2:02 pm
partners have gone beyond all limits of decency in reasoning in fact they are now demanding that we confess it's such a mysterious story given that on the 27th of august we sent a request for legal assistance from the russian general prosecutor's office and still there is no wants or we don't have legal grounds for launching a criminal case yet and that is why we are asked for legal assistance from the german side and the diplomatic standoff between moscow and berlin is intensifying russian prosecutors have said they've sent a 2nd request for legal assistance to berlin they're looking for explanations from doctors who've been involved with the treatment of alexina found information and copies of documents they've sent the 2nd request because their 1st request has gone unheeded according to the russian side they said that over 2 weeks ago what we've heard though regarding the competition of alexei in the family his his health prognosis is that he has improved the shot at a hospital here in berlin where he's being treated has said that he's now able to
2:03 pm
leave his bed for a short period of time because of the russian foreign minister has been giving an interview on russian t.v. in which he talked extensively about this case we heard him just a few moments ago giving one point he also said that western partners had cast doubt over the professionalism and skill of russian medical professionals who 1st came to the aid of the lexan of ali. some of our western colleagues route in the valley was saved by a miracle you know allegedly it was this new tourist nova chalk with a russian citizen managed to survive thanks to a happy coincidence what is this happy coincidence so the impeccable work for pilots doctors and paramedics is presented as a lucky coincidence they don't even admit that we acted in a proper way the western partners look at us with our guidance because we dare to doubt their correctness afresh. that's why the dow the professionals move are doctors and investigators he. will miss the lever of hard being set to make
2:04 pm
a trip to berlin on the 15th of september that is cancelled in the wake of this ongoing dispute over the election of ali and what happened to him the german governments were giving their side of vents on monday we heard from stephens i bet the government's official spokesperson saying that the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons the o.p.c. w. based in the hague had started their process of verifying germany's claims that nova chalk a nerve agent it being used to poison alexina valmy is desired but went on to say that those findings of being backed up by 2 separate laboratories one in sweden and one in france. board's reason france and sweden have carried out their investigations and confirmed the german evidence that means we now have 3 laborious research working independently from each other which of all reached the conclusion that the substance that caused the poisoning of mr no miley was
2:05 pm
a nerve agent from the not betrayal group. on tuesday russian president vladimir putin and his french counterpart emmanuel micron held a phone conversation to talk about the ongoing alexei navalny case a not conversation the russian president said that unfounded claims against russia were inappropriate and that the information that dated the evidence that russia requested must be shared with moscow also he said that russian doctors and experts have to be part of a joint investigation into what happened to mr novelli something they've been excluded from so far on cheese day there is a session of the european parliament where the e.u. response to germany's claims that alexei navalny was poisoned will be discussed sanctions have been talked about as a potential outcome from that parliamentary session however russia has said should sanctions be placed on them over this then there would be a response. just
2:06 pm
a card point russian investigators have been interviewing people who came into contact with mr novelli just before he fell sick police say they wanted to speak to 6 people they reached 5 of them but the 6th apparently fled to germany and are to correspondent raised the issue of a government news conference in berlin. the russian foreign ministry said the regarding the incident with vonnie they were able to interview all the people accompany him except for one the 6th marine a pitcher who avoided giving evidence by flying to germany which she went on her own not with nirvana does the federal government knows that marina pitch is in germany and how do you view her decision to avoid being interviewed by the russian investigators is. there in mind that it's i cannot tell you anything about this we must not forget that there was a murder attempt against mr nevada with the use of a poisonous substance but i can't tell you anything about the location of an
2:07 pm
individual. just as you know my focus off of. the 6 the russian investigators did interview the people accompanying this never only despite claims that they are not investigating 5 out of 6 of them assisted in the investigation and one avoided questioning and fled to germany shouldn't germany say yes we know marina have chick is in germany and assess why this person actively avoided questioning after all the other 5 allowed themselves to be questioned and the question to the interior ministry at the moment it is not easy for russian citizens to simply fly to germany was there any special permission that allowed me to enter germany. you know pm mukesh dissolution and a chance to come back and i am not familiar with this case and i will not speak about it. let's go live now to germany i'm happy 7 tell the solway a member of the countries the left the party joins us now good to see you let's
2:08 pm
pick up just on that aspect we were hearing on the program there russia has officially asked a question a woman who is traveling with alexa in the valley do you think germany should allow got to happen. well let's just listen again to what they sad moments ago in the press conference that is an absolute bombshell revelation that this mysterious 6 person miss patch is apparently in europe in germany possibly right now and that even though it is virtually very difficult virtually impossible without. measure to enter germany right knob because of covert 90. 4 russian citizen without a visa she apparently had no probable and we're hearing some reports that she
2:09 pm
actually flew on the same plane that transported mr nonviolently back to rolling so this is a very interesting revelation that is coming out as a result of the preliminary investigation that russian prosecutors are doing and we suddenly have to look into this case and of course if she is sure in germany then it is the responsibility of the german government as the state of you know all international respectful of international law to provide russian prosecutors with full access to her well that's my 2nd point because the prosecutors here in russia say they've made it a 2nd request for information legal assistance as well from germany on the development case as you may remember the 1st korea got no response what groans those bertalan have for withholding such data. well legally they
2:10 pm
stand on very thin rollin's to not provide that data because germany is a party to many international agreements that as well probably put the responsibility on the german government to provide this data and such cases and what they are saying is that they don't want to provide any medical data to patients without the patient's agreement but that is a very thin disguise for the real information because the question people asking is what kind of nerve 2 agent has been used they're just alleging the use of the agent the number chalk group but they're not saying what kind of chemical agent has been used what is the structural problem with up what has the laboratory of one of the they actually pulled out and this kind of information is what they should provide to the o.p.c. w. and to the russian federation something else that was pointed out by russia's
2:11 pm
foreign minister sergei lavrov is something we don't hear a lot in the mainstream media he said that mr of ali is still alive because of the work of russian doctors who 1st treated him fuck undermines the accusations being made against just your thoughts and not patient. yeah well it certainly seems crime weird why a state that apparently if you listen to the german minister wanted to kill it on so than would go to such lengths to such lengths a pilot makes an emergency landing and doctor that rash to the scene of the hospital and immediately administer the best available treatment that anyone in the world could have minister it was the best treatment and it saved him and this suddenly does not fit the story that the state was intent on killing this person quite the opposite the state apparently had a very large interest in keeping him alive and keeping him out of harm's way by
2:12 pm
what we now know a pet chicken particular is that she had close access to him and there are some reports that she actually provided a bottle laced with pies and german authorities and it was only in this bottle that they could actually identify not which hawk agent and not in the body of natalee himself and so this is the story that is currently making the rounds in germany that this woman has provided german authorities with a bottle and when did she get access to that bottle and why isn't the german side looking more into this one who i mean she had obvious access to so why isn't there more focus on this and there's very little right now in german media about miss patchett or those allegations or something will be closely following on the program and trying to get some clarification on the show on
2:13 pm
a solid a member of germany's the left party thanks as always. thank you. russia's president has called for a dialogue between the belorussian leadership and opposition to end the ongoing crisis in the country following august disputed election. president alexander lukashenko spent some 4 hours speaking together in the black sea resort of sorts r.t. correspondent frank a recap developments for us earlier. before this trip to tsotsi the official line from both sides was that the 2 leaders were about to meet to discuss cooperation but after more than a month of mass protests and the republic of belarus the obvious assumption was that alexander lukashenko was heading to tsotsi to seek support from his elder brother that's what he literally called vladimir putin a few weeks ago well we can at least say that the actual fact that alexander
2:14 pm
lukashenko was received by president putin as the head of the bell russian state and that they were discussing minsk moscow ties in the future is some kind of support clearly in the form of a confidence boost however unlike some of the scenarios predicted by the western media in the buildup to this the head of the russian government didn't say a thing about specifically providing some kind of help to end the protests in belo reuss by the way when early in the morning i was reading some of the forecasts for the summit by western media outlets i came across theories in which even the word addicks ation was used some were saying that the kremlin could use this meeting to even topple alexander look as schenkel or use the current weakness of the bell russian president to reach its own goals in bellerose however and contrast to that
2:15 pm
president vladimir putin made it clear when he was speaking just ahead of the meeting that moscow does not accept any outside interference especially from the west. we want the belorussians to handle their situation without any external assistance or pressure and co manner through dialogue with each other and come to a joint decision on how to move forward despite this we did hear from the bell russian leader that he does want to bring the. c.s.u. to an international level but only if it comes to moving on to some of the integration blocks which bell routes as part of for example the eurasian customs union or the so-called agreement on collective security these are some of the blogs that are made part of post soviet republics but we will talk about what's happening in belarus and meetings of the aeration economic community and collective security
2:16 pm
treaty organization and there are also things that's will come out within the commonwealth of independent states now despite mr look at being able to avoid the worst case scenario for him a complete nationwide strike and a full scale revolution protesters keep gathering in various cities across bellary every week and sunday saw massive marches all across the country and which hundreds of people were detained. for. if we take a step back how are the overall relations between valorous and russia well we do have to put all of this and context and used to go without saying that minsk is
2:17 pm
a top ally for moscow we remember that after the fall of the soviet union a number of agreements were signed between moscow and meant to form a so-called union state to somehow fall in the footsteps of the european union in terms of how the countries cooperate and get along there and moscow for all these years has been supporting deeper integration deeper ties however. when it comes to president alexander lukashenko judging by his rhetoric before the election in august especially we were able to understand that he's unhappy with how it was going in many ways and at some point he even called some russian official traitors but it seems now that he's seeking the russian government's support everything is going back on track and despite the difficulties we can point out quite a few joint projects that were carried out by the 2 countries including
2:18 pm
a nuclear power plant and bell roofs like i said minsk is part of some of the integration blocks on the post soviet territory and minsk is also heavily reliant on financial support for moscow and one of the latest steps that moscow made towards minsk was that it and now it's a $1500000000.00 loan for bella ruse while sitting right next to his bell russian counterpart the russian leader made it clear that moscow will remain committed to all 'd its agreements and promises. russia remains committed to all our agreements including those that arise from the treaty on the union street and the collective security treaty organization we see belarus as are closest allies and will of course fulfill all our responsibilities western countries have kept a close eye on what's happening and belarus what kind of reaction have we been
2:19 pm
thing to the crisis from them there are closest neighbors like poland to the waning a lobby and a stone up that have made some aggressive statements against mr lucas shan't go in fact with you a neo went as far as to recognize with. those rival in that vote as the legitimate leader of bella ruse but so far we have not seen any joint action by the european. union but on monday we heard from german diplomats that they are looking forward to some kind of set of sanctions jointly a grate on by the european union they want this to be announced within the next few days and that set of measures according to german officials should be against the people responsible for what they are calling election fraud and also repression. to look like there's no tomorrow just before the u.k.
2:20 pm
problems gatherings of more than half a dozen people to slow the spread of the farm. seemed wrong. wrong just don't. let me. get to see. this day become active. and engaged with equals betrayal. when so many find themselves worlds apart we choose to look for common ground. the world is driven by a dream shaped by. saying
2:21 pm
. we dare to ask. your back with authority international social gatherings in england scotland and wales are not limited to 6 people starting from monday the u.k.'s tightening restrictions amid a sharp increase in covert infections be so cold rule of 6 spawns larger gatherings both indoors and outdoors however there are exceptions with larger gatherings still
2:22 pm
permitted at work schools gyms places of worship police being given powers to crack down on all the offenders with potential fines of more than 3000 pardons on sunday 3300 people in the u.k. tested positive for coal but 90 a sharp increase compared with last month but the recent spike in cases feel to deter some revelers seeking to enjoy themselves ahead of them as our t. shirt the edwards dusty reports. well you would think it was new year's eve ok prior to the final of the football world cup to come monday the new rule of 6 restricting me tops of more than half a dozen people will be implemented meaning scenes like this will once again be afraid up down not sure if that's the kind of begins i mean it's a gate crashers brits a living up the last of freedom. the
2:23 pm
public was just about getting back to normal or as normal as coming they were told to eat out to help out the struggling hospitality sector leading to a very busy month of wining and dining told the travelers rules were locked and encouraged to get back into the office to kick start the economy when suddenly the u.k. decided to clamp down again on irenaeus the timing of it and says the exemptions causing confusion many brits upon seeing like it's the last orders oh wait it's sort of this yeah everyone's here tonight to to celebrate. all of us at the last night of great is don't tell us young people to go out and up front and then be like no you can't go out anymore it's that except i don't believe that what i just stated on the day when you really fear not over a release or a couple days after i think is a good trick how about don't have to train so it does not implement it doesn't mean that if you do i'm just going to take advantage of until monday and then i'll just make sure to stick to the rule or risk decided to include the 6 day 6 covering band
2:24 pm
just to stop birthdays from happening but i'll try to get only the full guru suits and that out here accordingly to the government when it's widely known that brits are house a 3rd party and so instead of can think each of gatherings many are just bringing them forward to this weekend for the covert infection rates growing again the heights of knock down illegal raves are going ahead as reckless fervor as local. the complete to be the high steps with the most us. in england for monday we're introducing the rule of 6. there is a real risk some members of the public will take advantage of the current situation
2:25 pm
this weekend as a party which. i used to organize raves i used to love race but i employ. who organize race to stop. well brits will seize any opportunity to pay the town brat but this really is the final farewell to a party well making an appearance for. let's bring you to the u.s. where yet another fatal police shooting has sparked street riots the instant happened in the state of pennsylvania several buildings and cars were damaged in the only risk in the city of london caster police fired tear gas after the croyde refused to disperse several arrests were made as well meanwhile police have released the body count video of sunday's shooting you may find the following
2:26 pm
images the stir being a man armed with a knife can be seen rushing out of the door and chasing a police officer during a side war with a knife before being shot did you this later identified as 27 year old ricardo knowles police say they had responded to a domestic disturbance call the officer has been placed on administrative leave and local authorities have issued a call for. some of those shooting has significant impact on the community as they're seen with the large number of goven on the streets however i am asking that all reaction but them birth as the investigation is ongoing. let's welcome onto the program betsy broughton or smith betts he's a law enforcement trainer and former officer as well in the video we saw a man chasing an officer doll in the street brandishing a knife surely the officer had no choice but to defend himself in that situation
2:27 pm
right. absolutely you saw how large the one thing is and also understand that this young man. is about to face or was about to face additional charges and he was going to go to court in the 1st week of october for stabbing 4 other people last year so this is a dangerous young man his family called the police said he was out of control release got there and he immediately starts chasing a police officer with that knife the officer is not only right to use deadly force but frankly obligated we are not suicidal police officers here in the united states we get to use force and it's unfortunate no officer ever wants to do that but that was the only choice in lancaster pennsylvania the video it's certainly not appeasing the protesters we saw muscles of people taking to the streets and gauging
2:28 pm
in quite a lot of bundled ism well is there any. any call for such behavior to ever be warranted that. now remember 2 nights ago we had to a las angeles county sheriff's deputies ambushed and they're both in the hospital hopefully they will recover but it's completely out of control now the the minute that the word of this shooting got out the rumors started 1st that he was very very young he's not he's 27 years old there is some rumor that he might be autistic regardless of his mental health he does not get to stand and kill a police officer when you read into the details as well it's sunday as if it's his sister who had called because he was brandishing a knife against his mother we don't know whether that's being clarified or not but there does seem to be a presumption in cases like this that the police are simply guilty how difficult betty does that make it for them to actually do their jobs in the climate. well
2:29 pm
it's in any extremely different difficult atmosphere for police in the united states right now no matter what we do even if we act completely lawfully like in this situation you're going to see riots and you're going to see violence and we're going to be told that we're killers of people of color have frankly it's childish it's ridiculous and i believe the american people are getting tired of it you know pennsylvania is a key state in our upcoming presidential election and i don't think this is going to be helpful for the democrats what to put public trust in how is it going to be restored when we're seeing time and time again incidents like this on reaction to it as well well what we're seeing is when you talk about public trust in these situations now we see that when the body cam comes out of the investigation is completed generally speaking the officers were right in their use of force but we have. anti fire and black lives matter here in the united states that are sending
2:30 pm
people immediately to these hot bed areas to engage in writing just finally do you think the situation that we're seeing it isn't going to get worse before it gets better i think it is going to get worse until the presidential election and then if donald trump is reelected you're going to see an incredible backlash by the left this is not about black lives it's not even about anti police it's about trying to change this nation and i think the american people frankly are fed up with it was good of you on the program thank you very much for your time betsy brother smith law enforcement trainer former u.s. police officer thank you for minder for up to the minute developments today and a whole lot more besides our twitter page as well worth a follow never a boring moment there.
