find themselves worlds apart we look for common ground. as protests continue in neighboring lithuania weighs in passing a bill declaring alexander lukashenko presidency illegitimate and calling on world powers to recognize his wife taken off. life in less than one minute. also this hour caught in a vicious circle germany denounce russia investigate what happened to opposition activists alexina bounding into. its data germany sends it straight to the global chemical weapons watchdog instead. and the e.u. threatens legal action against britain if it goes ahead with legislation. but the british government says it will not back down despite earlier admitting that the
2:01 pm
bill would breach international law. and i says the evening of 9 here in moscow i'm calling bray with the big stories am reaction that were across here at the international 1st the lithuanian parliament has passed a bill powers to recognize the opposition leader in belarus as the rightful president it comes after a month of unrest in belarus following president has contested election victory let's go back now live to. our events panning out where you also night. still tense situation here you know a lot of passions on both sides and very little give now this international development. recognizing that you have the. democratically
2:02 pm
elected president of belarus. philip. parliament calls on the international community to support the demand from state law on a 2nd of the leader elected by the belorussian people and from the coordination council established at her invitation as the only legitimate representatives of the belorussian people for holding new transparent and democratic presidential and parliamentary elections we call on the international community to consider any domestic or foreign policy action by the illegitimate leader of burglaries alexander lukashenko aimed at legitimizing his power and concluding new agreements with russia which restrict the sovereignty of the belarusian people to be a crime against his people. previously. the the european union foreign minister he had said
2:03 pm
that it would be impossible to to to to you know to count the votes to see who had won the election the he had also said that. the fact that the european union wouldn't recognize i the look like president nicolas maduro of venezuela they wouldn't recognize him as the legitimate president but these people controlled their countries controlled the governments of the european union would have to deal with that there's also been a turnabout in the way that latinos self viewed you know her future political future because immediately after the election after leaving for poland she said that she wasn't considering running again that you know she she she didn't see a political future for self and now this being the turnabout and she's making statements and she's ads are saying the people of belarus and the people of russia so certainly there's been
2:04 pm
a drastic change in the way that things are viewed from her cabinet and from her supporters such as lithuania which has come out brazenly recognized the democratically elected leader here in belarus the situation nevertheless is still tense as i mentioned every day we have a spontaneous protest earlier today. a protest. ugly with police and security services turning up trying to trying to break up out break up an answer an anti-government protest the protests is in the church in the they talked and eventually both went their separate ways but they were upset that approved government protests that happened behind me that nobody asked them to disperse that they went on their merry way. as i say passions are high there's a lot of bad blood between the different sides the different cabs. but the opposition and we expect big protests this weekend.
2:05 pm
ok keeping an eye on what's happening in minute for us thanks very much for that marotta. well last hour geopolitical analyst writer office told me he believes lithuania would have made its declaration in support of taken off sky without the backing of larger powers. it's a signal that is being shown to go and it shall show. of force is major forces political forces behind because little you know wouldn't take such a measure which is illegitimate according to international law if there was no support by the european union or who knows. and i see this. not too intelligent step. too blunt because it shows clearly that the situation in. belarus is not only divided one side is
2:06 pm
also in danger of being taken over by external interests therefore i see it in political terms and not trunks of elections in minsk. yemenis handing over its data on the election of any case to the global chemical weapons watchdog well in an earlier urge russia to investigate the alleged poisoning of the opposition activist while also declining to hand over any evidence to moscow. got more details earlier from correspondent don a quarter. just seems like this political dispute over the alleged poisoning of alec saying of all me is entering its next chapter germany's handing over the evidence it claims to have to the o.p.c. w. in the kremlin has already said it's not happy about it. it looks like. but it's not. of the. kinds of clinics. it's not the case. but one that was germany's having trouble sharing the information with us we have
2:07 pm
no idea what the 100 over to the w. . so this is basically the essence of what's been going on over the last couple weeks berlin saying they've established than of all me was poisoned and demanding that russia investigate while at the same time moscow is asking to see that that alleged evidence and which they actually need to open a criminal investigation if there needs to be one and that just being ignored don't give our viewers a little background how did this all begin well it started when the volley was flying from siberia to moscow in mid august 28th else seriously ill now the russian doctors who treated him in the siberian city of they said they didn't find any toxins at his in his system but when he was airlifted to germany the doctors there said that they did in indeed find a chemical agent in his blood they say that it was not a chalk specifically a nerve agent that was developed in the u.s.s.r. and now that the o.p.c. w. is involved the whole situation really seems a lot more suspicious for moscow since the organization's words doesn't hold much
2:08 pm
weight with the kremlin if your p.c. w. is in deep crisis what with the. activities and extreme politicization and this didn't take place just today is still a long time ago the practice of reaching consensus decisions has been completely forgotten and the organizations handling of the 2018 alleged chemical attack in duma syria was what soured its relationship with moscow a number of inconsistency is were left on the. dressed and according to whistleblowers that came from the organization they said that anyone who dissented from within was silenced but nevertheless russia's representative to the o.p.c. w. has said that the kremlin will be willing to work with the organization on this case. some of the fallout from this senior politicians in germany are calling on the government to pull out of the north stream 2 project over the novelli case the gas pipeline connecting russia to germany is due to be ready by the end of this year the head of the german parliament economic affairs an energy committee
2:09 pm
believes that abandoning it now would be a disaster. for north stream 2 is not putin's project it involves a large number of european companies and it's designed to ensure the security if europe's gas supply to question this project now is to shoot ourselves in the foot it is certainly not in the interests of germany or europe if there is a decision to end the project companies will be able to sue those who made the decision in this case the german government and of course it will affect gas prices it must be clearly understood that this is not a game that the pressure coming from the us is already enough in my view so we are strongly resisting the american sanctions that have been imposed on companies and individuals involved in the pipeline construction this is against international law and we don't accept it i can see the many people who might not have fully understood the story thinking now will show them but i think it's completely wrong 1st of all we need to establish what really happened because i don't think germany
2:10 pm
no i think we should respond appropriately to the russians request for legal assistance we obviously received such a request but according to the russians it is so for going on. around $13000.00 migrants have been left without shelter after the largest refugee camp in greece burned to the ground a fire swept through the maria campaign in the island of less boss on tuesday greek officials say it was started by residents the facility had space for around 2000 people but it was holding more than 6 times that number and it was recently the focus of local anchor refugees fell to observe a 2 week run a virus lock down the global migration and the placement lead of the red cross told me that the e.u. needs to step in to avert a huge. military and crisis. this is been going on too long and this is why during pursue this morning through the wife of a president that we've been calling on all actors also the holders and including of course the e.u. is your member states and to to support our greece in in funding
2:11 pm
a solution to what is in reality a problem that has been going on for far too long what we are asking is that people are allowed to move to the mainland and i know how to. accommodate in seclusion as much as possible and that particularly the most vulnerable such a high number of. the what we would like to see their european states member states from the e.u. . provide more sort of direct here support to the greek authorities and exploring opportunities for a relocation of the. french president's being accused of ocracy for removing his face mask during a meeting with students despite a law requiring them to be born in public and to make matters worse emanuel mccrum began to cough.
2:12 pm
the president coughs outside of his mines constrictors out his hand to take and return a glass of water straight after no jail no hand washing what can we hope for macro can't stand the fabric masks which is sparingly distributed to teaches however he only spoke for 5 minutes with his what it teaches have to say who forced to speak with one sometimes for 8 hours per day that the president is laughing at the world what are we expecting that the video to be broadcasted schools will be saying that
2:13 pm
should not be done. just as france in the world price for a 2nd wave of the pandemic mascot skeptics are rallying as charlotte to ben to get reports next. masks are just a look around on the streets of paris everywhere people are following the rules but what if you're one of those people who has questioned the whole idea of wearing a mask all day effective do they prevent the transmission of 19 and what are you one of those people who doesn't just question this in private but has actually gone to a protest about that as attack on germany's democracy protesters from a demo against the country's coronavirus restrictions try to storm the german parliament. this is how the mainstream media these years and she locked down protesters has spent the afternoon
2:14 pm
terrorizing police it will be made of people. people who think the coronavirus does not exist hundreds of vaccine activists and conspiracy theorists put their faith in science instead of conspiracy theories if they want to avoid getting covert one team that's being backed up it seems fine a study conducted via facebook carried out by those who enjoy his foundation it found that the typical anti mascot here in france is a woman in her fifties she's educated and supports the yellow vests she'd refused to have a corona virus vaccine if it was available and she believes in conspiracy theories most probably has been the most politicized. in the control and i think it's because it has a different meaning and between the politicians and the scientific i've learned 'd a lot of confusion among the general public but when it comes to mosques dig
2:15 pm
a bit deeper and you find that 3 of the 4 main reasons that respondents gave to objecting to wearing them were not by. ups and totally unreasonable. they were mosques cause breathing difficulties well while of course you can breathe while wearing a mask some people have complained that when it's hot out all they've stepped up the pace wearing a mask isn't the most comfortable or experiences to they are a hive of bacteria well yes there is bacteria all around us and that's why it's recommended to wash masks regularly or change them free they are useless in preventing 19 contamination the jury is perhaps still live on this one i say that as there is still no consensus that a governmental level here in europe as to whether or not face masks are an essential to in combat in the spread of 19 so while in france and germany for
2:16 pm
example why did usage of face masks has been recommended or made obligatory in the netherlands there was a short trial of mask wearing in busy cities was carried out that seems ended while the dutch study their effect if this sweeping of course went totally against the grain of the country's top epidemiologist threw his weight behind the new mask policy saying this is very dangerous to believe facemasks would change the game when it comes to. even the w h which made a u. turn and is now recommending face masks says this we still don't know how much protective value fabric must have for the wearer that's why when you wear a mask you're protecting others and when others where the mass they're protecting you we're still in the midst of the pandemic in the past several months the medical
2:17 pm
the scientific advice has been a constant merry go round so is it so unreasonable. some people choose to question more i think because of the conflict conflicting statements from politician answer on the one health organization as well as from the scientific community he had to do quite a bit of confusion and uncertainty in the general public and that led to some not only distrust but also a bit of flaring up in the journal. and that has i think probably primarily contributed into a more aggressive to work by aggressive behavior toward the face covering. this is a taste of the head the britain of brussels are on a collision course over a brick said trade deal the u.k. admits would break the law it's all next story when we come back.
2:18 pm
when else should seem wrong. when all wrongs just don't call. me all the things you have to seep out these days because education and in detroit equals betrayed. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the a lot of misinformation amongst the trader traders they thought they were getting a free share of. it's really fascinating to see really learning curve among teenagers and 20 somethings about how stock markets work and you know
2:19 pm
experience is a great teacher and that usually means losing a lot of money but that's also a very good teacher. again the european union has threatened to take legal action against the u.k. you fit goes ahead with a new bill that would override the brics a divorce treaty the british government issued an immediate response saying it will not drop the legislation despite earlier admitting that it clashes with international law. and westminster has the story. well it's almost as though the e.u. couldn't quite believe what was happening when it got wind of exactly what the u.k. is attempting to do so essentially the british government is trying to reinterpret the special arrangements made for north and i meant in the veteran agreement the
2:20 pm
e.u. would essentially say it's as if the u.k. is trying to rip up the withdrawal agreement that the u.k. and the e.u. spent so long trying to rectify and in turn the e.u. is saying to the u.k. you have a 20 day deadline to completely u. turn on this they argue it's an attempt to override the what george agreement the withdrawal agreements contains number of mechanisms the legal room of these 2 gents of oil ations of the legal obligations contained in the text which the european union will not be shy in using so for the e.u. it's almost its worst nightmare they say the u.k. has totally broken violated international law they've also broken trust and also risks the future relationship with the e.u. to. plus they say of course this is an extremely bad violation of the very withdrawal agreement as well now it's all about the u.k. deciding as i say to try and reinterpret this special arrangement made for northern ireland almost essentially saying that ministers in essence can export declarations of goods from britain to you know the nile and while that might seem like
2:21 pm
a nice option on paper even the united kingdom is admitting it is a violation. in a very specific limits we're going. to disappoint your concept. choirboy school for the very short you do foreign circumstances so well brandon lewis is accepting a slight misdemeanor his swell of braverman the attorney general she said in response that the difficult and highly exceptional circumstances it's important to remember remember the fundamental principles of parliamentary sovereignity we've also got a government response as well to the e.u. saying that parliament would not be acting unconstitutionally enacting the bill and it is allowed to discharge its treaty obligations in good faith they would argue that the internal market bill is in good faith they argue it's designed to try and unify the u.k.'s 4 nations and therefore that is the crux of why they're trying to get this bill forward next week all m.p.'s will be voting on it they say that it is
2:22 pm
really designed as i say to try and unite the country so there is the argument there that maybe potentially the u.k. is trying to apply a lot of pressure on to the european union so that they climbed down on their position as we know the talks are in a stalemate position so they're trying to maybe get some wiggle room to see if they you try and climb down on some of their demands having said that it's caused a huge huge uproar in many diplomatic circles and sending shock waves politically. the strategy and behavior of the british government was one of brinkmanship was one of threatening to crush oshie you know if if you don't if we don't get to an agreement we might go come because i knew that sort of thing trust has been eroded . tension has been created don't have been created and that's not conducive to solid because. we didn't want to deal with any cost we urge britain to work with us constructively in foreign compromises the interests of both sides any of them by
2:23 pm
britain to undermine the agreement would have serious consequences so this mission has led to an absolute torrent of criticism and weighing in as the former prime minister to resign mayor of course has been a very huge figure in the negotiations she herself says that this bill would undermine the trust between the e.u. and the united kingdom and that's a position that. the european commission president has also reiterated she says it does undermine trust between britain and the bloc but burning bridges with the european union may not be that much of a surprise but this political stunt seems to have further consequences because now we're hearing from across the pond the united states is warning london that if indeed this bill violates the good friday agreement well there'll be no possibility of having a post u.k. u.s. trade deal of course that's something that the u.k. is severely banking at this point in time but as far as trade talks go then between
2:24 pm
the u.k. and the e.u. over the last few weeks over the summer there's been very very little wiggle room if seen a complete stalemate position and of course this certain controversial political stunt from the u.k. will only add fuel to the fire. 5 year old black boy in the united states state of colorado has received a police visit and also been suspended from school for playing with a toy gun during an online class. displayed his neon green zombie hunter pistol for just a few seconds while sitting at home during a class conduct advise. his teacher reported him to the school principal and called the police without contacting the child's parents as i was suspended for 5 days and officers reportedly threatened to file criminal charges graham mountain school has defended its actions citing safety rules. we follow a school board policies when we are in person learning or distance learning we take the safety of our students this stuff very seriously safety is always our number one priority the american civil liberties union called the school's actions wrong
2:25 pm
on so many levels it said the criminalization of black youth in schools needs to stop many people on social media accuse the school of racism political activist anthony rogers wright says the reaction was not only a warranted it also put the boy's life at risk every day we are in insists a patient police shooting an unarmed black person whether it's in the back an unarmed child resting in our child whatever it is this this child's life was literally put in danger the fact that the teacher called the police before the parents makes no sense whether it's our child when our child is sick we always call the parents before calling you know the ambulance unless it's a critical emergency but again in this case it was clearly. defined that the the gun was a toy gun i mean it had writing on it that indicated that this was not a weapon of mass destruction or
2:26 pm
a weapon that could kill anyone and in that case the teacher not only failed the parents not only failed the student but also the entire school system because other parents are going to be wondering if they have to be concerned especially black brown and indigenous parents if they have to be concerned about cops knocking on their door for the smallest of issues. ok that's how it looks from moscow this hour total change of time next we're off the road to russia to meet the real live how great is nurturing the wizards of tomorrow. new gold rush is underway in ghana thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich here's a good. as they are by those that work children are torn between gold and education my family was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which
