w says it should talk to berlin now the office of russia's prosecutor general has requested sweden and france the 2 countries germany had sent of all these softballs to set the findings. but look absolutely their excuses are completely contrived germany says it can't tell us anything and direct this to the organization for the prohibition of chemical weapons we've been to the a.b.c. w several times and they say. we are ready to talk to anyone but not when 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. rusher insists doctors found no trace of the chalk when i found it was in their care moscow has repeatedly stressed its willingness to cooperate with germany in order to establish exactly what happened in the bend in tests by france and sweden confirms the presence of the nerve agent igor style of

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 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 the far fetched pretexts 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 or b 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
9:05 pm
trusted partners it is clear that this was done with 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 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 bag watchdog of becoming politicized by your p.c. don't you like so many international commands actions it's always good to be subject to political pressure and that's critically from of course those the fund
9:06 pm
it largely funded that's largely the western powers we've seen with the p.c. to abuse role in investigating alleged chemical attacks in syria but its investigations have tended to ascribe blame have been riddled with inconsistent says 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 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
9:07 pm
the country almost like it wants no investigation from russia but an integration admission of guilt. the latest post on the van is instagram account evidence shows his team searching his hotel room in tomsk shortly after news had broken the he had fallen severely ill wearing surgical gloves they collected they collect evidence in plastic bags which according to the post were past the german authorities one of the water bottles they submitted was said to contain traces of lava chalk but one of the core co-creators of that very nerve agent leonard rink claims if it was used now found he would never have made it to the plane he was travelling on. valmy wouldn't have been able to leave the hotel just asked if it was normal job and he really touched it or drank something 1st of all even in smaller not very toxic doses provokes pupil contraction in such
9:08 pm
a way of your person would be almost blind so you could barely move so even with only very mild exposure it would never 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 of poisoning and novacek and not worse to use for this case. it's just that you wouldn't get rid of it definitely would get something they had just simple search blocks 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 nevada case calls have been mounting for germany to ditch the no stream to gas pipeline projects but the heads of of key east german regions of comes the defense of the joint venture with russia. the bad one is economically necessary force but it's also necessary
9:09 pm
that we stay together with the russians 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. nor 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 it is around 90 percent there now it will double the amount of gas flowing from russia to germany construction began in 2018 but has been wholesale a number of times with the u.s. and some eastern european countries launching their objections washington slapped sanctions on the project last year claiming it risks european energy security an example the german port town of assassinates has found itself threatened with crushing sanctions by american senators the locality has been playing
9:10 pm
a key role in supporting the pipe playing fleet evolved in north stream to its construction but the town's mayor and residents remain defiant in the face of u.s. pressure. she called them american cells to getting gas from russia and i don't find it very nice that they're trying to tell us what to do here. it is a big thing it created a lot of jobs. and the term became a little more significant thanks to it and i want to see very clearly the device it's really she really is the we the united states is trying to many plea german laws and european interests. come out on time. before the parliament member martin doul believes the severing of economic ties with russia would prove hugely detrimental to waste in germany. yeah that is a big problem and i think. it also left on the line of the german government of
9:11 pm
wealth respect and they 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 central should listen listen more to that and i think it's are all away and especially for the people in east germany and all those regions it will be a more bitter effect for west germany. russia to mount immediate answers from the u.s. after n.b.c. news reports claimed washington's 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 indirectly facilitated the is be you ukrainian security services in organizing terrorist attacks against the people of crimea the n
9:12 pm
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 a bounty program existed they concluded that the russians viewed it as a proportional response to the u.s.
9:13 pm
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 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 probe of forces in that donbass region they comprise of proper ukrainian troops
9:14 pm
which is the army and also nationalist battalions but when it comes to climate there is no military activity there the whole principle is under control of the russian army 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.
9:15 pm
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. to carry out special operations or use as a measure of troops or financial rules of the military band was going to squeeze mood interests in those least. i think it's only through dignity to suspect that russia could be behind such things by the way the pentagon had to deny these allegations here so there is nothing to back them up and the taliban were also said it was completely false. the u.s. supreme court has confirmed that judge ruth bader ginsburg has died of cancer at
9:16 pm
the age of $87.00 should be the oldest sitting judge serving as such since $993.00 she was just the 2nd woman to be nominated to the u.s. supreme court and will be remembered as an iconic champion of liberal and women's rights her passing means a battle will now play out between the democrats and the republicans out of november's presidential vote something donald trump will take the rare opportunity to nominate a more conservative mind as her successor as supreme court judges consider for life or until they retire judge ginsburg sadly passed the she was undergoing chemotherapy for a recurrence of pancreatic cancer earlier this year the statements that she died at home surrounded by family. yeah but to stem rising coded infection rates israel's anted a 2nd national locked down it's coming to force it right at the start of the jewish new year and is set to last 3 weeks has not gone down well with an already pandemic
