are politicizing. ukraine peace talks resume for the 1st time in 3 years and they'll be the 1st for the country's new leader who was elected on a promise to end the conflict. and the f.b.i. is working on the assumption that friday's deadly naval base shooting in florida was an act of terrorism. oh very well we'll continue this monday morning you're watching altie international with me mickey erin and our top story russian athletes are holding their breath with the world anti-doping agency awada deciding on monday what that their national team will be disqualified from international sports for the next 4 years russia was accused of town pouring with a doping test database they handed over to the body earlier this year. russian

sports facing a number of possible sanctions including a ban on participation in international tournament among them next is tokyo summer games and the beijing winter olympics in 2022 its officials could also be barred from sporting executive bodies additionally the country could be banned from hosting or attempting to host any major sporting events and on top of all that the russian flag might not be seen at any competitions any time soon well the russian olympic committee says waters recommendations are a lot of cool and inadequate scandal broke when wada analysts found irregularities in the doping test database from the mosque of the burra tree there were discrepancies with data they don't obtained earlier from a whistleblower relating to the time period between 20122015 dining hall can speak up a story. russian fleet saw in limbo once again many of them are just taken the 1st steps of their sporting careers when this whole doping saga began 5 years ago and

back then the world anti-doping agency accused the rush of a huge cover up they slammed risotto the russian anti doping body as being unfit for purpose and things escalated quickly i think it doping scandal after a ban on its paralympic athletes was upheld blocking the entire team from taking part in the upcoming rio paralympic games 15 of the $33.00 russian medal winners were part of a state when doping program the banned the harshest in olympic history hits officials hardest of the russian olympic committee is suspended me no flag. but things seem to blow over moscow denied they had a state run doping program but admitted they had a problem the russian olympic committee was reinstated and even now reformed resolder was given the green light subject to strict conditions. we actively cooperate with the requirements that. to russia are fully implemented but there was

no happy ending water required for access the russian of 3 dates related to the field of doping testing after a brief deadline delay this was provided in generate 2019 a fast forward to autumn and things have gone wrong again this time water accused russia of tampering with the data well the 29 team copy of the laboratory information management system elias database matches in many respects the 2015 copy of provided to wander by a whistle blower in 2017 hundreds of presumptive adverse analytical findings that appear in the 2015 copies have been removed from the 2019 copy and the related underlying real data and p.d.f. files have been deleted all. altered or water haven't named the mysterious whistleblower but one key witness at the very center of this doping scandal is going to go to rot in coffee before fleeing to the united states where he's now in

a witness protection program he was head of the moscow to borrow a tree for 10 years and it turns out his reputation is far from spotless the icy further find that at the heart of the positive drug test coverup is director rod chin cough he not only accepted brutha requested money in order to execute the concealment of positive test results which makes him equally responsible for incidents where coaches or officials extorted athletes even if he was not personally made aware of the extortion no wonder independent russian experts have doubts about the consistency and reliability of the data. since november 28th 15 when the informant left our country till 2017 when the informant's data set was handed over to the water intelligence and investigations department this data bank was at the informant's disposal he could do anything to it but they allege the system was accessed hundreds of times from abroad and that raj chen cough who is

wanted in russia for abuse of office and drug charges may have been complicit in tampering with the messages in the system independent forensic examination suggests that rushing of support staff members to my fisa bill if skee hand me the actual remotely logged into the limbs in moscow on numerous occasions after they had detected abroad so they could have changed the zeros to ones both in their database copy and the one that remained in russia and the monies mean you know what is up but russia cut off access to its data base in 2016 while wada claims the data was being tampered with as late as january 29th team blaming russia further significant deletions and alterations were made in december 28th seen and generally 2090. i.e. after the war the exco imposed a day to requirement these activities were concealed by backdating of computer systems and data files in an attempt to make it appear that the morse code data had

been in their current state since 2015 furthermore the commands issued to execute the manipulations deletions and backdating what also deleted in the attempt to avoid detection of what had been done russian experts challenge the pause ability of the investigations findings claiming that such large scale tampering is simply impossible it was like and we can't we cannot deny that there were occurrences of copies of files being destroyed and other fast created but there were no deliberate manipulations this is the working condition of the database when every year the operator begins to work with this database to change delete and free memory there was a complaint to us the desert disk was reset but the entry was exactly 17 seconds it was impossible to completely delete information on the disk during this time so how do things stand now fortunately very much where they left off accusations of lawyers and get another cover up by water counter allegations by russian officials

questioning the credibility of findings based on the testimony of a controversial informant while the fate of hundreds of athletes supposed to be innocent until proven guilty hangs in the balance. meanwhile some voices in wind are calling for infant tougher sanctions a blanket ban on all russian olympic athlete but even in that eventuality there are some grounds for hope on an individual basis alexander try to call it has just won bronze at the skeleton world cup managed to get his lifetime olympics ban overturned by spores highest court. you know a little bit of subject of course she has been to see the ski diploma and you just get your shit on a bicycle. most of the male. commuter. the book in this is. the 3rd says that i knew i should sleep in a good mind you know. the thought of the thought.

process began. yeah the. know what that would also. just but others from chile. suggested the trial of. the us to be a noble at the mission that's the to be. still of the bunch of. that action they made a good. idea discipline that might be somewhat but i do look at the pendulum of support us they will shake the truth into dust and it's time you got away digital snow going yes i'm a sleaze i'm going to see i'm a cousin yeah. i could keep a lot of the. go it really was shit ability to do yes no.

one can do more work 'd for more just call him a whopper. yeah people still spin my wish it took people just. to post facebook tell me on the porch most. will still see near. me and yes the money. but those wanting to come down hardest on russia are the u.k. and the u.s. and their own to doping agencies want to complete a limping ban on all russian athletes the u.k. agency though has its own controversies it cleared a heavyweight boxer dillion whites despite the presence of steroids in his sample and justification it said the levels were very low and not caused by any fault on white's parts aren't easy cause donna looks at how double standards are paid to raid and this fear of anti doping. for years you national sports competitions have

. been hijacked by the russians for decades it seems that russian olympic athletes have been secretly doping to gain a competitive advantage labrat doping system secret labs double agents helping russian athletes cheat their way to the medal stand at the olympics this is now pointing the finger at a whole range of sports in a former what a staffer told us today you know this isn't a bombshell this is a nuclear warhead the russia doping investigation has become the leviathan of sports scandals it's towering so high above everything else in fact it's hard to notice other violations in its shadow bribery a secret doping society medics and coaches going rogue this year alone has seen plenty staggering revelations none of which could compete with russia there when it comes to the fallout and case one a kenyan olympic champion was caught at greasing anti doping offices palms to avoid

being caught. one person's case unraveled years of large scale cheating a trove of documents suggesting kenya's national anti doping agency was helping the country's team get away with it more than a 100 athletes caught red handed no not russia kenya but the punishment wasn't sweeping it was specific individual to each test and the case or how wide a call did not institutionalised drug taking another scandal that snowballed olympic skiing it looked like parts pulled from the american horror story script.

so a doping cartel with the now infamous german magic has their ringleader a whole network concocting mechanisms to fool the agency keeping sport clean you'd be shocked to know the sport you play all watch is swarming with drug cheats but the focus remains tight on russia those other scandals cost into the media archive and forgotten so reports of institutional conspiracy check and undercover doping that were check what about implicating $1.00 of the giants of sport coat with its name in lights for promoting a group spearheading american long distance running with performance enhancing

drugs. with the c.e.o. apparently on top of the medical experiments within the company's brainchild it's as close to institutionalize drug taking as it gets in the realms of business but you wouldn't expect anyone to banned nike and its billions of dollars from sports now we're here because otherwise who is going to tailor team u.s.a.'s olympic outfit. i think we have to look at the wide it your political context anybody who has studied this in depth this whole. story i'm afraid would come to the objective conclusion that double standards are being applied here we are seeing a campaign to deal just to my russia on

a number of fronts what people are saying quite rightly in russia and elsewhere is the standards must be applied equally that's what this is about it's about standards being applied equally yes when there is evidence of individual athletes who may have consciously taken drugs in an attempt to get advantages over their rivals then any athlete that does that should be subject to the rules no one is disputing that but where this goes way beyond that is this call for a blanket ban and which is unfair because it punishes the innocent as well as the the guilty. the alleged but foundation of the matter is not not the only criticism amount and that coming ahead of the possible ban but some sports personalities believe that if implemented it will demotivate a generation of future athletes. how can you. not only team it that entire sports for

a country for 4 years it's absolutely ridiculous it's an overkill. little water should do its job and do with claims concerning individual athletes not with the country as a whole to have dreams like the so there was 18 years old to go to the. border and compete for their country for the love of this for. them one of the best don't want to do. the school is being dragged down by politics in a place where politics should be completely absent school is becoming cost. difference of politics intensely in this desire to disqualify the whole national team why does decision to ban russia will affect everybody and it will cause a great shock. i would say the decisions either politicized or just

incorrect. what kind of message is out. to our children and we always talk about. our mission because that is tomorrow when you ban the whole culture from participating to kill all out of you wish the 1st and foremost this will affect children and their interest in sport. by our children taking their future away with they want to do what they love away because of what a couple individuals did in the past it's just i mean it's ludicrous that doesn't make any sense at all. and of course we'll bring you that it's critical water ruling as and when it happens stay with us for that.

is you'll be a reflection of reality. in a world transformed. what will make you feel safe. isolation 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. for a mate in the shallowness. to globalization be dollars a share you know it's happening in the world us kind of drifting apart

a lot of different ways we look into it because there's an economic force behind it as always. hello welcome back on monday the need is a france germany russia and ukraine are meeting in paris to thrash out a road map to peace in eastern ukraine president vladimir putin will be arriving in the french capital in just a few hours joining us now live from paris is on trying to bring his more india one of the expectations out of today's meeting. mikki good morning well hala tell you what the blood the called flick between kiev and the breakaway republics in east ukraine which took more 'd than 10000 lives has been sorted for years now there's only one crucial remark it's been so.

on paper the step by step peace plan is called the minsk agreement came into being thanks to the efforts by the leaders of russia ukraine but also france and germany which then became known as the normandy for end up during almost 5 years don't essentially from all kinds of sides from east to west we've been hearing that the minsk agreement this plan is the only way to go. to support the implementation of the minsk agreement because the reasonable alternative no plan b. exists in my opinion this is the only way they can create a climate in ukrainian society where they were able to make painful compromises regarding the state some so must. i agree with the chancellor there is no other alternative to the implementation of agreements with help of the elysee you.

however in reality none of these steps were actually being taking during these 5 years no wonder the quartet the number of normandy for it stopped convening and this is why december the 9th is this very special day because the 4 will get together for the 1st time in a very long while but more importantly the president of russia and ukraine will hold direct one on one talks for the 1st time since the outbreak of the civil war in ukraine but ukraine's will dimmers selenski could find himself trapped many experts are saying that he is already in a trap because on the one hand he was elected by a vast majority of the ukrainians on promises to bring peace to the country on the other hand any baby steps that he can potentially make towards russia any kind of compromise could cause serious political damage for him back home if not. room

success of his political party yes he does have a new government but it's still a question of whether that could lead to a revival of the peace process now what's in it for france and germany and manual macron wants to cement his role as a senior peace broker between the east and west decent ties with russia when it comes to angola merkel of course she's more busy reforming her party back home she's more busy with domestic issues but again the minsk agreement was her brainchild so far her even though soon she'll be out of big politics it is a matter of christie's to revive the peace process now when it comes to moscow it seems that for them there is no reason to divert from the men's accord and

it is believed. that for moscow a status quo though will be better than any kind of move that is not carefully thought through but again there was hope that something could happen on december the 9th the experts aren't predicting any breakthroughs but in the buildup to this were a member that the prisoner exchange happened between russia and ukraine and also heavy artillery and weaponry were removed from both sides of the front line which was really a breakthrough. as opposed to 3 years of pretty much nothing being done under the minsk agreement under the previous president of ukraine petro poroshenko . covering those talks to end paris today in trying to thank you for bringing us up to date will speak to you again a bit later. i'm moving on the f.b.i. is working on the assumption that the pensacola naval base shooting was not to

terrorism the attack which took place on friday left 3 people dead and 8 injured investigate looking at whether the saudi dung man who was a trainee at the base alone or as part of a clue. we are as we do in most active shooter investigations work with the presumption that this was an act of terrorism the so lousy just to take advantage of investigative techniques that can help us more quickly identify and then eliminate any additional potential threats to the rest of our community the gunman was shot dead at the scene by a sheriff's deputy 21 year old mohammad rami was at the base to study aviation it's now been revealed that he boards his weapon illegally in the u.s. from reports suggest that he played mass shooting videos to other students at a dinner just days before the attack or prior to the deadly shooting a twitter account which allegedly belong to the saudi air force officer posted anti

u.s. messages condemning washington's policies in the middle east strategic analyst gregory copley's lays the shooting throws a wrench into efforts to boost the u.s. saudi alliance. it's very hard to get into the minds of individuals and i think we're at an age where we see people radicalized online to a large extent so that they can turn at any moment clearly this young officer was personally motivated to undertake this anti american act and very hard to stop people from that kind of allegiance we've even seen it as you know in the past some u.s. officers undertake acts of terrorism of the american acts of terrorism within their own military units so this is not surprising it does however actually cause a problem for the saudi government and the u.s. government because saudi arabia and united states were busily trying to repair the

fences between them because it made a breakdown in their strategic relationship over the past few months. thank you for joining us here on r.t. international this monday we're back in 30 minutes with the latest headlines join us then if it can't. come soon enough you know it was a good omen for trying to answer mr snyder on the. thank you note miles you know we're tough. because i find you have somebody here is just. it's just you get to get it to just full time boy to come to.

square miles of just new south wales alone burnt to a crisp the air was catastrophic far as where the smog ends up in new zealand you know that is catastrophic for we have to repeal some of the vegetation wars because people couldn't get proper access on roads because trees that form of the roads and excess green legislation that said you cannot have a trades in paid the capacity of fire trucks to arrive at areas and people to evacuate from those areas obviously we have to accept that the climate is changing and it's harder and it's drawing but no legislation and now palm it's going to change that we need you know when the people's republic of china decided china in india desires to change and. then i suppose we can have a some water amid a going against that chinese communist party claims to be engaging in the largest renewable program in world history but what you seem to be saying is it's not just climate change it's.
