the water where politicians you walk to school in on and give the go ahead. big police clash with migrants at the turkish border after ankara gives the green light to asylum seekers hoping to reach the e.u. in an apparent bid to pressure nato into supporting its offensive in syria's. been a long week julia the sounds of his supporters with the 1st phase of his us actual edition case now complete during the hearings the wiki leaks founder was kept in a glass cage and denied the opportunity to interact with his lawyers we heard from one of them. couldn't take part in the court process this is inconceivable how can a person be in court without being able to interact or communicate with his lawyers who are representing his interests. and residents of towns in northeastern fronts accuse the belgian neighbors of illegally dumping garbage across the border.

great to have you with us this is r.t. international. there are fears of a new migration crisis with almost 50000 people crossing into europe in just a day and so after turkey opened up its borders to the european union anchor effectively tore up an agreement with brussels under which it took charge of millions of asylum seekers in return for financial aid on the other side greek police greeted the newcomers with tear gas. but it. was. still follows a flare up in tensions in syria's last remaining terrorist stronghold live province

turkey threatened to launch a full scale military operation there dozens of its troops were killed in a syrian airstrike that targeted jihadists was voiced concerns about a fresh impetus of refugees fleeing instability in the region the hostilities of all but ruined turkey's deescalation agreement with russia where if a national picks up the story. it's maybe syria's last remaining terrorist stronghold but seems to be killing the last remaining hope for peace or even a dialogue there. turkey which once committed to working with russia to clear terrorists from the area is making a u. turn yesterday i asked what is your goal if you want to set up a base you can set up a base to draw your troops back from where we leave us or face to face with the

regime the commons came after 33 turkish soldiers were reportedly killed in a syrian airstrike on adlib according to the russian military the troops died while operating alongside terrorists and turkey failed to inform us that they were there . the syrian army has every right to due to regular violations of the cease fire from inside the eclipse zone to neutralize terrorists so we cannot restrict the syrian army from fulfilling requirements written in the un resolution and a cry for help and car a cold and emergency meeting with nato they made speculation that alliance could be dragged into war nothing was offered more than words of support i don't think nato forces will enter syria in support of those who've gone the problem for turkey is the nato alliance principle is an attack on the lawn as an attack on all but the turks might be risking trying to say able to attack by one nato states brings in

all the others to support it and i think there's a lot of reluctance to see new to come into direct confrontation with russia so there's quite a lot of powerful voices in nato who support the turks desire to see the syrian army's offensive stopped but i'm not sure they want to go beyond words and perhaps symbolic gestures so it seems. have begun deployed another tactic trying to force europe's hand. what we did is we opened up orders because you promised us assistance but you did nothing and we will not close those doors because the e.u. must keep its word just hours later crowds of migrants rushed to the frontier buy food by bus by train even risking their lives at sea. and not all of them are from syria i'm from afghanistan we are going to greece for

a better life the turkish government did right by opening the borders i have been in turkey since i was 3 i'm originally from afghanistan i want to go to greece because i want to move to europe living conditions are better there but there wasn't exactly the warmest of welcomes on all for on the other side of the border agree even used tear gas in a bid to make the new comers abandoned their dreams of a better life which most were strengthening forces on landed at sea additional police and army forces are being transferred the government is determined to do whatever is necessary to safeguard our borders. so new wave of the refugee crisis in europe relations with russia again plunge into new lows nato losing its patients well maybe even more turbulence than ever before in just a matter of weeks elegans managed to undo the progress of the last 2 years taken the world in a direction that's the exact opposite of the peace the turkish president still

promises to restore it's a serious escalation. who chose to intervene militarily directly because they were doing so by proxy but really an organized i mean. there are groups. that. what's ok for a political reasons because the russians and the syrians didn't want to leave the region lead to a direct open you should be presence and it is not legitimate it's not sanctioned by any un resolution and it will answer that. region or an occupation by foreign power or syrian territory. the editor in chief and other staff members working for russia sputnik news agency in turkey have reportedly been detained in ankara sputnik says turkish police have

also searched their office in istanbul the reason for the search remains a name and correspondent saskia taylor has more on this developing story. well of course we know that there are a lot of eyes on turkey at the moment on what some are calling a developing crisis but there is another story from that that is worth discussing 3 people who work for russia's news agency attacked outside their homes on saturday it's not thought that anyone was injured but either way clearly an unpleasant situation and now there are reports that the editor in chief of the bureau has now been detained but perhaps what's most worrying about all of this is that the whereabouts of those who were under attack on now unknown because since going to the police to record what happened to them file a complaint they have not been seen something that has clearly drawn both condemnation and concern from moscow on the turkish authorities to intervene provide safety to the russian media and ensure that all circumstances are clarified

what details do we have about the attacks themselves or indeed possible motives behind them while reports are suggesting they were not spontaneous but rather a coordinated affair and again reportedly that they were instigated by turkish nationalists some of claiming that these people gathered outside the sputnik employees private homes some even managed to break into them and that they were allegedly chanting nationalist slogans and accuse them of betraying that country because they work for the russian outlet some articles are saying that phrases like turkey for the tocs and russian spies were being thrown around but that's not confirmed why would that be such a still a t towards these employees though while some within turkey are blaming russia for the deaths of dozens of turkish soldiers in a syrian as strike even though i'm correct itself has confirmed that the russian afterwards was not in any way involved and i do want to briefly mention that there was and not that motive suggested. threats an attempted attack against.

journalists outside the homes in ankara. they were reportedly detained today over a. on sukkot as you threw g.'s to ensure the safety of foreign correspondents now the article in question that we just heard in that tweet is one in which 1939 disputed referendum in the now turkish region of her time is discussed with the suggestion that it was in fact raped by the turks again i want to confirm that there is absolutely no confirmation of the link to that attack but it is briefly worth mentioning that unfortunate is not the 1st time and has faced problems in turkey for example back in 2016 that website was temporarily shut down and blocked by the country's telecom regulators as for these latest attacks and the alleged detention of the editor in chief of that bureau well of course it's drawing a lot of concern a lot of questions and concern over the safety of all employees so we'll certainly be following it. the 1st for is of julian assange and his u.s.

extradition case wrapped up this week the decision on whether he will be handed over or not will be reached in may when further hearings are scheduled. and the prosecution argued that the scientists knowingly put hundreds of lives at risk when he published troves of classified u.s. military files without true donating names and other sensitive information washington claims that following those leaks into a determined source it disappeared in iraq afghanistan and around the wiki leaks founder is also accused of encouraging the whistleblower and army intelligence analyst chelsea manning to hack the pentagon's computer network such as defense team of sought to counter those allegations buttressing the case with previously undisclosed information they claim the publisher actually warned the state hillary clinton about the leaks so as to ensure the safety of the individuals whose names appeared in the documents they've also stressed the songes activities are protected by principles of press freedom and this law is a strong rejected the assertion that he encouraged manning to hack the pentagon

furthermore they say extradition would undermine their client's health during the hearing itself was held in a glass cage he was also prevented from speaking to his lawyers we heard from one of them. a songe was in a grave condition before court but during the extradition proceedings that got even worse he was being held in a seethrough room without any access to his lawyers and while he was being delivered to this room he was handcuffed 11 times he underwent a full body search twice and went through 5 different rooms before he finally entered the court moreover a songe couldn't take part in the court process he was deprived of any kind of interaction with his lawyers but he tried to reach out to be by passing a piece of paper through a gap in the glass box he was being held in and he was told off by the guard because of that i mean this is inconceivable how can a person be in court without being able to interact or communicate with his lawyers

who are representing his interests. rather would join in the song to support him in protesting outside the courts claiming the case is a test of fundamental press freedoms including all london and washington not to shoot the messenger celebrity supporters also been a key feature of the us. pentagon the admitted. chose the many straw the body had. for the release or so why aren't we discussing the harm that was released there was revealed by the releases of which is in 20 minutes when 11 why aren't we here talking in court about the war crimes yes that's the nature of innocent civilians by the military the slaughtering of reuters journalists. that is what we should be talking about it up courtroom in this country and in america you know you say what why is everybody here today they're here because they don't believe. stream narrative. we spoke politician

broadcaster and former british m.p. george galloway about concerns surrounding freedom of the press. julian assange is a friend of mine and that's not the julian assange sitting in the court room but this man is mentally and physically shrunken and how could it be otherwise after a whole decade of this cruel and unusual punishment who will volunteer to be the next julian our son who will receive the evidence which checks out as being true of high crimes and misdemeanors by the us government or any government for that matter including our own and then report it to the public. they will be held there would have to be either foolhardy or extremely brave because if they did so they run a very high risk of ending up in our bulletproof box in woolwich crown for

extradition and the rest of your life in prison in the united states trust me that won't have a chilling effect on free journalism in the world it will have a killing effect. residents in northeastern france are trying foul overflight hipping they're accusing the neighbors in belgium of illegally dumping trash over the border picks up the story. this may look like part of a landfill site but it's not all of this waste has been dumped here illegally we're just a few miles from the border with belgium and luxembourg and the french town of all core mu 9 is one of many struggling to cope with the war you can see mountains and the mountains of garbage that have appeared since october in nearby red it's a similar story trash both household and commercial has been dumped under the cover

of darkness city at 1st we thought it was a regular waste but it turns out people are illegally dumping their washing machines. there throwing everything away. yes but here we see it's far more serious we estimate around 200 tons of waste it's enormous as far as the pollution we don't know what's inside it could be tonnes of who knows what type of products chemicals. we don't know we see cleaning products plastics what more could be hidden it didn't take long before calls track down where the waste was coming from much if we did the arms looking who the trench piles and piles of it it all had signs of being from the same place we searched and found out it was from on turn up. and that if there is an invoice is it and. i'm very clear it says and who have been so of s o

o when the company was contacted it denied any knowledge of illegal waste dumping but the local resident jessica told me that since that statement the fly tipping has continued it's been described as a dumping on an industrial scale and you can see why back in redone the local. fisherman's association is also concerned. in the water source or close to this pollution so there can be a problem because it could affect our pond this is the 21st century there are designated places to put waste like this on it's an acceptable people are doing this and regulate the mayor's office says the cost of cleaning this up is beyond its means no need of yourself on a financial level for us this is impossible to solve we have a small community of $1000.00 people it would cost the equivalent of the whole

annual budget to get rid of this policy a criminal investigation into the vase problem with cross border dumping has we know you print and customs agents have stepped up their patrols now in 2017 they reported that 7 metric tons of waste like this was illegally trafficked into france in 2018 that shot up to 130000000 metric tons now although there are no figures yet available for 29000 it is clear that this issue is escalating the communities here off fed up of being a dumping ground for of the people's waste they want more regulation and a calling on the e.u. to step in to solve a problem that some believe europe's open borders are helping to facilitate charlotte ski for r.t. in mosul still to come for this hour germany's lifted

a ban on the sale of euthanasia services leaving some concern that the death will be exploited for profit details after the break.

so what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have it's crazy. let it be an arms race is on spearing dramatic development only mostly i'm going to resist i don't see how that strategy will be successful very critical. to sit down and talk. jimmie's lifted a ban on the commercial sale of euthanasia but critics warn the right to die will now be exploited for profit into all of it takes a lot. almost 5 years after it was banned the highest court in germany has ruled that blocking assisted suicide is unconstitutional and making its ruling on

wednesday the constitutional court in culture is said everyone has a right to live and a right to die article 217 of the german criminal code outlawed euthanasia as well as the advertising of the services what this ruling from the constitutional court means is that that's being overturned and not only could companies offer euthanasia but that advertising for the deaf could also stop being seeing the thinking behind wednesday's court ruling is that this will allow those in extreme paying and suffering from terminal illnesses to end their lives on their terms however senior voices within palliative care are warning that this could perhaps only to the normalization and indeed the commodification of suicide in society now the facilitation of suicide for the sick and tired of life is turning into a normal service anyone who allows you to nature will sooner or later make it

compulsory to die especially in this society is economize designers knowledge of experience across all other countries shows that supply creates demand immediately following the ruling politicians are asking what situations this will be allowed in also what the commercial implications will be for companies wanting to get involved in the euthanasia business i want clear rules about when medical assistance in particular is allowed and when commercial offerings are excluded it is perfectly normal for people who have a terminal diagnosis to fail suicide in fact some of the studies show that i have 80 percent go through a period of depression with some sort of sidle thoughts and so what we should be doing is trying to find ways to assist those people in getting through that period and actually. being there lives rather than promoting assisted suicide and euthanasia services so we would be extremely worried about any commercialization all round of the process or indeed promotion that would lead to many fine report

people feeling that their lives were not worth living and actually ending them prematurely highest people here in berlin what their thoughts 'd are on the ruling aware that this is right for germany it's not a commercial thing dying it is something that needs care security it needs. yet professionalism if you are certain things that you cannot put to seal to people like it's not a business you before yes i know want to commit suicide but i'm suffering i want to end my life you cannot do that to pay for it seems like there was very bad incentives there if for example as advertising was actually targets people who already have a hard time it could lead to people considering suicide more strongly i don't disagree with their physician assisted suicide just because like there are certain aspects that are beneficial for it but in terms of the advertising i could go either way like it really it depends on who is in control of that promoting this

going to feel for me the progress currently within a year of belgium the netherlands looks a book and switzerland all allow assisted dying but with germany set to joy in the concerns are about what is one of the most sensitive of subjects could be set to become a business opportunity peter all of our. 4 years after they lost the white house to trump the democrats are still haunted by the specter of rushing pollution only now the pointing the finger at one of their own bernie sanders on the quarter looks at whether he and the russians have been rumbled. good news comrades our agent bernie sanders is doing better than we expected in the primaries are planned to have 2 agents fight over the presidency operation hammer and sickle is a go but we have one problem some in the democratic party establishment are becoming savvy to our strategy vladimir putin thinks donald trump should be

president of the united states and that's why russia is helping bernie sanders get elected so he'll lose to trump it doesn't help that just last week western media published information about our top secret operation exposing the connection between agents trump and sanders with our center in moscow as you learned tonight and today yesterday the day before is going to have we're going to work help coming from learn to be prudent. for health provider to do want somebody who didn't think can be from at least agent trump was able to follow orders i admit nothing deny everything and make counter accusations it was highly exaggerated. and frankly i think it's disgraceful and i think it was a leak from the intelligence committee our house version and i think that they leaked it i think probably shipley good agent sanders on the other hand really

dropped the ball he panicked and that is the ugliest thing they're doing is they are trying to cause chaos the trying to cause a truth in america it's an ugly business and all of us have got to say sorry you're not going to do this in the selection and again is present in the united states. you will not interfere in our elections and the order was to deny sanders deny but he broke under pressure blowing the cover of our moscow back to bernie bros i design these people they are not part of our movement all of us remember 2016 and what we meant what we remember is efforts by russians and others to try to interfere in our election and divide us up. i'm not saying that's happening but it would not shock me the center has good reason to believe agent sanders has been compromised we're losing control over his actions and he's praising our strategic allies too openly you know when fidel castro came into office you know what he did he had a massive literacy program is out of bed think it's only

a matter of time before they discover the interview agent sanders gave to prov i mean r t what effect do you think you can have on your voters it was so close here in iowa well i just hope that people take a hard look at the real issues impacting their lives to make matters worse we may have a mole in our midst how else could the footage have been leaked remember when the comrades recruited sanders at the new year's party of 1908 bernie spent his honeymoon in there in soviet russia i mean i think you're going to go back and forth about who's more in the tank with russia it's a really hard one between barney and rob we have made too many tactical blunders as it is and western pundits are already undergoing a campaign to discredit our agent obviously we know the russians are continuing to try to choose our next president like they chose our last president the russians don't want me to be the nominee who spent a lot of money on bots on facebook and they've been taken down say biden is a bad guy they don't want biden rodent rule in politics pick your opponent and

putin and trump are picking their opponent to happiest person right now it's about one thing time this thing is going very well for blatter we have to promise you. probably stay up watching us right now how you doing our rivals already know too much comrade commissar i think it's time to extract our agents. rather they don't forget you can find plenty more stories if you had to our website. or your rockies now they live better should we have that had a much better 17 years could we could have had a much more prosperous iraq a stable iraq yes as their. mistakes happen absolutely could americans have made things better by far they could have done they should have have made it better but

that does not take away from the fact that they have stood up to around the dictator who was blood thirsty and he participated in the murder and killing of hundreds of thousands of iraqis are millions and more of the around then the invasion of kuwait and so on. no but they do fit to point out when he simply number 2 the 41 when you have no kids with you to go home and so on and don't going to. see. that and that of all the use in the. house and the trick are yummy you can see more. and. more for you all at.
