commercial greeting. most of that opposition is coming from. the streets. headlining this germany expelled 2 russian embassy staffers. saying there is quote sufficient evidence to link russia to the murder of a georgian national. state involvement. with celebrations come to an end for its 70th birthday member states in the alliance struggle to find common ground. the new house intelligence committee reports on his impeachment a job as u.s. democrat hopes on the document being enough to pin the president.

here in moscow now thursday the 5th of december welcome to your update this 1st germany has announced that it's expressed as evidence moscow may have been behind the killing it's a claim that russia vehemently denies sepsis picks up the story. 2 employees of the russian embassy are to be expelled and are declared a person non grata after this new general tourney of germany is taking over the investigation of the murder of the chechen in berlin a last august with seem to be an asylum seeker in the country germany has taken this action against the russian employees and or to russia because they believe that russia has not done enough to help the authorities in germany looking into this investigation and they also say that berlin is taking this stance because they say that there is some sort of russian state level and for women in this word or

the federal foreign office today declared to employees of the russian embassy in berlin to be persona non-grata with this step as the federal government reacts to the fact that the russian authorities despite repeated high ranking and in fact it requests did not sufficiently participate in the investigation of the murder of 2 an a k k in berlin zoo there are sufficient real indications that the killing is either on commission or done by state agencies of the russian federation or such of the autonomy of chechen republic as part of the russian federation germany's prosecutors say or they have enough evidence linking the murder to moscow in article recently posted by the investigative group in the pointing fingers and law school that there is a link between the kremlin and the murder of the chechen ethnic last august here in berlin but let's talk about a little bit of what this group the link what we know about them so far is that they are of course ties to western secret services and they have played

a major role in major cases that involve the moscow case and the delany of h. 17 in ukraine russia has come out with their own statement about the reaction from berlin saying that this is groundless this is absolutely groundless speculation this topic is being somehow whipped up by german media but it does not mean it this is how things are. the us also been a reaction by e. german politician from the free democratic party alexandre graff alam store who spoke to the news agency a.f.p. he's asking for more information to be clearer shown to people why it is doing this we all i would like to point out here that next week in france the president of russia vladimir putin and the german chancellor angela merkel will be meeting in the normandy summit earlier from london today the chancellor angela merkel said that this would not effect in any way the talks between the countries since this

has to do with ukraine but she did leave open that it's possible that the latter bilateral relations between the 2 countries might get affected somehow mccarran drawing that you know nail eliot to discuss the victims. 40 year on saloon car he was killed in what was described as an execution style killing he was shot twice in the head and this is a murder case that quickly became highly politicized in the media with headlines pointing the finger at russia drawing comparisons to describe things in the u.k. calling it the script pal 2.0 in fact the media were less interested however in delving into the history of the victim which makes quite an interesting read his c.v. is is quite it shows a quite a checkered history let's say he's an ethnic chechen georgian citizen he was an islamist a former soldier he fought against russia in the 2nd chechen war he has connections to some very high profile terrorists many of the 5 to seaforth alongside went on to

move to syria and join islamist groups there and he sought asylum in germany in 2015 that was after a failed assassination attempt was that the 1st time someone tried to kill him. he was actually on a terror watch list a quite some time he. was described as a person who potentially posed a threat to the public safety he was taken off started terror list only last year in just this right in $28.00 he was removed from that list now needless to say is past however interesting have a check it may be does not justify his killing and the perpetrator must be brought to justice but perhaps to give a fuller picture it's worth highlighting that this guy was not joe bloggs you know he was not your average everyday guy he was a man with connections to some very questionable individuals with some very extreme ideological tendencies as for the wider repercussions i talked earlier to german economist he believes that while the case will cause political fallout it's

unlikely to affect economic cooperation between russia and germany. we cannot trust any of those explanations from german governments at all it was already with this group it was with iraq all these so-called big evidences turned out to be just nothing if you look over what is happening in the world you will see that everybody tries to get better relationships to russia at the minute because this is the biggest and most important market of the future on the or asian continent and there are some powers who might not one base russian government knows pretty well that german government and german industry are 2 totally different things and i think this might harm the relationships to the german government but not to the german industry because i think by now everybody knows that these are 2 totally different

things. leaders of nato member states of the meeting for 2nd day in london to mark the 70th anniversary of the world's most powerful military alliance and despite attempts to put on a show of unity divisions within the crisis stricken coalition have been laid bare over the past 48 hours he's been following the gathering in london. this summit is going to be defined not by the unity shown on the surface not least by all the leaders but i would be very very clear in the crowd cracks between many of those coming into this summit the one thing all the leaders have regularly seems to be agreed on is that russia is always the bad guy however the nato generally general secretary himself saying that what was needed was a more confrontation but dialogue with the major eastern neighbor nato is unfair a dialogue with russia because russia is our. 'd closest neighbor our biggest

neighbor we need to strive for a better relationship with russia. even if we are headed not able to. get the best relationship with russia in the near term we need to manage a difficult relationship and elsewhere as well we've also been hearing from manuel macron who's been saying that russia too does need to be dialogue on that fronts now while they advocate more dialogue with russia the reality is of course that war games continue to take place on russia's borders with those eastern member states and of course that expansion of nato to the east continues that's be a cause of national security concern for russia while any of the nato members such as take you for example who do wish to engage with russia even buy weapons from them will find themselves soon be out cost by other members russian air defense system s. $400.00 would never be anything good that into nato it will never be part of the nato integrated air missile defense system it was already tetchy in contentious

going into this summit and it would appear that things got even that was last night many of the leaders one of the leaders were invited to buckingham palace for a reception with the queen and some of them look cool it's on the microphone on the hot mike. brooks and. you see the. this is more he's a great politician because i was worried not sure that at. least

to finish today scott i find him to be a very nice guy but you know the truth is. i. the fact is suffering 2 percent. and i do see that really have to be donald trump not happy he had. scheduled a press conference it was due to be held at the end of this and will be leaving the summit early in fact he's been meeting with other leaders 8 plus one who he says are the 8 countries other than the u.s. who have met the 2 percent spending target for military targets and so mr trump making it very clear that certain countries canada and particular are not welcome not impressed with what he had. a very very divisive conference here in london. a political commentator professor says that the alliance is alienating russia and risking regional stability in the process. only problem he still owns i'm sure he's not an enemy once a golden age then we see

a little bit of religion with tension within we invent all games of problems like maybe this people are the reason being in germany goes the country the world syria where in fact russia is on that side because they're fighting the terrorists who we have said weapons do. you know i mean it will be very easy to get into a peaceful relations with tricia bush is gaining because it uses diplomatic means in the. in the asians and wars in which is what nato is doing and i think. and they're spending enormous amount of money and call now to look with a b. and b. say constraints spirit we sinned so the mystic police easily doesn't do. you know these little brains spending a lot of money on the defense which is and this is a. leading british universities being branded shameful and appalling over its advice regard lines for people based on its campus in dubai has some of the advice that's come under fire from academics students and the community. do not

do anything that may be perceived as a public display of affection by the same sex or opposite sex even if it's intended to be innocent try to avoid dressing in a way which is not traditionally associated with your perceived gender if you are in public do not wear any clothes or accessories which could be considered to be a form of the l g q advocacy the university of birmingham opened its campus in the united arab emirates last year offering a range of course is set to give case standard is currently expanding in dubai with plans to accommodate more than $4000.00 students however there are concerns over the human rights record and its treatment of the l.g.b. community and that's prompted a number of lecturers to refuse taking up any positions in the kingdom which forbids same sex relationships the university though says the guidelines are there to protect students and staff earlier here on r.t. we discussed whether an educational institution should be offering such advice at

all. there are thousands of. people who work in the united arab emirates and do saw for many many years i have friends there who work there so i don't think it is that much of an issue from the point of the. university it's about protecting students and it's about having the right guidance and support in place to protect students as they study in the country of the university of birmingham has a very clear and very good equal opportunities policy a very strong policy around human rights diversity and inclusion and by going to dubai it is violating its very own rules and principles may i think quite clearly this is simply a money making exercise the university of birmingham has put profit before human rights i can't is to be with anything peter said about the regime in the u.a.e. or saudi arabia or some of the other desperate regimes in the middle east where

there is no human rights and there is no freedom but i think it's important for individuals to know the expectation you know now that the universities there how they should behave in terms of protecting themselves sorry let me rephrase that how they should conduct themselves how they should protect themselves their own safety and the safety of their peoples and i think that's what the university was trying to do for to get a balance in terms of security and in terms of safety can't have one law for people in britain and then a different law for people in dubai that smacks of arrogance it's next of western privilege it smacks of disrespecting the human rights of the people of divide and i want to say that this is not just about the human rights of the lecturers and staff of university it's also about the human rights of the people in dubai itself who live under a very very oppressive regime reality is the university is there they've got

a juicy a moral duty to make sure that the safeguard and protection of their stuff and their peoples is good and they've done it in that way which i think is most responsible giving advice to people. statement proceedings in the united states a gathering steam after the house intelligence committee released while democrats are calling a damning report the document claims the president trump abused his office for personal gain by soliciting interference from ukraine for the 2020 election donald trump the brunt of the allegations a joke with the details his double quarter. president donald trump is on the impeachment block again hearings are under way again and another impeachment reports been released accusing him of more than just a few misty perhaps that's why trump thinks it's a joke i saw it and it's a joke everybody is saying it for the democrats though this is no laughing matter president trump and his senior officials may see nothing wrong with using the power of the office of the president to pressure

a foreign country to help the president's reelection campaign however the founding fathers prescribed a remedy for a chief executive who places his personal interests above those of the country impeachment remember the flunk that was russia gate robert muller's investigation into trump's alleged ties to russia 2 years in the making and yet to deliver the grand revelations it promised but that's yesterday's headline the democrats have no time to lose with the 2020 presidential election looming closer they've put their hopes in the new ukraine gate report which this time took only 2 months to put together the dems say impeachment wasn't an easy conclusion to come to but come on guys we've been hearing this stuff since trump took office our rise today mr speaker. to call for the impeachment of the president of the united states of america your son 6 years as home alone if you want but only

don't play and maybe things won't because we're going to go in there we're going to be some other we shouldn't be impeached for a political reason and we should avoid punishment for a political reason it may be that we undertake an appeal nonetheless the document is basically a summary of the impeachment hearing thus far it claims the testimonies were overwhelming evidence of trump's misconduct but some witnesses weren't as convincing as others there was no mention of withholding 8 on the call correct that's correct and there was no quid pro quo correct correct was there any reference to withholding aid you know there was not any reference to bribery no there was not any reference to quid pro quo no there was not you have any information regarding any criminal activity that the president of the united states has been involved with at all. now ukraine gate was handed to the dems by an anonymous whistleblower someone to put the final nail into the coffin of trump's political career someone protected from prosecution just what the anti trump

brigade needed but you have to blow the right whistle to find protection under the law to take julian assad's he spent 7 years hiding from the law in london's ecuadorian embassy without any sympathy from washington i think a son should be assassinated actually go polish a contract that maybe use a draw or something but this guy is a traitor a treasonous and he has broken every law the united states the guy ought to be and i'm not for the death penalty so if i'm not for the death penalty want to do it illegally shoot the son of a i think the man as a terrorist could act tough and say if we catch you we're going to hang you one has to wonder how the founding fathers would have treated someone claiming to stand up against tyranny if they were with us today. away off to florida democratic party chairman mitch sees a clean bill of media out of this line oh how way to think the report is what we have here is unprecedented and no one knows what it means because it means nothing

why do we call it an impeachment inquiry because if it was an impeachment hearing or an impeachment proceeding the president would have been allowed to invite to subpoena witnesses but since they didn't do that and didn't want him to do that they call that an impeachment inquiry and they have not changed one i ota from what they said when they began the inquiry that and i will paraphrase it the president used to his position his authority under article 2 of the constitution for personal and or political benefits and the last time i checked every president since george washington as done this this is not impeachable i do believe that the democratic report was factual and obviously the republican response was perhaps

a fairy tale that people do want to read perhaps to put some went to bed specifically you have very different responses be on the lookout for this when we have to look at is different order was given that are going to come out that will be pretty straightforward there's going to be an abuse of power because as you say in the quote he took his interests above the national interest there's also going to be obstruction some is obstruction of congress not letting people cooperate. but his envoy to the world chemical weapons watchdog says a new investigation is needed into last year's alleged chemical attack in the syrian city of duma it comes after a number of o.p.c. w. employees raised concerns about the official findings the organizations report was compiled following the april 28th tax which was blamed on the syrian government the latest atrocity prompted retaliate strikes by britain france and the united states on a number of targets in damascus and homs a year later whistleblowers began to cast doubt over the findings claiming the

report was heavily redacted and scientifically flawed to suited to conclusions most of the duty to see reports on the instant the interim report in the final report was scientifically impoverished procedurally irregular and possibly fraudulent and then addition to the o.p.c. w.'s impartiality having been called into question a number of academics have claimed that the media's failed to provide balanced coverage of the syrian conflict one of them max abrams explained to me what he sees as some of the shortcomings. they're the mainstream nehru going to keep to the conflict in a very simplistic way sexually by making it seem as if the sun was even more extreme than you actually did captured firstly this pro regime change crowd made it seem as if the rebels fighting assad were more moderate than they actually were all the more time goes on the more evidence for merchants the more it

becomes difficult to claim that you know assad is all evil and the rebels who are all good at least 3 different scientists who were brought to this the who are officially part of this group. david got to be the one which is broadcast in the video through the roof wax the sun the ship here for those scientists exactly what the scientists was all about. ex members of a ukrainian ultranationalist battalion have apparently turned up in hong kong taking part in the continuing protests there photos of their visit were posted on social media by a former head of one of the out of the tally and unit they show a number of masked men walking through the city and posing in front of a university damaged during clashes during police with police and protesters one of them was identified online as an as a veteran and some demonstrators from hong kong aren't happy about the unexpected

guest. huge warning about some protests to risk we have just turned up and who were at the rally yesterday if they are as battalion then we're talking full on neo nazi fascists connected with war crimes and torture the worst of the worst the as of battalions an armed volunteer unit which is now part of the ukrainian interior ministry the group's been accused of human rights violations and war crimes during the country's conflict in the eastern donbass region the battalion's also notorious for its use of nazi symbols back in october 40 members of the u.s. congress demanded ourselves be recognized as a terrorist organization and journalist martin summers says that such appearances at the hong kong protests a detrimental to the movement that. bucket imagine if i was a home call protester i wouldn't particularly like these these rather unpleasant forces for ukraine's to enjoy the more protests but you can't really stop people from turning your city this even if you wanted to. do that if you approach us

through the phone call you need to be demonstrating some cause of loyalty to the. nice community or not to be seen as a foreign influence the foreign aid to you and therefore you don't particularly need to have loads of people tell you to make it look as if you are in section of the foreign influence but with what we've seen protesters in hong kong waving american flags with example this back in the days of the chinaman square protests and will late eighty's would have been unthinkable because it redemonstrate like the patriotism and so. also a new train a college campus fire has left one person dead and 26 others injured in the port city of death the fire began on wednesday morning at about 10 am in one of the colleges historic buildings around $400.00 people were believed to be inside at the time 15 still remain unaccounted for the authorities have launched an investigation into watercourse the blaze. ok and that is your update for the south and very much

for watching after the break how rowing undercover investigation into the commercial dog breeding industry in the united states. was. loose. is it.

up until recently politics were about policy preferences and ways to implement them that is not the case today your political views are now what define you as a person and there is

a moral dimension bias against those who are not politically correct is the last acceptable form of discrimination this is the end of politics. is your media a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe from. the isolation pool community. are you going the right way or are you being that. direct. what is true what is faith. in the world corrupted you need to descend. to join us in the depths. or a maybe in the shallowness. you

know world of big partisan movie lot and conspiracy 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 smarter we need to stop slamming the door on the back and 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 for washing clothes for watching the hawks.

a cure you see in terms of its revenue model registers dogs and registers litters so it's involved transactional relationship with those breeders obviously the ones producing the most dogs are the largest still breeders so why is it going to crack down on those large scale breeders and sacrifice the revenue from a rigorous program that stops people from confining animals to care or exposing them to extremes of being told they're going to lose revenue the american kennel club prides itself on being the only purebred registry in the united states with an ongoing routine kennel inspection program with a dedicated team of field inspectors casey says that it inspects channels but they

don't make any of those inspection records available. they say that they've got rigorous standards but they really don't know what those standards are real terms they say that they kick people out we don't really have a comprehensive record of when they're doing that or what the consequences are even if they can still keep breathing and they can still keep operating so what's the value of their inspections program there in force and efforts for all we know are completely meaningless we don't know what they even inspect when they go into these facilities because they don't make their inspection records public quite frankly if they were meaningful inspections there would be no reason not to make them.
