3:02 pm
each other culturally story clear linguistically just you name it in 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. alexander lukashenko asked 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 the reserve force won't be used unless extremist elements hiding between political slogans cross certain boundaries and get down to
3:03 pm
straight tells assaults sitting 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
3:04 pm
to it and by the way the belarusian president says he's open to constitutional 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 called help but agree with that. talking about foreign meddling vitamin 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 are becoming less rocky
3:05 pm
funmi cécile because at least there is no violence in the streets the protests are peaceful and it seems both russia and belarus would like to keep things this way. the russian prosecutor general's office has asked the german authorities to share their findings over the reported poisoning of alexina belli and also said that so far it found no evidence of any criminal act against the russian opposition figure among 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 in the valley 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
3:06 pm
a clinic in berlin aleksei in a vial and he was poisoned however they exactly substance remains unknown now doctors who were treating a lot of the before he was evacuated to 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 only saying 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 alex and the vitamin e. 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
3:07 pm
a role will hopefully help clarify this case. i think russia has its own interests in sorting out this situation we expect mosco to contribute to clarification of the month so well that 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 all thought poisoning off. before any of the facts even. came out headlines accusing the kremlin and sometimes even vladimir 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 alex in the valley is currently in a medically induced coma in the hospital in germany however his condition is nonlife threatening in discussing developments with journalist and broadcaster neil clark and also author in russia analyst martin mccauley both feel there's been too
3:08 pm
much jumping to conclusions. we have to wait. we really think it will take longer for the germans to come up with some explanation 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 i did the new agents in the country so it was. 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 poisoned of course a lot of people who got an ax to grind we russia wouldn't wouldn't except that whatever happens many people have already jumped forgotten stage 8 even the on stage be it said well of course it was the kremlin it will not necessarily there were a number of a number of people who have a motive perhaps of poisoning him he was an anti corruption campaign even made lots
3:09 pm
of enemies and there might be even people who thought that attacking him would beat sort of backdoor way of getting at the kremlin know the kremlin would be the number doesn't want suspect so there's all kinds of things that need unraveling before we start to jump to any conclusions. here today since 1000 year old harry done died in a car accident thank you kate attorney general says the american woman accused of killing him could face a virtual trial. are we done died after his motorbike was hit by a car reportedly being driven on the wrong side of the road behind the wheel was the wife of a u.s. diplomat well of charged with causing death by dangerous driving she had fled the u.k. claiming diplomatic immunity that led to the dunn family having to seek a private prosecution against the foreign secretary after it was revealed british officials let's leave the country jody edwards dashti spoke to harry's parents who say they're not giving up the hardest thing for me is having no
3:10 pm
control over when you're going to cry no to camilla big guy caught off guard i don't show much emotion very easy but since her is gone. the most smallest thing i know i'll just start crying or can't stop myself from doing it because marge feel. the frustration or feel because our own are can't control it it only feels like yesterday since that was a foot carry state it's a 1000000 and. you know any of it and. it feels 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
3:11 pm
mountains because having now closed the loophole the legal loophole that allowed 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 les 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 area shows us the family that know what the family would have to fight the way we have nobody else now it's the crime such as once was done and walk free is a proud thing to know that. is part of the the new ruling
3:12 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 having himself in the promise i made him when we lost in 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 do organ donation and someone has to be held responsible for that nobody in this world should be able to take a life i walk away a year on from harry's death the family is still unable to come to terms with that loss. reserves. are truly making the rebirths
3:13 pm
special special not. just for loss he enjoyed life enjoyed meeting people he was larger than life as they say was he was he were. could have been more proud of her sloan year before last that primary school. and i were 10 and this is neutral is that you can tell that. he was beat home who was fearful that faced the boy inside and out and. it paid could. still not quite that it would hit a man on the wall. and you know that. and it can't.
3:14 pm
this is coming up to 40 minutes past the hour here on the way the chaos. shuttering their premises to protect their livelihoods the situation remains volatile in that city we'll have the latest on the wisconsin protests 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. dramatic to follow only closely and. i don't see how that strategy will be successful very. time to sit down and talk. if you go to the symphony
3:15 pm
orchestras warming up any musician is is tuning his or her instrument so you hear this year all these sounds or noise but it but it's it's a constant it's disorganized and then the band the orchestra plays and you get the music so with the brain does it with the maker tubules you is organized orchestrated fees one collapses. and i can protest as in the american city of once again defied a curfew imposed onto the streets for a 4th night after police shot a black man multiple times. do catholics just
3:16 pm
have to carry on statutes even to the fact. that this isn't. kind of. the conducive to getting caught. up in the back. i. am. very peaceful protests positive message. box matter much. that's actually very lovely nice care because. that's the paradox that sir thank you last night was for the. 2 sickness.
3:17 pm
and i mean. the main for just heard from earlier tonight has. left just a few minutes ago and as people are driving away the u.s. marshal said you know should be. conducting a very targeted traffic stop. i assume arresting. people targeted for arrest. because of the curfew today. rides of various days. u.s. marshals are right down the street as well as here should be. this is the 2nd stuff that i personally see but i gather there's more happening across the city. although wednesday night was generally peaceful it does follow the days of violence riots as we've been seeing looting stores as well as vandalizing importing cars the shop owners in the city now. face a new grim reality. is that when we heard about it.
3:18 pm
pretty pretty quickly on monday afternoon we decided that it was time to start putting up the windows he can somehow materials come and help us to sort of how the windows we did close early that day so we've been closing early every every evening and a schedule protests so that we're only open during the daytime unfortunately but because we're in such a business model to stay still for the rest of the city closing actually we're staying boarded up until until it gets resolved until there's some sort of result. of the mother of jacob blake who's shooting spock be on rest has appealed for calm . if. he knew what was going on in the cars that got all the violence and that this roxanne. would be very high on. the 29 year old's family say the incident has left him paralyzed from the waist
3:19 pm
down and he shot blake 7 times from behind incidents make him one of the growing number of symbols of black lives matter of movement moral not that often kind of open. why 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 now were recently there was the case of george fluid that sparked protests around the country a similar situation where a black man was callously choked to death. ok thanks to. you and. the brotherhood giving me to go. out on my own again are you going there not one for the night when they're not around that the freedoms are going to perform for
3:20 pm
whom. they really live after the killing of george floyd protest sooner upped it not just in the united states but across the world. george floyd ses has been painted 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 of. justice will be served today we are standing here for justice as we bring forward the george floyd justice in
3:21 pm
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 however the result has been only making people angry or that staying out doesn't seem to be
3:22 pm
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 was now another black man jacob blake was shot from behind by police officers in 2 no show wisconsin is now paralyzed in response to yet another horrendous incident violence has swept the city protesters 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 connect bra. to put in different kinds of political ideology so there's no surprise that it's happening so quickly because it's pretty much instead
3:23 pm
out to be this way in any state unfortunately at that particular point to be a lone protester happening for political purposes and also for money is not really big black cloud a matter that's not even really the case if that was the case what particular to those days are long gone. thing in the us teachers in the state of indiana are assuming the sheriff's department over drills designed to replicate school shootings they claim that children and staff of 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 them mount a fool see use which was significant resulting in errors of bruising bleeding welts and broken skin new known to force is necessary to properly conduct an active shooter training for non-war enforcement participants. let's break down what the
3:24 pm
drills do involve they can include actual weapons although they do use blanks and so they can also involve aggressive acting and special makeup however staff and students complain that it's proving to be too close to the rail fake now the situation at one school in particular is proving to be a case in point to teach is that they go far too much for them they say they were forced to quit what was even diagnosed with post-traumatic stress following complaints police say they've stopped using pellet guns the drills are supposed to prepare stuff and students for a potential attack after numerous shootings in recent years.
3:25 pm
but anti terror expert and legal analyst jennifer to master questions the timing of the teacher's complaint. since march april may of this year we're looking at a concerted effort by 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 protect 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. next meet the russian men with tough job but an eye for flamboyant fashion the work.
3:26 pm
look forward to talking to you all. that technology should work for people. a robot must obey the orders given by human beings except where such conflict with the 1st law. should be very careful about official intelligence and the point is to trade. on various jobs and with artificial intelligence will summon the demon. must protect its own existence is the excuse for the.
3:27 pm
same wrong. rowles just don't call. me. yet to shape out these days to come to agitate and indeed equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart. choose to look for common ground. throughout its history just how does this with the self-proclaimed islamic state terrorist group have recruited up to 30000 foreigners from all over the world to fight for them. in this. thousands of russian citizens left their country to join the terrorists often bringing wives and children with them. when the bell idea isn't lost on you that
3:28 pm
the lesson you give no. more new to the moon hundreds of children and widows were held captive all disappeared. back in russia those children's families wait them search for them. in the troubled 19 seventies a group of killers rampage through parts of northern ireland that was coordinated loyalist attacks particularly catholic population in belfast tens of thousands were forced to flee their homes and what was striking to put these attacks was that the are you see the police actually took part in the attacks so instead of preventing it they were active participants in the burning of full streets in belfast at that
3:29 pm
i think more than a 100 innocent civilians were murdered as the review concern years and we found out more i was surprised about the extent. to which the collusion was involved in some of those cases they killers would later be named. i think it went to the very very top i think it is. the water where. all the patients you. give the go ahead. c. h. h h. h. h h h. h h h. don't know your skin
