hello welcome to world news i'm calling with the story. line where russia stands over the unfolding situation. and to remind you of. the long standing president claimed another election victory position says it was rigged and the rippin large protest ever since reports next. that i'm a putin has said that for russia it is important for all sides of the story here to be put out there both of the story of those who are supporting the incumbent government and those who are opposed to it you see belarus and russia are really close to each other not just geographically just the 1st layer they're important and close to each other culturally story clear linguistically just you name it in
2:02 pm
many many aspects so according to the russian president for moscow it is important it does matter as to what happens here in minsk here in belarus but at the same time lattimer putin has said that ultimately the fate of this nation should be in the hands of its people that the russian citizens should decide which way their country goes where it fares he didn't shed some light though as to under which circumstances russia might and is likely to get involved in the events here including russia's security forces and riot police. and legs on the cost me to form a law enforcement reserve force and i did but we also agreed that it won't be called into action unless the situation gets out of control and unless extremist elements i'd like to emphasize that the reserve force won't be used unless extremist elements hiding between political slogans cross certain boundaries and
2:03 pm
get down to straight ells assaults setting vehicles houses banks on fire trying to take over administrative buildings and so on at the same time lattimer putin has also said that right now he doesn't see a needed to get involved for these reserve forces to be shipped to better us and he expressed hope that things say as they are that things don't come to it but this is a very clear message to any members of the better russian opposition who might get any idea as they have been warned so to speak at the same time lattimer putin called the by the russian government to. dialogue he said that with this many people protesting in the streets the government has to react the government has to listen if we're operating on the assumption that all parties involved will be sensible enough to calmly find the solution without resorting to extremes of course that people have taken to the streets you have to take that into account and react to it and by the way the belarusian president says he's open to constitutional
2:04 pm
reform a new constitution new general and presidential elections based on that new constitution but you shouldn't violate the existing constitution the supreme court has ruled that the creation of certain bodies not in visits by the current constitution which are trying to hijack power is absolutely unacceptable and you can't help but agree with that. talking about foreign meddling vitamine putin has said that he believes that russia is more neutral is more impartial compared to the european union and the united states for instance the e.u. had previously allocated 53000000 euros to help the better russian people as they put it the e.u. has also recently announced that when deciding as to how to spend this money they will be coordinating things with the opposition coordination council a body that doesn't have any official status here in belarus also according to the russian president things are starting to calm down they're becoming less rocky
2:05 pm
finally say so because at least there's no violence in the streets the protests are peaceful and it seems both russia and belarus would like to keep things this way. russian prosecutor general's office has asked the german authorities to share their findings over the reported poisoning of alexina valmy it also said that so far it's found no evidence of any criminal act against the russian opposition figure ramon cotter of has more on today's development. russia's prosecutor general's office have issued a statement saying that so far they have not found any criminal wrongdoing in the case alec say let's have a listen to the details of that statement despite a preliminary investigation that was initiated years august the 20th no evidence of an intentional criminal act against nouvelle me has been established and new evidence that would allow us to classify this incident under criminal law has been found so far according to the officers that showed it's a clinic in berlin aleksei and that by the way was spores and however they exactly
2:06 pm
substance remains unknown now doctors who were treating a lot of the before he was evacuated germany are saying that they don't have any evidence to support the claim of their german colleagues however they are assured that they will provide any data and information when it becomes necessary initially there were calls from europe to begin a probe into and they say that while these poisoning however russia called for restraint until all of the facts are in now russian judiciary officials have asked for legal assistance from their german counterparts and requested information from the clinic in berlin on the diagnosis of aleksey in the viney now a russian prosecutor general's office have also announced that germany is ready to cooperate with russia on the situation without saying a lot of the german foreign minister heikal moss says that most calls or all will hopefully help clarify this case. i think russia has its own interests in sorting
2:07 pm
out this situation we expect most good to contribute to clarification of the months other was the conjecture and speculation that remain with me for the damage the situation between germany and russia but also between the e.u. and russia german and other western media were 1st to accuse the kremlin inning off . before any of the facts even. came out headlines accusing the kremlin and sometimes even of letting near putin personally dominated and continued to dominate mainstream media in the west and that's without any facts or even a hint of proof meanwhile at least in the valley is currently in a medically induced coma in the hospital in germany however his condition is non-life threatening we've been discussing developments with journalist and broadcaster neil clark and also author of in russia analyst martin mccauley both
2:08 pm
feel there's been too much jumping to conclusions. we have to wait. we really think it will take longer for the germans to come up with their make malaysian and we're still in the in-between stage where the prosecutor general motors who say we have europeans and the germans are saying we think it's close but at present we're not able to identify new agents and therefore the kondraty said it was going to let's let's be honest given the geopolitical context of this then whatever the russians come up with is going to be criticize an attack because if there was a full russian investigation it came out and said it wasn't poison of course a lot of people who got an axe to grind with russia wouldn't wouldn't except that whatever happens many people have already jumped forgotten stage 8 going to even be on stage be it someone of course it was the kremlin it will not necessarily there were a number of a number of people who have who have a motive perhaps of poisoning him he was an anti corruption campaign evade lots of
2:09 pm
enemies and there might be even people who thought that attacking him would beat a sort of backdoor way of getting at the kremlin know the kremlin would be the motive isn't one suspect so there's all kinds of things that need unraveling before we start to jump to any conclusions. here to the day since 19 year old harry dunn died in a car accident the u.k.'s attorney general says the american woman accused of killing him could face a virtual trial how he done died after his motorbike was hit by a car reportedly being driven on the wrong side of the road behind the wheel was answer colas the wife of a u.s. diplomat although charged with causing death by dangerous driving she had fled the u.k. claiming diplomatic immunity it's led to the dumb family seeking a private prosecution against the foreign secretary after it was revealed the british officials lets a conus leave the country shaadi edwards daschle spoke to harry's parents who say they're not giving up. the hardest thing for me is having no control
2:10 pm
over when you're going to cry an hour the camilla big guy caught off guard i don't show my motions are easy but since her is gone it can type the most smallest thing and i'll just start crying or can't stop myself wondering as much film. the frustration of hell because our current account controlled it it only feels like yesterday since that with a foot carry stake. it's a 1000000 and. you know any difficult if it's that and. feel like it. harry's family are fighting to bring security aspect to the u.k. to face justice 6 months after his death she was charged with death by dangerous driving but britain's extradition request was rejected by the u.s. it's been a tough tough battle for this family we've had to not just climb mountains but move mountains because having now closed the loophole the legal loophole that allowed
2:11 pm
her to escape she was the last person to escape it is absolutely clear now that the united states government does not have either a legal or moral dog to stand on. the authorities and the system completely let her respond they down this family lost their son and they were treated like dirt on the bottom of their shoe that legal loophole allowed secure lists to claim diplomatic immunity as the wife of a u.s. staff member but after discussions between the u.s. and u.k. the family at the base cannot be prosecuted going forward thankfully with the harries an amendment in the treaty a few weeks back absolutely every a shows us the family that know what the family would have to fight the way we have nobody else now can commit the crime such as once kilis is done and walk free is a proud thing to know that. is part of the the new ruling
2:12 pm
history books thankfully that cherry's some of ours legacy now but despite that deborah of hope it doesn't help a charlatan tim get justice for harvey himself in the promise i made him when we lost him that night just as the desire in the pit of your stomach to complete that promise take you tell you a poorly you look at me to get in just this twenties lay in the. new life left in. literally every bone in its body parts. every organ damage to the point we couldn't even to contain a ship and someone has to be held responsible for that nobody in this world should be able to take a life i will call way a year on from harry's death the family is still unable to come to terms with that loss. reserves. are truly making the reverse
2:13 pm
special special not. a little lost for a lot he enjoyed life enjoyed meeting people he was larger than life as they say was he was he were. a good bit more prouder of a so slow year before last that primary school and i were 10. and this is not true is that you can tell that. he was beat who was. the boy inside and out and. he could. still not quite that it would hit a man on the wall. and you know that that. and it can't it. coming up to 40 minutes
2:14 pm
2:15 pm
join me every thursday on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to us from the world of politics for this list i'm showbusiness i'll see you then. hello again protesters in the american city once again defied a curfew imposed onto the streets for a 4th night off the police shot a black man multiple times for the weekend. to catholics didn't
2:16 pm
2:17 pm
night was forever thanks for. sickness. and has me. i mean for just for from earlier tonight as i. left just a few minutes ago as people. driving away the u.s. marshals and you know should be. conducting a very targeted traffic stop. i assume arresting. people targeted for arrest. because. the curfew today. rides on freeze days. u.s. marshals are right down the street as well as here should be. this is the 2nd stuff that i've personally seen that i've had of this more across the city although wednesday night was generally peaceful it does follow days of violence riots as have been seen looting stores as well as vandalizing and torching cars shop owners in the city now face
2:18 pm
a grim new reality. so when you heard about it. pretty pretty big on monday afternoon we decided that it was time to start working on the windows he had some outers command on just a part of how. we did close early that day so we've been closing early every. step of protest so that we're only open during the daytime unfortunately but because we're in such a business and need to stay still for the rest of the. closing plea we're staying boarded up. until it gets resolved until there's some sort of result. or the mother of jacob blake who shooting sparked the unrest has appealed for calm . if. you knew what was going on in the cars that all the violence in this ride. would be very high. the 29 year old family say the incident has left him paralyzed from the
2:19 pm
waist down in a shop like 7 times from behind incidents made him one of the growing number of symbols of the black lives massive movement more on that next from kind of hope and why i can't breathe 3 short words but they would go on to be a rallying cry against racial injustice and police brutality these were the words said by eric garner as he was dying in a police choke hold that was 6 years ago that history has a habit of repeating itself and now we're recently there was the case of george floyd that sparked protests around the country a similar situation where a black man was callously choked to death. ok thanks. you. gave a. good given me to go. out in my hometown
2:20 pm
are you married next month or not in the uk or the hour that the freedoms are already in your car or a little. bit when you live after the killing of george floyd protest sooner wrapped it not just in the united states but across the world. george floyd say's has been tainted and put on display people even get baptized at the site where he was killed politicians have now joined the movement there's no excuse for what happened to george floyd and many. justice will be served today we
2:21 pm
are standing here for justice as we bring forward the george floyd justice in palais thing at a lot of the grandstanding from politicians has not really translated into real concrete actions less than a month later re shar brooks was shot and killed and once again the streets were filled with protests now politicians supporting the movement of been criticized for ignoring the looting the vandalism and the gun violence associated with the demonstrations. donald trump has called the protesters anarchists and vandals and sent a special police force of federal officers in to crush them i whenever the result
2:22 pm
has been only making people angry or staying out doesn't seem to be a real option either videos have emerged showing a random citizens trying to enjoy a night out being harassed by a black lives matter activists i was. now another black man jacob blake was shot from behind by police officers into a no show wisconsin is now paralyzed in response to yet another horrendous incident and violence has slammed the city protestors have been in the streets for months since the killing of george floyd it demanded that things change that things seem to be pretty much the same except for the fact that the country is deeply polarized as soon as something happens doesn't really matter who's at fault who did it right who dare wrong there's going to be an immediate reaction for a variety of different reasons people are out there trying to steal people they're out there trying to in a row. to put in different cows of political ideology so there's no surprise that
2:23 pm
it's happening so quickly because it's pretty much ends doubt to be this way in any state unfortunately at this particular point to be a lone protester have been for political purposes and also for money is not really work allowed a matter that's not even really the case if that was the case what particular to those days are long gone. teachers in the state of indiana suing the sheriff's department over drills designed to replicate school shootings they claim the children and stuff have been left traumatized at the time of the shooting plaintive s'posed no threat of danger to officers and were not under arrest interfering with bullies duties officers made no efforts to mitigate their mount to foresee use which was significant resulting in errors of bruising bleeding welts and broken skin new known to forces nurses of the proper we conduct an active shooter training for normal enforcement participants and let's break down what the
2:24 pm
drills do involve they can include actual weapons although blanks are used but they can also involve aggressive acting and special makeup and staff and students are complaining that perhaps a little too close to the real thing in fact the situation or one school is a very much a case in point 2 teachers there said that the drills got so much they had to quit one of them was even diagnosed with having post-traumatic stress now following complaints the police say that they've stopped using pellet guns and these drills are supposed to prepare staff and students for a potential attack after numerous real shootings in recent years.
2:25 pm
but i have to tell x. person legal analyst jennifer domestic questions the timing of the teacher's complaint since march april may of this year we're looking at a concerted effort by and many people throughout the united states to demonize our local law enforcement to demonize police officers that's not to say that all police officers individually are perfect by any means and nobody in any profession is perfect but our local law enforcement definitely helps force the rule of law and helps a protector and serve our societies and communities so with this demonization concerted demonization defunding of police departments that's why this particular timing of this lawsuit seems a little bit questionable given that for the past year many local law enforcement and police departments have been engaging in these kinds of drills ok that you're all for this the attic someone shows up next i'll be back it's update you on
2:26 pm
2:27 pm
