel fight lead to our global report today as president mccrone prepares a nationwide address over one hundred thousand protesters have marched against mr mccrone plan to increase fuel taxes this was the second weekend of actions by the protest.
