the identities people but we do know that among those 35 people exiting the plane was. he was the head of the ukrainian branch of russia's news agency ria novosti and in ukraine he was accused of state treason and put in jail for the for the for the time of the trial he wasn't he wasn't found guilty or anything he was just put in jail to wait for these trials and he spent there more than $400.00 days and for those days the russian side was adamant that a man not found guilty is by default innocent so he should not spend that time behind bars and that what i'm saying this has been a long time coming for. a long time because because there have been so many false alarms and. it was in the works for a very very long time a very sensitive issue for both row. and ukraine and in fact just weeks before
7:04 am
today before today you will the shinseki was released from jail on bail and that was seen as a very positive sign for the relations between russia and ukraine and for all the prisoners for this particular prisoner swap finally today to happen now again we do not know what's going to happen whether or not those people those 35 russians are going to just walk out of those doors behind me or if they're going to be or if they're going to board one particular bus and they will be rolled out of these gates now of course we're hoping to tool to use to any of them in fact to get their stories as soon as possible and so i will be here on standby to bring you the latest and i mean everybody's here on the tip toes i mean when this bus passes i hope i hope that my cameraman could pan out for you just to show you some just it's just hard for the journalist here of the journalists here who have been awaiting
7:05 am
before he will be 34. russians i will be standing by here together with them to bring you all the latest here nothing each of those $35.00 russians each have a fascinating story to tell what a time it has been for them and indeed their families as they rejoin them igor thanks very much for. courts joining me know though in this year for the other side of things also a lot of happy people families on the ukrainian side artie's double court has been following not following it as much as we can of course no official statement we've been looking at live pictures just trying to basically piecemeal together what's been happening but just to confirm 35 ukrainians are back on ukrainian soil do we know much about them. well yeah we know quite a bit at this point but you know this just to go back to this moment the russian
7:06 am
human rights commissioner called it a historic moment and it definitely was one for ukraine even president. made an appearance there to meet those prisoners that were exchanged and he gave a speech he said it was a new chapter in relations between ukraine and russia but he also said that it was the 1st chapter in returning all of ukraine's prisoners who are in russia back to their home country now going back to identifying some of these prisoners that were exchanged we don't have we haven't identified all of them but it's been confirmed that one very high profile person a leg sense of who was sentenced to 20 years in prison for terrorist plotting during the during the crimean referendum in 2014 he was in fact released back he was identified coming off of the plane he served 5 years out of that 20 year sentence the russian government sentenced him for plotting to blow up bridges and governments to lay sions and things like that now there are also there's also the
7:07 am
idea that many of these ukrainians that were transferred back to kiev may have been sailors who were involved in the current strait incident that happened in november of last year now this just to give our viewers a bit of background on that this occurred in by the current straight between the black sea and the sea of azal where 3 ukrainian vessels were trying to move and into the sea and russia the russian navy basically said you need to turn back this is russian territorial water they didn't respond and the vessels were seized after that so ukrainians sailors were taken prisoner and many much speculation suggests that a lot of those prisoners if not all were. involved in this prisoner exchange we should point out as well this is happening under a relatively new ukrainian president. as a comedian a turn to politics president in this related president in t.v. show but it comes after petro poroshenko who is seen as more perhaps hawkish.
7:08 am
a lot of war weary ukrainian seem to put their vote to this new president i suppose hoping for a reset to relations or at least more stability in ukraine you know a lot of people see him as the man that at least much more of them petro poroshenko will be able to bring better relations with russia and the speech he gave at the at the reception for the prisoners seems to point in that direction in which he said that this is a new chapter of relations between russia. and ukraine and it's only the 1st in a longer dialogue about prisoners yet so as we're seeing this breaking news has just been happening within the past hour or so $35.00 ukrainians on russian prisoners exchanged to each countries they have not touched. each nation's soil a lot of stories as both our correspondents have been saying throughout the day to here we do hope to be getting some live reaction from them perhaps even their
7:09 am
families and some official statement as well all of course in the coming minutes hours throughout a day. ok let's go check in more world news this hour as we get more and more on this breaking news throughout the day but for 2 more headline stories on another big story of the day the u.s. state department has confirmed it attempted to bribe the captain of the iranian oil tanker the doria one which is up the center of a diplomatic rock in order to detain it let's go through the details of this quite fascinating itself the adrian daria one previously known as grace one was held by the u.k. in july in gibraltar it was released in august despite protests from the united states which is increasing pressure on iran it's been heading east since then was pinpointed in the eastern mediterranean region but it's tracking devices now being
7:10 am
switched off artie's danielle hawkins brings us more. if at 1st you don't succeed try and try again so keen with u.s. authorities to get their hands on a rainy and. they used everything at their disposal 1st came the stick accusing the tiger of moving the world to syria in breach of sanctions they went to the u.k. for help british marines and pounded the ship but it was passing through the strait of gibraltar the spanish foreign minister said the arrest came after a demand from the u.s. to the u.k. . but on 15th of august release the vessel it's sail into the mediterranean a few days later after being renamed from grace one to adrian daria one then came
7:11 am
the carrot we've all had one of those emails i'm writing to you with good news what might you expect a surprise not true when perhaps a huge inheritance from a long lost royal family member in africa well that's exactly the email that the ship's captain received but this wasn't the regular spam for the junk folder this came direct from the state department. this is brian hook i work for secretary of state mike pump a o. and serve as the u.s. representative for iran the offer millions of dollars for captain kumar to dock his own tanker in a us friendly port that would allow it seizure by washington after the possibly confused captain failed to reply a 2nd email hit his inbox the tone now less friendly with this money you can have any life you wish and be well off in old age if you choose not to take this easy path life will be much harder for you what lay behind this thinly veiled threat was
7:12 am
left to his imagination to ron was understandably riled having failed at piracy the us resource to outright blackmail deliver us iran's oil and receive several $1000000.00 or be sanctioned yourself sounds very similar to the oval office invitation i received a few weeks back it is becoming a pattern incredibly the state department confirmed of this unusual strategy even adding this was no one off we have conducted extensive outreach to several ship captains as well shipping companies taps and kumar meanwhile is on the u.s. naughty list hold differently the story would have ended if only captain kumar had cashed in and just aren't that good news email. just being with this story u.s. national security advisor john bolton has tweeted that the tanker has not been seen entering a syrian port we should point out but to run previously it had been any definitive
7:13 am
statement about the ship's final destination tickling. anyone who said the adrian daria one wasn't headed to syria is in denial terror and thinks it's more important to fund the murderous assad regime than provide for its own people we can talk pretty iran's not getting any sanctions relief until it stops lying and spreading terror. the fact that they try to bribe a captain of the tanker and then subsequently threaten them is extraordinary and it should be something that people in the united states. will be kept talking about day and night but there are also other issues as well bolton wants to intimidate iran and the very fact that he has failed and the supertanker is alongside the syrian shore reveals that failure
7:14 am
so he's outraged at another level he wants to make that syrian people suffer as much as possible because that's been u.s. policy for many years now and on their hand he wants to. prevent iran from carrying out trade with other countries to bullying anthrax and illegal behavior so there are multiple reasons for the u.s. behavior towards the run toward syria and towards the all independent countries but i think it's only harming the united states in the long run because the united states is increasingly seen as a rogue regime. is in a full make riot inside africa show no sign of abating in the largest city johannesburg foreign owned businesses are being looted tensions there escalate on monday the country's minister of police describe the situation in the city as
7:15 am

7:16 am
vision of the day north up was that it was a monday night the big gone by then they been. implementing a lot from a global moment the big dig between the dems to stay. across the road here is ellen who owns a hardware store and when did you ever think that you would see these kind of scenes happening so close to a business own for she won't bring through it before and do some of them. but some will move through the instant chemistry becoming anything remotely. or most of last through wonderful the and what do we do with getting the livelihood of books for families with we've read from. do you think showing your south african identity pretext to you is going to give you this week or the why what happened are you going to go look close though most of them are the only little other police in the government doing enough more good given that we're not doing enough or the norwegian government would be lonely government to go on
7:17 am
a more global good will more than once we both would lose all due to the problem it's not just foreign owned stores that were targeted here you. see a 2nd hand car dealership that was broken into and the cars say to lice now the result is the human offer by the nigerian foreign ministry for any nigerians living in this country who feel unsafe to be able to fly back home for free this is the worst spate of the violence that south africa has witnessed since 2008 police is to most adjacent some 8 people have been killed and more than 300 have been detained as we say the violence is a sad reflection on what where he is and and tenable situation. where are you from the world like your place to be in south africa for you of course the girls the people thought the good will last until no good for every move of middle liberals you're given to be given the blows and how many years and even some of the years to say you south africa your school. and now you have no business

propaganda have changed last year he openly bucked it describing himself as chief propagandist basically every country creates their own narrative story i'm not against propaganda every country does it and they have to do it to their own population and i don't necessarily think it's that awful. i would say there's a difference between propaganda and us telling people what our policy is so i don't think it was propaganda. you know my old job at the state department was what people used to joke as the chief propagandist job or journalist or 3rd dunny all those are things that washington has a selective approach to dealing with the truth. americans never a law and even when they law. it's not a lie because somehow it's. in pursuit of a higher truth and so are so stengel would never admit to admit to deceit to to

painting a false portrait remember though the worse the us does terms of foreign policy the greater the distance from ation that that emanates out of washington the u.s. never changes the u.s. is always consistent always honest always forthright and that anybody who says anything to the contrary must must be spreading disinformation in behalf of russia on one hand yes the us is being more openly propagandist on the other hand when the us does it it's not propaganda it's simply the truth and anything to the contrary is fake information ok let's just get a reminder of our breaking news this hour some pictures from within the past 60 minutes or so a major prisoner swap being completed between russia and ukraine after months of talks this is what was happening. international airports near moscow
