because there's always a small. as the u.s. media outlets claims moscow has been interfering abroad for a whole century we'll look at whether the russian meddling term could have been used for been a 1000 years ago. also this hour recovery teams in yemen will 88 bodies from the ruins of a prison bombed by the saudi led coalition with the red cross saying the number of dead likely exceeds 100. and a longer rally in support of whistleblower julian assange to celebrities joining in among them pink floyd frontman roger waters.

a very warm welcome to the program from all of us here at our teacher in moscow. this hour. barely a european trip by the u.s. officials can go by it with these days without some criticism of russia and following that tradition vice president mike pump aoe mike pence excuse me has once again warned russian interference during a visit to poland. now is the time for us to remain vigilant. about the intentions and the actions being taken by russia. as we stand together. and as we see other nato allies follow your lead president and. meet their obligations to our common defense in nato we know their efforts will fail. as a marks come as a daily beast article frames historical events going back

a 100 years as russian interference however as you have now argues why stop there there are a few legends as obscure and my dear is this what seems league as the freemasons u.f.o.'s the loch ness monster and big foot there is russian meddling and with every retelling someone and the little twist i mean who is going to disprove them the russians have been attacking us for 100 years but moscow mich still doesn't get it now it's the daily beast turns out bunch of meddling is ancient lenin who already targeted western capsule isn't and specifically britain for a long time campaign of infiltration and subversion you scared yet well you better be letting himself was a bit of a medlar says the daily beast though they do say a lot of things but with every telling as i said

a little something gets added in this case another 50 years to russian election meddling plus the 50 years that miss the secretary of state pompei you added when it was his. of course i'm the one before that and the one before that didn't stop at 2008 you can go back to the seventy's. i decided to investigate these claims and fortunately they wouldn't let me play spooky music didn't take long though to discover how old this meddling was literally here is russian octopus depicted in 2018 its tentacles reach far far back into the past same octopus seen in the 1950s there were incidents i think not the same one cited again in 1900 how many russian octopuses do you know there's only one and we'd never have known

if not for british imperial propaganda no matter how deeply buried the truth is out there and the new york city a forgotten passageways where the monk covered more evidence of russian meddling that you know the russians interfered in the us civil war sent warships to support the north abraham lincoln sue infectivity did they meddle with the americans actually welcome those warships potentially the russians not only lost the election for hillary clinton but the war for the confederate states now this is the part where the spooky music would have been really good the founding fathers were infiltrated and recruited by what would all wouldn't become the k.g.b. benjamin franklin himself 789 was elected to the russian academy of

sciences for his quote scientific contributions others say he passed on early manuscripts of the us constitution as russian handlers the proof is in your wallet look at his face on the $100.00 bill it doesn't smile and it's well known that russians. never smart it was difficult but we tracked it back a sow's and years we found russian meddling before russia even existed. anyway millennium ago the ruler of kiev and roost married his daughter to the french king and surprisingly the king died very soon and she ruled france for decades a 1000 years of russian meddling proved beyond doubt back to you daily beast let's see what you can dig up about jesus christ that is ties to the

k.g.b. . it is bodies have been pulled from the rubble of a jail in southern yemen which was bombed by the saudi led coalition according to the red cross more than 100 people are presumed dead the charity has condemned the attack as shocking the facility how some $170.00 people medics have been dispatched to the scene of what is thought to be the deadliest strike on the country this year . a few hours after the strike got me a whole lot leaner around been able to support around in hospitals around 50 people have been. told he can see 110 by the time people have been. around 20 people missing. are also lying on the. riyadh rejects the accusations and insists it took all precautions to protect civilians the coalition also claims the building was not a prison but

a storage facility for drones and missiles. this is a traditional who thought tactic and a violation of the laws of armed conflict this site was not registered with the united nations and was not on the no strike list the south and i said let me tonight the rule of the coalition warplanes work the residence in duma the warplanes flew past and drop bombs directly at the building where 170 prisoners were in custody what you are seeing now is a real disaster scene it is a crime against humanity human civil war pits healthy rebels against a multinational coalition led by riyadh 4 years of fighting have resulted in the world's worst humanitarian disaster the head of the m a delegation of the red cross told us international law may have been broken. bird a good good news is good news we have to. give people what hand we close contact so we've all said please. nice going through your

protective find compassion. national. the question of. if you really want to have a definitive conclusion we need. to cautionary measures taken by. a decent very tragic. number of. people. if their day of commemorations is being held in the southern russian town of beslan marking 15 years since the deadliest terror attack in the country's modern history at a local school it is a ceremony school children only 3 $134.00 balloons one for each victim of the massacre and the hawkins reports from best. of course the early days of september

or days of celebration the start of a new school year of a new life for many children here in beslan though their memories are etched in tragedy islamic terrorists seized over a 1000 hostages on the 1st of september 2004 holding them for 3 days without food or water before a gunfight with police and security forces on the 3rd day resulted in over 300 deaths today marks the final day of remembrance for those who lost their lives in the town of beslan a bell was rung earlier in the school symbolic of the start of the bell of course that never came 15 years ago many here today lost friends family or loved ones even more work directly involved in the events of those 3 days and even though you would you. those who are too young to remember too young to have any memories of those who have given it's also still affected many years later and yet this time by just because now your book they're going to trash reform the book.

is knowledge done your job but people get wish question would come believe it or not us guys have a ploy to get. along even if. the pleasure. you got that you're shouted out in your skies really don't push you. to just step on your persona on legend so for you mom or. dad. just i was just so you were. going to spend as much if you. did i don't know damaged i am about that didn't you just acknowledged i do try. to. impress much and i took it up to look probably oh yeah she could not climb the shift just mommy yeah you could call and then you could. write in

this summit she was built specially for the victims of the best that attack at the time the tile just couldn't cope with the sheer numbers of dead locals don't call it the cemetery this is called the city of angels headstones here bear the portraits of those who died in those tragic days portraits of children who remain forever youthful portrays of adults who remain forever young people here coming to leave flowers reese water bottles in memory of those who died hundreds of lives lost thousands of lives affected they'll never be forgotten. a u.k. rally and honor of julian assange has seen celebrities taking to the stage to voice

their support for the whistleblower among them pink floyd front man roger waters who performed his song wish you were here waters as an outspoken supporter of the wiki leaks founder. now. you. see. what's it been ousted from that fight which separates that despite an almost total need to silence on 2 days but until it's most people have jobs they talk about what's told them hey i want that high pick will come out. it's a real issue in the tech and democratic right which is so profoundly important that this song ensues someone whose only crime is to tell the truth when we come to defend putin assume she is being tortured for telling the truth about saudi government crimes and meanwhile the criminals who

got us into these i mean the rule was still. in power we heard that he was absolutely staving that terrible conditioning belmokhtar. i wish is unbelievable also joining forces is i want what he taught us i'm still make cuts off kilter to speak as he says d'arcy the richest political prisoner having recently had contact with the saudis he tells us about his state as well as giving us his thoughts on the case in shadow. so. this is not. the same. act you speak. very nicely. just. for exercise the system you say makes.

you wait. it out. while the sexing the 2 days concept might be on your usual. the atmosphere is also still its heat and anger towards the british couple met on this issue is not because it has seen plenty of trash talk imprisoning assad he is as we know scoring 7 out of 15 cents but jumping bail back 20 had a song famously sought refuge in the ecuadorian embassy in london to the south but he is off to his website which the city's classified us war logs and cables which read details about america's foreign policy on civilian casualties critics have also cry foul over the possibility of extraditing whistle blow to the u.s. with his once one charge of inspiring a government in the future and all that i mean what the u.k. will pay said to us tomorrow and so on that point out the hearing in february 2021

thing is what 18 weeks of a song just confinement might have cost the public outcry protests on fresh up on the british government continues to tail off down to some protestors in hong kong are turning to their former colonial masters for help escaping china demanding the right to live and work in the u.k. that story and more after the break.

i. so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy one sunday shouldn't let it be an arms race is on all sides very dramatic development only loosely i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical time time to sit down and tom.

welcome back iran's foreign minister has urged the e.u. to prove its commitment to the international nuclear deal and says that tehran is ready to stop the enrichment of uranium within days or even hours that comes after you ran announce plans to further reduce its compliance with the treaty starting this week tehran earlier raised its limit on uranium enrichment saying it would breach the deal to restrictions further if no one proved eager to save the accord iran's foreign minister zarif told r.t. why reaching an agreement with the e.u. is key you can see this interview in full throughout the day on archie's world apart and it's also on our website but for now here's a quick taste. not reaching anybody i'm simply talking about the realities you see all of us when we went to primary school and high school we had bullies in our class and bullies would not stop if people just look at them while they beat another student once they beat the 1st student or go to the 2nd and the 3rd and the 4th the 2 parents must know that the appetite of the united states for breaking

international law when ever and where ever it serves them really not stopped with casey purely as it has not our n.f. . unesco the climate change is to be honest with you at the end of the days not even in the interest of the united states in the long term if you have a lawless international behavior you cannot have predictability one state being unpredictable will bring other states to the state of unpredictability and then we will have chaos so it's not in anybody's interest you will not have any rule of law respected if one country starts to break them basically as a matter of habit unfortunately the europeans have not been able to put their money where their mouth is they have been stating their support for the j.c. pure way but they have not been prepared to take the risks and to invest

in order to maintain a great achievement of diplomacy i can only say that that's what they need to do how they want to do it they want to convince the americans or they want to defy the americans it's their decision i believe the americans will not be convinced unless they see a determination for the from the rest of the world to uphold principles of international law as i said a bully. appetite this simply only grow if they see the. reaction to the negotiating table as if there is a ticket to get to that to go shooting paper that's put compliance with j.c. people away. tensions remain high and hong kong where anti beijing protests are into their 14th consecutive week some of the demonstrators in the chinese territory a former british colony are now demanding the right to live and work in the u.k.

dollar quarter though has been looking at how britain's own questionable policies and hong kong seem to have been forgotten. hundreds of hong kong's protesters are shifting their focus to the british consulate demanding sole british citizenship that was denied to them under colonial rule. one right now. the british government to sign the british agreement has been pushed by the chinese government for you to keep east message i want to send to do while we are at the forefront of the global level if i can fighting against evil party which is the chinese communist party it was $997.00 that hong kong officially returned to mainland china the city's residents and initially had 2nd class citizen status in the british empire reserved exclusively for colonial subjects so of course many

were thrilled to throw off the chains of colonialism but for some nostalgia for the old union jack clearly persists both in hong kong and westminster the u.k. had obliteration so hong kong citizens before 997 and the extension of overseas citizenship which is many ways a 2nd to citizenship was a mistake and i think it's. should be corrected at a time where there are clearly tensions in hong kong the u.k. could reassure many home kong citizens that their existing recognized by the u.k. and the overvalued britain's foreign secretary felt that very same obligation it's up to the people hong kong to decide what they think should happen in terms of their own government hong kong is not part of the united kingdom but the u.k. signed an internationally binding legal agreement in 1904 that in trying to the one

country 2 systems rule in trying to the basic freedoms of the people of hong kong and we stand for square behind that agreement 4 square behind the people of hong kong and that we serious consequences if that international binding legal agreements were not to be on that yes british hong kong once an outstanding model for all who craved freedom and human rights right well not if you consider that there was no democracy there it was always ruled by a british governor directly appointed by london and as for protests forget it 981 u.k. army document shows how comfortable the government was with shooting unarmed protesters practically the stench would be talk photograph baton rounds shotgun and small arms fire small arms fire would be directed into the crowd for lethal effect shooting to kill protestors a real cornerstone of basic freedom the u.k.'s ministry of defense dismissed the

document as theoretical speculation but even if that's true with the outcry over such a document be as muted if it were from the chinese government i doubt it all kong was a british colony 450 years didn't attain it was absolutely easy to see to democracy it was from london through a governor who was appointed in london sent over to hong kong which was christian. i think he's been one of the most militant voices and straight and voices again intervention by the west in this current crisis so there was no democracy whatsoever he should put us as have noticed article memory they think that everything is great in the west and the west is a good tool beyond just as all these are not people who are seduced by the western culture western life and western liberal democracy in there is a lack of historical memory there's a lot of historical amnesia reaction of the u.k. government has always acted on principle the principle of respect for sovereignty

national sovereignty as laid out in the un charter would be to and refused to get involved other than to advice protesters to stop the in violent to stop trying to precipitate craigslist to stop trying to create a situation whereby the people's liberation army of china has no choice other than to intervene that's a wrap up of the day's top news for now but don't forget you can always find us on many of your favorite social media platforms like twitter and facebook for up to minute reports. daters things. please dear.

physicists is a sticker from the water bottle found in the stomach of the fish the brand is part of the coca-cola company which sells millions of bottles of soda every day the idea was that let's tell consumers there are the bad was there the litter bugs are throwing us away industry shouldn't be blamed for all this waste the company has long promised to reuse the plastic. that's. a special kind of just funding me. on that is the end of it for the team but for now the mountains of waste only grow

higher. well you know they were kind of adopted because we were called pirates for so long . i mean they're in the small ball next to the hard pool of ships and it's. not something you. know little self to. told fish already 90 percent of our god and all the cars are. you conscious 15 scoops 17 tons to do it several times a day with big fleets you know you get an idea for an ocean and. we have to understand we could use to just. be with them this will be used.

to the hours. i'm doing this because i want to the future world to future generations to have and enjoy the ocean we have. their. own and welcome to worlds apart in the polling born of parts famously said that there are only 2 forces that unite. fear and interest and choice between which is becoming increasingly more difficult for the european countries including france as

they are just seeing their policies in the era of trying to argue we know where it is more visible than in the rainy and nuclear issue today europeans have enough interest to overcome fear and salvage the deal with. up to discuss that i'm now joined by iran's foreign affairs minister. who is in moscow russia the 7 visit france minister it's good to talk to you again thank you very much for it's good to be here. you now on the eve of your visit to moscow your spokesman announced that you were going to discuss among other things the latest developments in the case implementation and some would say that sounds overly optimistic many people believe that these deal is dad and barry is it no it's not because i believe jason pugh it was an important accomplishment of the come see and it's too early to talk about its demise as mark twain said the news of its demise are greatly

exaggerated but unfortunately the europeans have not been able to put their money where their mouth is they have been stating their support for the j.c. pure way but they have not been prepared to take the risks and to invest in order to maintain a great achievement of diplomacy now we talk about europeans because russia and china are totally different be continue to have x. excellent relations with both countries of course russia and china are also affected by the united states and by the eagle measures i don't call them sanctions but economic terrorism why the united states against iran buzz it but the europeans have not other than making general statements in support of j.c. pure have not been prepared to invest in it now it is important for them to

implement their commitments the reason i've been to france twice and president rouhani has been talking with president mccrone and today while i'm here my deputies in paris with others discussing it with the printer fishes is to see how they can implement their own commitments it's not about renegotiating j.c. pewit it's not about revising it but it's simply about implementing their political let me ask you a question about that because of the. last couple of weeks you've been daring if not taunting the europeans to grow up and stop being subservient to the americans to respect international law. which includes formally includes the eighty's did it have any effect well i don't know because i'm not preaching anybody i'm simply talking about the realities you see all of us when we went to primary school in high school we had bullies in our class and bullies would not stop if people just

look at them were.
