3:04 am
here on the streets of berlin whether they are afraid of the virus. the supermarkets have been plundered and you take what you can cure in order to have something at home as bad as i will wait for a bit it's important not to be so hysterical fabric that is there greasy i mean once you have a small staggered home which would last for 14 days as a player in some food and again food is all right but everything else i think is messily exaggerated i'm not doing penny buying and doing my usual grocery shopping it would be nice if others who did the same then you would not need to drive to multiple stores this is because you might be the mule and that there is an epidemic many people die every year and now we have this coronavirus theatre it's absolutely sickening in a silly which is being the hardest hit in europe all schools and universities have been closed for 2 weeks in an attempt to stop the spread of the virus panic buying
3:05 am
is also being seen in the united kingdom where there's also huge economic concerns over the impact in a nation with a paltry system of sick pay compared to other european countries it could see some force to survive on just over 100 euro week the reality is we don't know what is going to happen next with this new virus the best advice we have is to avoid panicking practice good hand washing hygiene and avoid touching bases the trial of a party. not a story but keeping an eye on the latest refugee crisis at the greek turkish border is seeing officials and politicians increasingly trade area socked ization to one another with both claiming facts are being willfully distorted in the meantime turkey is allowing tens of thousands of people to amass at the us out a frontier many are at a makeshift camp right now. the numbers are growing and fast turkish authorities
3:06 am
have deployed additional police officers on the greek side pushback shotted to pinsky has been in the thick of it and she looks next at how both sides are fueling the situation greece and turkey have long had an acrimonious relationship now as greece feels its borders are under attack this time by migrants leaving turkey sparks are flying on the ground here is where the battle lines are being drawn but perhaps the real conflict is being fought through the power of the news and social media with both sides labeling claims and counterclaims as fake need turkey has accused greece of using live ammunition killing and injuring my quince who are trying to cross the greek police and border units have fired plastic bullets and live ammunition on migrants waiting between the cash
3:07 am
danny's impassive border gate the 5 men who were wounded had been shot in the food growing head and chest by live bullets. turkish state media even says it has evidence of violence perpetuated by greece. and that is the type of excessive force which decree border police using their started using live ammunition on refugees and migrants be to be people of archippus give us the turkish side creates and disperse this fake news targeted against greece today they created yet another such false who'd with injured migrants and one dead supposedly by greek fire i categorically deny it turkey also claims that those trying to cross this border are syrian refugees but greek authorities say the majority of from countries such as afghanistan from pakistan from morocco on social media videos purporting to show migrant crossings are circulating as click bait it is
3:08 am
a wall of words they have borders and they have the right to protect them. the greeks have been europe's shield for much longer than most people realize ever since there has been islam. the e.u. is fighting against refugees turkey is fighting to protect refugees it seems the world is divided over who is at fault here on the one side turkey is apparently dumping migrants and forcing them to cross the border on the other hand greece is allegedly using brute force to repel them both accuse the other of using tear gas as a weapon to either push migrants towards or away from the border but as the war of fake news is playing out on the ground it's the migrants who are suffering being battered back and forth between turkey greece and the e.u. even ski for r.t. casting is on the greek turkish border and the european parliament several furious
3:09 am
m.p.'s are demanding the e.u. and all cooperation with turkey for causing this latest crisis. this is again a good lesson for us that the european union doesn't solve our problems it only makes the problems worse we paid 6000000000 euros to the turkish regime and what do we get after several years we only get blackmailed again so does the other gun just wants more money from us and this has to stop infinity is clear that mr hat. are not a reliable partner and so i think that the e.u. should keep the interim council because i think that european and sex pair are certainly have lost a lot of money i mean in my view would be an appropriate response for the e.u. to suspend the e.u. turkish customs union with immediate effect. and. we may well be
3:10 am
demanding this in the not too distant future. don't touch his opposite border that's the one with syria moves are being made to defuse weeks of escalating violence the leaders of russia and turkey agree to cease fire in the war torn at the prophets following extensive talks and moscow the 2 powers are backing opposing sides in the conflict which has brought them perilously close at times to direct confrontation where for national picks up the story. it took a total of 6 hours 3 of them ted ted between ludmer put another job type at 11 that's a lot for top men and then the 2 countries delegations including foreign and defense ministers joined their leaders and the discussion continued it was clear from the beginning it is not going to be an easy chorus aish and both leaders came out to journalists with the outcome of thursday's crucial talks on syria the key point is
3:11 am
that the 2 sides came to an agreement to de-escalate the syrian turkish crisis in syria's war torn even a province and to set this in concrete putin and out of the gun signed a document detailing a cease fire on the ground in a glib that starts from midnight march 6th your jews taught at midnight beginning on the 6th of march a ceasefire will be implemented we will take all necessary steps to ensure at last our goal is to do everything possible to prevent the humanitarian situation from deteriorating in the region. so the ceasefire is certainly agcy point but there were some other steps agreed upon between russia and turkey the 2 sides decided to establish a so-called safe corridor 12 kilometer wide 6 kilometers north and 6 kilometers south from syria strategic and 4 highway connecting aleppo and lattakia and to start joint patrol of this area to secure it to make it
3:12 am
a safe zone starting march 15th flood reporting described thursday stalks with the head of the gun in general as a positive move through the forgiveness measurement of this group but we don't always agree without turkish partners in our evaluation of the situation in syria but a critical moment having high level bilateral relations we've always managed to find common ground on controversial issues and have found acceptable solutions. a while ago the turkish president announced a special. yeah the rain on syria in istanbul but not only between russia and turkey but also with france and germany that's what meant putting convinced his turkish counterpart that they do not need mediators and this is why we saw mr erdogan coming here to moscow kremlin and having a discussion with like marketing executive director of the ron paul peace institute told r.t. it's in both russia and turkey is interest to ensure that this cease fire holds. we
3:13 am
should all breathe a sigh of relief because truly russia and turkey were on the brink of direct conflict it was careening out of control and i think it was very wise to have called this bilateral meeting to hammer it out because the danger of getting into war and possibly including nato was very real the whole issue of the of the war torn in the province is not that different in the war torn aleppo province which amazingly settled down once it was liberated from the from the control of jihad ists of extremists of al qaida and that's the exact same thing in the province the important thing is that the m. 4 in an m 5 highways will be open up that's important to certainly to russia into syria but let's also remember the air to want is having some problems back home there's a huge brawl in the parliament just yesterday with 2 with the parties fighting each other the opposition parties are not thrilled that everyone has essentially
3:14 am
embedded turkish military forces with al qaida to serve as human shields to prevent the syrians from retaking their own territory he's gone way out on a ledge and i think he's finding himself at the end of his political rope perhaps. story if you 2 whistle blowers up planning a new legal challenge to the wild chemical weapons watchdog that's often a p.c. w. inquiry round that there's this practice run after they went public in the wake of that study often allotted time and in syria 2 years ago they now want a scientific herring and an elected to the director general they accuse the watch talk of ignoring that was. inspect to be annoyed tried on many occasions to meet with you you may also know open haps not that these requests were all denied the reason given by a senior official was it's my role to protect the director general you will never get to speak with him and if you try to go around me to get him there will be
3:15 am
consequences letters to the director of the global chemical weapons watchdog courtesy of the gray zone project there the latest development in a ping pong exchange of correspondence between david and goliath whistleblowers and the o.p.c. w. inspector in ny have tried to resolve our concerns with you in private however this saga has unfortunately escalated to a point where we are now publicly portrayed as adversaries inspectors are now being smeared as the into this is of these values for nothing more than daring to speak out the smearing started back in february with a report in response to what the organization called a breach of confidentiality leaks that casts doubt on the o.p.c. w.'s conclusions about duma they said the gas cylinders were likely place there rather than dropped from an aircraft and that one area was likely not even subjected to a chemical attack but the report barely even touched on any of that the authors were too busy trying to tear the whistleblowers inspectors a and b.
3:16 am
to pieces. inspectors a and b. are not whistleblowers they're individuals who could not accept that their views were not backed but evidence their behaviors even more egregious as they had manifestly incomplete information about the doom and vesta gave their conclusions were erroneous on informed and grown erroneous uninformed that doesn't seem very becoming for 2 guys who are apparently the inspection team leaders why would a pair of the top inspection team leaders both with impeccable record both incidentally from the west and group background who have never set a foot wrong suddenly go rogue did these old circumstances not ring some warning bells they sure are confident in their qualifications but it goes farther than that inspectors a and b. categorically rejects one of the o.p.c. w.'s biggest claims against them that they have pretty much nothing to do with the investigation and no access to important information when i joined the team shortly
3:17 am
after the start of the deployments to do inspect a b. and i continued playing a central role in the overall investigation the final report didn't exactly benefit from the editorial turnaround information was slashed details removed and facts don't explain why it's not like the inspectors didn't try to get answers to their questions before pressing the big red leak button something had gone wrong inside the open c.w. sitter and we wanted you to know it's that simple they even think there might have been a bit of deception at play the investigation was conducted by a british investigator and a lawyer from the us. the activities of the fact finding mission were managed by o. chief of cabinet from fronts whose views are echoed in both the narratives does it not strike you was somewhat biased in that the 3 individuals represent the 3 defendants the 3 countries who were responsible for the missile strikes in response to the allegation of a chemical attack in duma and o.p.c. w a leak and some back and forth later there are still so many questions and few answers
3:18 am
as to what really happened of course we've asked you for its response to the claims and let you know what they say in the meantime though we did speak to former f.b.i. agent whistleblower riley who suspects a smear campaign. the allegation and accusation that these 2 inspectors who were amongst the top experts they were the 1st hand investigators that actually examined the evidence the l a geisha in that they went rogue makes no sense at all and again given that they were amongst the top professionals in it with the expertise in engineering and in chemical weapons these were the top people so it really is really defies of believe ability that they would have gone rogue they and their close to retire you know they have done a many many years of faithful service to the o.p.c. w.
3:19 am
they believe in the mission of truth in times of war truth becomes the 1st casualty and syria is no different at this point it would have to be one side is not telling the truth here and. the entity that changed conclusions of reports would be the suspected entity that is not telling the truth. on the way something fishy is going on in the world around britain the government says it will deploy the navy to apology for fishing vessels one complete. also woman left in the race for the u.s. a democratic election nomination faces a big bottle from her own party i'll tell you more about their stories in just 90 seconds. do you believe in miracles would seem democrats do have to the joe biden surge on
3:20 am
super tuesday for them the fear of the bernie sanders candidate seat may now be contained however this is far from over taking on trial for the no you see count. what else seems wrong. why don't y'all just don't call. me. yet to shape our disdain comes to educate and in games from an equal betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. join me every thursday on the excitement chill and i'll be speaking to get us to the world of politics sports business i'm show business i'll see you then.
3:21 am
welcome back britain says it will deploy the navy to prevent a fishing vessels from and trying its waters it's becoming a key sticking point in the bronx at trade talks as easily now explains. the town of poole on england's south coast is one of the u.k.'s oldest fishing communities and the local economy relies heavily on the fisheries industry it's a calm and a daily town but life could be about to be brutally disrupted if the political rhetoric is to be believed the u.k.'s tory government have warned the e.u. that if their ships try to access british waters they'll deploy the royal navy to keep them out setting the stage for a confrontation on the high seas we have increased. sufficiently
3:22 am
the u.k. is currently in a so-called transition period in the gauche a should have begun which will determine what kind of deal the u.k. will leave with at the end of december this year but when it comes to fishing the 2 sides are still far apart in the months the u.k. wants the e.u. to follow british law and for negotiations to take place annually similar to an agreement they have with norway the you however wants to have a long term agreement with quotas on fishing missy uses the deaf or secretary warned the e.u. against trying to use fisheries as a negotiating chip while the french of hit back saying they're more than ready to get nasty if the u.k. isn't willing to play ball all we played with emotion was drama was passion with symbols and we know how to make it a very i think must about both sides both sides very nice about them playing nasty
3:23 am
could mean the french blockading channel ports and some british fishermen say that the french are provoking the u.k. into taking harsh measures if france decided to take that action. i think that it would just from apology meant that we need to. we need to self manage ourselves and on fully prepared for things which i don't think it would worry that the u.k. fishermen until we should have our own waters back. in the past we have an atom and if it's belgium everyone gets bigger quote than the english fisherman so shanks got to be done if the english fisherman down and if that would be arrested on the other side of the channel the food of mistrust is neutral and the sense is that a confrontation is inevitable. finale we haven't really been informed we hope this case is looking up because if there were no negotiations it would mean a no deal at the end of the year in this case would be excluded from british waters
3:24 am
this would be a disaster for the fishermen of the whole to france but also for french fishermen in general about this year so obviously it is a deal or no deal but i think that if we are going towards a no deal the u.k. as ourselves the european union not only france would lose a loss anyway it is not in our interest so u.k. interests we must find an agreement with great britain. e.u. u.k. negotiations only began formally this week but already the question of fisheries could derail talks and lead to tit for tat retaliations that harm both french and british fishing communities and damage relations between these longtime allies. r.t. in cool. and find a lot of us election focus right now is on how the democrat party choice is pretty much down to white man in their seventy's but congresswoman tulsi cabot is still in
3:25 am
the race let's not forget now she wanted to delegates in american samoa and so makes it through to the next democratic debate but the party executive wants to shift the goalposts on lot of hope and explains. the democratic party's machine has been widely exposed for playing favorites when it comes to presidential candidates the latest example of this is the treatment of tulsa gabbert as a result of these super tuesday vote tulsi gabbert gained a delegate and was thus eligible to appear in the televised debate so the d.n.c. then changed the rules we have 2 more debates of course the special will go up by the time we have the much debate almost 2000 delegates will be allocated and thresh who will reflect where we are in the race as it always has the rules keep changing in order to make sure that tulsi is locked out her supporters poured out their rage on to twitter god forbid told c. gets back on the debate writes translation to see finally hit the debate
3:26 am
qualifications so we've got to do something about that despite the fact there's literally only 5 people left in the race. you must really not want to move to big stage pathetic the bias against tulsa gabbert is rather extreme media reports pretend that she doesn't even exist they claim that elizabeth warren is somehow the only female candidate and you're going to say something about elizabeth warren is she going to benefit by being the only woman left now that any club or shares out elizabeth warren recently dropped out of the race so if the democrats want to keep with their message of inclusion they should have telsey gabbert on the stage but they seem to have a lock her out just like they've done in the past furthermore tulsi gabbert is currently suing hillary clinton for publicly smearing her as a russian asset now some people suspect that the bias against tulsa gabbert is rooted in the fact that back in 2016 she endorsed bernie sanders and did not line up behind hillary clinton furthermore it's worth pointing out that she's been
3:27 am
rather critical of the debate process and the lack of inclusion back in november tolson gabbert used her permitted debate appearance to go after d.n.c. favorite candidate camila harris and her record as a criminal prosecutor the facts were damning and the harris campaign shut down shortly afterwards however it seems to be tulsa's antiwar stance taken as she is a u.s. service member that is the real un forgivable clincher she wants to and regime change wars and cut military spending congress and just passed a $738000000000.00 war budget instead of providing for the health the safety the security of the well being of our people and our planet the democratic party's leadership seems to disagree with her they favor regime change operations and bloated military expenditures the democratic party favors continued military operations around the world done in the name of defending democracy and at home
3:28 am
they don't mind arbitrarily changing the rules to make sure that democracy doesn't get in the way of this vitally important war agenda caleb mop and r.t. new york cop how things are looking for now i'll be back of coolest at the top of the hour sit tight there because up next it's a few. president . of the us. every week. student. money.
3:29 am
hello and welcome to missionaries in the service shevardnadze and all time is running out for us to handle the environmental disarray that we have created my guest today is convinced there is a way out we simply need to design it while i'm here and what artist innovator creative thinker at all is a heart that in his studio. down it's very yeah you're. right so i suppose there is no like traditional way of explaining what you do it's like a 21st century sort of merger because you you know environmentalism urban design technology into something that doesn't quite have like one name like how you name what you do yourself i don't know explore let me magnet more into let's try to
3:30 am
let's try to figure out what it could be done with and what i'm the son of a math teacher kicked out a foreign art school twice most of architecture lot of people telling me what i want could never be done and it is my job to prove them wrong so you're right i think the house and. you know. so those i think i think it's sort of interesting to make connections between art between the zine between architecture between technology and making new links in order to activate the world around us i think indeed when i was young when i was 16 my parents always suggest a truce if the jews are to science or i don't want to choose i want to do it all so maybe it's more about trying to find the combination or making new connections between all those disciplines and be a hybrid of all of those actually at with them over time so you can really do everything you want there's no limit to it you know when you're always sort of an amateur trying to become an expert.
