a count of ourselves but on the basis of specific clearly even when he was in there . with we're ready to talk to anyone we want not. the facts and we're pressured to get russian doctors found no trace of nava chalk or any other poison when he was in there occur moscow has repeatedly stressed its willingness to cooperate with germany in order to establish exactly what happened independent test as we say by france. upand and europe is demanding that russia aids the investigator urgently explaining what happened well russia has already contributed by not letting alexina valmy die in the 1st crucial hours out of these woods so concerns. that russia aids the investigation then this questions arise which only the right. russia contributed by opening its airspace to a t.

oct as letting them visit russia contributed by eventually putting him on a german allowing the valley to be airlifted to berlin and by offering its medical data to german colleagues so now russia says the ball is in germany's court moscow current aid the investigation if it's kept in the dark on emerging evidence to the press with enough when it all all this aching 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 pretax 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 assess 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 we assess 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 a political purpose so that france and sweden would automatically only and the your p c w saying the exact opposite bumping russia right back to bell confirmed berlin's unfounded accusations against russia but o.p.c. w.'s reputation wedo many could find right wrong the only thing that it actually means is that russia can help on the merry go round of rejections because berlin tells moscow. saying the exact opposite bumping russia right billy international commands actions it's always great to be subject. of course there's the fund it
5:05 pm
largely funded that's largely the western powers we've seen with the p.c. to abuse role in interest to go to alleged chemical and to share its information. what do you have to discover in terms depend it's just a question but that there appears to be scope for political interference and pressure to take close we saw a similar situation expect to the case where it was very. action with russian owners be sheeting admission of guilt it all off now in the latest post on novell the sensor graham account of video shows his team that best to gate is also raising the sanction mission from russia but an integration admission of guilt igor said i'm off now in the latest post on novell the sensor graham account a video shows his team searching his hotel room and thompson shortly after news had

broken that he had fallen so authorities one of the water bottles. there is of the very nerve agent leonid. if it was used in the bell us to the german authorities one of the water bottles they submitted was chalk but one of the co-creators of was used in the belly would never have made it to the plane he was travelling on. it would be found he wouldn't have been able to leave the hotel that's if it was normal jock and he really touched it or drank something 1st of all the. doses provokes pupil contraction in such a way a person would be almost blind so could barely move so even with no been able to get on a plane there are photos of him in the hotel in the plane in the russian hospital
5:07 pm
and yet we can't see any of the symptoms and not words to use for this case. we joked that you would definitely would get something be of key east german regions have come to the defense of the joint venture with russia really it all down the sides creating a dangerous situation for everyone. or amid the fallout from the case calls have been munching for germany to ditch the nord stream to get. the bad one is economically necessary force but it's also necessary that the with the russian it's a project that plays a decisive role in the framework of altered energy policy and therefore we've come to the conclusion that we want to carry on with it and to those that closer ties with russia i say that the poisoning of alexei navalny was an advanced chemical agent is not a one off just to lay it all our north stream too is
5:08 pm
a pipeline project which will pump russian gas to germany and then on to other european countries via the baltic sea when completed and it's a raw 90 percent there are no it will double the amount of gas flowing from russia to germany construction began in 2018 but has been whole through the number of times with the u.s. and some eastern european countries lodging their objections washington slowed soldiers on the project last year claiming it risks european energy security. or the example the german portanova doesn't it says found itself threatened with crushing sanctions by american senators the locality has been playing a key role in supporting the pipeline fleets involved the north stream to his construction but the locals to remain defiant in the face of u.s. pressure. good she told them merican celso getting gas from russia and i don't find it very nice that they're trying to tell us what to do here. to fit in
5:09 pm
the project meant so much for the town it is a big thing it created a lot of jobs. and the town became a little more significant thanks to it and i want to see very clearly it's really seamless the we the united states is trying to manipulate german law so european interests you should that are your interests come out on time flows in an affordable well hamburg parliament member martin dollar told this program that he believes the severing of economic ties with russia would prove hugely detrimental to eastern germany yeah there is a big problem and i think. it also looks on a line of the german government well and the. play of the existence of the people in east germany because anybody that tries are stronger russia and piece of friendly is very productive and i think the central should listen listen more to that now and i think those are all away and especially for the people in east
5:10 pm
germany of this region it will be more bitter effect for west germany. to another every headline stories today russia's demanding immediate answers from the u.s. after an n.b.c. news reports claim washington is providing weapons to ukrainian militants in crimea . unnamed use official speak about their country's support of terrorist activities and counties in this case these talks specifically about russia if that is true would demand that the us side clarify as to whether or not washington has directly or 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
5:11 pm
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 the 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 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 still talk of peace 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
5:12 pm
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 the 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 russian forces in east ukraine the pro q. 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
5:13 pm
however infiltrators with the 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 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
5:14 pm
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 rules or military bands which for its own interests in the 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 just as there was nothing to back them up on the telly but also said it was completely false. return. to israel because it was the 1st country to reimpose full restrictions nationwide corona virus infections. right.
