sunday's clash in the coach strait the incidents brought russia and ukraine close to conflict the commander of one of the ukrainian ships claims he consciously ignored russia's orders to stop. i'm with the command of the navy division of the grain and military forces were ends of 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 with ammunition i was aware that the action of the ukrainian vessels in the code straits provoke it if i was following my orders to move our ships from the portal for this to a miracle the standoff took place in the current strait which lies between the russian mainland and the crimean peninsula ukraine says its ships were intercepted after they left russia's territorial waters the russian foreign minister has discussed the situation with his french counterpart today in paris and we will hear

from our correspondent about that meeting shortly but first more our galaxy of has the latest on the fate of the captured ukrainian sailors. it is charging twelve of the lie say list twelve of the twenty four detained ukrainian navy personnel charging them with illegally crossing russian borders the other is the other twelve they'll be charged tomorrow i believe but so far what we what we know is a broad the ukrainian flotilla were to counter the espionage s.b.u. agents that the f.s.b. believes was directing raising these provocative acts and they believe it was ordered by the highest echelons of ukraine's government. contrary to the un convention on russian border ships carried out today frankly

aggressive action against the vessels of the navy of the armed forces of ukraine. the ukrainians though adamant they say that they did file a notification something the russian side says never happened that they received no notification of intent to pass through the strait of kutch just to make clear the strait of kutch is an exclusively russian territory so international shipping including ukrainian shipping can pass through the odd way but in the interests of security and safety because the archways very small and there's a lot of traffic going through there's a queue system whereby ships a guy the day in and out according to their position in the queue the ukrainians

who say that they did file a notification they said the this was an act of war carried out by the russian federation they use that to justify establishing my. in ukraine take a lover of the russian foreign minister currently in paris i'm eating with his counterparts what did he have to say about the standoff but let's talk about first some of the international reaction to that incident in the sea we've got reaction from the u.s. state security department saying that it condemns what it's describing as being this aggressive russian action that's going on to say that it's calling for both parties exercise restraint and to abide by international obligations canada also saying that it condemns russian aggression towards ukraine and it's called on russia to deescalate this situation it's called for russia to release those vessels that were captured and all of those reactions come as you mentioned

that the russian foreign minister has been meeting his french counterpart in paris where this issue is high on the agenda and was discussed the french foreign minister said that he wanted both sides to cool down to ensure that there was no escalation of tensions in the region and said ok love of the russian foreign minister talked about the incident talked about the international reaction but he stood firm and said that this was a provocation by ukraine. i don't see any need to. create a side and his partners in europe are interested in not having such incidents ukrainian allies should send kiev strong signals so that such provocations never happen again on a practical level border authorities on both sides could have discussed steady tenant counties if the ukrainian so i didn't understand something although they used the existing procedures back in september. there were two meetings cooled at the u.n.

security council one by kiev and one boy moscow the russian meeting was not adopted by russia's representative went on to the. western allies reacting like overgrown toddlers and suggested that reaction by ukraine this action was actually related to presidential elections which will take place next year. the ukrainian meeting which was supported by western allies the discussion there was about what they said was russian aggression russia decided to prevent passage of the ukrainian ships rammed them and then opened fire on them yesterday's action follows months of russian harassment of international shipping in a series of nothing in our opinion justifies this use of force russia must immediately cease its unlawful conduct russia's actions must stop immediately

a lot of aggressive comments in regards to russian condemnation of russia's action coming from members of the international community but russia stands firm as does its foreign minister here in a visit in paris saying the actions were a provocation by ukraine and russia acted accordingly. after months of rumors has been confirmed a chinese feel giantess to replace france's totalitarian runs multi-billion dollar southpaws gas project and the bush explains the move might come as a surprise to some. self pars is the angelina jolie of gas fields with by far the biggest reserves on the planet it's the industry's star attraction yet 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 insults parts but it has not started work

practically talks need to be held with c. and b. c. about when it will start operations what 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 or 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 the c.e.o. of total never fear you both you cut 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. any one thing that blocking statute to

stop us sanctions hurting europe no we're very angry at you mr trump and we're just going to let our companies fail as royal regions take over german italian investors quit iran's huge rail upgrade russia and china step in india's actually doubled purchases of iran's crude member america's least diplomatic diplomat pledging to torture tehran we're going to do everything we can the squeeze iran hard as the british say to make to squeeze them until the pips squeak their squeaking cell that's actually europe's top firms as they dropped by e.u. leaders so. the thing is independence so much for europe standing up to trump. well economist alcohol now told us the european union is unable to protect its own companies if you look at the union. with. john carr you see that it's basically an organisation. maybe the

russians out. in. the european business there's no nothing will happen. on one this is. just the facts of the problem is that americans are able to blackmail you know one of the kind of the companies you better say oh and build resistance and this is exactly what happens the companies pull out because the e.u. is not able and not really to protect their own companies. people living in a small community in germany have been warned not to eat the local fish due to toxic water the pollution has been blamed on a nearby us. i'm

. not ashamed of the un charter and 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 most of the effort one is scared to touch it and wounded us is not values that every other person has cancer when this includes me i have cancer my boss at work also has cancer and it involves every once and every year is just that not many think about it and he was involved in. the number

of cancer patients hasn't changed in the last ten years the same goes with the other diseases constantly on the rugosa course legit risks 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 from the spike in oncology to these days 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 coverage i've seen it all but i reckon friends apartments here and pay good money for the trust where the tenants if they were to leave for that income would disappear. that's an additional. thanks to it thank.

you and according to a german government report from two thousand and sixteen the country spends more than three hundred thirty thousand euros cleaning the water around the base seventy five percent of the cost will be were funded by the us armed forces so we've asked the american side for comments on the issue we bring you any response as soon as we get it now still to come in the program america's first amendment comes under fire that's after students in the u.s. escape punishment for allegedly doing the nasty salute that's coming up after the break. thanks. what holds if you show me to. put themselves on the line. to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president and you. want to be rich. but you going to be

close this is what the four three of the four can be good. interested always in the why. there should be. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy from day shouldn't let it be an arms race is on often spearing dramatic development only personally i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and talk. and.

welcome back now a group of high school students in the us have avoided punishments for giving what appeared to be a nazi salute and a group photo and investigation ruled 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 from baraboo high school can be seen raising their right arms some of them told the media they were simply waving to their parents but not everyone was convinced the image went viral and there were widespread coals for action so we put the issue for debate. 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 the 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 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 the baraboo khan city or county in general it's not a four percent white. so the kids in that county have a little exposure to other cultures that versity maybe inclusion education is not what it should be i believe these kids should get much better education or understanding of what that salute means in fact actually the history of the salute is very complex it goes back to roman times and it's actually the first visually known military salute so it has a long history not necessarily tied with heat of the time it became

a symbol of hate perhaps in the one nine hundred twenty s. and thirty's i just as somebody told them to wait and the ideas they did there's a date 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 proud boys but this type of social. social groups and social ideologies they're been popping up around our country so i can also see media having an impact on that. the british prime minister has just two weeks to convince and brecht to plan with the e.u. is the only way forward to parliament although to the divorce deal on december eleventh that many believe to resume a faces a mission impossible to win around the doubters and as i say a check and a has more now from london. i firmly believe that the draft withdrawal agreement was the best that could be negotiated this is a brix it the delivers on the priorities of the british people and we can choose to

unite to support the best deal that can be negotiated this deal that we have in view a deal that will work for the u.k. so i will take this deal 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 a 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 are going to use 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 yeah 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 of the whole house knows the mathematics this will never get. she's not going to get a majority in this house for this do you because it would leave the british people

worse off than just giving up control not taking back. well time is certainly ticking 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 lists months it seems of a 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. in other news now russian prosecutors have asked the u.k. and other countries for help in bringing to justice the problem is kremlin critic bill browder is a british finance either suspected by the russian or parties of numerous crimes the focus this time is on his alleged money laundering with more details his medina caution about. it seems the investigation as indeed in full swing as the recent an ounce meant follows the decision that was made by the russian prosecution office to

open a new criminal case against william browder of the british based finance he had a huge business here in russia back in the ninety's and two thousand he was charged with nine years in prison in the percent for tax fraud and now russia has opened up a new case an organized crime case against him russian prosecutors plan to add mr broader to international wanted lists and also seize his assets abroad the investigation believes that the illegal activities he has organized groups brought to several countries in some documents remote. but we won't just reach out to britain because the evidence points to the criminal groups next to that in many countries the u.s. the baltic countries and all those william browder is also under the investigation radar over the deaths of seven game who was his lawyer and top tax advisor russia

considered him to be involved in mr browder is criminal activities he was arrested and died and pretrial detention. became an international scandal with william browder accusing russian officials of killing him and saying that all the accusations against him were politically montt to vait it he used it he has a case of back in two thousand and twelve to lobby the so-called mug act sanctioning russian officials implicated in corruption and for alleged violations of human rights and now russian prosecutors are basically stepping out was a mere zero accusations and saying that they have enough to prove that game of need ski was poisoned by talk the chemicals on browder is orders expose. mortem tests show that there were symptoms of chronic poisoning with the toxic water soluble elimimian compound taken orally but there has never been full scale

research into such substances in russia but over dozens of years texaco logical research into these compounds has been conducted especially by the u.s. france and italy and while moscow plans to seek a broader is x. tradition where yet to see whether there is going to be any reaction coming from the west on the recent russian calls for cooperation. but if you have something you'd like to say would love to hear it so do get in touch by following us on social media and even all your comments that join us again at the top of the hour for the latest headlines over here. when lawmakers manufacture consent instinctive public wealth. when the

ruling closest to protect themselves. when the crime and larry go around listen to the woman was told. to ignore middle of the room signals. i mean real news is really. new to course tony. i'm a little but i think it's ended up by one local news we're buddies. one . of and this.

puts them to a little more of couric it's funny as a nation to know that i will move to get out of the i am question. you could feel that he had a chickened out. a few may have to move on to follow the lead young enough but otoh before out of the. show it's seemed wrong all right old quotes just don't hold. any old belief just to shape out disdainfully comes to advocate and in games from an equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground.

greetings and salutation we are all under surveillance hawk watchers make no mistake about it from our smartphones to our alexa's and series we are being watched monitored categorized and predicted by both governments and the private tech companies and as our dependence on technologies latest new wizardry and gadgetry grows so does the surveillance for some the surveillance of us is all about the profits the bottom line that's the game plan behind recent google and facebook patents in fact google was looking to not only develop technology that would essentially data mining you in your home for better marketing services but it

also wants to help you raise your children yes the atlantic reports that another google patent proposes a smart home system that would help or run the household using sensors and cameras to restrict kids' behavior parents could program into but a device to know if it overhears powell language from your children scan internet uses premature objectional cut or objectionable content or use occupancy sensors to determine if certain areas of the house are being accessed while they're gone for example a liquor cabinet welcome ladies and gentlemen to the fun fabulous world of the i parent but it's not just all about big brother for fun and profit it's also big brother for future citizenship and employment the intercept is reporting that a c. global risk a startup for a startup founded in two thousand and sixteen claims to be able to determine your level of risk as an employee or an aside. i'm speaker based not on what you say but

on how you say it yes the company claims that its remote risk assessment technology has the ability to determine if you're a good actor or a bad actor by simply measuring the characteristics of your voice after answering ten minutes of yes and no questions so before we give up our parenting skills and our future employment and citizenship to the gods of modern technology i think we'd better take a step back from the surveillance the bits and start watching the honks. it looks like. it's with. the buttocks if you. like you know that i got. this.

because i.
