all of this our self i believe. they are spreading panic amongst so many young people. by their life martin financials will do central moscow one is kevin knowing if the next 30 minutes for the latest update for you thanks for taking the time to us 1st as mentioned some of the central evidence in the doping claims against 3 russian athletes is said to be hanging by a thread tonight their legal team claims that critically important documents contain forged signatures of the whistleblower at the heart of the allegations the sports arbitration court has demanded a limb pick choose explain themselves and tonight the lawyer for one of those biathletes spoke to r.t. . well. in response to a statement about the forging of mr rajan gov signature we received

a document that was submitted by the i.o.c. to see a ass it is another statement by mr rajan with you signature according to this document he in knowledge is that he did not sign any of the previously submitted documents with his own hand allegedly with his permission his electronic signature was used however the conclusions of experts suggest that the electronic signature was only used on 2 of 9 documents regarding the remaining 7 documents the experts concluded that the signatures were applied by another person that means they were falsified so quick recap those athletes were hit with lifetime bans back in 2017 after implicated in an alleged state sponsored doping scheme then they were stripped to the silver medals that one of the such olympics 3 years earlier the birth leads appeal began then on monday the court of arbitration for sport in response to the claims of the lawyers the court ordered the international olympic committee to explain whose signatures are on those documents then. the court of

arbitration for sport panel of arbitrators has accepted the statement about food signatures in i.o.c. documents and has ordered the international olympic committee to provide an explanation within 24 hours the latest is the i.o.c. hasn't commented publicly on the allegation that key signatures were forged the athletes are seeking monetary compensation for the damage to their careers their lawyer says a decision is expected in the next few weeks and that he's optimistic at this stage they will win the case. i want to point out that the question of origin cause signatures is not our only argument we always expected that our flutes would be absolved of guilt by cia as on the basis of our the evidence that we have collected however the question regarding signatures arose on the eve of the court hearing we initially got concerned regarding one particular signature after that we conducted a full examination of all of the signatures as well we have claimed there was

forgery and expect that this will be taking into account in the future see as decision which is coming in the next few weeks. he's border agency saying tonight is deploying a rapid intervention team to reinforce greece's border with turkey with thousands of refugees have been gathering brussels has also promised to provide athens with a 700000000 euro package to help deal with the crisis now this buildup began after turkey said friday it would no longer prevent asylum seekers from attempting to head to europe that decision followed a dramatic surge in violence in syria's italy province greece reacting angrily to the turkish move it's no turning away anyone attempting to enter the country illegally and is suspended asylum applications too which is a decision that the un refugee agency has said lacks any legal basis is they see it has got the latest for you. european commission president just leveled a lane in the border towns. in greece and turkey she took

a military helicopter and was assessing the situation from above in the air now she announced in a press conference that the e.u. would fully support its member state of greece in this time of crisis she talked about the frontex rapid intervention team being brought in this would mean both aircraft and border guards coming to greece to shore up the efforts here she talked about some 7w7cw euros in fact to support greece in this time of tension with its neighbor turkey and she talked about implementing and triggering the civil mechanism protection mechanism now this is a mechanism that's used by the e.u. when one member state is in a time of crisis and it's to improve the prevention the preparedness and the response to a disaster by a member state that gives you an inclination as to how serious this issue with

turkey is being seen as have a listen to what else live on the land had to say frontex is now getting ready to deploy a rep it border intervention team secondly we can provide financial assistance of 700000000 euro to greece those who seek to test europe's unity will be disappointed turkey is not an enemy and people are not just means to reach a goal we would all do well to remember both in the days to come now all this comes after in the last few days turkey's president good ones said that turkey would no longer hold the borders under that agreement that was thrashed out by the e.u. in turkey back in 2016 the basic idea of that agreement was the e.u. was to clown around 6000000000 euros into turkey in aid in turkey which shut the borders from my goods coming through into the e.u.

this was sort of the. that migrant crisis that started around 2015 will open the borders and in the last few days thousands upon thousands of migrants have attempted to come into greece i'm sure to give you a sense when one of the border towns now and just behind me you might be able to see a police vehicle many of these vehicles around the border towns ready to detain any illegal migrants who attempt to cross the border we know that in the 24 hours up to choose the morning around $5000.00 attempting to do that most return back several would detain and sent to the detention centers or correction facilities now the greek prime minister has also been visiting this region today and he has said that the e.u. and greece in particular will not be blackmailed this is a blatant attempt by turkey to use desperate people to promote his jew political agenda and to divert attention from the horrible situation in syria the 10s of

thousands of people who tried to and to greece over the past few days did not come for me to live they have been living safely in turkey for a long period of time most of them speak turkish through and through. and europe will not be blackmailed by turkey over the refugee issue now what's really interesting is some of the people i've spoken to on the ground have said that the migrants that have attempted to come through over the last few days have not been from syria they've been countries such as afghanistan bangladesh from pakistan for moon rock go easily and they were at pains to stress that this is not as a result of the turkish military operation in libya in the north of syria something that president a suggestion is now he was speaking in the last 24 hours suggesting that this situation could get so bad that millions could be coming towards the e.u.'s borders little since the moment we open our borders the number of those who are headed to

europe has reached hundreds of 1000 now will be more soon this number will be a 1000000 and well there is fear amongst many e.u. leaders who see it as using people as political pawns boucher in chips to try and pressure the european union into supporting not military operation in that the north of syria so far european allies of nato allies have decided not to do that but this people essays what this is all about this is not about turkey not having enough money to look after refugees and migrants in its own country this is about pressuring the european union to step in and take me to turkey in the spine in the north of syria people a few reus but the reality is on the ground there are tensions here and people are afraid that this could be the start of a repeat of 2015 migrate to a crisis. everyone is worried well can greece do if greece does whatever it can now

it's the europeans who should intervene because this is the border of europe what's happening is not right to end it is not right it's all this is stalled europe should punish him. all of us here are anatomy but we have a strong belief in our soldiers our police and we're very optimistic since the migrants haven't crossed over yet and of course we're positive about the help we're waiting for from the european union. you know that this will do the mighty her is that really close to the border with turkey where the 1st to receive the bulk of the migrants and to greece for the land border i think we're in a tragic situation as neighbors we should have avoided this there should have been another way a diplomatic way and not end up in this situation which is on the brink of creating a war between the 2 countries. 2 political analysts where office told us the e.u. does need to pursue a more comprehensive strategy says to avert any new migrant crisis on the border

now. contacts can support the greek order authorities it cannot do much more than the greek authorities themselves so it's not a real sold you should not even at the short term and in the long run we have to expect that such situations will repeat and we will see them most likely also on other border sections of the european union and therefore there needs to be a holistic solution of the problem 1st you need to establish those countries where the ritchies are coming from and now we are. looking to get the peace treaty development between us and afghanistan this is a good development we already have development of large parts of syria but the european union has increased the pressure of its economic sanctions the economic warfare against this war torn country so the european union and does not

help to build the homeland of those in my trade my trance who has come already into the european union 20 is 15 so we are not doing the right thing to solve this crisis in a holistic way we are just looking at this for a section increase now and think that it's only an issue of protecting the border it's much larger the challenge. latest twist and turn the race the white house next super tuesday it is was today it's underway in the states anyway with voters say in 14 states they're choosing their preferred democratic presidential candidate establishment favorite joe biden's received a major boost going into the latest leg of the race after 2 of his challengers dropped out and gave him their indorsement that's been seen as a big attempt than to undermine the campaign a front runner currently anyway bernie sanders. i am ending my campaign and you are saying by the ear delighted to endorse and support joe biden.

to unite our party and our country i'm looking for a president who will draw out what is best in each of us and i'm encouraging everybody who is part of my campaign to join me because we have found that leaders in vice president soon to be president job of. course his whole thing is a complicated process the super tuesday is when the largest number of states head to the polls saying time more delegates are chosen any other day around 3rd or up for grabs those delegates will then make it on to the final pick front and center for the democrats is the battle right now between the former vice president joe biden and progressive senator bernie sanders who's currently out in front with an 8 party delegate lead even he though thinks to establishment out to get him there is a. strong. anybody in this room or the corporate establishment is

going to go for the political establishment it's going to go to everybody. always took a minute taken to twitter over a donald trump accuse the democratic party of attempting to stop their front runner from getting nominated again is the crucial word the president was referring to the nomination saga in 2016 which he says was skewed in favor hillary clinton and he was the only one. is out all of the super tuesday votes will go to sleep each oh pardon great timing this is the real beginning of the dems taking burning out of play no nomination again the democratic leadership is fighting harder to stop bernie than to stop drum group just dropped out of the presidential race. this is all about stopping sound as the democratic party's moderate or shall we say establishment wing coalesces around biden to stop bernie it's starting to look a lot like 2016 when the same wing rallied around clinton it is to the republicans

advantage to see a brokered convention a chaotic democratic race here on out so you have to wonder since saturday night and looking at the thing is internals was there actually a conversation listen you're young you've got a lot more support for you in history in history in politics maybe if you help us out here make sure that our party stays our party a long established lines you might have a place in 20 years and we won't forget super tuesday also marks the 1st time the controversial bloomberg will be on the ballot next. looks at the choice the democrats have put it before voters what they all have in common as we enter the thick of the race for the democratic presidential nomination 3 major contenders stand out now of course the candidates are emphasizing what is different about them however they do have some things in common all 3 are white all 3 are male and all 3 are in their late seventy's meet the grandad's who are contending for the democratic nomination. joe biden is 77 years old and he's

the youngest to many he reminds them of an easygoing grandpa with a bad habit of forgetting people's names please come back in less than 13 years or . our chad thank you very much all right it's christian but anyway i just heard chris i don't know i just did chuck from our superstar thursday and i want to thank you all. very well i'm rushing it on now he's known to get a little touchy feely with women he says that's because it was acceptable back in his time and it's an old man habit that he just can't break 2. we're going to quote from you remember that awkward feeling you had when your grandfather was telling anecdotes about his rough and tough younger days well if joe biden becomes president you might as well get used to it and corn pop was

a bad dude and he ran a bunch of bad bores and i did you know and back your nose day job things have changed one of the things you had to use if you used pot made your hair you had to wear a bathing cap. and series up on the board would list message a master you off the board all come up and drag you off where you came off and he said i'll meet you outside now sometimes the stories just get so weird to wonder if he's maintaining his sanity i'm not going to notice to do surely receive medical school if you're rich there's generally county executive county executive. closer to graft slightly right here we were in a situation i had a president ask me the head of the kitchen and she. now hoping to take out joe biden is former n.y.c. mayor mike bloomberg now michael bloomberg like many grandparents is known for his

generosity. $21.00 of those were people that i spent $100000000.00 to help elect all of the new democrats that came in and put nancy pelosi in charge and gave the congress the ability to control this president i bought i got them he works really hard to be hip with the kids even knows what a meme is. with my screen i think this. big gay ice cream is the best many suspect he may harbor some racial prejudices 'd. you know. and then there's bernie sanders the elderly socialist originally from brooklyn he's

the kind of grandpa that everyone seems to be scared of can either coronavirus or bernie sanders be stopped they are bernie bolsheviks they are bernie brownshirts that's what they are and their revolution will result in death and misery another whole to do more or another whole accost or whatever we call the next great socialist atrocity totally transform society with firing squads dungeons torture and exile so he's been pretty clear that's what he supports many standards how many times bernie sanders family has apparently urged him to move into a retirement home but he decided to run for president instead one thing about bernie though is that despite his age it's the young voters who love him the most. not just the campaign we already both generate should know both the ridge show grass roots good now sanders critics love to point out that despite the fact that

he rants and raves against billionaires he's certainly no poor man himself sure laugh all you want but it's very possible that one of these 3 elderly white men could be the next president of the united states yes if donald trump fails to be reelected it's all but certain he'll be replaced by someone with white hair white skin and a deep voice and while that does not fit the liberal democratic party message about inclusion it also follows a longstanding u.s. tradition meter on this little things that for a poet who pitches itself as diverse as big 3 hopefuls are anything but. when you deal with a party that speaks to 1st lady and biden married gendered fluidity you and ed demographic heterogeneity the new when young men. and then you end up with the older rich guy he don't care about diversity they don't care anything they want to win everything

about this election it has been the source of great comedic relief for me that being said i want everyone to appreciate what we have right now because we have one of the most seismic collapses of the democratic party is about to. enjoy now we have 2 people so you talk about between a rock and a hard place between this seller and corrupt us the democratic party is absolutely petrified. as the impression the climate activism of the swedish teen kreta termed continues to inspire millions of young people around the world resistance to movements also growing to be reported 19 year old you tube or niamey seibert for instance a shock to popularity in recent months for her of a corrosive what she calls climate real ism she denounces what she says amounts to

environmental alarmism and the process has been dubbed the anti grettir over her controversial positions in fact don that hawkins in the studio here spoke to just a bit earlier about why she decided to weigh in on the debate and what she's hoping to achieve in doing it. most people on the site of climate alarmism if you will label us the climate deniers and that is a term that i really dislike because it sounds like we don't really look into the science we don't do our research we just hate the planet just wanted to strike this and we're just selfish and ignorant and that's not what we're about we're about being scientific skeptics and looking into more sensible yet ways to improve the environment to be more in line with our values when it comes to interacting with nature and so yeah that's what climate realism is about it's about scientific

skepticism and having more discussions in the scientific spirit was a german media outlet that started this thing in the 1st place and it was to. portray me as kind of this evil anti-christ on the left on the right and i really just like that but then i thought let's just have fun with it and let's just play in this label and well if the media wants to portray us antigravity then go ahead but you don't state for the anti-gravity you stay for the naomi's act you come for the anti-graft or you can stay for the night because i am not against it up i think she is probably super nice individual innocent in all of this and i don't have anything against her it's just that she is not about the science she's basically just about panic and telling people to change their lives entirely i demanded that government control the lives of all of the people. and that i believe

has nothing to do with science and skepticism anymore and that's really what's so awful about all of this but all this stuff can sink in in an illustration of a growing concern a new poll out in the u.k. has found that almost one in 5 children in the country are having nightmares about climate change. out of 2000 just to survey it seems around 70 percent also said the fears over the environmental crisis a disturbing this leak or causing them to lose their appetites was no me again sharing her thoughts but those findings. that's what we call climate alarmism because people like you talk to me and i'm sure she's a very nice girl and i don't want to shame her in any way and she's innocent in all of the scar cells i believe. they are spreading panic amongst so many young people they are tearing apart relationships because people are fighting. about. who is right in all of this who's wrong in all of this and we're not allowed to speak anymore so people are genuinely worried about the planet and they think that

their grandparents and parents are destroying this planet and that's so horrible to see because it takes away their hope for the future and so many young people have their own passions and would like to pursue that happens in the future and work what a great job and now all they're concerned about is climate change that was really sad to me to be honest there's clearly an element of panic about about climate change not only among young people among many hurdles as well and are worried about what's happening do you think that's less a story do you think that's on justified everybody seems to believe that just because there's this great consensus out there allegedly 99 percent of scientists agree that climate change is real and climate change is manmade of course can't change it's real climate change has always been real the climate has been changing for millions of years but we need to be more precise in our questions and ask things like. our missions are actually that destructive to the planet are they

really. the cause of global warming or are there other factors playing into this like for example the image that the sun has on the climate and what's a feedback and what feedback out whatever brain. but there are so many other factors that are way stronger than just syria too much and so it is ridiculous to believe that humans could have such a big impact on the climate and we cannot mass with nature and that way at least that's the competition that i've come to you from doing my own research tom people have said that. work is just being used to uses a project of environmental activists or you know as you but as you said left wing is some people have said you yourself are a project of the opposite of environmental conservatives how does that make you feel i i really hate that this notion is out there because i know for myself that i do everything on my own i write my own speeches but never ever actually interview

and most people don't know that the people that i work with from our institute for example they don't know when i write my speeches they don't read it beforehand so it's all just based on my own mind and i'm having fun with all of this i i started my you tube channel on my own this is basically all just what i am really passionate about and i don't get tons of money for what i'm doing i live at home my family and i get a lot of support from my mother and my grandmother and that's just fantastic and i wish that people would just listen to my manus message instead of reading what the media has to say about me in my funding and what goes on behind the scenes i'm happy to debate and one all the time. will agree with what she's going to so i'm not good at verbalizing in the next door of the u.k. reports this say there's been an alarming surge in suicides among british soldiers

who served in a ghost over a dozen take human lives just the 1st 2 months of this year the country's minister for veterans is no working to provide additional curve for former service personnel . i want to understand at exactly what stage we could or should have intervened in that process it's unimaginable it's a tragedy for the institution the army that i'm so proud of where fully our eyes open and ears open. 14 veterans have taken their own lives in the past 2 months alone most served in a particular army unit involved in britain's mission in afghanistan between 2002 and 14 to find out what might have led so many people in such a short period of time to take such a desperate step we spoke to an iraq war veteran martin webster the numbers the suicide from my from my own regiment we've lost nearly a full platoon lots like 15 soldiers from my regiment the 1st infantry have taken their own lives i can give you

a quote from dr kent drescher said during the vietnam war the american soldiers were only ever allowed to do 2 years operational service that country says we now have u.s. veterans $8.00 to $10.00 toss of africa and iraq that's like an experiment this is what he said that's like an experiment that's never happened in human history the rates of p.t.s.d. about time in 2001 present the present and we are now starting to see the effects of the iraq and afghanistan war such as captains taking their own lives people with really good pensions with no reason whatsoever on paper saw it for the rest of their life for the sense of having a good pension taking their own lives so much to the aftereffects of what is now worse if a no from us so for me kevin owen here in the newsroom but with more in just over half an hour keep abreast of any breaking news or anything on r.t. dot com and of social media i can tell you next after the break stand by and watch the whole summer stateside studios there the minute it is.

you know we talk a lot on this show many years about economy and currencies and what makes a currency really what makes a currency is scarcity for example gauld is a currency it's money because it's scarce that's the price. theory reason people use it as money keynesian economics or socialism is usually unworkable because the people who are organizing it think that well you can just print all the money you need you need a program print more money there's socialism for banks on wall street as was pointed out recently one of the big presidential debates you know bank gets in trouble just print more money well what's the ultimate scarce commodity what is the ultimate scarce commodity think about it what is the ultimate scarce commodity.
