as they do down on earth in a couple of minutes that capsule is going to come out of the dark because the casing around the nose in which the capsule sets off and say sunlight will stream through that window i still see light for the 1st time in several hours and then the next big moment is around 9 minutes off to launch where hopefully they'll get into the right orbit that last engine will cut out and they'll be on their way to the i asked us they're going to orbit around 4 times and that's going to take about 6 hours before they enter it's exactly also at that night minute point that for the fust time that going to feel microgravity which is of course the famous feeling of weightlessness in space so what are they going to do once the up that well they're due to come down in march 2020 and they have got to get on with not only have they got to conduct over $300.00 experiments with a focus on astronauts health problems with vision that also have several planned

space walks and this is really all in preparation or a contribution to future missions well both to the moon and 2024 but after that potentially 2 mas so that we have the 100 and 44th launch of a star use rocket into space expedition 61 on the way to its new home the i assess 400 kilometers above the sky joining a long and prestigious history and space exploration it's been almost 60 years since if it caused the car and of course became the 1st man to ever fly in space and here we are decades on still exploring still innovating and still give the cliche reaching for the stars. indeed stunning pictures of the sure privilege to see it happen all alive quite a ride for the next 6 hours as they prepared to dock on the. taylor lived. from the

plains of kazakhstan thinking. ok one minute past 5 pm here in moscow that's more of these big news stories the u.s. house speaker nancy pelosi has opened a formal impeachment inquiry into donald trump's alleged abuse of presidential powers during a july phone call with ukraine's leader. the actions of the trump presidency revealing dishonorable fact of the president's betrayal of his oath of office betrayal of our national security and the trail of the integrity of our election look it's just a continuation of the it just gets worse we'll show you a little history if she does that they all say that's a positive but really from the election how can you do this if you haven't even. maria has been following the developments she joined me a little earlier in the studio to break down the case. these new allegations will be added to what the 6 house committees are already investigating about trump and

if they did issue a committee decides that base time their research evidence enough for an impeachment they will be a democrat controlled house of representatives and democrats a known for supporting any impeachment idea so they are strongly in favor of it so we can say that it is highly likely that donald trump will be impeached but you have to remember that impeaching the president does not mean removing the president from the office for all that the senate holds a special trial to convict or acquit the president and. to majority is needed. to be done and we know that the senate is currently controlled by the republicans. that they will go against trump but even before that like senate majority leader it could just refuse to have a trial and interesting fact is that the u.s. history only 2 presidents half the peached one resigned under preachment. threats and no one has been removed from office what's that recent case we're

talking about here well the recent case is in fact about donald trump allegedly doing some shady things with a foreign leader there is a classified complaint of prominent teligent community a whistleblower whose and identity hasn't been revealed details unknown but it is about a phone call between donald trump and the ukrainian leader vladimir selenski they had july and allegedly during that conversation with donald trump more than once. to launch an investigation into former vice president joe biden and his son's business in ukraine and it was happening at the time when the donald trump administration was withholding the military aid for ukraine earlier approved by congress and this is why some politicians and journalists put it as if trump is accused of threatening the ukrainian leader of holding millions of dollars in. for ukraine unless they dig up some dirt on the political opponent we have here we were

told we could joe biden who may be going up against him in 2020 for the white house joe biden said and ukraine right trump claims that when joe biden was vice president he pressured ukraine to fire their top prosecutor because that gentleman was investigating a ukrainian kompany that biden's son was a board member of course if this is the case this is a power abuse case but at this point these are just claims the long term denied all their big ations he admitted that there was a phone call between him and mr selenski and acknowledge that they discussed joe biden and his son's business and ukraine and some alleged corruption stories they were involved in but he described it as a perfect call and an appropriate one the interim also admitted that he blocked military aid for ukraine but explained that by fear is that europe was not contributing and by the way later it was unfreezing the reaction from democrats and

republicans was quite predictable no one looked surprised but in their own way the president does not comply with such a question the congress continues to obstruct congress and flaunt the law. will leave congress should mark you no choice but to shooting fish in particular incident shows that the president clearly thinks he's above the law now he's admitted to using his office to snow the country to 2020 i fully support the impeachment inquiry they have been investigating this president before he even got elected they have voted 3 times on impeachment on this floor twice they voted before one word the mall report came back what she said today made no difference of what's been going on the house democrats have got impeachment fever. the only cure is going to be reelected the president in the 2020 alexion they want to continue this which i try to teach the president because they don't agree with the results

of the 2016 election this is a very complicated case allegations are very strong but i think this is very important not to fall into any like speculation mode until at least we see the transcript of that phone conversation between trump and later ms umansky and we know that they're american leader agreed to do that. while talking about vladimir zelinsky the ukrainian president gave a light hearted reply when asked whether he had indeed been put under pressure by cultural. and then you. know men in. the in on the men and these men to meet senior woman she's the. former us that much jim just tristen political commentator joan william ludden gave us their views on the case. i don't think the republicans in the senate would have just called for something and taken a hostile position to the president i mean look i held office 14 years i've had

these conversations there was was definitely back channel discussions they're not going to do something to embarrass the president especially something that that is so groundbreaking is that we don't have whistleblowers that were listening in on conversations that the president made with foreign leaders they just released that those discussions that is that is unprecedented lisa in my political lifetime i've never seen that kind of pressure we have what's called you know separation of powers congress has their powers the president has his powers the courts have their powers and to force the president to release a private discussion. and i understand the president is supposed to have some latitude to negotiate with people these are negotiating discussions they don't have the force of law but i think they realize that unless they basically because much

disclosure as possible they're going to have even more problems with some of the republicans and remember that's where their focus they need to i forget the exact number of 12 or 15 republicans in the senate did not to defect to convict the president if it were as i believe when he was impeached i think that's really where their focus is so they're going want to show look we have nothing to hide here the president didn't do anything wrong and then they will argue over whether simply raising the question $100.00 biden is itself a defense or that there had to be something like a quid pro quo. sort of reminds me of what all of tribes defenders kept saying there was no collusion there was no collusion but at the same time it became established a fact for everybody that the russians tried to interfere in our election i think that's sort of what we're going on here is that there was no quid pro quo yeah but you sought the help of a foreign government that should be enough to get rid of you. get another big story to bring you up to date on the f.b.i. arrested on army soldier who allegedly planned to bomb a news network and sussan into

a presidential candidate but the arrest has also uncovered a wider plot to join a notorious ukrainian ultra nationalist group fighting in eastern ukraine on this dole of quarter reports he's far from the only american joining the ranks of ukrainian neo nazis. planning a terror attack preparing to murder and tea for members this isn't a movie plot it's the allegations that recently landed jarrett william smith in an f.b.i. cell and authorities say his plans were only confined to the us of a smith had spoken about his desire to travel to ukraine to fight with the ukraine based violent far right paramilitary group as of battalion why ukraine well it's a hotbed for the far right and white supremacy which have a big influence in the country's military the as all battalion for example its insignia features 2 nazi era symbols still widely used by neo nazi groups.

smith was dead set on joining up with as of and it's not just him reports say some of his collaborators were already fighting with another neo nazi group called right sector it seems kiev has a poll for americans on the far right remember charlottesville. for members of a far right group involved in that riot were arrested and lo and behold they too had a fixation on the eyes of battalion they even traveled to europe and met one of the battalions leaders with so many neo nazis in the us you would think washington

would unambiguously oppose their growth but that's just not the case at 1st in 2015 congress unanimously voted against military aid to the neo nazi as of battalion i am grateful that the house of representatives. unanimously passed my amendments last night to ensure that our military does not train members of the repulsive neo nazi azoff but talian but just one year later washington changed its mind and all of the sudden pictures began surfacing on social media of as of and u.s. soldiers striking poses together and makes you wonder if the u.s. even thinks nazi ideology is a threat let alone something negative frankly you now are betting screens for human rights violations not for ideology neo nazis you know can join the us army to looks like the us army will take anyone these days as long as they hate the people washington wants them to hate in this case given the race civ and the russian.

dominated the united states floor at least a decade if not more it isn't surprising that there would be people who were eager to join the military who. are crazy with. russia as i look around leaders and when you have a volunteer. military as as the us does it does attract. not necessarily very good people it also attracts people who subscribe to dangerous etiology there should be a bit gross as to prevent people who have these dangerous goes however. probably the us military simply doesn't happen but the process there is so eager to get as many recruits as possible that they wave almost everyone in we know

nationalist groups in ukraine have also been in cold casing children with extreme views here is some footage filmed by ortiz video agency ripley. it is not interesting for children to sit still and just listen that's why they play war games. if you like. if. what you. want to tell them the real story is what the ukrainian. people who fought for its.

politicians and journalists around the world are still picking over the speech of 16 year old climate activists gretta to the u.n. climate summit while she has been widely praised for her address there are those who say she's leading a cult for the younger generation right goes the of takes a look at the thin line between octaves them and fanaticism. the thing with climate change is it's called deligated we don't fully understand it ourselves we know it's happening we know some of the reasons but it's all tenuous and the guys who have the best grasp of it scientists and always easy to understand but that's why mother nature gave us climate change activists no need for a good meteorology degree there.

are many activists it isn't about science or facts policy or debate it's faith belief in something greater. something they don't necessarily understand caught explain and wound comprehend like the judeo christian religion and the world is going to end in 12 years if we don't address climate change we face catastrophe and crisis on this planet climate change but the is not something that we have to prepare for it is something that is here you know there's a word for that the in a feeling that the world is about to end that armageddon is around the corner it's called eschatology and it formed the basis of early christian dogma but the day of the lord will come as a thief in the night in which the heavens will pass away with

a great noise and the elements will melt with fervent heat both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up we should be grateful to climate change activists trying to save our unworthy polluted souls save us from judgment day and as with any faith they have a prophet for that you need a college education jesus didn't have a university degree now the lord of climate stability has sent us his daughter we are not in school today. and this time we are not alone we have some adults one i work today either. the the and why because this is an emergency our house is on fire faith is for everyone the rich and the poor

all genders races and ages this is a hooley crusade and anyone old enough to hold a protest sign or throw a rock concert of the holy spirit. of the atmosphere. brings a tear to. it's exactly like the crusade of the year 1212 thousands of european children joined up to liberate the holy land of course none of them got there many died along the way but c'mon it's kids doing stuff and spies everybody plus it makes the heretics look bad oh yeah like with any were legit there are heretics

those who refuse to acknowledge god or whatever you believe in they have a name in this faith climate change deniers there's no middle ground either if you're a skeptic you are a denial and climate change deniers a dirty trashy folk the sort who are going to roast in the hell where the lights stay on even when nobody's home climate change deniers are a danger to our security the gloves are off predatory climate deniers are a threat to our children the depravity of climate change denial it sure looks like climate change is the new 21st century dogma overthe called going through to you we in the media we want to save your soul and if you already take my hand we're going to church. online church just open your internet browser and go to

n.b.c. dot com confess there confess my children confess your sins cleanse your polluted souls seriously they've got a climate can. page now tell me this isn't the full blown religion. there is turbulence in toy you phil friends take same play time with movie stereotypes girls on boys toys sensible social engineering. or stories break. the world is driven by shaped.

thing. we. ask. you know world's big partners. and conspirators it's time to wake up to dig deeper to hit the stories that mainstream media refuses to tell more than ever we need to be smart we need to stop slamming the door on the shouting past each other it's time for critical thinking it's time to fight for the middle for the truth the time is now we're watching closely watching the hawks.

with our to international news just coming in the white house released the transcript of 8 july phone call between president donald trump and ukraine's leader vladimir zelinsky in fact the transcript has just been handed to me by some journalists in the newsroom i've been looking through it just for a few moments it shows that don't trump urged his ukrainian counterpart to investigate the business dealings of democratic presidential candidate joe biden and his son some water he recommended close cooperation with attorney general william barr to quote get to the bottom of it and there is some more interesting. points on this because the release comes just a day after the u.s. host speaker nancy pelosi announced the formal in peach mint in choir we know one

of the main aspects of the 2 is that nancy pelosi was saying that donald trump had threatened to stop hundreds of millions of dollars up to $400000000.00 of military aid going to ukraine going through this document doubt has not been mentioned so whether or not that is a blow to the democrats hope of impeaching the u.s. president we will have to wait and see but that was one of the main points they were hiding their impeachment investigation on not being spoken about i'm just going through the pages and pages of it's here we are seeing say talks between. the 2 presidents joe biden who may be challenging donald trump for the white house in 2020 his son was involved with ukrainian company that was an investigation into wrongdoing with the company it's been said that joe biden wanted to stop an investigation into the company so that is what the main aspect of

the conversation is about a lot of talk about european countries not helping ukraine as well as by donald trump so we'll get more of this reaction throughout the hours in deede ahead just to see them the very main points of. ok let's move on just for france has a new target in the bottle against sexism children's toys ministers are making moves to mix things up so that money factor is retailers don't automatically push doles for girls and cars for boys a new agreement signed between the french government and tory makers hopes to attract more girls toward science and it also suggests that money advertisers should remove certain color schemes unbelievably they say the aim is to broaden children's among generations so that they're not influenced by stereotypes are as

they grow up where looking to work in the creation of the talisa and also how they are represented in advertisement and the way their assault fighting discrimination later on requires action right from the very 1st days. from being seen as a welcome move on broadening young minds to claims of gender engineering here's how the guidelines went on when we discussed it on the program. it's really good because they want to put an end to gender death toll is they want to give the freedom to children to choose whatever they want to so we're not forcing boys to play with dolls if they don't want to of course and girls again they can play with adult all and then they can play with other stuff are related to too in a computer science made in math or other things that actually will be an incentive to women to truth are the subjects in university a psychology professor in cambridge university simon baron cohen has shown that as

early as several days after birth female babies show an interest in faces whereas male babies typically show an interest in mechanical items so there's some hard wiring there the idea that somehow you can change society by but by by forcing boys to play with dolls and and girls play with trucks is is as is an absolute it's ludicrous. her stories there for this hour but next on cross talk peter us the question do democrats have any other policy then we don't like donald trump in their quest to recapture the white house in 2020 that's ahead moments.

as a tense situation in venezuela is still all over the news the problem in venezuela is not that socialism has been poorly implemented but that socialism has been faithfully implemented for inside venezuela things move different we're going to announce sanctions against petroleum to venezuela associate the famous will that have a son of a moment to. get out of that. battle so on the path to the magic of the moment the focus of the who story isn't new makes him cold in henry kissinger to tell him that he would not be tolerated that in latin america an alternative economic and social system could take hold and therefore the policy would be to make the chilean economy scream so wants to make the economy of venezuela screed.

what holds us in studio something to. put themselves on the line to get accepted or rejected. so when you want to be president. or somehow want to listen. to the right to be cross it's like them before 3 in the morning can't be good that i'm interested always in the wives about how the. question. is reduced. or he's like.

oh. scissors let's see. hello and welcome to cross talk we're all things considered i'm peter lavelle the democrats want to recapture the white house in a bad way their hatred of trump with the help of the lip. mainstream media has

witnessed presidential candidates say some of the most extraordinary things but there is nothing extraordinary about their hatred of the president the question is do they have ideas to win in 2020. across talking democrats i'm joined by my guest kevin chavez in washington he is managing partner of the chavez group as well as former president of d.c. young democrats here in moscow we have graham elwood he is a regular on the door show as well as host of the political lanty on you tube also in moscow we were joined by alex christopher he is the director and writer for the duran dot com all right gentlemen cross-like rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate kevin you're representing the democrats in this part of this program so welcome it.
