this is leading to a neo feudalism where you have just a few private equity firms and 98 percent of all the assets and everyone else is living serfs on that we're getting back to the dark ages. germany expels it to russian embassy staffers in berlin saying there is quote sufficient evidence to link russia or chechnya to the murder of a georgian national in moscow denies any state involvement. as nato celebrations come to an end for its 70th birthday in the u.k. member states in the struggle to find common ground. and trump labels that the new house intelligence committee report on his impeachment a joke as u.s. democrats hang their hopes on that document to pin the president.

has a lot of direct our studios in moscow this is our team international incheon thomas certainly glad to have you with us we're going to start with a developing story coming out of hawaii this hour a shooting has been reported at the pearl harbor naval base now we do have information our team is getting across that right now there appear to be at least 3 victims with one dead and 2 others injured a witness claims that the gunman took his own life the base is now closed while 40 s are investigating the situation of course as i said our newsroom is staying on top of the situation and we'll bring you more information as it develops. moving on now germany has announced it is expelling 2 russian embassy employees in response to the murder of a georgian national back in august berlin's attorney general says there is evidence moscow may have been behind the killing

a claim russia vehemently denies now the man was shot twice in the head and chest in a berlin park on the aug 23rd it was a 40 year old asylum seeker of chechen descent to fall along side anti moscow militants in chechnya which is of course a republic of russia with more on the details of the case here is our correspondent evangelist. 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 with 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 tony 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's chechen republic as part of the russian federation germany's prosecutor say or they have enough evidence linking the murder to moscow in article recently posted by the investigative group at the pointing finger is on last call that there was 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 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 a come out with their own statement of both 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 what she did leave open that it's possible that the latter bilateral relations between the 2 countries and i get affected somehow. and was in the studio earlier to discuss the victim's background. 40 year on fill in congress villany 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 fighters he force 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. it was actually a terror watch list a quite some time here he was described as a person who potentially posed a threat to the public safety he was taken off that terror list only last year in 28 he was removed from that list now needless to say is passed 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 german economist. 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 creep out it was with iraq all these so-called big evidences turned out to be just nothing if you look at 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 want this russian government knows pretty well that german government and german industry are 2 totally different things and i think this might harm their 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.

all right donald trump claims he got along well with fellow leaders on the 2nd day of neda's london summit in his latest tweet the us president hit back at a viral video showing some world leaders having an exchange or trying to expense the meeting was being held to mark the 70th anniversary of the world's most powerful military alliance sally was at a 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 by all of them very very big and the power cracks between many of those coming into this summit one thing world leaders regularly here seem 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 essentially ruled out a little shock because russia is our. closest neighbor our biggest neighbor we

need to strive for better relations ship with russia. even if we are head not able to. get a better 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 to 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 worse last night one of the leaders were invited to buckingham palace for a reception with the queen and some of the courts on the microphone on the hot mike . please. listen. if you see the. this is more he's a great politician that was for the tsunami answers that at. the tests at least to face today i find him to be

a very nice guy but you know the truth is that i told him out of the fact that he's not paying 2 percent and i guess you don't really have to go to trial not happy he had canceled scheduled a press conference it was due to be held at the end of this and will be leaving the summit in fact he's been meeting with other leaders so-called 8 plus one who he says 8 countries other than the u.s. who have met the 2 percent spending targets for the military targets and so mr trump making it very clear that sets in countries canada and particular are not welcome not impressed with what he had overall a very very divisive conference here in london. political commentators on but he sponsors the alliances alienating russia and risking regional stability in the process. only problem really stones i'm. not an enemy in their close i want to go there was

a little bit of illusion we turn over then we invent all kinds of problems like maybe this people are the reason being in germany the country diverts you know where in fact russia is on that side because they're fighting the terrorists whom we have said weapons too. you know i mean it will be very easy to get into a peaceful asian retraction per se just beginning because it uses diplomatic means in the. asians and wars which is what nato is doing and wanting. and they're spending an enormous amount of money and calling out to know where they would be a big straight influence maclin should spirit we send for the mystic police and he doesn't do. these little brains spend even more money on the defense which is and this is. a leading british university is being branded shameful and appalling over its advisory guidelines for people based at its campus in dubai here's some of the advice that has come under fire from academics students and of

the. community alike. do not do anything that may be perceived as a public display of affection are 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 q advocacy university of birmingham opened its campus in the united arab emirates last year offering a range of courses set to u.k. standards it is currently expanding in dubai with plans to accommodate more than $4000.00 students however there are concerns over the u.a.e. as human rights record and the treatment of the l g b t q community that has prompted a number of lecturers to refuse taking up any positions in the game them which forbids same sex relationships the university of those says the guidelines are to protect students and staff the u.a.e. denies violating human rights earlier 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 is that much of an issue from the point of the 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 i mean 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 despot 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 of 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 and they've got

a juicy a moral duty to make sure that the safeguard and protection of their staff and their peoples. and they've done it in that way which i think is most responsible giving advice to people. impeachment proceedings in the u.s. are gaining steam after the house intelligence committee released what democrats are calling a damning report the document claims that president trump abused his office for personal gain by soliciting interference from ukraine in the 2020 election donald trump branded the allegations a joke with details and commentary of course here is don't quote 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 postal 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 should be impeached for a political reason and we should avoid punishment for a political reason it may be that we undertake an appeasement 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 take julian assads 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 and 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. we ask the former florida democratic party chairman mitch caesar and media analyst lionel how weighty they think the report is i do believe that the democratic report was factual and obviously the

republican response was perhaps a fairy tale that people do want to report have to support 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 interest above the national interest there's also going to be obstruction some is obstruction of congress not letting people cooperate 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 be cause if it was an impeachment hearing or an impeachment proceeding the president would have been allowed to invite it to subpoena witnesses but since they didn't do that and didn't want him to do that they called it and 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 has done this this is not impeachable. russia's 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 this comes after a number of employees raised concerns about the official findings the organisation's report was compiled following the april 2018 attack which was blamed on the syrian government led to be prompted it retaliatory airstrikes by britain

france and the us on a number of targets in damascus and homes are a year later whistleblowers began to cast doubt all over the findings claiming the report was heavily redacted and scientifically flawed to suit its own conclusions. the reports in the instant the interim reports and the final report was scientifically impoverished procedurally irregular and possibly fraudulent in addition to the o.p.c. w.'s impartiality having been called into question a number of academics have claimed the media has failed to provide balanced coverage of the syrian conflict one of them max abrams explained that what he sees as some of the shortcomings. there the mainstream narrative going to keep to the conflict in a very simplistic way especially by making it seem like i said assad what is even more extreme than he actually did was captured firstly this pro regime change crowd

made it seem as if the rebels fighting assad were more moderate than they actually were are the more time i am goes on the more evidence for merchants the more it becomes difficult to claim god you know assad is all evil and the rebels who are all good at least 3 different scientists who were involved in this but who are officially part of this group. didn't go the work which has been broadcast in the video through the roof wax the song we should hear from those scientists exactly what the scientists was all about. members of a ukrainian ultranationalist a 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 as of battalions units they show a number of masked men walking through the city and posing in front of

a university damaged during clashes between protesters and police one of them was identified online as and as of a veteran and some demonstrators from hong kong aren't happy about the unexpected guests. huge warning about some process to risk who 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 yes of battalion is an armed volunteer unit which is now part of the ukrainian interior ministry their group has it been accused of human rights violations and war crimes during the conflict in the country's eastern donbass region the battalion is also notorious for its use of nazi symbols now back in october 40 members of the u.s. congress demanded azov be recognized as a terrorist organization journalist martin sommer says that such appearances at the hong kong protests are detrimental to the movement but could imagine if i was a home cole princess or i wouldn't particularly like these these role the

unpleasant what would force is for ukraine's to enjoy the more protests but you can't really stop people from to go see this even if you wanted to. do that if you approach us through the phone call you need to be demonstrating some call of loyalty to the. chinese community and not to be seen as a foreign influence of the foreign aid to you and therefore you don't take it to me to have loads of people to go to make it look as if you are in section of the for the intruders but with what we've seen protests in whole cold waving american flags for example which back in the days of the chinaman square protests in the late eighty's would have been unthinkable because it redemonstrate like the patriotism of so on. the college campus fire has left one person dead and 29 injured in the ukrainian port city of adesa the fire began on wednesday morning in one of the colleges historic buildings around 400 people were believed to have been inside at

the time 13 remain unaccounted for and the authorities have launched an investigation into the cause of the blaze. right it does for me as i'll be back with headlines about 34 minutes you want to international stay with us.

all the yen the euro and the dollar they all refer to each other and they're all going deeper and deeper into debt so there's no basic there or there there's no so there's no way to measure the dead against something that is could be considered money remember j.p. morgan said only gold is money everything else is credit or debt ok so without that there is no way to measure that debt and there's no at the moment you know my my view is that this is leading to a neo feudalism poor you have just a few private equity firms owing 98 percent of all the assets and everyone else is

a living as serfs on that we're getting back to the dark ages. time after time say we're going underground as us president all trump imposing collective punishment on iran and bottling a u.s. soldier accused of war crimes in iraq needs leaders of so-called brain dead nato in london to strategize future conflicts coming up in the show with britain's royal navy scaling down military operations in the straits of hormuz has iran won the maritime supremacy battle against the united kingdom we speak to the chief of iran

underground i'm going to ask in age or nation media your country is a rogue state it's violated data that's the law you're basically an isolated country one of the even doing in britain actually what the. u.s. is claiming about iran it's not true we are not if a country in the international community a delegation arrived to london to participate in the 31st assembly of the international maritime organization you're one of the most influential members of imo and same as this organization all other international organization iran is a steal participate in so this is not acceptable that we are. violating country or very isolating and tomorrow you are managing director iran's port authority i mean if you read any nato nation newspaper or watch any major nation t.v. .
