. reaction live from moscow this is. welcome to the program 1st off a prominent critic trump has offered an explosive interpretation of the u.s. president's now infamous ukraine phone call as the ongoing impeachment investigation picks up state struck back at democrat adam schiff making up his version of the conversation. want you to make up dirt on my political opponent understand lots of it on this that there's a lot of talk about biden's son and a lot of people want to find out about that so whatever you can do would be great.
12:02 pm
i'm going to put you in touch with attorney general united states my attorney general bill barr he's got the whole weight. of the american law enforcement. behind him i'm also going to have attorney general and we will get to the bottom of it. and by the way don't call me again i'll call you when you've done what i asked whenever you would like to come to the white house feel free to call give us a date and we'll work that out and i look forward to seeing you. on tuesday the house of representatives wants to form an impeachment inquiry and to trump over alleged attempts by the u.s. president to force his ukrainian counterpart to investigate biden as the son of joe biden his potential 2020 democratic rival legal and media analyst line open leaves adam schiff has played fast and loose with the facts when presenting concocted details of the phone call. it is extremely duplicitous it is extremely misleading and very troublesome for the way adam schiff came about and basically
12:03 pm
provided a parody a unique way of looking at it and he was reading what people thought was actual transcript provisions actual statements made sentences a conversation sent and then later on when pressed he says well i was being. a bit loose with this i was giving you one kind of a perhaps a a parody a kind of a satirical look well that satirical look is absolutely 1st of all so necessary but it was most problematic and the cause of many many people being very very angry with what he did it was on call for duplicitous misleading and wrong in another development america's special envoy to ukraine could vote his quits amid the phone call scandal and there's still the corruption allegations circulating
12:04 pm
about joe biden and his son some of which have been dismissed as a conspiracy theory by the mainstream media next to looks or whether they're being a bit too hasty to write off the story. so the reason why the president is after the man who's most likely to challenge him next year is nothing but a conspiracy so many voices are saying just that the president is again insisting today that reporters should dig into a conspiracy theory involving biden ukraine and a ukrainian prosecutor promoting without evidence the dubious narrative that biden used the office of the vice president to advance and protect his son's interests as dig into these unproven claims that trump is making about the former vice president we cannot have a debate about a conspiracy theory but just how much does the public in america know about the case of the ukranian energy company a few years ago the root of all this stir the public deserves to be aware and make up their own mind conspiracy or proper investigation material so joe biden's son
12:05 pm
hunter was on the board of directors at mr biden senior as vice president was washington's point man with kiev at the time meanwhile this man victor sulkin the prosecutor general there was in charge of investigating boris ma and its founder for economic crimes he eventually lost his job well just have a look at how frank joe biden was about his involvement i said you not get the 1000000000 i'm going to leave in a year i think it was about 6 hours i looked as a reader to 6 hours of the prosecutors not fired you're not getting the money oh son of a. fighter jets guess what happened later after the new prosecutor came in his office eventually gave the company a free pass obviously though we cannot connect any dots here but just so you know the fired ukraine official no matter how corrupt he ended up being was confident about why he got kicked out here's
12:06 pm
a quote from his affidavit the truth is that i was forced out because i was leading a wide ranging corruption probe into peru's mode ngs and natural gas in ukraine and joe biden. biden was a member of the board of directors anyway let me move on with a few more relevant findings by a journalist from the hill who studied a bunch of e-mails then ukrainian government memo. it turns out the folks from a us p.r. firm that represented breasts were really eager to get a meeting with the most senior prosecutors in kiev one a male claimed to have been sent by ukrainian embassy diplomat to one of the people from the firm said this with regards to the missing some key it's just that you wait until the next week when the reason expected in the government. has been revealed that on the same day prosecutor shocking was shown the door the top guys of the p.r. team once again got in touch with kiev and only took them several days to get
12:07 pm
a meeting with the new acting prosecutor general his memo suggests the folks that helped wrist mall raised the changes at the prosecutor's office the visiting side was surprised by the info and sent the u.s. state department has completely different information describing the failure of the reforms at the prosecutor's office but then they changed their mind and realized u.s. officials were misinformed they also promise to hook up ukraine's incoming law enforcement officials with ties to the state department and help organize a trip to the u.s. they informed me that they would seek to facilitate my visit to the u.s. to pass on the correct information to state department officials. after this man you are saying co officially took over from the acting prosecutor general step by step all proceedings against the firm where hunter biden had one of the top jobs began to vanish now back to mr biden seeing here and someone who used to meet him quite often as the head of ukraine according to the fired prosecutors testimony the
12:08 pm
president was pushing too on several occasions president poroshenko asked me to consider the possibility of winding down the investigative actions in respect of this company but i refused to close this investigation now where that would lead experts in conspiracy tagging or the us public as a whole i have no clue. voting is over in afghanistan's presidential election on a day that's been marred by sporadic outbursts of insurgent violence and widespread voter intimidation explosions and missile attacks rocked polling stations up and down the country with one person confirmed dead dozens of others injured the taliban says it's behind the attacks it's the 4th election since the u.s. forcibly removed the taliban from power in 2001 and the 1st since donald trump broke off peace talks with the group earlier this month more than $9000000.00 people were registered to vote in the election the low turnout is said to have been
12:09 pm
low the 1st results aren't expected until mid october figures show that only 20 percent of afghans believe the vote is free and fair the afghan government currently controls slightly more than half the country the rest is either under the taliban or contested there were around $5000.00 polling stations open today down from the more than $7000.00 which were initially planned hundreds of them situated in dangerous areas afghan base journalists brought us the latest on the election. today morning the elections kicked off however the turnout is very low in many parts of the country we have heard more than 20 blasts took place in the capital kabul in south or in kandahar province as well as in a lot of our province and could this province the taliban are really no warrant to disrupt the process but you know despite all these threats by it all these insecurity the process hasn't which is a very big damage or
12:10 pm
a very big let's say obstacle to prevent you know the whole process but we could say that you know so far we have heard that 3 big attacks have been thwarted by the government forces because the afghan government announced more than 100000 afghan security forces are deployed to secure the process still they turn out overall turnout shows that people are scared off the going to the polling stations doing good c.q. very busy with. the. music to. do that trying to see voters and for these laws no one should be afraid of anyone who should vote for president because it is their right to vote the security to be able . to live with the suspicion that the security is good right now
12:11 pm
we're voting to have a democratic country on land should be peaceful and our people should be happy but also in kabul a research analyst at the center for conflict and peace studies outlined for us the complexities and challenges posed by today's election. i hope i'm wrong but we will enter through election crisis where the top contenders particularly the president in his chief executive of the loved both refused to accept the results so i think that point the likely scenario would be that yes election cannot be sorted out then let's have. an interim government where are the taliban are so. happy about it in that it could give a chance to. peace peace as well i think you know one of the key reasons for the taliban to not negotiate with one government is president only because in 24000 before the elections he made promises to them but once he took power. he could not
12:12 pm
fulfill those promises so i think that's a likely scenario where interim government will be created. after the election crisis come in so i think that would be the only solution in if you look at the reports that are coming that a peace process is going to start in a week it makes more sense. mass rallies demanding action over climate change of been held across canada with around half a 1000000 marching in montreal alone climate activists gratitude burke and the canadian prime minister justin trudeau also joined the rally during a private meeting between the pair him to do more to same thing environment. meanwhile an undercover investigations found that canadian companies have been sending plastic waste overseas instead of recycling it at home canada exported more than $10000.00 tonnes of it to malaysia in 2080 and it's claimed that that's led to
12:13 pm
a drastic increase in the number of illegal processing plants. inside this factory we see workers exposed to potentially toxic fumes without proper protection. whoever that send their ways to malaysia by the ways are those plastic ways or whatever ways we will send it back and we will fight back even though we are small country we cannot be bullied by a developed countries people have that huge climate march in montreal whether they were aware of what's happening with canada's waste you know what happened plus you know you secondly. i know pointing to a recent c.d.c. report a lot of this plastic containers being shipped to malaysia where in india is rated i just wanted to get your response to that how you felt was that if you are so rude if you ashamed if you wish to cure. dishes in a sense i'm sorry to hear that i believe you know i. kept up with what you know but
12:14 pm

12:15 pm
that they're going to ban this kind of moral and improper behavior in the world which is to export your talks that garbage most canadians do diligently recycle and they participate in the in that recycling programs and the. and that their cities and governments are you know following how companies collect and store and recycle this material they can't imagine or the most canadians wouldn't think that these companies are actually selling the materials off to distant lands to to the developing world countries it's mass hypocrisy is what we're seeing now among our canadian politicians they don't do the real things that they have the power to do instead they would prefer to do token gestures like walk in this march. this is. the way including a weight loss pill which is reportedly behind as many as 2000 deaths is now saying

12:22 pm
b m p party bob worked to sudan's defacto central bank during a period when that widespread rights violations by the regime were being carried out in the country of france correspondent shiela do bensky takes a look at the accusations. charges of crimes and genocide linked to the conflict in sudan's darfur region have long been made against the country's former president omar al bashir big now an alliance of human rights organizations waltzed to broaden the responsibility to include french bank b.m.p. . we call on the french authorities to promptly open an investigation to determine whether b.n.p. is criminally responsible for its dealings with sudan 2 out of knowing plaintiffs have waived their right to remain anonymous they are my son an activist who spoke out against the government he was injured during an attack on his village in darfur later arrested and beaten and he says he saw close relatives shot and killed the
12:23 pm
2nd is how a silly who was kidnapped by jun jaweed forces are loyal to the former sudanese government she was shot tortured and so 100 family members executed so why did they hold the bank responsible for what has happened to them behind the greatest crimes and human rights violations there is always money by granting the sudanese regime access to international money markets b.n.p. power allow the government to function pay its staff military and security forces make purchases abroad all while sudan was a pariah on the international scene for planning and committing crimes in darfur and the crimes were horrific widespread human rights violations between 20022008 led to the deaths of more than 3 $100000.00 sudanese civilians b.m.p.

12:25 pm
a law that diverted the b.n.p. power of us find to american victims of terrorism leaving the sudanese and other victims without any form of redress for the harm they suffered and which the bank is believed to have played a role so with the money in the pockets of the americans and not the sudanese victims now making another attempt to receive restitution this time here in france that's because it's no was allowed for corporations to be prosecuted if they've played a role in crimes committed a brute party asked to be in for a statement it is yet to respond to that request the parish tribunal must now decide if this new complaint warrants a criminal investigation into b m p power does involvement any case though is likely to prove complex and lengthy meaning the victims still have a long way to go before they may feel that they perceived any justice.
