interests. ahead in the program. from washington amid reports the u.s. is arming in crimea. just after midday in san francisco 4 pm and polo 10 at night right here in moscow this september the 18th welcome to r.t. international i mean and. the office of russia's prosecutor general has requested sweden and fronts share their findings on the alleged nerve agent poisoning of kremlin critic alexina volley that's after moscow was left chasing its tail in efforts to see the test results which are said to point to novacek being used germany's directed russia to the global chemical weapons watchdog but the
3:02 pm
o.p.c. w. say it should talk to berlin with their excuses are completely contrived germany says it can't tell us anything in direct says to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons we've been to the o.p.c. w several times and they say talk to berlin we are ready to talk to anyone but not when in the absence of facts we are pressured into giving an account of ourselves on the basis of specific clearly formulated concerns we are always ready to have a professional conversation. russia insists it's doctors for no trace of nava chalk or any other poison when the volunteer was in their care moscow has repeatedly stressed its willingness to cooperate with germany in order to establish exactly what happened independent tests by france and sweden of all to confirm the presence of the nerve agent you've been looking at the latest controversy surrounding the
3:03 pm
case. alexina volley is recovering whatever it was killing his body is on retreat and the politician seems to be almost out of these woods so concerns over his health make room for concerns over what exactly happened and europe is demanding that russia aids the investigation installations arise which only the russian government can and must answer we continue calling us year to investigate this our demand is that russia urgently explain what happened well russia has already contributed by not letting alexina valmy die in the 1st crucial hours after the politician fell sick russia contributed by opening its airspace to a team of german doctors letting them visit russia contributed by eventually putting him on a german rescue plane allowing the value to be airlifted to berlin and by offering its medical data to german colleagues so now russia says the ball is in germany's
3:04 pm
court moscow current aid the investigation if it's kept in the dark on emerging evidence to the press with nothing at all all this is taking place against the backdrop of facts that our proposals to berlin to jointly sort out what happened i've been dismissed and a far fetched pretext that's hurdles are brought into the race because berlin starts playing a game of all take and no give russia can get the results of the expertise made in german labs since it will reveal too much of the german army's capabilities too much but only to russia's eyes apparently because berlin had no problem with sharing its data with almost 200 other nations member states of the o.p.c. w we are very negatively the fact that germany refusing to assist the russian law enforcement agencies secretly transferred no boundaries test data to its trusted partners it is clear that this was done with
3:05 pm
a political purpose. so that france and sweden would automatically confirm unfounded accusations against russia but wait russia is a member state of the o.p.c. w. and that means it finally has all the time in the world to scrupulously study everything the germany could find right or wrong the only thing that it actually means is that russia can hop on the merry go round of rejections because berlin tells moscow it can get everything from the o.p.c. w. and the o p c w saying the exact opposite bumping russia right back to berlin russia is in a loop which doesn't really help o.p.c. w.'s reputation with moscow as russia had previously accused the un back watch dog of becoming politicized by your p.c. don't you like so many international concessions it's always great to be subject to political pressure and that's critically from of course those the funded largely funded and that's largely the western powers we've seen with the p.c.
3:06 pm
to abuse role in investigating alleged chemical attacks in syria but its investigations have tended to ascribe blame has been riddled with inconsistences and problems that will not rise in independent investigation but that there appears to be scope for political interference and pressure to take close we saw a similar situation in respect to the scruple case where. it was very reluctant to share its information with russia in respect of it what do you have to discover in terms of chemical analysis and so on giving no access to evidence keeping waters murky playing every bureaucratic trick in the book this is how the e.u. is shutting out russia's investigators also raising the sanctions guillotine over the country almost like it wants no investigation from russia but in immigration
3:07 pm
admission of guilt. in the latest post on the vollies instagram account the video shows his teen searching his hotel room and told shortly after news had broken that he had fallen severely ill wearing surgical gloves they collect evidence in plastic bags which according to the post or past to the german authorities one of the water bottles they submitted was said to contain traces of nava chalk but one of the co-creators of the very nerve agent leonid brink means if it was used in the belly would never have made it to the plane he was traveling on . it would be found he wouldn't have been able to leave the hotel that's if it was normal junk and he really touched it or drank something 1st of all even in small or not very toxic doses provokes pupil contraction in such a way a person would be almost blind so could barely move so even with only very mild
3:08 pm
exposure he wouldn't have been able to get on a plane there are photos of him in the hotel in the plane in the russian hospital and yet we can't see any of the symptoms poisoning and novacek and not words to use for this case. richard that you would they definitely would get something they had just simple surgical gloves and that's it and also imagine a bottle that has traces of the substance on the outside it would be a very smart person who would try to fill a bottle with such a dangerous liquid and spill it all down the sides creating a dangerous situation for everyone. amid the fallout from the case calls have been mounting on germany to ditch the nord stream to gas pipeline project but the heads of east german regions have come to the defense of the joint venture with russia. the bad one is economically necessary force but it's also necessary that we stay
3:09 pm
together with the russian it's a project that plays a decisive role in the framework of altered energy and climate policy and therefore we've come to the conclusion that we want to carry on with it and to those that advocate closer ties with russia i say that the poisoning of alexei navalny with an advanced chemical agent is not a one off. nord stream too is a pipeline project which will pump russian gas to germany and then on to other european countries via the baltic sea when completed its around 90 percent there are no it will double the amount of gas flowing from russia to germany construction began in 28 days but has been halted a number of times with the us and some eastern european countries launching their objections washington slap sanctions on the project last year claiming it risks european energy security to give an example a port ton of sustenance itself threatened with crushing sanctions by american
3:10 pm
senators the locality has been playing a key role in supporting the pipe laying fleet involved in the extreme to its construction but the tons more locals alike remain defiant in the face of u.s. pressure give people the american snow also getting gas from russia and i don't find it very nice that they're trying to tell us what to do here the project missed a lot for the town it is a big thing it created a lot of jobs for locals and the town became a little more significant thanks to it and i want to see very clearly it's really seamless the way the united states is trying to manipulate german loss and european interests so the interests come out on top. homburg parliament member martin doul chair believes the severing of economic ties with russia would prove hugely detrimental most of all to eastern germany. yeah that was a big problem and i think. it also left on
3:11 pm
a line of the german government well and really. play a bit with the existence of the people in east germany because anybody who tries are stronger russia and these are friendly and these are very productive and i think the center of should listen listen more to that now and i think it's the wrong way and especially for the people in east germany and of this region so it will be a more herb bitter effect for west germany. russia is the mending immediate answers from the u.s. after an n.b.c. news report claim washington is providing weapons to ukrainian militants in crimea . unnamed use official speak about their country's support of terrorist activities in 3rd countries in this case these talks specifically about russia if that is true we demand that the us side clarify as to whether or not washington has directly or
3:12 pm
indirectly facilitated the is be you ukrainian security services in organizing terrorist attacks against the people of crimea the n b c report itself is actually about a completely different case about allegations that the russians secretly bribed or paid bounties to taliban fighters which killed u.s. troops in afghanistan moscow has firmly denied that anything like it is possible so the n.b.c. report cites a number of u.s. military officials and sources as well some of them are saying that there is no solid proof of that others are confident about the theory and this brings us to the part that really caught the attention of russian officials because down at the bottom of the read one of these sources is mentioning u.s. military aid for ukrainian fighters in crimea none the less current and former u.s. officials have said many cia officers and analysts came to believe
3:13 pm
a bounty program existed they concluded that the russians viewed it as a proportional response to the u.s. arming of ukrainian units fighting russian forces in crimea the source said you know these allegations are still quite murky you still try to piece piece of the puzzle together here but we do know the u.s. has been supporting ukrainian military quite openly over the wall tell you what ever since the conflict in southeast ukraine broke out ukraine has been heavily reliant on u.s. military aid and i'll tell you what the latest batch of that equipment that's part of the u.s. support which is worth $60000000.00 u.s. dollars and the one that included javelin anti-tank missiles was sent in june but this. it was just the latest in a serious of shipments and these shipments were also preceded by non lethal military aid all of this intended for the ukrainian forces that are fighting pro
3:14 pm
russian forces in east ukraine the procopio forces in that donbass region they comprise of proper ukrainian troops which is the army and also nationalist battalions but when it comes to climbing there is no military activity there the whole principle is under control of the russian army however infiltrators with ukrainian passports had previously been caught there by russian security forces for planning terrorist attacks so in this case some u.s. support for ukraine to fight the russians in crimea that's a completely different story and that's a real cause for concern in moscow so what about these allegations that russia actually offered bounties to taliban fighters who killed american troops in afghanistan well then going back to these claims about some kind of bribes by some kind of russian secret agents for taliban fighters they 1st surfaced in the new
3:15 pm
york times back in june but even the n.b.c. article that i began with starts with the words of the head of the u.s. central command who says that he doesn't have any solid proof to back this up for now and if we talk about the russian officials again they were firmly confident that this kid an be the case that all previously the russian foreign ministry surrogate said that russia would never stoop so low as to engage in such dirty tactics but we were accused of relations with the taliban if inducing them to carry out special operations against american troops or financial rewards. for its own interests and belief. i think it's beneath the dignity to suspect that russia could be behind such things by the way the pentagon had to deny these allegations because there was nothing to back them up on the taliban were also said it was completely
3:16 pm
false and we keep the news rolling here in our to international in 90 seconds and cutting stick with us. over the last 3 presidential election cycles there is clear evidence voters are attracted to the message of not interventionism and are very weary before and this is most certainly true in 2060 but his time in office is spotty at best now appears to embrace the same form as bush and obama i guess nothing will fundamentally change. seemed wrong but. just don't call. me. yet to shape
3:17 pm
out this day. and engagement because the trail. went something and find themselves worlds apart. just to look for common ground. welcome back. he will establish a new presidential commission in a bid to promote patriotic and she cation dubbed a $1776.00 commission its main task would be country in the quote an american ideologies which mr trump claims are being used to indoctrinate young americans in schools and one area in particular was singled out by the president critical race
3:18 pm
theory. the 1619 project and the crusade against american history as toxic propaganda the left wing writing and many other direct result of decades of leftwing indoctrination into our schools critical race theory mentioned there has been one of the driving forces behind the recent black lives matter protests rooted in marxism it examines american society through the lens of race law and power with the term white supremacy frequently mooted earlier donald trump ordered its removal from the training of federal employees however the theories proponents say it's all about righting the wrongs of the past. with some arguing it wasn't part responsible for the honor he recently seen in the streets and others claiming it's an honest again systematic racism deep rooted in the us society it's
3:19 pm
clear critical race theory is a bone of contention so let us put the issue up for debate let's bring into the program on for me roger's right to leo rivera editorial director for reactionary times dot com we kick off with you 1st many say this idea itself is inherently racist as it essentially judges individuals based on nurse skin color when you think of martin luther king for instance you know he didn't want his children judged by the color of their skin by the content of their caracter it's very much at all without premise is it not. i would actually disagree with that i think that we have to be careful what when we evoke dr martin luther king who was a radical as dr cornel west every january brother martin is deodorize unsanitized we do want people to be judged by the content of their character but this idea of
3:20 pm
colorblind list. errantly raises i'm a black man and that is what people are going to see in this is side of the person foremost so i don't want to be judged just because i'm black but to say that my skin color doesn't prevent me from having justice and doesn't prevent me from not being scared for my life every time i interact with a police officer is. for. black people who died at the hands of white police officers we seen in the last number of months suddenly reeses a many will argue is still present in american society it's scrapping this training though a little rush perhaps modifying it is the best way. no i think that they should scrap anything that teaches critical race theory the fact of the matter is even if you talk about you just brought up the fact that yes blacks have died at the hands of white police officers but what about the whites that have died at the hands of white police officers the statistics don't really back up the narrative with this
3:21 pm
whole blacks are being hunted by the police it's ridiculous and this whole idea of critical race theory the only thing that it does is it gives people of color an excuse to try to not try hard and that's what the marxists want they want these poor people that they've created this generational poverty that has existed since the great society to continue and to continue to be perpetuated do these flaws arguments that america is this horrifically racist country when we have things like affirmative action in they talk about white privilege when there's 15000000 white people living in america right now below the poverty line that's almost double the 8000000 black people that are living below the poverty line so you go talk to the old white people about their eyes. i'd like to get something in and i appreciate those comments and unfortunately they're not rooted in truth the fact that no they are a lot of truth there is just if i ask you i think if i could finish my star and if
3:22 pm
i could finish my statement the fact that there are so many poor white people is due to white supremacy white supremacy also description but also a way that i could just finish my statement to that end yes there might be more white people in power verty in number but per capita based on the percentage of the of this country of their population per capita there are more poor black people than white people so get your facts straight and then whatever yeah he wants to blame the liberal it for that also i could finish my point is that you reference affirmative action what we know is that the biggest beneficiaries of affirmative action are in fact white women so i think that like this is why mr rivera is actually demonstrating and been a katie exactly why we do. critical race theory to get rid of this ignorance which of course contributes to the spread and increase of white supremacy let me make a point here 1st off the reason that communities of color and this includes hispanic people myself you know i grew up in the inner city and predominately black
3:23 pm
that's a great and noble cause and it doesn't mean that you're not whites or i nor let me let me go ahead is not a rat's addictively also not more white has a fantasy you know you guys are all guys are grasping at straws let me make a point here let me break a point here it was the liberal left they created this and it's an unfortunate state of affairs they destroyed the black family structure back in 196474 percent of black children were born into intact families nowadays it's below 16 percent and it's because of the great society it's because of big government saying that you don't need to maintain a family structure as the government will take care of you and unfortunately that's what's created the generational poverty in the black and hispanic communities ok i'm going to let me just put this point to you you can also answer that as well but donald trump mention critical race theory as at the structure of force in today's society from mentoring violence in many cases it's not just the theories that
3:24 pm
a lot of people on the streets that we have seen rioting sometimes losing their backing up their actions by this theory that way it's destructive. absolutely i mean i just went on for the answer yeah yeah i mean i think that it's really really interesting that we attribute rioting with black and brown and indigenous people who are fighting for their liberation 1st and foremost when white men did it dressed up as native americans in the boston tea party that is probably that's the history that this race is not how it's honest i did not mention i did not mention race i just said that people provide us and you're right they say there were a lot of white people out doing writing looting and violence as well and we are very happy that this summer we have seen an influx of white people joining the fight for black brown and indigenous liberation they are our comrades and we are we welcome them thank you to all the way people who are doing that with us in the
3:25 pm
streets that said what i do want to say that it is like largely attributed to black people all the time that's a problem but when white people dress up as native americans at the boston tea party that's part of american exceptionalism and that is the type of history that this fascist racist president once taught in school is to indoctrinate our nation more with a theory of critical white supremacy theory that's what he's after that's what this is all 'd about we need to be an honest and treat this country was stolen from indigenous people through brutal land theft and genocide from a lens of white supremacy and it was billets off of the backs of stolen people from africa including forced rape into come to tea of african women to create more property for white men and women at that was also a roman you know i know you are you i know you want to respond but just as you do also could you could you maybe pick up on the point about leveling the playing field does it not need to be done some way. no i don't i think that right now
3:26 pm
nothing that happens you know what anthony is referring to that happened hundreds of years ago is not applicable today we have a constitution that applies to a couple eyes to every man woman and child today regardless of sex race creed religion everybody's protected with the same rights under the constitution in fact people of color get special deference because of programs like affirmative action listen you're living in the past and the i'm a hispanic american and i don't have these issues and i don't believe that i'm being that i need to fight for liberation and i'm a free man. can you tell me which amendment gives black granite indigenous people special treatment in the constitution if you're going to reference this document back it up with facts unless there's been a lot of things even trump has done it trump putting but i'm not for hannity zones whole predominately black and hispanic neighborhoods get special tax breaks to the middle of the country doesn't get it no you don't you don't know what's going on and you're misrepresenting history and you're living in the past you're literally
3:27 pm
living in the past anthony you're trying to be a constitutional scholar you're coming across as a constitutional dildo what i'm telling you also in addition to that ok the 1st step act which which actually cleared up a lot of the injustices in the in the criminal justice system which was instituted by joe biden president trump has done more for black english that i did then you have as a dent in the lab ok i don't know that i can i mean just put a point to anthony let me just put a point and i'll let you have the final word and a moment to do. i want to just talk about the money being made when you've got programs going to businesses going to universities the funding of you know you've got c r t people saying that this is a money making exercise for some going into say you're inherently racist and getting paid to do that does dot give you pause for thought on for me. i have no problem with people who are actually trained and skilled in racism to train people
3:28 pm
in being anti racist because we know there is no such thing as not resist you're either racist or you're in she raises it's just same thing with patriarchy i have no problem with people who are trained in c.p.g. darkie training patriarchal men on how their actions are harming women and themselves quite frankly we have to understand that if we're not they were afraid of using words like white supremacy that means we are afraid of the truth i have a lot of empathy for mr rivera because it appears that he's afraid of the truth you go to places like germany where they did atrocities to jewish people i myself i'm jewish so listen not about so all of my jewish sisters and brothers in germany had a truck the truth and reconciliation program they're not trying to hide from their past they are trying to learn from it ok we're actually just regular race running out of time julio the last 20 seconds to you ok critical race theory is inherently racist i know that anthony is trying to misrepresent that but the fact of the matter is that people who say that all lives matter are racist and try to pull one
3:29 pm
group above the other that's the definition the definition the opinion meat of what racism actually is spirit stuff is black lash out at black like that about supremacy it's about equality ok a pleasure to have you both on the program one for me rogers right political activists who know river editorial director for reactionary times dot com thank you both thank you so much live from moscow this is our team to national more great programs get going in a moment do stay close. a new gold rush is underway and. thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields hoping to strike it rich here's the book. as by those that work
3:30 pm
children are torn between gold. my family was very poor i thought i was doing my best to get back to school which side will have the strongest appeal to. join me every 1st week on the alex salmond show and i'll be speaking to guest of the world of politics sport i'm sure. i'll see you then. i. will welcome to.
